Fishing Season Nearing the End.

The fishing season on the Potomac is
drawing rapidly to close. The receipts
of herring have fallen off largely and all
that are now coming to It's market are
from the nets at Fairy Landing shore
and from the OILERS and trap-net fisher
men along the river. The receipts of shad
are very light and amount to only a few
hundred each day. The packing houses
on the wharf have put up full supply
Of herring. but a few are still being cut
for packing and for shipment all over the
country, salt Potomac herring being re-
garded as luxury. particularly in tne
country districts of the west. While the
catch of herring during the season was
up to the average. the catch OF shad was
small but the fishermen who were for
tunate enough to get shad in their nets
received good prices for them. Financial
ly the season is said to have been much
better than In 1907.

Charming Couture.

THE Greek coiffure is the most charm
ing dressing seen today. although
the very low and very high are not with
out some favor. Classical features look
best with the simple front parting. full
roll above the ears and the Psyche knot,
mode which the younger set of society
is making very popular. while the modi-
fled Greek dressing with soft curls and
puffs forming large knot surrounding a
Psyche of moderate size is adopted by
those of mora mature years, to whom the
simplicity of the Psyche dressing. with or
without the Greek band adornments, is
so eminently suited.

FIXING" BAILEY MAY GO
 TO WESTERN LEAGUE

Selma. June 17.-(SpeciaL)-It is very probable that Lem c. Bailey. who is better known throughout the South ern baseball circuit as King" Bailey, will leave Selma the latter part of the week for Omaha, where he will take a position as umpire in the Western League.
 MT. Bailey has been in correspond ence with President N L. o'Neill of the Western League and that mogul seems to be anxious to secure him up- on his staff of umplres.
 Bailey received a telegram from President O'Nelll a few days ago offer ing him a berth as umpire but there Is a hitch of a few dollars In salary which will probably be strengthened out and MT. Bailey will leave for the North west to assume his duties.
 King" Bailey is we'll known in baseball circles throughout the South and at one time was considered one of the greatest left-handed pitchers in the country. During the past few years he has made Selma his home and during that time has held positions as umpire in both the Southern and Cot- ton States Leagues.

He didn't give base on balls, and hit only one man. He struck out eight batters. which Is far above the Iron Mans average, as his usual way of working is to put 1t over and make them hit it.

Twice they were checked by the play Known as the "McGinnity sacrihce killer '' mapped out by the Iron Man and Jack Dunn when they played together in Brooklyn.
