John Thompson and Henry Tharle, Bal
timoreans have made the acquaintance
of the Potomac perch this season. Last
season they made q number of big
catches and so delighted were they with
the sport that they returned this season
and gave the fish trial. They were on
the river at F1etchers Wednesday after
noon, having brought supply of shrimp
bait with them and they returned on a
late train. each with split basket well
filed with perch. 1t is more than prob
able that they will be on the river to-
morrow.
Members of the Glebe Club will open
the spring season at the house on the

Bill Johnson is providing his friends

that the Capitol heavy weight is to be
found on the river every day he is of
duty, his friends say. and II is equally
certain that he will return with fish.
And he does not use silver bait say.

Peter sat a little longer thinking and
