The report of a shortage of 18,000,000 bushels ia the oyster crop of Chesa peake bay does not disturb the equa nimity of the Chicago dealers. "Our business is mostly in fish this winter," one of them declares. "Hard times have caused people to econo mize on hiph-priced oysters and meats and turn to Ush as the staple food. Fish are very cheap and plentiful. Chicago cats 20,000,000 pounds of lake fish and 5,000,000 pounds1 of ocean fish annually.

Large fleets engage in the catch of this fish and it is forc ing its way into all the markets of the world. Brook trout weighing from two to five pounds are plentiful in the local markets. They come from private fish ponds where they were taken out and frozen last fall. The finest yellow perch are taken in the Detroit river Bt the St. Clair Flats. Muscaliongc reach the market from the interior lakes of Wisconsin. The lake trout varies in color, both of skin and flesh. The flesh is yollow from the southern to the northern waters of Lake Superior.

Il Waa First Nailed fur Over Forty Years Ago The first race for the cup, now known as the America's cup, waa sailed around the Isle of Wight on August ::a, Bays the l'hilii.lolplila J'ross. Of the ynchts that suited tho seas in those days the gallant old ! America, full of years ami honors, la I probably the only one now in commis- n'on. Tho Koyal yacht squadron hod offered a cup open to competition by yacht1 of ultiintions. The Araurica was lying ai Cowca, and her owner wore anxious to get a match raeo with a reprciotitntive ltritish yucht. Com modore Stevens entered the America in this open race. There wero six schooners, one a three-master of three ' hundred and ninety-two tons, uud eiijlit cutters in the race. The Ameri- ' ca wn.itl:c last yacht to get off. Sho ran viiir-nml-wiug, her mainsail out cn one kUIo and her foresail out on tho other, and very soon hud Railed grand ly through the fleet, vouching the schooner llcatrico and the oui tcrs Au rora, Volnnto ami Arrow, which wero loading. Finally the America, by very siaHf".! dodging, managed to got into th'l.'wl. i .;o Yankee bout with tho wind free had shown superiority over the Eng lish ve.' sols. And when it came to : windward WLfltshe proved thatnhe was equally rupevior. Sho worked to the windward so speedily that by the tinio tlu point viw reached there was not a jncht in hi;-ht from her docks. The wind now died down and a stron? head tide was encountered, against which the America made little head way. This gave the fleet, which had not yet eanght the full strength of the tile. a cliunce to orccp up on her. The lit:!e euttetr Aurora aud Hie cutter Arrow nearly cuught up with the America, but tho rest of the fleets wore miles S itern. At Bt. Catherine's the Arrow went aground and was out of the race, but the little Aurora olung to the America admirably. The wind now freshened again and the America drew away rapidly from her plucky little rival. After getting by St. Catherine's the America had a leading wind, uud easing oft her sheet tore tluou,")i the water in magnificent style, uad swept toward Cowcs, are nni..;.Uc winner. The defeated Eng lish yaelits wore two days altogether in gottiiiT into port The dismay of the Lnrrlinh yachtsman and all Ureat Britain ht the terrible defeat given by the little black Yankee is almost a matter of international history. Commodore Stevens had tried be fore tho big race for a match very hard aiid had posted in the Royal squadron's castle a challenge to sail ugainst any yuo'it for from one thousand to ten tlious.n',1 guineas, but the English WL-rc tiraid of tho Yankee from hit first appearance and the challenge was never accepted.

About twenty years ago there was a malpractice case tried in this court against a Danttor physician. He per formed a surgical operation on a pa tient and removed a piece of diseased bone, an this was the subject of the suit. You know, In such cases, if the patient doesn't recover as quickly as he thinks he ought to he becomes an impatient and goes for the doctor with a lawsuit. There was a big fight in that case, with lots of witnesses, and the bone came in with the rest of the evidence. It smelled worse than a slaughter-house in midsummer when it came into court, and it gathered ad ditional smell constantly afterward. The jury disagreed or there was a new trial granted, so that the case hung fire from April to October, and the clerk was directed to preserve the all important bone by locking it in the office safe. Both parties tried to get it but the court would not surrender it. It generated such odors while in cus tody that It nearly drove us out of the office altogether, and if you want to realize all about "the scent of the roses" that still remains here after all these years, although we have done everything to get rid of it, just put your head into that safe.
