If I were to say that the driver was somewhat un- der the influence of at least one variety of intox- icant I would be putting the matter very mildly. He commenced a conversation, and when «ll suitable topics had been discussed he suddeniy said: ‘Let's trade hats?’ and before I had time to remonstrate he had completed the exchange. My head gear wase fairly good specimen of the silk variety: his was a tough-looking antique. Of course I wanted my hat back, but the drunken rascal objected. I didn't care to en- gage in « brawl, focI was on my way to see some lady friends, so I dropped off, got an- other hat and proceeded to my destination on foot.

Those that are selling at such low figures are very small fish and are probably caught in the nets that are put out for larger fish. Most of them are coming from down the river and are being caught near the mouths of the numerous small creeks that empty in the Potomac. It is stated, however, that no small number of them have been canght in waters of the Potomac within the limits of the District of Columbia. bats eg the ee five i = law which wai protection pawning reeks otis Potomac, it is not un- lawful for fishermen to use drag nets, stake nets or any other appliances for taking tek from the waters here, and many fishermen are already availing themselves of that privilege. SMALL FISH TAKEN BY THE HUNDRED. No shad or herring have been caught here this season as yet, but the smaller fish, such as perch and other early fish, have been taken ont by the hundred, and many of them, gutirely too small for market purposes, are killed by the nets und then thrown away. When the five-year law expired an effort was made to have it renewed, but as therc are nq better fishing grounds on. the river than in this vicinity considerable opposition to the bill was | manifested and the ill which passed the Sen- j ate has _— been able to get out of the com- | mittee r ‘That law p peonated fishing with the various appliances by meuns of which the spawning grounds of the Potomac were virtually de- stroyed, but did not prohibit fishing with rod and line. NATURE OF THE LAW. Mr. Banks, from the committee on fisherics, your committee entertains no doubt. Before its ennctment the shad and herring tisherios of the Potomac were nearly destroyed by over- fishing; since its enactment these fisheries have increased immensely, furnished employment to hundreds of fishermen, and | sided cheap \d wholesome food to the people. ‘THE, COMMITTEES REASONS. The committee also reiterated the reasons given for the passage of the original bill, which were as follows: First. The repid decline of the shad and her- ig fisheries of the Potomac shows the un- doubted neceseity and imperative demand for the adoption of protective measures whereby the complete destruction of these most valuable varictics of food fish P Second. In protecting shad and herring we protect all the other varieties of fish, and it is confidently believed that this measure romises better resnits in the interest of the ‘otomae fisheries than any other ever ad- vanced. Third. The waters of the Potomac within the District of Columbia, lying as they do just at the head of tide water, Tose the natural wwning ground for slind, herring and other varieties o} Fourth. The area covered by said waters com- prises but a very limited portion of the river, comparatively speaking, and the forming of this portion into a sort of reservation for pro- tection of the fish and use asa spawning ground would not militate against the interests of those lying the vocation of fishermen, as all the math f and breadth of the river below the Dis- @ between Virginia reported the bill favorably, and in commenting | upon it said: “Of the practical value of this law With black bass selling at twenty-five cents a | twent I thank you a thou- DOWNING, fold everywhere.
