The peculiarities of the pres
ent fishing season have prob
■ ably done more to belittle the
arguments of the opponents of
the fish trap than anything
that could be conceived in the
minds of the supporters of
that form of fishing.
The run of fish has been so
fdifferent from the average, and
the weather has been so bad
that had the canneries been
forced to depend on seines a
| lone for their raw material they
would not have gotten a good
'tart by this time. For instance,
the Pure Food Cannery has go!
ten up in the neighborhood of
I fifteen thousand cases of fish
thus far this season, and nave
* been prepared al all times to
f -h from any source, trap
or seine. In spite of this fact
they have not been able to !• y
seine fish f r ten percent, of
he cans now filled. Then a

A humorist on the Seattle
Post-Intelligencer, speaking of
the newly-appointed assistant
secretary of the interior, says:
“When Bo Sweeney gels to
Washington and someone goo;
in to Secretary I.ane to com
plain that some irrigation ditch
somewhere is leaking and I.ane
says ‘Tell it to Sweeney.’ and
the fellow goes in to Sweeney’s
office and says ‘llello. Bo.’
there isn't going lo be any
more culture and refinement
in our national life.”

Astronomical.
Some curious nml interesting astro
nomical phenomena are recorded In
the old Chinese annuls which go back
to a great antiquity. Id CS7 B. C. a
night is mentioned without clouds and
without stars. This may perhaps re
fer to a total eclipse of the sun. but
if so the eciipse is not mentioned in
the Chinese list of eclipses. In the year
141 B. C. it is stated that the sun and
moon appeared of a deep red color dur
ing five days, a phenomenon which
caused great terror among the peo
ple. In 74 B. C. it is related that a
star as large as the moon appeared
and was followed in its motion by sev
eral stars of ordinary size. Tbis
probably refers to an unusually large
bolide, or fire ball. In 33 B. C. a fall
of meteoric stones Is recorded.
The First Gold Certificate.
Piracy on the Mediterranean caused
the creation of the first gold certificate,
according to most authentic records.
Rome bought wheat in Egypt, while
Egypt had to pay tribute money for
the maintenance of the Roman army.
To ship gold for these payments was
to tempt the ingenious pirates who In
fested the eastern Mediterranean. It
was probably some able money lender
who thought of the scheme of having
the wheat importer take his gold to
the Roman bank, which bad a branch
in Alexandria, and getting certificates,
which the pirates would not dare go
Into Alexandria to attempt to cash.
The Egyptian tax collector got his cer
tificate from the Alexandria bank and
sent it to Rome, where it was honored.
—Wall Street Journal.
Unravel This.

•Tie Is my second husband. My first

“Then this man Is not your bus
band?" asked the magistrate.
“Oh. yes. he is." was the reply. "I
was my first husband's second wife.
His first one is still alive That is
