FISHING
 NEW INDUSTRY

What is considered practically a
 new Industry D Is the catching ot
 sharks ln. AlsskaR waters. There is great demand TOT tue oil and skins especially since the Europea
 war began.
 Me@srs. J. II. Scott, brother ot Gutherle Scott. ot Juneau ana Jas. Lee. are developing this industry. Their operations are carried on from a large. gasoline scow, 7S feet in length, covered with a house, and the necessary equipment for lifting the sharks aboard and ex- tracting the oil. They have been so engaged for some time past and 8 goOL sized catch has. already been made, the skins of which Wil be shipped to Seattle on an early steamer and thence transported tO Engldad. The skins are generally used .or recol pads in machine guns and the oil for lubricating aerOplane engines.
 The specie of shark ts the com mon mud variety found in the wat CTS of the North Pacific; the skins average in weight about 200 pounds; the sharks when caught weigh from 400 to 15OO pounds; the skins are placed in brine tanks Eor number of days and thereaf- ter are dry salted and baled for shipment; the shark liver is thrown in the steam kettle and the oil Axsraoed; flyers run about s5 per ceLt oil and produce about gallons of oil each. The outfit has been operating since July 18th, and over one hundred and fifty snarks have been brought in, go some have been captured during the past week. A trawl line Is used in the shark, one similar to a Nalibut line.
 The scow is now tied up atCash Coles dock and will prove inter estlng to all who may wish to in spect ;t. It is a twin screw and is named Elliot.--Dispatch.

The Poet Abroad,
(NeW York PreSs)

With two most popular, most pro- ductive, most prosperous English poets familiar figures in our streets, we note the market for poetry and the slight resemblance the modern pro- ducer bears to inc long-haired gaunt and collarless genius once pictured in the mind of the common crowd
 Poets no longer starve in garrcts They work on farms and observe na- ture, they work in factories and ob- servo men, they suffer hardship on tn C sea and in the trenches and describe the storm king with whom they ride and the whistle of the sputting shell whose mate may send a deadly mes senger to them.
 They look less into their own souls and more into the eyes of tn ose who are bowed by a tragic fate. They lis- ten less to their Owr subjective mus ings and more to the rhytmic beat of gay dancers in the whirligig of fash ion.
 Every one writes rhymes today ol scars to mysterious heights on the strange wings of free verse;" and the best paid arc clever weavers of ad- vortising jingles. With the first breath of February's Oyerconfident spring breezcs the young mans fancy lightly moves to metric m measures, and the edi- tors waste basket, that cemetery of buried hopes, overflows with the an nual offerings. Children are trained to fashion linn ericks, and from the melting pot of the schools are poured forth Would-bC MiltOns, inglOriOu3 though not mute.
 Good poetry never had better mar kct or higher inspiration, it never had a nobcr call to serve the cause c! freedom: and it is well that lesser .lnortals arc moved to batter on with rhythmic step, though at a distance, when the poet is abroad.

Julius Baldwin, a lifelong resident of Blue Hills. passed away at his home at 10:45 o'clock this morning. About a month ago MT. Baldwin had a boil on his arm and it was lanced. Blood poisoning set in and he entered the New Britain General hospital as a 2atient Two weeks ago he was discharged and returned to his home. He was then confined by an attack of pneumonia, which left him so weak that the blood poisoning worked it's way through his system and caused his death.

Ritchie notified the factory fire department and the con- pany under the direction of Charles F Lewis hurried 10 the scene of the saolazc. The fire originated in the walls cf tho house and was caused from an a uArhea4ed stove. No blaze was Der H tibIC. but the house was filled with
