and two bluefish.
The boats from Acker's at Sc
warren yesterday landed an average
of twenty-five weakfish each, besides
fuke and cells. Edward Simonson
and Chris Peterson, two of the best
known fishermen there, claim that
from now on fishing will be all right.
Fish are in deep water and put up
a good fight.
Mrs. M. Gross reports from Key
port that weakfish was biting there.
Captain Hyer and F. Fallon, of
Brooklyn, were off the Gross land
ing on the flats Monday and landed
twenty beauties. Tuesday the cap
tain went out with M. LoZier, of
Brooklyn, and caught twenty-eight.
George Moser, of Elizabeth, and a
friend caught eight. Captain Hyer
went out alone Wednesday morning
and came in with twenty-three. He
used shrimp for bait.
Rev. 0. E. Braune had a party of
friends out fishing Wednesday and
when he returned to Willett's boat
house at Morgan's Station, they ex-
hibited twenty-five weakfsh, not one
of which weighed less than two
pounds. They caught the fish while
anchored near the black buoy that
marks the south channel off South
Amboy. This buoy is about 150
yards from the Great Beds Light
house.

TIME OF HIGH WATER.
Romeo Not Taken Seriously.

Juliet was only fifteen years old, but
she thought she was quite grown up.
One evening, says Mrs. 4. "A. Pryor in
"My Day." she was receiving on the
moonlit veranda a young man caller.
He, too, it seemed, considered himself
grown up. The anxious youth was
moved to seize the propitious hour and
declare himself. Juliet wished to an
swer correctly and dismiss him with
out wounding him.
She assured him mamma would new
er consent.
A voice from w~ithin-they were sit
ting beneath her mothers window
settled the matter:
accept the young man, Juliet, II
you want to- I've not the least OBJ
lection. And let him u along home
now. Be sure to bolt the door when
you come in"
Evidently the mother had small re-
spect for boy lovers and wished to go
to sleep.

FLUKE FISHING
AROUND ISLAND

F1uke fishing is very good along
the Staten Island shore from the
White dental docks in Raritan or
Prince Bay down to Great Kills.
The beach is clear along that shore,
presenting a sandy bottom for the
fish to feed on. Thomas Duffy, of
Jersey City, and Herbert Williams,
of Staten Island, fished along there
Wednesday and by trolling caught
fifty-one in three hours.
Hundreds of dollars in good mate
rial for turtle soup is let go every
day by anglers that fish in Raritan
Bay. When fishing for weakfish or
bluefish the big sea turtle Is an an
.noyance to the angler, who hates to
pull a ffty-pound turtle to the boat,
as it usually means the loss of some
part Of the tackle. Fifty pounds is
a small turtle, but they run all the
way from fifty to 200 pounds. There
is no sport in catching them, as they
readily follow the hook to save
themselves any trouble. A fifty
pound turtle will make seven gal
Ions of soup, and some restaurants
ask thirty cents a plate for it.
Howard Tappan's boats at Boyn-
ton Beach are bringing in some fine
weakfish and bluefish. Frank Pc
terson ished there Wednesday and
caught eleven weakhsh and two
b1uefsh, and John Blumer tried it
yesterday and caught eight weakfsh

Rain is principally composed of

Rain always ZONES on Sunday after,

Wash day may be changed to any day

Sunday afternoon, however, cannot
