TRAINED CORMORANTS
CATCH FISH IN JAPAN
Strings Around Necks Prevent
Birds From Swallowing
Prey From Rivers.

Drifting down q slowly moving river
in the dead of night, the banks of the
river lined with bonfres, and watching
skilled fishermen on the boats manipu-
late trained cormorants which catch
fish Is not only one Of the most interest
ing but one of the most picturesque
customs of Japan. With the advent OF
Summer large parties 60 out to watch
the birds hsh for ayu, a particular
Japanese variety of river trout which
has most delicious flavor when cooked
in native style and served in typically
Japanese sauces.
+ The cormorants are trained from
their earliest days to dive after the fish
and return them to their masters.
Strings tied around the necks Of the
birds prevent their swallowing their
catch, which are rescued by the fisher
men in boats. The cormorantS soon
learn not to mind being thus robbed
because at prescribed intervals the
string Is undone and they are allowed
to eat a few fish. Cormorant fishing
INDUCED in usually by the rich, Is
found on only q few rivers in Japan
The ayu when caught are served at
comparatively high prices. A well
trained cormorant can be had for about
$500.

GOSSIP FAILS TO ANNOY
EX.PREMlER TANAKA
Has Reputation of Being Little
Affected by What Others Think
or Saw About Him.

Former Premier Tanaka has the rep
utation of being a man little affected
by what others think or say about him.
He spent much Of his life in the army
and has the military temperament Of
going ahead with his plans and trusting
that his followers will enjoy following
him, but not worrying greatly If they
do not. Recently, however, he made q
remark that showed that he did not
approve of something said about him.
A professor in Toxic filed a formal
charge with the Toxic district court
saying that Baron Tanaka (then pre-
mier) was the leader In plot to as
sassinate Tokonami, one OF the minority
political leaders. The names Of mem
bers Of Tanaka's cabinet were included
in the charge. To reporters who had
rushed to his residence the premier
said: what a frightful world this is
getting to be! wish people would
think things out more seriously. before
acting. The charge is ridiculous"

near Klerksdorp, South Africa. This
stone Is at present known as &c" stone,
and is suitable for interior decoration,

but it can be worked fairly easily. It
is stated to be a far better ipsulator
