In this way I dls covered many characteristics which wero before unknown. I saw, as every observer must see, the destructive diemenls that are warring against fish, nod I realized that unless something were done, the life in the streams of this country would beconio extinct. To counteract this disastrous end became my life work, and I am happy to say I have seen its accomplishment." "Were you successful on the start?" "No indeed. Up to that tl n nil aril ficial attempts to hatch and raiso fish from the spawn had tailed, and I was compelled tn experiment In an entirely new manner, The work was a careful and tedious one,but I finally succeeded, and to-day I am able In hatch and raise fully seventy-five per cent of nil spawn."

Ho had known Jorephus from bis childhood and would willingly havo sacrificed much to bring him to his senses. Adylce and example had been useless, and ho now perceived clearly lhat Joe had got so much of Buffalo Bill on the brain, that, like the Irishman, ho hod become "blue mouldy for wont of a batln' ." Tbcophrnstus Makepeace was the name of this man, and his character was formed upon the name. When "Frasly" as the boys called him found the dregs f stale lager trickling down his checks and shirt collar, he looked at Joseph quietly in tho eye and said, "Joe, I don't like doing it, but it must be done.

Yes, he docs, said the attendant friends, as they shoved their "bluffer" in upon ms antagonist. Joe, with his head down and bis arms beating Ibe air, rushed upou tbe foe. The first rush was stopped by bis nose which came into a railroad collision with tho lelt band of the enemy, and before a word could be uttered Jue was sprawling ut ult lengtn on 1110 noor. iiiougn 1111 body was down Ills blood was up, some 01 11 now- ng in streams from a mutilated nose.

Tho third lime ho tried to kick his "adver sary' 111 tbe stnmach.but Frastystood nimbly nut nl the way, and, with two well directed elliirls Irom rlgbl and left, sent Joe bliud rd, bruised and utterly demoralized against the far corner of the room.
