1t Is sad thing to have to admit
but all evidence tends to the convic-
ton that fishing about Washington is
not what !. used to lie. Conditions have
been iIeal for large catches. hut the
consensus of opinion of the old fisher
men who know the local waters Is that
the fish are not here
They recall the days. not so many
years ago. when even the poorest ex-
ponent Of the art could &c out for a
with a Var!cgated string which includ-
ed lass. rock. perch. and number OF
other fish. of a weight sufficient to
make the carrier thereof convinced that
he had something.
There has been g. good deal of asi-
tation upon the part Of the fishermen
OF this city in favor of getting the Fish
Commission to stock the Potomac.
While some few fngerlings are placed
in the waters from time to time. they
say that thousands are shipped away
to other streams. to hundreds that are
placed here. Possibly those in charge
of the restocking figure that tho clear
reach from the bay and the number OF
tributaries should admit sufficient Ash
to the river to make fishing good.
For some cause, they are not here.
II is known that many FISH which, other
wise would have worked up as far as
Washington. have been uselessly' killed
near Indian Head. where the chemicals
from the proving ground pollute the
waters. Fishermen returning from Mat

Races Leaders Must Set
Example, Urges Johnson

That service and self-sacrifice are the
gems of life. and that these virtues
should be practiced by the educated
members Of the colored race VINO are
struggling to uplift their people, was
the sentiment expressed by Henry Lin
coin Johnson, the retiring recorder cf
deeds, before a large audience of men,
bers of the Christian Endeavor Societies
of Southwest Washington, at St Pauls
A NJ. f Church. last night
For myself" said Johnson, Il would
not care to live in any completed COM
munit where there were no unfortu-
nate ones to help. no evil to combat, no
suffering or distress to relieve, no lowly
ones to lift up. no inspiration for SER
vice-in short, no real work to be done.
The Christian Endeavor," he said, IN
referring to the work of the societies,
deserves to be commended for the good
work il has accomplished for racial and
human uplift. and especially will 1t find
among the 100000 colored inhabitants
of Washington a large field and ample
opportunity for useful service"

To Improve Expression
As Well As Complexion

No face is really beautiful that lacks
expression. Do you realize that contin-
ual use OF powders and creams tends to
spoil piiancy of skin and elasticity of
expression? why not quit cosmetics. use
something better. which won't clog the
pores or make the skin dry, pasty or
oily? Ordinary mercoliZed wax acts
quite differently from any cosmetic. II
wonderfully improves any complexion,
giving it life and expression. BY grad
ually, harmlessiy peeling of the thin
veil of surface skin. it brings to view a
pure, soft, spotless complexion, delicate
ly beautiful and youthful. Every drug
gist has this wax: II is seldom more
than an ounce Is needed. 1t is spread
on nightly like cold cream. and washed
off mornings. In a week or two the
transformation is complete.
Wrinkles do not of course enhance the
expression. Neither do the pasty things
many use TO eradicate them. A treat
ment free from all objection Is made by
dissolving l OF. powdered saxolite In u
pint witch hazel; use as a wash lotion
This soon removes even the most obsti-
nate wrlnkles-Advt

psny, its officers and directors and the
estate of j. r. Morgan by Tsla ID. Clark

20 shares of stock.
The suit introduces no personal dam
ages and is chiefly confined to a com
plant on the personal losses alleged 70
have been incurred by the stockholders
through the actions Of the roads d.
rectorate.
Mr. Clark states in the complaint that
the 20 shares be owns came TO him by
inheritance. and that the suit is not a
conclusive one, brought to confer only
the federal court jurisdiction in a case
of which it would not otherwise have
cognizance.
Ii is sought to recover by this suit.

and surprised group OF three men who
sat around table drinking. While the
search was in progress, the tenant Of
the house, Angelo Tomasini, was arrest
ed on charge OF selling Illegally. A
close search of the premises disclosed
a barrel of bottled beer, barrel of
draught beer only recently tapped, sew
eral loose bottles of beer and fagons OF
whskey. II was one OF the biggest seiz-
ures of the year. The warrant issued
at the request of Grand Juror William
Wishart was in the hands of Officer Da-
yid Henderson and he was assisted in
the search by Chief Sinclair and Officer
Harry NJ, Gamble. The goods were load
ed into wagon and Tomasini was tax

spondent furnished for his appearance

PUT INTO BAR HARBOR
THIS MORNING
With Lights Extinguished
Vessel Made Mad Race
Through Fog AT Full.
Speed and Without
Sounding Fog Horn

Bar Harbor, Me-, Aug. 4.-The
North German Lloyd steamer
Kronprinzessin Cecilie, carrying
more than S10,000,000 in gold
and whose whereabouts had
been a mystery since she sailed
from New York last Tuesday,
arrived here at 8 o'clock this
morning, after q forced run, as
her officers feared capture.
The gold was consigned to
French and English bankers.
The ship was valued at S5,000,-
900 and with the gold cargo con-
stituted the finest sea prize ever
open to capture. AS she crept.
along the Maine coast, every
deck and portfolio was blanketed
with canvas, so that not a gleamI
of light betrayed her where
abouts. Her four stacks were
tipped with black paint to re-
semble an English ship.
On Sunday her capture SEEM
ed imminent, when her captain
intercepted a wireless between
French vessels, giving a warn
ing of the Cecilie's proximity, |
but a providential fog enabled
the liner to escape. Her course
was changed for a return Fri
day, when two days from Plym-
outh.
A group of financiers on board
to buy the ship and sail
her under the American flag,
out the captain refused. For
,wo nights, with her head and |
side lights extinguished, the
steamer plunged through the
'og full speed, and without
sounding her fog horn.
