New York.-Two hobble skirts de-
layed for twenty minutes the sailing
of the Venezia of the Fabre line from
South Brooklyn for Marseilles.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Hoth, a newly
welded couple from Harrison, N. j.,
gave reception on board for friends.
At 3 o'clock, the time to cast off the
lines, Hoth guest who wore a black
velvet skirt of the contracted variety,
tried to descend the gangplank. She
slipped and fell and her skirt became
caught. 1t took several minutes to
liberate her.

The pier Is nearly quarter of a mile
long and Mrs. Linger could not walk

What Has Become of Trout and White
fish in Lake Superior Is Question
That Has Been Agtatine
Many Fishermen.

Marquette, Mich.-What has become
of the trout and whitefish In Lake Su-
perior?
This Is a question that Marquette
fishermen, In common with others on
the south shore Of the lake, are ask
Ing. Catches have never been SO light.
The result OF an all-day trip with one
of the fish tugs is often not more than
300 pounds of fish, which Is not enough
to pay the operating expenses. A half
ton Is considered an average catch on
a single day.
That Lake Superior. known as the
abode of the finest whitefish in the
world, is fast becoming fishless sea,
Is a startling statement, but that is
what the fishermen assert. The fish
ermen have been doing less and less
business each year for some time.
The tugs have been going farther and
farther out each succeeding season,
and now the nets are set as much as
1--WE hours run out OF Marquette, and
even in those unfrequented waters
there are very few fish.
The scarcity of fish In Lake Supe-
rior Is even more remarkable when It
Is considered that there are not more
than half dozen fish tugs on the
south shore. while no fewer than 126
tugs started out to fish on the south
shore of Lake Erie this season. OF
course there are many gasoline fishing
boats in addition to these. but their
numerical proportion on the two lakes
Is probably about the same as in the
case OF the steam tugs. There are
fewer steam tugs on Lake Superior
now than in the past No tugs are
now operated out of Ontonagon. while
last year there we're two.
In commenting on this condition OF
affairs, August Anderson, operator OF
the tug Columbia, stated that the rea-
son fishing was so much poorer In
Lake Superior than I'm the other great
lakes was that the government was
not replanting fast enough to take
the place Of those fished out each
year. Lake Superior is now declared
to be the poorest of the Great Lakes.
AS far as fishing is concerned. and
this IA the face OF the fact that II Is

COLONY IS UTOP|AN
Farmers Protective Association
Is Formed.
Community Open to Any White Man

Ideal Theory.

Oakland, Cal-Out of a desire on
the part of Charles Street, wealthy
rancher, formerly of London, now re-
siding on the Dingee estate in Pied.
mont, to benefit his fellow men. has
evolved the Farmers Protective and
Benevolent association, to be incor.
porated. The purposes of the cor
poration will be to conduct a co-opera
tive farm, primarily to raise poultry,
but also as home site for share
holders, who will be recruited from
all walks of life.
The land chosen for the model
town. is two miles east of Livermore.
and there are 200 acres available.
Each person entering into the scheme
Will be expected to purchase five
acres for his own use. The organiza-
tion will be conducted on the lines of
a town, with officers and public build.
ings, including an auditorium where
speakers will be invited to lecture.
The electricity for the farm will be
manufactured on the premises.
There will be a music conservatory
established, weekly dances will be
held and Fairgrounds prepared for the
children. A moving-picture theater is
also contemplated.
Any white man may become affil.
lated, and IL prominent people Of
Oakland vicinity are already interest
ed, including r. n. Scoville, son of
the president of the Scoville Iron
Works. A well-known Piedmont school
teacher, Miss Scheere, is another who
is active in the enterprise.
All the supplies of the community
will be raised on the ground, ire
spective of what is intended for gen
eral sale, and 1t is the purpose to pro
vide every inducement for those who
share in the proposition to make their
home within the confines of the farm.
An enthusiastic advocate of the en-.
terprise cites the present high cost
of living as sufficient reason for any
man in moderate circumstances, par.
ticularly those who work for their
daily bread adopting this method OF
providing a home for himself and fam.
lily in old age.
For, as he remarks. the Farmers
Protective association is essentially a
poor mans club, with the main object
of securing the advantages of the
wealthy class by giving those who are
interested in the scheme the opportu
mites through cooperation of devei
oping in their children any latent tai
ents, enabling them to do things that
they would otherwise be unable tc

Every one will be given full market
value for their products, and all will
be expected to contribute to the en-
tertainment and social amusement OF
the community. 1t is, in short, a

COLONEL JOHN
 TWEEDY'S BOOK
A History of Republican Ma
 tional Conventions

"A History of Republican National Conventions, 1S56-190S," is the title of a substantially bound and attrac- lively printed volume or 40S pages just published by Col. John Tweedy, of Danbury, it's author.
 In the Introduction, which was writ ten by Charles Hopkins Clark, editor of the Hartford Courant, the writer speaks of frequent inquiries that a.e made during political campaigns as to says: This volume by Colonel Tweedy is the only publication that I know of which brings together between two covers the answers to all these in quiries. The publication will be found preparing and publishing it Colonel Tweedy has rendered genuine pub- lie service for which all fortunate enough to possess it will. be increas- ingly grateful as the years go by.''
 The frontispiece of the volume is an excellent portrait of Gen. Joseph R. Hawley, deceased, of Hartford, to whom the volume is dedicated.
 The account of each convention is accompanied by portraits of it's nom inees for President and Vice Presi- dent and contains not only the de- tails of the convention itself, but brief biogra phical sketches of the nominees and much other information. As Ed itor Clark suggests, the value of the volume as history, considerable at the present time, will increase as years pass, until it becomes invalua- ble to generation of the future. .

whose sympathieS are naturally as deep for himself as for the next fei- low.
 By the time table it is 38 miles from Darien to New York and presumably just as far from New York to Darien. Our mourning friend rides, therefore, 76 miles a day and does this for 312 days in yeah That is he covers Z3,- TIP miles in year, and he has been doing this for $114, which, as we fig ure it, comes to AS, or trifie less than one-half of a cent a mile- John Jones, taking the same train at Dari- en and sitting next to our friend, pays 76 cents for the trip for which the commuter has been paying IS A cents and for which hereafter he is con- demned to pay about 21 A cents John Smith, going to New York from Hart ford, pays 76 cents for going over that part of the line at 2 cents a mile which the cOmmuter covers for about six-tenths of a cent mile.
 The commuter is the sharpest critic of the railroad and "cusses'' it from habit. What is the opinion of the occasional traveller toward the unhap- py but privileged commuter? Why should all the cuSSing be allowed to the commuter and why should the road get all of what there is? It strikes us a pretty strong case can be made for the non -commuter as com pared with his privileged seat-mate. Will he cuss the road or the com muter? Probably the road because itSis incorporated.
