Reasons Why He Thinks That Ar tificial Methods Do More Harm Than Good. Tha universal discussion of the vir tues of artificial propagation makes pertinent the following Interview with 4 man of experience In the fishing industry, whose views are radically at variance with the methods now employ, ej by authorities. W. H. H. Tteed, of Corbett, Oregjn, with hie brother, owns four flsh-w heels, one of tbetn being the largest cow-wtael on the river. He has also built four wheels for the Co JumWa River Packers Associaion dur. Ing the'jxast two Seasons, In conversation with an AstorUn re porter yesterday. Mr. Reed said: "I do not believe in the artificial propagation Idea, because it Is unneces sary, is founded on errors, and Is a means of squandering a lot of good money. If the closed season was prop erly observed, and the fsh allowed to reach the spawning grounds and the propagation allowed to progress In a natural way, the question of fish sup ply would be better disposed of than at present. "The common belief, as stated in the reports of the state flsr commis sioner, that the ehlnook salmon which is the mo3t valuable fish in the world, unlike the Fteelhead and the trout, does not return to the sea after spawning, is erroneous. Do some salmon avoid the spawning grounds until they bave at tained the weight of 60 to TO pounds, while others are found there with ripe spawn and only weighing twelve Is It :iot more probable that ; the larger 'sh' wn!'h are undoubted ly from ten Tofltiw?" ears of ase' have been on the .panning g,?unj3 0re? The marks often found on la.Je sal" to my mini only sears ii ion af wounds which were received while ii. the tip-rivers and which hc-aled on re turning to ihe salt water. This being true, the destruction of large quantities by Jumping against the fish racks, be low which are found thousands of dead fish, and by being slaughtered by the tn to obtain eggs for hatchery pur poses, is .vaatelul and useless, as more yojng fish v.-oull result by allowing nature to have its course. "More of them would reach the sea, for the rsason that the young fry, as naturally praduced, coming into life urnid the environments and in '' ner provided by n- ne man" ihe.nat"-'- .ure, have more of .i Instln.-U of a fish as to 'Wdlnf a rtd elf preservation. They lii Je aiong the shoals in small schools, and gradualy'inike their way down stream, following tbe largtr fish, and when matured they return to their na tive streams for tpawnlng. Not so with tbe orphans which are dumped by thou sands Into the unknown waters soon to become th" prey of crows, gulls, trout, eeals, sturgeon, etc., and have neither the strong Instinct for fchlfting for themselves, nor for returning again to their native waters." Mr. Reed lenles that the fish-wheels To keep the skin clean is to wash the excretions from it off ; the skin takes care of itself inside, if not blocked outside. To wash it often and clean, without doing any sort of violence to it, re quires a most gentle soap, a soap with no free al kali in it. Pears', the soap that clears but not excoriates. All sorts of stores sell It, especially druggists i all sorts of people use it - & (S jg X & LEWIS, Portland, Oregon are destructive to the Industry, say ing: "The wheels are idle during olght months in the year, and are only operat el successfully during the freshets. When thi water is low the fish pass by In the channels and avoid the wheels. The only wheel which Is particularly destructive is one at The Dalles, which is so built that a large stream of wat er cw ba turned througn from :he falls like a mill race, and this arouses the large schools cf fish, which are wait ing In the deep pouU below for liigher water with which to ascend the fails. The fish taking thh rush of water to be a freshet, are enticed into the wheel in such ni'irtb-rs that tbe cur rent cannot t;:rn the whe-d without help from the men." Mr. Reed is also responsible for the statement that a ran of fish requires. from twenty to r.ieii.v-nve n:ivs to i reh the Cascades after entering the j 'ens thls man?

A large number of ties were piied on the trac k. The engineer did not t-ee the obstruction in time to stop the train. The nilot of the engine was damaged ami tirskebeams were broken under some of the cars. A delav of about an hour ensued. It was a narrow escape from a serious disaster.

VICIOUS INITIATIONS. Two' Harvard Students Seriously In jured. NEW YORK.' April 8. A special to j the Herald from Boston says: The cruelty practiced In the initiation of members into the exclusive secret societies of Harvard, made public through the serious Injuries sustained by Enos S. T. Richardson, of New York, nd A. W. Mason, of Boston, both of whom have been under the doctor's care for several weeks. Is giving the members of the faculty consld'i'Jble concern.

KVhiiid IViby, 'in-sl, lent ,f the Vlt;i Kappa Kpsllon Society at which the alleged h.llng whs done, a Imlts that In the cases of l.'lchr.lson and M.i hon It wis ,evor niyl that i luce they went through the Initiation the system h.is been changed. lr. Walcott, who is acting president of Harvard In the absence of Pr, Kliot, says he was not aware that any ciuj 'Iti.-s were being practiced until he re ceived a very vigorous l-tter In regard to the trailer. "Tho question Is how to stop tli'Mii." he sal 1. "About thirty years ago Har vard assumed the posi'ion that e could not be responsible for the way ic which the students i-pent their time. Tne onlv way Is for the students who are asked to Join the society to re fuse to submit to act Ions which are de grading not only u themselves but to the college. Phe f iculty nas the pow er to exerdSi' discipline and If It so chaise It might rule that public Initia tions should be dNconiinued." Dr. Rartlett. the regent of the uni versity, has eharite onl the secret so cieties at Harvard. "I do not care to say anything about re ive-nt Injuries" he said. "It Is true that ut times I have to get nf.rr some of the ivle;e f -r 'oun'i treat- m-nt of their nodtlate. but the men have always mad any change which I have niggeste si far I am per fectly satls'l-d with the action of the men. I wa no: aware that anything t-riou had happened to Mason or Richardson. The injuries were due to accidents," TRANSPORTS DON'T PAY.

Considering the advi.i ibility of putting :i small tax on mineral waters. There carnoi be any doubt that such a tax would bring in a latg-' sum of money to the treasury. In Imdoii alone U. 00,000 is now spent annuilly on miner al waters by consuii-M, while it has been computed that In the whole Kl"(fv dom eight times that amount Is spent ami beside the enormous quantities i'l minerals vsumed at home more than million dozens were exported last year. At the present time mineral wt eis pay nothing to th r'vwllii'! and they could, with adding to their real ity, bear some portion of the burden of extra taxation '.hat will have to be IniDosed. Colliery owners are fearing a tax upon exported coal. In l'JOO no fewer than 16.000,000 tons of coal were ex ported by Great Biitain and the bulk of these exports went, not to the colo nics, but to foreign countries. GREAT HOTEL FIRE.
