Say We Are to Blame for Itenletlon In Lake of the Wood«. Oneof the most valuable of thefana- dian island fisheries was the sturgeon catch in the Lake of the Woods. It is now learned that this splendid fish is nearly exterminated in the lake as a result of the unchecked ravages of fishermen during the last few seasons. It is reportedi that as much as three or four carloads of offal and eggs- fre quently pass over tne Canadian Pacific railroad from Rat Portage in one week. Five or six years ago the eggs cf the sturgeon were worth $10 to $15 a keg. The demand has now increased the price to-$50 a keg, sayw the New York Sun. Dominion officials say that the decline of this fishery can be traced directly to American depredations. A small corner of the Lake of the Moods lies within American, territory, and while, the Canadian authorities say. they al lowed only 40 nets altogether in the lake, itself, the Americans hat) not less than 200 or 300. ar.d were catching, in their own territory, a much larger sup ply than their Canadian competitors. Therefore, when the dominion govern ment saw that their efforts were futile to cope with the depredations of the Americans, they gave their own lessees a free hand to take all the sturgeon they could capture. ' 1 Grent Find of the Highly Prises: Theuanlinn Marble, The quarries from which the ancientt obtained their highly-prized '» hcssalian ;r verd marble have been discovered ind ure again being worked by an Eng lish company, says the Philadelphia Record. The quarries, which have been ! I ost. for more than 1,060 y ears, are in 11 he neighborhood of Larissa, in Thes- aly, Greece. The ancient workingsale very extensive, there being no fewei • han ten quarries, each producing a omewhat different description of mar ble, proving without a doubt that every variety of this marble found in the uined palaces and churches of Rome tnd Constantinople and likewise in all the mosques and museums of the world •ame originally from these quarries. In fact, the very quarry from which the amous monoliths of St. Sophia, Con stantinople, were obtained can be iden- ified with absolute certainty by the latriees from which they were e.\- raeted. In modern times verd ant ¡co marble las only been obtainable by the destruc tion of some ancient work, and it has, laturally, commanded extraordinarily ugh prices. As a consequence, a num ber of ordinary modern greens of Greek, French, Italian and American origin have been described and sold as verd antique marble. No one, however, who s really acquainted with the distinctive haracter of the genuine material < oulf e deceived by these inferior marbles hcssalian green is easily distinguished rom any other green marble by the fol owing characteristics: It is a “brec ia” of angular fragments of light and lark green, with pure statuary white, he whole being cemented together with 1 brighter green, while the snow-white patches usually have their edges tinted off w ith a delicate fibrous green, radiat ing to the center of the white. The ce menting material is also of the same fibrous character. WAGES IN FORMOSA. Th. Iflffheat Pay for Skilled Labor Doe« Not Come Up to One Dollar a Day. The people of Formosa have just become up to date enough to have a railroad of their own, and a de tailed report of its construction has been forwarded to the stockholders, many of whom are Frenchmen and Englishmen, says a London paper. The rails ure English; the locomo tives are English and American; the bridge works and girders are Ameri can, and the rolling stock is native built on American trucks. The labor employed was Formosan and Japan ese, but the work was done under the direction of French, English and American engineers. The rate of ■ ages paid per day to the machinists and laborers furnish an interesting contrast between the value put upon work in the occid« nt and orient. The Jap, < n an average received one-third more ¿h.«n Fur; ;osan, and the day was of ten hours, Here is the sched- ule of the highest rates paid: Car- penters, 62 cents; sawyers, 64 cents; masons and plasterers, 80 cents, roofers, 68 cents; coolies, 37 cents; workmen on scaffolding, 52 cents; navvies, 47 cents; painters, 68 cents; blacksmiths, 79 cents. THE RETIRED BURGLAR. H« Doe»n*< Sed Himaelf Up aa a Tea ch ar, Hut Draw, a Leaaon from Experience. "No matter what business a man may be in,” said the retired burglar, according to the New York Sun. “it is only by actual hard work and by everlastin’ly keepin’ at it that he will get on in it. No amount of dreamin’ will put a man nnywhere; but there ain’t anywhere that a man can’t get by steady, hard work. "I’ve seen this illustrated in my own business; as a matter of act, in my ow n experience. "I've wasted many and many a night dreamin' of robbin’ banks, makin’, in my mind, a million dollars at a clip, but never actually makin’ a cent, while some chap that I knew that didn't have half as lofty ideas about things as I did would be doin’ very well, indeed, robbin’ just small houses and places like that, just by gettin’ down to business and stickin’ to it; not wastin’ his time dreamin’. My son— "Well, I dunno, considerin’ my busi ness, or what was my business, as I ought to set up as a teacher, but you can draw your own conclusions.” AS THEY SAY IN ENGLAND, FEEDING HABITS OF FISHES. How the Chub «nil Hie Tronl Seize I pon n Wnndertna Worm. Worms are occasionally fed at the aquarium to such fishes as eat them in nature, including suckers and chubs and sunfish and trout, and some others. The. worms are put into the tanks at the top. to sink gnadually through the water until they are nipped.up by some «sh- - . • t The manner in which the fishes take them varies with the habits of the fishes, savs the New York Sun. The worm sinks slow y through the water, and with but few twistings or turnings of its body. A little chub will nip a worm much slenderer, but it will be longer, than itself, perhaps at about the middle of its length, and swim away with it with the two etuis free. Then the worm does squirm, and the little fish twists with excitement as it darts off with its prey, but it. holds on to it, and finally makes away with it. The trout, flashing upward like light ning. straps up the worm before it has descended far into the water. The worm disapears totally anil instantly, and at the instant cf «eirrglt the trout turns in an ineredib'y short spare, »nd with simple marre’lotisswiftness seek ing cover again as it would do in nature.

I was so pleas, <1 with the results that 1 kept on taking it until 1 was restored to health and strength. I shall never tic without this great medicine, and shall take a few doses when 1 do not feel strong.” One of the principal uses of Dr. Pierce’, Favorite Prescription is the preparation of prospective mothers for the time of trial and danger that comes when a child Is born.

"Since arriving in the United States I have been greatly astonished at proper the way you pronounce names,” said Mr. John H. II. Hanson, a tourist from Huddersfield.
