The Masters Title.

Professor Key when head master of
q large London school was one of the
most genial gentlemen that ever filled
that position. He was fond Of encour-
aging fun in his boys and was not I'M
willing to recount occasionally during
class time when anything prompted it
the manners and customs of countries
he had visited On one occasion he
was telling his class about Spain and
said:
do you know, boys, that when a
man attains to eminence there he is
not called sir but is given the title
OF 'doR'T'
One of the boys here called out:
''Then, suppose, sir, they would
call you Don Key?"
The gravity of the class was COM
pistely upset for the remainder Of the
afternoon.-StrandM Magazine.

Annual Report of the Federal Conn
missioner Is Alarming to
Anglers.
SOME KINDS ARE DISAPPEARING
Greed Said to Have Destroyed the
Sturgeon on East Coast-Vast
Output of Hatcheries.

"The most serious condition now
confronting the American fishing indus
try is the failure OF the States to afford
adequate protection to migratory fishes
in State and interstate waters" This
is the serious note of warning sounded
by George NJ. Bowers, United States
Fish Commissioner, in his annual re-
port. Mr.. Bowers graphically depicts
the great destruction wrought to GER
tain species of fish and make an ear
nest appeal for their preservation.
Pointing to the history of the New
England salmon fishery as a warning,
the Commissioner declares that some
Of the States seem yet absolutely indif-
ferent to the crying needs of fisheries
for species of similar habits, whose
obliteration, he says, is certain unless
radical corrective measures are taken.
Mr.. Bowers states that the fishes most
in need of consideration are the shad,
the striped bass and the sturgeon on
the Atlantic coast and the salmonS in
the Pacific States.
The disappearance of the sturgeon
from nearly every east coast river Mr..
Bowers states, 'shows how greed and
Indifference may in single generation
destroy valuable fishery"
The report shows that the bureaus
hatcheries in 1908 yielded 376,OOO,OOO
more fish than in any other year and
delivered about 45S.OOO,OO0 eggs to
State and foreign hatcheries. The total
output was over 2S71, 100000 eggs and
fish, of which over 2,4OO,OO0OOO were
fish.

WhistIer's odd Ways.

Lord Redesdale once gave descrip-
ton of Whistler's methods to meet
ing in London in support Of memo
rial to the great artist. He was paint
ing, he said, portrait of a lady.
Whistler took up his position at one
end of the room with his sitter and
the canvas at the other end. For q
long time he stood looking at his model,
holding in his hand a huge brush full
OF color, such a brush as a man would
use to whitewash a house. Then he
rushed forward and smashed the brush
full of color into the canvas. Then he
ran back, and forty or fifty times he
repeated this. AT the end of that
time there stood out on the canvas a
space which exactly indicated the fig
ure, the form and the expression Of
the sitter. There was a pathetic story
attaching to the picture. The bailiffs
were in the house when the picture
was finished. That was quite a COM
mon occurrence, and Whistler only
laughed, but he went round his studio
with a knife and deliberately destroyed
all his canvases, including this picture,
which was to have been his (Lord
RedeSdale's) Dundee Advertiser.

To Increase Freight Rates.

Formal notice has been placed on file
with the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion by the Trunk Line Association, COM
posed of railroads east of Pittsburg, by
the Central Freight Association, compos-
ed of lines between Pittsburg and the
Mississippi and by the Transcontinental
Freight Bureau composed of roads west
of the Mississippi, that rates will be adj
vanced in amounts which will average
about 10 per cent from east to west, and
in the opposite direction from 3 to 90
per cent. Also the rail and water lines
from Atlantic to gulf ports will post an
advance of from 3 to 10 per cent. These
Southern and Southwestern railroads have
had increases in effect since Aug. 1. The
Interstate Commerce Commission has re-
quested the freight associations to defer
effectiveness of the increase, as it is in
formed that commercial bodies wish to
make formal protest. Many indignant
shippers have wired the commission of
their intention to fight the increase.

Man Famous Criminal Makes
His Bow as an Evangelist.
Pat Grove, whose criminal career is
known throughout the world-Crowe,
the ex-cOnvict, outlaw and kidnaper-
made his debut as an evangelist and
declared to an audience in Evanston, a
suburb of Chicago, that he had sim
cerely reformed. Grove preached a
veritable sermon to an assemblage Of
men and women under the auspices Of
the w. G. 7. u. Prison Reform League,
and grew eloquent in plea to citizens
Of the land to aid in prison reform and
stop the manufacture of criminals in
reform schools and penitentiaries.
Grove, a few years ago facing re-
volver bullets and fleeing from police,
before that a robber and inmate of
prisons, stood up before his audience
and talked like he meant what he said.
He talked fiuently, determinedly, force
fully and smoothly. True, he explained

price of His treason.

Benedict Arnold died in London June
IA, 1901. His life after his treason was
a most unhappy one. He was avoided
by men of honor and on many occa-
sions deliberately insulted. He re-
ceived a considerable sum Of money
from the British government and made
several unsuccessful attempts to en-
gage in business in British America
and the West Indies and finally re-
turned to London, where he died in
obscurity. His second son, born in
1880, entered the British army in 1913,
served with credit in many parts Of
the world and three years before his
death in 1854 was made a lieutenant
general-Household Companion.

KILLED BY OIL WELL FUMES.
Das BOGUS, Mexico, and Country
Around Scene of Queer Affection.


Around Scene of Queer Affection.
Fumes so strong that all metals in a
town sixty-five miles away are turning
black, buzzards, parrots and other birds
are dying in great numbers, and the
eyesight of many people far away is
affected, are announced as among the
results of the great flow of the Next
can oil well at Dos Becas, Mexico.
Since the recent fire there, which, as
reported at the time, consumed several
million barrels OF oil during its almost
two months continuance, the best en-
cheering skill on both sides of the
Mexican United States boundary line
has been engaged in the effort to con-
troll the flow and conserve the oil.
Immense earthen reservoirs and dikes
have been built, but the oil passed over
these with ease and spread over the
laguna for several miles. Men and
animals, reports Consul Griffith at
TampicO, are dying from the effects OF
the noxious gases constantly thrown off
in great quantities by the wells. OZul-
uama, town in Vera Cruz state, seven
leagues distant, and Tampico, sixty-five
miles distant, are experiencing the
blackening of metal from this cause,
and all ships entering Tampico from
Vera Cruz and passing near the well
show the effects of the poisonous gases.
Consul Griffith says it has been au-
thoritatively reported that two labor
ers with ten mules were exposed to a
current of the deadly fumes at a dis
lance from the well and were instantly
killed. The Diaz government has sent
to the well 300 sappers to assist the
company in protecting the lives and
property of the people living and work
ing in that neighborhOod.

STRANGER STAYS STUDENT.
Man Enters House of Rich Woman's
Relative and Kills Youth.

Man ENTERS House OF INCH WOIudAS
Relative and Kills Youth.
Van Dwight Sheldon, an engineering
student in the junior class at New York
University, was shot to death after
struggle at 9:15 o'clock Wednesday
morning in the cellar of the home OF
Charles III. Snow, dean Of the school
of arts and sciences of the university
in New York City. While dying he
gasped out an incoherent statement
whose purport seemed to be that he
had been killed by a strange man who
was seeking Miss Helen Gould.
Dean Snow is married to a cousin Of
Miss Helen Gould, and Miss Gould has
been in the habit of visiting her cousin
and remaining over night. There was
report that Miss Gould was in the
house Tuesday night, but this the dean
denied. He said, however, that the in
truder probably thought that the house
belonged to Miss Gould, that she was
in it and that he went there with the
idea of getting money.
Sheldon, who was "a years DID, was
living with Dean Snow and helping
him about the house. The young man
lived three hours after he was shot.
When found his wrists and ankles were
bound. Only fragmentary story OF
the tragedy could be drawn from the
dying boy, and he expired while strug-
Cling to make an ante-mortem state
ment to Coroner Macdonald in the
Fordham Hospital. The assailant made
his escape in spite of searching parties
of hundreds of students, mounted POI
lice and the reserves of the University
Heights station.
Young Sheldon said that just as he
approached the furnace man stepped
out and said: "Is Miss Helen Gould
in this house?" "No,' replied the star
tied student. els this her house?"
''NO," repeated the young man, picking
up the furnace shake for a weapon.
''YOu lie!" cried the man, springing at
the boys throat. Then began the strug-
gle which the dying young man sought
in vain to describe. 1t was ended by
a shot that penetrated the left side Of
the abdomen, passed through several
organs and lodged in the spine The
police were unable to find traces of an
intruder and were inclined to call it a
case of S11icido
