The selectmen of the town are being much praised for treating the trolley project on Barnum avenue in a con- servatfve way. There can be no hurry. If permission was given to- morrow for the laying of tracks, the work could not begin for months. The company would take it's own time. and we know from experience how slow it is. And it is quite proper that Commissioner Macdonald should be al ts3e hearing, since the State has spent considerable money on the road, and should have representative to lock after It's interests.

to enjoy the sport may be seen out In
boats wrestling with the huge tuna on
a hook The tuna Is the big game fish
OF those waters In fact. the leaping
tuna is about as gamy as any fish
that swims. not forgetting the Florida
tarpon
Every year there is a tournament In
"Cat" island waters. where honors and

a tuna weighing PSI pounds has been

sea bass, Weighing 3S0 pounds with
the same frail tackle discounted the
tuna triumph Then there are in
southern California salt waters the
barracuda. the pompano, the sand
dab. the red snapper and other vari-
ties of small fish not common to other
localities, all of which make delicious
food and are In the market the year
around.
