Local railroad agents say that during
the, present month business has been
far ahead Of the same month for
several years.
California, Washington, Oregon,
Yellowstone Park. and the lake coun-
try. seem to be the favorite regions
for the summer vacations. Special
summer rates to these points prob
ably Is responsible. These rates,
which for the summer tourist, are
good until Oct. 81, cost practically
the same as they did last year. The
summer tourist tickets seem to be
the favorites, because of the differ
ence in price. An all year tourist
ticket costs $40 more than a sum-
mer fare.
Many Going to Canada.
Canada, especially the Canadian
National Park. is being picked as q
refuge for many tourists, possibly be-
cause Of the inability Of travellers to
get passages abroad. and being de-
termined to leave the United States,
choose Canada.
Steamship agencies have been
closed since late in the winter, and it
is very difficult to get first or sec
ond cabin passage to Europe. There
are several persons here who have
been waiting for several weeks, for
passage to England. Ireland and
Scotland, but they are unable to get
accommodations. There Is little call
for passage on Pacific liners.
This inability to go abroad, has
made people change their plans, for
the summer and see America. The
railroads find themselves doing a big
business, and If the summer travel
continues as 1t has started this
month, the passenger traffic west
and northwest will be the largest in
years.

rare fish. real puzzler even to most oid-tine fishermen. was found by David Nugent. of Paweatuck. in his pound off Wamphassett Point. Stoning- ton. Wednesday afternoon. The curious prize is fifteen inches in length and was brought in Thursday to Basil Bpies Wood, librarian of the Westerly Public library for Identification. It was ascer- tained that the fish was a remora or sucking fish. of the family of Ehenei di- dae, interesting because of it's commen- sal habits. The renoras attach them selves to sharks an dother large fishes by a sucking disc on the top of the head. They have an elongated body, covered with very small scales one soft riged dorset fin. situated above the anal fin. the head fattened and covered with an elongated disc, extending beyond It. which exhibits numerous transverse cartiiaginous lamainae directed backward and has free and flexible broad mar gin.
 These laminae are formed by medifica- ton of the spircus process of a first dorsal fin, and when they are raised, after the margin of the disc has been closely applied to a smooth surface, a vacuum is created :; and so powerful is this apparatus that great weights may be dragged by a remora. while it ob- stinately refuses to let go it's hold. A .remora thus attached to shark or tur- tie may be carried about for weeks, leav- ing it's host only to secure food, injur- ing the shark in no way save, perhaps by the slight check it's pressure gives to the sharks speed in swimming. The remora is occasionally caught as far north as Cape Cod
 In Madagascar native turtle catchers put a ring about the narrow candal end of the remora's body. attach a line to this ring. and thus use the fish for catch ing turtles Several species of the fam ily are known, dwt Hing in all the warm CT seas.
 A rsrer form. thet the one caught by Mir Nugent is Rhonbechirus which at- taches itself to spearfshes. More num- erous is the closely related species called shark sucker.
