FIRST SHAD FROM POTOMAC.
Capt. Neitzy Opens the Season With
Small Catch.

In one Of the hauls of the big net being
operated at the Windmill point fishing
shore by Capt. Neitzy, a roe shad and
twenty small buck shad were in the
catch. and are the first. it Is stated,
to be taken out Of the Potomac this sea-
son. The fish were sent to the market
here and sold at fancy prices to uptown
dealers.
This is about the earliest in the sea-
son that shad have ever been taken from
the river and their presence. 1t is said by
fishermen, is due to the warm weather
Of the past several weeks. It is possible
the fishing season on the Potomac may
begin early this spring, but the fisher
men who keep an account of shad move
ments do not look for any large catch
until the latter part of the coming month.
The fish, it is said, are rather more
plentiful in the south this season than
usual, and the fishermen are figuring that
the product this year may be larger than
is anticipated
Bunch fish are being received from the
lower river in fairly good quantities, and
from the prices the fish are bringing il
is proba BILE the season will be a most
successful one.

AT WORK IN HARBOR.
Dredge Employed Deepening Chan
mel to Depth of "a Feet.

Ehe big hydraulic dredge Pittsbury
which is employed in deepening the water
In the river channels about this CITY to
the depth of twenty-four feet, is work
ing IN the lower part of the harbor so
close to the wharves that she has to
swing out of the way to allow tugs and
vessels coming into harbor to pass on
their way to the landing wharves. The
steamer st. Johns, lying head in the
dock at the Colonial Beach pier, projects
so far out in the stream that she had
to be shifted to the ferry wharf in order
to allow the dTedge to work in her berth
rs yet the work done here by the Pitts
burg has been from the foot of Sth street
down the harbor toward its entrance.
When this work is completed the dredge
will be shifted to the upper end OF the
h6rbor and the portion from Sth street
TO the west end of the harbor will be
deepened. The material taken out of the
bottom of the river is being pumped
through d long line of pipe upon the
Potomac Park.
The dredge will be employed several
months in the f;drbor here and after COM
pleting this work will be taken to the
Anacostia river TO do considerable dredg-
ing work there.
The dredging machine belonging to the
John Miller Company of this city, which
was employed in throwing up the en-
bankment at Battery Rodgers Cove. at
Alexandria. IN preparation for the har
Dor deepening operations there, was
brought to a wharf of her owner on the
Eastern branch a day or two ago to
change the digger and to do some minor
dredging work. She will return to Al
exandria to resume work and on the
completion of the retaining wall across
the cove the Sanford a. Brooks Com
pany of Baltimore will start the work of
excavating the river at the Alexandra
wharves 10 a depth of twenty-four feet.

WRITER'S SLY[Y KNOCK
STARS JINGLE EDITOR
Besides, They're Contributing
Real Poems to the CoIIec-
ton of Rhymes.

They're getting In sly knock or two
on the Jingle Editor. A gentleman sign
ing himself "Metrical Meters sends in
this full-grown poem-no Jingle about
1t. How he ever understood the situa-
Editor could say:
Jingle. Jingle, Evening Star,
Up above the rest SO far
He muttered, as he tossed in restless
slumber
Jingles, jingles, good and bad,
All singing of a Star want ad.,
Were dancing round the room in endless
number.
They tweaked his nose, they pulled his
ear,
Till, trembling and AFFECT with fear.
He asked their wish, at which they
raised a hoiler-
A roar much like an angry sea,
Whose swelling chorus seemed to be
oh, Jingle Editor, I want that dollar
And thus. all through the weary night
He lay benumbed and chilled with
fright,
And listened to the chorus they were
singing.
CAT which the jingles disappear)
Then groaned-for twas the pesky 'larm
clock ringing"
Two Very Near the Prize.
r. w. Burroughs, 4234 sth street north
west, came near to the prize today with
sly dig at the Jingle Editor:
THE jingle man is hard to please;
He turns our verses down with ease;
But Star Want Ads without rhyme
VIII do the business every time"
What do you know about this one from
Dolly Doyle, 1416 Newton street:
THAT ancient Greek. Diogenes,
In broad daylight his lantern seized,
And through the streets Of Athens breezed
To seek an honest man.
"Wo save our coal oil for the night,
And save our sandals too, all right;
When seeking any kind of wight
We use The Star ad PLAN"
A splendid one! And it came so close
to winning the prize that it would be
worth trying for again with the same
amount of wit and clever versifcation.
