the pittance which the state is able to
dole out to her sons, and when the time
came to make payment 1t was found
that the old man was an inmate or the

The clerk refused to issue the warrant
for the claim, and then appeal was nnade

decided that the old fellow could not re-

The rain Friday night did not serve
to make the water in the Potomac so
muddy that fish would not bite. That
the river was in condition was made plain
when George Fletcher and Mike Collins
came ashore yesterday at Fle.cher's cove
before 10 o'clock with a string of go big
white perch.
The sight of the long string of live
fish was the means Of quickly commune
eating the fishing fever to scores Of en-
thusiasts. Many of them were disap-
pointed week ago, they said, and they
thought the water would not clear in a
week, but the big catch Of yesterday was
enough to prove their mistake.
Soft crabs and angIeworms We're used
as bait, and shortly after the fish were
exhibited i'm the city there We're telephone
calls to local dealers for supplies of soft
crabs for today.
Il never saw them bite better than they
did this morning." George Fletcher said
yesterday, land it was not necessary to
put five hooks on his line just to see
what he could do with them and he
landed five fish at one catch"
Many of the perch weighed considerably
more than eight ounces.
Anglers are expecting great sport
While they were delighted yesterday to
hear that white perch were running, they
We're further pleased with the news of

And he added. dreamily, Catching
rockfish is genuine sport
Fishermen are able to recall the big
catches of rockfish made last year in
the vicinity OF Chain bridge and as far
down as the deep water off Aaalostan
Island.
Some of the biggest catches of rockfish
ever recorded in this region. it is stated,
were made last season near Annapolis.
J. E. Buckingham. the veteran, was in

here to Annapolis.
1T seems almost incredible that so

We'll try this season for a new record -
The season for bass having closed the

obtained from the herring that are dipped

prove much more attractive than when
taken from fish that have been out of the
water several days.
| The best time to catch rockfish, it is

are said to furnish an excellent bait for
