BOWERS TO ADOPT
EUROPE'S METHODS
AT the Fisheries of This Coun-
try Of Which He is
Commissioners.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. ID
George NJ. Bowers, OF Martinsbur$,
United States commissioner OF fsh-
cries, returned to Washington the
night before Christmas in time to
spend the holidays with his family,
after having spent several weeks
travelling through European coun-
tries on business connected with the
bureau.
Mr., Bowers left some time in NO
yember for London to superintend
the sale of seals caught in Alaskan
waters during the last year and to
visit several fisheries in various
European countries with a view %
acquiring information to be used in
this country. The seals caught ~
Alaskan waters in the last year
brought far greater price than
usual and under the new regulations
netted the United States govern
ment more than a quarter of a mil.
lion dollars more than has been re-
celved from these sales in the past.
The governments profit this year
exceeded 100000 whereas in the
past 1t has gone but a little beyond
100000 at any annual sale.
Mr.. Bowers was exceedingly
pleased with the result of the sale
in London and also with his "trip,
through southern France and swftz-
erland, in both of which countries
he investigated the government
fisheries business, the methods of
propagation and distribution and
acquired many new ideas, which
will be put into practice in the
bureau under his charge.

Of Bad Blood.

HUNTINGTON, Dec. 27-News
reached here today OF Christmas
night tragedy at Spurlockvllle, in
Lincoln county, in which woodson
Miller, aged % years, was instantly
killed in a pistol duel with Anthony
Hager. The two men had had
trouble before, and when they met
on the road at night Hager asked
Miller to take a drink. Miller ac-
copied the offer, which he thought
was made in a spirit of friendship.
While he had the bottle to his lips
Hager started the shooting. He is
alleged to have emptied the five
chambers OF his revolver into Mil
ler's body.
Hager made his escape, but a
posse of officers is in pursuit. 1t is
feared that the killing may result in
renewal of feud troubles between
the Hager and Miller families.
