C'nnndlnn. 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

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.

MAKES WEAK WOMEN STRONG

Forty years ago, Dr. Pierce search«!

extracted and preserved by the use of
chemically pure glycerine, have proven
most potent in making weak women

no alcohol; is not a "patent medlciue,”
nor a secret ono either.

"Since arriving in the United States
I have been greatly astonished at

the way you pronounce

II. Hanson, a
tourist from Huddersfield. England,
according to the Washington Post.
“For example, this very hotel at
which I am stopping (the Raleigh) is
given a pronounciation that sounds
barbarous to my ears. You call it
as though it were spelled ’Rawley.’
Now that is positively incorrect, for
the great Englishman in whose honor
it was no doubt named is known now
and has always been known, with its.

“I can’t criticise your pronuncia

in England your beautiful river has
ever been called the Pot-o-mae, with
the accent on the last syllable. It is
