THIS BAD FISHING YEAR.

The experience Of Paris fisher.
men 10 q repetition of what has been
happening to Washington fisher
men in salt water regions this year.
Members of the Paris Fishing Club
to the number of $40 held their an
nual fishing classic on the Seine.
with thousands Of people watching.
At the end OF two and a half hours
of fishing the $40 had caught twelve
pounds Of fish. The prize went to
q Parisien, who caught one fish
Weighing half q pound.
This has been q bad summer for
washingtonians who are fond Of
the salt waters and travel in thou
sands in quest of croakers, perch,
spots, trout, etc. Just once In q
while have the fishermen been
lucky. Then they immediately went
and had their photographs taken
with the poor fish dangling from
lines.
This IL what happened to JOHN
HURLEY, N. L. PULLIAM and
some others. They made one good
catch-at highland have been
talking about II ever since. Their
photographs are in every store sell.
ing anglers equipment. for the
stores have got to show something
before the suckers will buy and
start out.
Salt water fishermen all along
the Chesapeake and Potomac and
<or v,ilas ,1y, q nj dawn tho Alta ntio
will frankly tell you that It has been
the worst fishing year In their ex-
perience. They don't know how 70
account for It. Some say that the
oil boats along the coast are killing
the fish by millions; others that the
fertilizer fishermen are destroying
fish in enormous quantities: and
stu others believe that some strange
and destructive fish have run the
ordinary fish away from their regu.
lar haunts.
