To Montgoleer a Annonity, /France, the invention of the balloon is -credited. It Is said that he was led to turn his attention to balloon making from the following lueldent: A French , laundress, wishing to dry a petticoat quickly, placed it on a baskets, work frame over a stove. To prevent the heat front escaping by the opeulug at . . the top of 'the petticoat she drew the 'belt strings closely together and tied Them. Gradually the garment dried and became lighter, and as the stove ooutinued to give out heat and -rarefy the air coneentrated under the basket . work frame the petticoat began to move and enally rose In the air. This so astonished the laundress that she' ran to her neighbors ana asked tbem to come and witness the strange sight. Montgoifier was among those that came in. The petticoat suspendedin midair suggested greater things to him, and he returned home with "something to think about." He at once began studying works on -differ- ent kinds of atmoepbere. and the in- vention of the balloon was the result. No Excuses Accepted. French officials are said to be par- ticularly strict in their discipline of tourists. A lately returned traveler tells several more or less apocryphal stories to illustrate the 'state of affairs. An American lost his footing, slipped down an embankment and fell into a small, shallow pond. As he scrambled, dripping, up the embankment to the footpath be was cenfronted by an arer, of the law.

'411uns"--This Fish is Found In Only One Poet of VI/astern Waters, Another tale of the "Westin' Wear remains to be told—the slaughter f the sockeye salmon, writea Erezik O. Doig, in McClure's. Like the extine. tion of the bison, this rare food fish, thet once came from, the depthe of the f Pacific in myriads, will aeon, have dila ' appeared because of the overpowering greed of man. Millions of eoekeyee, the kine of the \salmon: tribe, have been canned and 'sent to the far corners of the world. but probable, as many more have been wasted. Wbere once the waters ef Puget Sound •teeneed with this fish • such numbers that legions were crowd- ed out a the water and left sprawling on the beach, now the course of this Anny food material is marked by scarce a specimen. There are several varieties of sal- mon caught on the Pacific emelt, but the sockeye is the monarch of its kind. It is sought after in the brief season of the summer in . which it appear because of its superior eatable quail- • 'ties, Iteis. the backbone of the Pacilic °mist fishing industry, yeteit is caught only in the waters of Puget Sound- and the Eraser River. It is one of the best commercie,1 . ash that is taken in the United States. ' . • When the white man a'rrived on the .Pacifie coast to grasp some of the riches held in store by . the Golclop 'West, the soekeye was fotuid In seals vast numbers, that to.give an estimate of them would sound .ineredible, ao •great were these legions of fish that, as already said, they crowded one another from the water, and countlees thousands; were left sprawling on the shores of the Fraser when the big "runs" were. in .progress. Any obsti•uc-, tion in the course of the stream. was sufficient to cause millions of soak - eyes to' 'smother" in their own ele- ment. The Indians of British Colurns bia fettled it only neceasaiw to stand on the banks of the river and scoop the fish out ou. the -banks in any quantity they wished. • Be . it said, however, to the credit of the -redskin, he took oni a sufficient number for -the Use of hi familyeach season. There was n slaughter then, But with the coming. of the white pioneer the butchery of this rare food - fish . began. The seeker .after richea threw ont such a systain of intricate nets, stretching almost uninterrupted- ly from the Straits - of juan:de Fuca to •the headwatera. of the Fraser, that the palmy days of the sockeye were soon . out short, Into these traps the unsus- pectingfish crowded in . their mad haste to getan their spawning grounds. Although. the nets were -filled toburst- Ing none was'allowed to escape alive.

The -figures for ehe Fraser River pack tell the same tale. In 1901 the canneries of Puget Sound packed more than a million cases of this fish, and the only reason they. did not can mom was because their packiag facilities were not great enough to handle the fish while the run: lasted. girough fish went to waste to make many packs the size of 1906. Yet four years later, in in the year 1905, which should have been as good, under normal condi- ' tions, as that of 1901, the canneryinen y were compelled to Work with might a and inain to get a pack of 847,941; and 6 this, too, when the facilities for pack- ing were better than four years Pre- vious. In 1902, which corresponds iii the cycle to 1906, the cannerymen easily packed 342,947 cases. But in 1606 the fishermen were able to can only 176,452 cases. • When it is known that it takes :ten • Average sockeyes to make a case of • the packed article, it Will be seen that. in the last six years:the canneries of Puget Seim& have killed and preser- ved almost, twenty-eight Million fish.
