Collector Blackmitn Gives Some Official
Figures.
Ex-Senator Henry Blaskman, collec
tor of Internal revenue for this dis
trict, gave some interesting informa
tion to the Eist Oregonlm today, re
lating to his office. Regarding politics,
he refused to say anything excepting
that the election is now over and he
has nothing but the business of his
office to attend. He stated that, the re
ceipts of his office for the month of
May, 189i, show an increase of 85.500
over the corresponding month in 1895.
"The reason for this increase.
said Mr. Blackman, "is that the dis
tillery at Grant's is paying consider
able revenue into the government
treasury. I estimate that the last
month of the fiscal year, June, 1C96,
will show a revenue of at least $70,000,
a large increase over June. 189-3, and
tie increase is duo to the fact that
d iring June are collected for the
co ning year the licenses ot retail
dealers, wholesale dealers, rectifiers,
brewers and wholesale malt dealers.
At the same time, there will probably
be a slight falling off in Washington
and especially in Seattle, where the
decrease Is estimated to be about
$1,250. This is because the city coun
cil of Seattle has recently passed an
ordinance compelling all restaurants

The finance committee recommended
that the per capita tax remain at 15

Mr.
a Man
Gabel Severely Beaten by
Whom He Bad UUcharged.
A serious affray occurred at the farm
of Mr. Frank Gabel, near Wapinitia,
yesterday, In which Mr. Gabel received
a severe wound on the head. Mr. Ga
bel had discharged a sheepherder by
the name of Felthousen, "who had been
in his employ the p nttvo years. The
herder took offense at being discharg
ed, and while Mr. Gabel was seated at
a table writing, Felthousen stole
up from behind and dealt him
a heavy blow over the head with a re
volver. Mr. Gabel arose and by the
help of mil who cima to his assist
ance overpowered the her !er. How
severely r. Gabel was injured is not
known, though he has sent in word
that be will q me to town tomorrow,
hence it is judged his injuries are not
dangerous. -

Clifton. I now have a boat patrolling

just returned from tbrre myself.
Everything is quiet and all who wish

t These odd fishermen seek their inan
imate prey whenever the Scatter per-
SSiefn: f eome are moot oc
tlunnff the long summer days. Like
the takers of living spoUs from the
water, theyknow tho field cf their op
erations thoroughly, and espond their
energies mostly whera tho "llahinT" is
best. Perhaps, of aU tho "tfTounds" in
this vicinity, they regard the stretch
of sea oS tho Delaware breakwater as
the most profitable. It is widely known
among skippers and all scafarin? men
wno visit these part3 a3 a great ceme
tery for anchors. They are being con
stantly "planted" there, to use the
nautical phrase. Tho perpetual invol
untary "sowing" of anchors there is
due to the large number cf vessels that
are compelled by conditions of busi
ness or of wind and tide to ride off the
oreauwatcr, ana to their - trotting fre
quently caught in a gale while doing
j sc. Then, the floor of the cea at that
point appears to have a pcculiarfaail
j ity for fouling anchors, and vessels ara
not scUom compelled or prefer, as the
. less of two evils to abandon them.
Territory up and down tho coast
ranks next, hi tho anchor fisherman's
esteem, as a fruitful anchor bed. ' Tho
lutevior waters of the harbor Dro mere
barren, yet repay search. Even thn
Xorth and East rivers, for some di
tauco up, are Otffcasionallv harve&ted.
I and usually not wholly in vain.
The method of anchor fishing Is sim
ple to primitiveness. It consists in lot
ting down a chain in a loop from tho
sides of the vessel until the loop trails
niong tuo uottoni. Then the boat sails
along with ell hands on board alert for
a "bite." I lain as this tacklo Is, it4s
elective as any that could be ' devicca.
"Planted" anchors almost invariaUy
lie with one fluke buried in the aa
and the other sticking straight up. " If
tne angling cnom is dragging in the
direction of the inner curve of tho up
standing fluke, it is almost a sure
"caton." Tiien tne line wVh the anchor
attached is carefully hoisted, some titties
by hand, or if the anchor is very heavy,
by means of capstans. If tho spoil is
A very weighty one say four, five or
six thousand pounds, a driving engine
is frequently employed. The instances
are few, however, where the fishermen
fail to 6ccure their booty. ' When ncc
essary tho crew of one anchor smack
will lend a hand to another. Boats
often work in pairs. A cablo is
stretched between the vessels, and
dragged on the bottom. . When an nn
chor is caught one of tho vessels takes
a position above it and both crows'
assist in raising" it ::Thio method in
Eures a wUe swoop ' of the bottom.1
There are two purposes Jor which the .
"catch" Is -disposed of. -.Usually tho
anchors' are Bold to ba used as an

a considerable, degree .-of rust in
no way impairs their eQcieney ai
such.. If they arc too much; eaten up
by rust, which 6cldom.. happens, .they
wrought iron the price brought is of ton
aonsidcrable. Thero are also two ways
by which the fishermen find a market
value for their . wares. They cither
eell' them directly by hawking
them about among the vessels in the
harbor or they sell them to tho shfo-
chandlers. Sometimes they have por' '
'mission from wharf -owncr3 or lessees
to stick the anchors ' up there with a"
notice that they are-'tor sale, with tho
price stated. Asa rule thoy get very
good pric3. Kew anchors are sold for
five cento a pound now, and the rer
covered old ones seldom suCor a great
er depreciation in value than one cent
a pound. Therefore, for .every one
thousand pounds of anchor they cap:
tura tho fishermen make about fcriy.
dollars, and If the enchbr i3 one of. tho
very heaviest a' eis thoucund pounder
-their haul nets them about two bun
dred and forty dollars. They seldom take
a monster of that else, however; their
usual capture i3 between fifteen hun
dred and twenty-five hundred pounds.
There are several reasons fcr this. In
the first place tho lighter cnchcr3 ere
more generally used; ia tho 6coond
place it is tho tailing vessels which
most often lose their anchors, end, cs
a rule, they carry lighter anchors than
steamers, and, in tha third place, most
large vessels whether Gtcam cr ceil
ing commonly carry both a light end
a heavy anchor, and seldom drop tho
latter in the harbor cr immediately
off the coast, using it for deeper and
rougher ceas. The -- fact that - Gtcam
vessels lose their anchcrs less frequent
ly than sailing vessels is due to their
being able to use their steam, when
necessary, to check the strain upon the
anchor chain.
Tho captured anchor chaic3 often
make a substantial addition tn the gain
of the fishermen, fetching about throe
i three cents a pound. Sometimes they
arc vi-ry lung and weigh hundreds of
. pounds.
I One cf the divers of a local wreck
