Paving Prejects Progressin The contractors of the paving of the various districts are preparing to begin the actual work of paving this week. Sev- eral of them have large quantities of broken stome, sand and brick on the ground. Dan Hannon, one of the large contractors, sald he would begin paving this week whether the bond issue was dis- posed of or not. This matter has caused some little apprehension. The last adver- tisement for the le of bonds brought no bids from the eastern capitalists. Bids have been readvertised again, 10 be opened at the council meeting April 1L It is said that the contractors who have the contracts will bid in the bond issue and wsell the same at a private sale. It is also smid that the contractors ha a ready means of disposing of the bonds. It is lkely, therefore, that the paving contracts will suffer no great delay be- | cause one whole series of bonds was sold | which will give the contractors some chance | to draw on the treasury before the work must be done entirely on the credit of the contractors.

So far as game ing is coneerned, the present season opens up inauspiciously, and that for the sole rea son that utilitarian yankee has vented a new piece of fishing tackie, & rod and line which is alieged to register the weight of the fish ane does not catch. Of course no fisherman could be worthy of the name and still belleve the testimony of cheap-jnhin instr against of his own muscular sense, but he dread to hear the demand of the from Missourt In fishing world many remarkable nstruments and appiances are used, but me must g0 (o the orient to find the most peculiar sort of tackie. One occasionally hears in America of a trained otter, and the fisherman who is lucky enough to Dossess ofe has a guarantee for a good season’s work. In the Mediterranean turtle fisheries the remora, or sueking fish, ased as an aasistant fisherman. It Is & curious sort of fish which attaches itself larger fish, to turties, or to boats them- selves, and when it gets a good grip & mud turtie is mot in its same holding-on qualities. When a Meavy ring is placed about aliead of its tail and it boat. When a turtle mora is thrown out, forty-ieech-power sheil of the the averag ng tackie some in- such that dovs man a as class for is caught is body s tethersd to the sight and fastens its suction apparatus to the turtle. It holds fast to the turtle until that creature has been towed alongside of the vessel, when it is pried loose and sent after another turtie. Some- times the remora gets contrary and will not try to take hoid of its turtle, but will swim back to ithe boat and fasten its sucker to the hull of the boat. Akin to the remora in turtie fishing is the use of the cormorant in China for fish- ing purposes. The birds caught when young and are carefully trained. A tight collar is placed about their necks, to which strings are fastened. They are thrown out into.the water and taught to catch fish and bring them to the Chinese boats. It takes nite patience, much petting, and some ing to teach the cormorant to fish without a collar and strings attached, but when one masters the art it is a most valuable aid to fishermyn. The cor- morants take a certain pride th their work and when they are unsuccessful in their efforts they take their places shame- facedly to await the next tryout. The young usually are trained to work by the assistance of the old birds. The owners are kindness itseif to the birds when they work, but box their heads and hurl im- precations at them when they fail. In some of the South Sea isiands a species of spider proves that it was the original fish-net maker. A bamboo sapling is bent on a sound shape and tied. It stays in this position for some time and then a spider comes along and uses it as the framework on whiEh to bulld its web. This converts it into a sort of Brobagandian tennis racquet, and with this the native knocks a fish out of the water as a tennis player would strike a ball out of his side of the court. The webs are as strong as the dip net of ordinary design. In the commercial fisherfes of the world all sorts of tackle are used. Of course, the vast majority of the world's fish suppiy is caught in nets. The most important of these nets is the traw! net. This is a large- mouthed net bag of gigantic proportions, with a beam of about forty feet long. At of this beam is a triangular hoop which sefves the three fold purpose of sinker, beam supporter. and sled runner. This net is “shot” from the stern of the boat and trawled along until it is filled with fish, when it is hauled in The seine is one of the nets to which the populace owes much of its fish supply. It s A plain net With sinker weights at the bottom and cork floats at the top. It may ry in size from the huge. quarter-of-a- mile-long and sixty-feet-wide Cornish pil- chard seine to the little hand net worked by the fisher children along the beach. In the heavy salmon fishing of the northwest the seine and the gill net are much used. The seine is shot in a semicircle across stream, and when It is full of fish it is hauled ashore, horse and steam power often being used in the operation. The fish wheel s also used In the salmon fisheries. It looks much like an overshot water wheel, and over this the fish are shot into a staked enciosure.

Many other kinds of fish also are aght with the gill net Long-iine fishing is another mercial methods by whi fish supply s captured. A sometimes as much as ten miles shot out from the " heavy weight is attached t thrown overboard, and at few feet short lines with hooks on are attached. The long line is stretched scross the tide, and thus the hooks are kept at a proper distance apart.

That the harpoon used in whaling is of very remote origin as whaling itself is shown . by the fact in the book of Job it is asked concerning the Leviathan, “Canst thou i1l his skin with barbed irons® There is a tradition that the Indians of Florida, long before the white man set foot on American soil, would jump on the head of & whale. plug up one nostrii with a wooden peg, then allow him to o to the bottom, and when he came up again plug up the other nostri, and thus suffocate monster.
