Following the recent cold spell salt
water fish have been more active In
taking bait and lures and the best
part of this angling is that, while the
fish landed are not as numerous as
heretofore, the majority of them are
large. Many fish are being landed
in the Patuxent River of Sand Gates,
about five miles above Broomes Island.
We have letter from I. A. Lehman,
who f1shed there Wednesday. He said
"I have Just returned from a trip
to BroomeS Island and want to tell
you there are plenty of fish in the
Patuxent. However. they are not
very responsive to any lures SO far
used. Our party bagged only seven
blues. but we saw many of these
gamesters. and lost as many as we
caught. Capt. Fred Elliott, our boat
man, told US that on Tuesday after
noon his party caught several rock
fish, one a seven-pounder, and that
rock, blues, large sea trout and Winter
perch were seen all around his boat.
He also told of two anglers fishing
from roWboat, who caught two sea
trout at the same time, weighing 4
and S pounds, out of school which
entirely surrounded their boat.
ITO me it is evident that the blues
and sea trout are restless and about
ready to leave the river for the bay
and ocean, but probably for the next
week or 10 days there will be mighty
good fishing if the weather remains
settled. I do not know of any time
during the last several years when
fish seemed more plentiful"
"A T THE eleventh hour Of the 1894
~ fishing season we are receiving
good reports from the GooseS
and Sharps Island.
E. w. Spicer, John T. German, H.
Judson (Juggy) Guide of Hyattsville
and a Mr.. Danburg selected the Gooses
for fishing last Thursday. They had
as their guide Capt. Wesley jenkins
of Tilghman Island. They landed
seven rockf1sh ranging in weight from
5 to IL pounds, and IA blues, the blues
weighing from 61a to 9 pounds. Spicer
told us the fish we're striking all day,
but that the majority of the catch
was made in the morning. He said
last Monday and Tuesday plenty Of
fish were landed on these grounds,
and that on Tuesday, Capt. jenkins
and his son landed % big blues.
w. L. Santman, one of our angling
friends, called us Friday and said q
friend Of his in Baltimore had just
phoned him saying he has received
report from his boatman at Thigh
man Island, to come on down, that
the big blues and rockfish were being
caught off Sharps Island and in the
mouth of the Choptank River. These
big fish are being landed trolling with
a pound or a pound and a half of
lead on the line.

The Anemone

The anemone, named by the Greeks
because it grew in windy places, is the
thermometer, instrument for measuring
the force of the wind, of the wilder
ness, observes a writer in the New
York Telegram. 1t is an Ill wind
that blows nobody good. Whenever
the wood anemone trembles in the
breeze somebody's ship Is coming in
from sea. There is a cosmic tide with
which the winds of heaven blow, with
which if you drift, all things come to
you. If you swim against the tide,
good things float past you. To be in
harmony with it you must have the
humanities: consideration of others,
sympathy with their needs, kindness,
benevolence, tenderness toward all.
The five petals of the anemone stand
for these humanities.

CHAPTER XII

The board of supervisors granted
the petition unanimously and amidst
cheers and rejoicings Babson's
speech, in rebuttal to Gagan's, proved
to be the masterpiece of his career.
He read to the meeting the law under
which the district proposed to operate
read 1t right out of the Code of Civil
Procedure. too-and pooh-pooed the
idea of a slick metropolitan lawyer
trying to brighten honest and intelli-
gent men with crazy bugaboos of I'M
constitutional law that was and for
some years had been embodied in the
code. IF this law was unconstitu-
tional," he yelled, "it's unconstitu-
tionality would have been discovered
before the bill was even submitted to
the legislature; and II 1t hadn't been
discovered then the legislature, a ma
jority Of whom are practicing attor-
neys, would have discovered 1t; and
even If the legislature had. unbeliev-
ably, failed to discover it, the supreme
court, whose duty 1t is to pass upon
the constitutionality of our state laws,
would long since have discovered II.
Pooh-pooh and couple of what-nots
for the mighty Mr.. Gaganl We are
not to be frightened by men Of straw"
The project moved forward without
delay. Sixty days from the date of

Earlv Stock Brokino

Stock certificates were a product of
the Seventeenth century, according to
Pratt's "Work Of Wall Street." The
first great modern company was the
East India company, Incorporated in
1900, and the Hudson Bay company,
soon followed, but it was not until the
latter part of that century that the
shares of these companies began to be
actively traded in. The term "stock-
jobbers' was used in England in 1888
and In 1897 parliament enacted a law
to license stock brokers and check the
evils of speculation. Stock trading
came to America in colonial times and
the New York Stock exchange was
the outgrowth Of an agreement signed
in May, 1892, by "a brokers to fix the
rates of commission on stocks and

Virgin Islands Include
Numerous Small Islands

The Virgin group comprises large
number of small islands-only few
of them of any considerable impor-
tance-lying to the east OF Porto
Rico between the Caribbean and the
Atlantic ocean. They include not only
those which the United States bought
from Denmark, and. which were for
merly known as the Danish West In
dies, but also number which constl-
tute British colony called the Virgin
islands.
Columbus discovered the group on
his second voyage in 1904. 1t is said
he was amazed at the number OF
them, and feared he would not have
enough saints names to go round
so he put them under the sacred pa
tronage of the 1000 martyred virgins
of St. Ursula.
Danish traders early established
themselves on st. Thomas, and by a
sort Of squatter sovereignty the island
was taken under Danish administra-
ton in 1871. st. John and st. Croix
and smaller islands were added in
1873. The British, meanwhile, appro-
priated the rest of the group.
In 1867-6S the American State de-
partment sought to buy the Danish
islands. Denmark was willing to sell,
and the islanders were eager for the
transfer, but the United States senate
refused to ratifv In 1902 a second
treaty was signed, and the United
States was to have the islands for $5,-
100000; but the Danish upper house
did not ratify. In 1917 the transfer
was finally effected, this country pay

NEW YORK, June 21.-The TO
: bust manner in which Bill Terry
and his travelling Giants are taking
: their road trip into the west has be-
come a matter of concern to other
J.. upper division teams, notably the
Cards and Cubs.
The west was where the Giants
were to be stopped. So far, they
have won seven games in eight
: played on their western excursion.
Yesterday the Giants started con-
: illusions with the Chicago club, and
emerged victors, II to z, which
. boosted the New workers. five games
ahead of the Cards. six and one
half above the Cubs.
The Giants may lose point here
and there in finesse, but they make
up for it in sheer heartiness. They
scored seven runs in the third in
= ming yesterday.
Dodgers Best Cards
st. Louis came to grips with the
i. visiting Brooklyn boys and lost, 9-5.
The Dodgers set upon Wild Bill
Hallahan in the third for three runs.

Pie Traynor, new Pirate boss, gave
Pittsburgh its first win in six
starts. He sprinted home on Whit
ney's wild throw in the ninth, after
he had hit his third double of the
Fday, and scored the winning run
against Boston, 6-5. 1t put the Pr

Philadelphia and Cincinnati
split three-ring circus. The Pills
made six errors in the first game,
losing, GA. In the nightcap the Reds
divided errors, making three, Phil
adelphia the same; total for the day,
twelve. Cincinnati got sixteen hits
off Phil hurlers, the PhilS eighteen
off five Reds. George Davis, with
four hits in the six trips, led the
Phils to win, 1910.
Red Pitches ShutOut
Red Ruffing pitched the fourth
one-hit shutout in the American
League this year, against Cleveland,
winning 80. His clubmate, Johnny
Broaca, pitched a one-hitter June
IA; Earl Whitehill, Washington, got
another against the Yanks May 30;

he has broken SO many VOWS that it
isn't safe to bet one way or another
when Make is concerned.
All of Max's dubious and disap-
pointing fights may be cast into the
background. He erased all doubt of
his ability when he stopped Max
Schmeling and then polished off
Camera.
The new champion says he is
proud of the title and glad for the
money it will bring him. He expects
to keep the title for ten years and
then pass it along to Buddy, who
will soon undertake serious fight
ing campaign.
THIS angle brings up an inter-
Il esting issue. Will two brothers
meet in the ring for the first time
in history to fight for the heavy
weight crown? Some ringsters say
such battle would be a frameup or
a hoax. Others, in discussing the
question say it is possible. They
point out that no man in the world
likes to be whipped by his kid
brother and, by the same token, any
man in the world would appreciate
nothing more than to beat an older
brother be it for marbles or money
or just for fun.
The brothers Baer already get a
little rough with each other when
they spar. Max isn't giving the sub
ject much thought at present. He
has some radio engagements and
then Hollywood and the movies.
Hollywood is awaiting the return
of Make with bated breath. Last
time he was out there he noncha-
lantly walked on to a Greta Carlo
set and visited with the elusive
Scandinavian.
This almost constituted sacrilege
in Hollywood. Even Louis B. Mayer,
who owns a big piece of the studio
where Carlo works, wouldn't dare
barge in on her without announce
ment.

Hamilton Lorimer is entitled to part
of MaX's earnings, along with Ancil

Will Max marry again? Who will
be the lucky or unlucky girl? Plenty
are willing to try. He receives
thousands of mash notes week.
NNE thing is certain. Make will
~ stick by his family and the
family will stand by Make. The
Baer family is more than family.
1t is a clan. Ma and Pa Baer, the
two sisters and Buddy, the fighting
young brother, who at 10 years al
ready is larger than Primo Camera.
Buddy isn't a clumsy man noun
tain. He is built from the ground
up. Fast for his size, he could make
any university football team in the
country providing he could pass his
algebra lessons. But with his talents
and Makes prestige, Buddy should
worry about things like algebra.
Baer purchased a home for his
parents with his first fight earnings.
He takes his father, Jacob Baer,
into all of his training camps. Ma"
Baer, a fight fan, stays away from
