BRUSSELS.
Rev. Dr. Oaten resumed his pulpit
work in the Methodist Church on Sun-
day last after five week illness.
Wm. Jewitt had the misfortune to
fall in his yard breaking two ribs, one
of which punctured a lung,. As the old

dent like that gives him quite a shake
up but we hol)e he will soon be o.k.
Death came with startling sudden-
ness to Mr. Samuel Crawford, of Brus-
sels, at Exeter on Wednesday of last
week. He had just driven over with
his wife from Bussels, 34 miles, to at-
tend the funeral of Mrs. Crawford's
sister, Mrs. Kay, and arriving a little
late, had just time to go in and look at
the remains, and shake hands with Ma-
gistrate Kay. Going out into' the hall
he fell over, and was dead before he
could be lifted up. He was 80 years
old, and a physician who was called
found that death had resulted from
heart failure.

- "'ATdRQBATIC FISH,'
Leaping Powers of the Tarpon, the
-Salmon and the Trout.
A considerable number of fishes are
remarkable for their leaping powers,
and several of these performers are
on that account specially favored by
anglers, since by jumping clear of
the water, in some cases many times.
in succession, they tax the fisher-
man's skill more severely than fishes
less active, and thereby give added
zest to their capture.
Members of the salmon family
are universally famous for their high
jumps. The sea trout, which. gladden
Devon rivers under the name of "liars
vest peal," are untiring acrobats. and
a fish of a pound weight will more
than once jump several times its own
length out of water when hooked be-
fore coming to the net. Unless the
fisherman responds by promptly low-
ering the tip of his rod, the fragile
gut i$ likely to part, and as it is pert
of every sportsman's creed to appre-
ciate his pastime in proportion to the
difficulties it presents, the sea trout
stands high in the angler's estimation.
This readiness to jump when hooked
distinguishes the lively spring salmon
from the more sluggish run of an
autumn fish. which rarely clears the
water in its efforts to throw out the
maddening hook.
Precisely why these October fish
should be less nimble than those of
March has never been satisfactorily
explained, but the higher tempera-
ture of rivers in the fall of the year
may perhaps have something to do
with their conspicuous indolence.
At their best salmon can jump at
least ten feet above the surface, a feat
achieved by slapping the water with
the powerful tail and flexing the body
until the head and tail all but meet.
The association of the maximum of
vigor and activity in fishes with a low
temperature enjoys wide acceptance.
but should be received with caution
in view of the fact that nowhere per-
haps in the world's seas are jumping
fish more continually in evidence than
in the Gulf of Mexico.
The grandest of all these. Teepees is
the tarpon, otherwise "silver king,"
or "grand ecaille," a monster her-
ring, which may measure six or seven
feet and weigh a couple of hundred
pounds.
Where the Jews Are.
Up to January 1, 1912, the grand
total of Jews, according to official
statistics, was 11,817,783. Of these
1,894,400 were in America. and 1,062,-
000 in New York. Elsewhere in the
world, according to the Lutheran, is
this distribution: "Asia, 522,635; Af-
rica, 341,867; Australia, 17,106, and
Europe, 9,942,266. Russia had 5,110,-
548; Austria, 1,224,899; Hungary, 851,-
378; Germany, 607,342; Turkey in Eu-
rope, 282.277; Roumania, 238,275; Eng-
land, 105,988; Holland, 105,698; Prance
almost 100,000; Italy, 52,115. New
York City had 1,062,000; Warsaw, 204,-
712; Budapest, 186,047; Vienna, 146,-
926; London, 144,300; Odessa, 138,935;
Brooklyn more than 100,000; Berlin,
98,893; Lodz in Poland, 98,671; Chi-
cago, 80,000; Salonica and Philadel-
phia, each 75,000; Paris, 70,000; Con-
stantinople, 65,000; Vilna, 63,841; Am-
sterdam, 60,065; Jerusalem, 53,000;
Kichenev, 50,237; Minsk, 45,000; Lem-
berg, 44,258, and Bucharest, 40,533."
Bringing the Sea to Rome.
Projects for making Rome a seaport
have been discussed for years past.
One of these is to lay out a seaport of
a thirty-five foot depth near Castel
Fusero, formed by running two jet-
ties out into the sea for some distance.
as at the port of Ymuiden, Holland.
From the port will lead a ship canal
15 miles long and 200 feet wide and 27
feet deep. At Rome adequate shipping
accommodations will be laid out in
the river below the city, and this will
be connected with the navigable part
of • the 'Tiber by a system of. docks.
It will cost about $15,000,000 to carry
out the project.
Willing to Conform.
"Richard," said his precise wife in
an undertone, "it is all right for you
to avoid elaborate ceremony in intro-
ducing the guests to one another, but
I wish you would not say, 'Mr. Throg•
son, shake hands with Mt. Wigmore.'
I do not approve of that style of
introduction."
"All right, Amaryllis," heartily re-
sponded the host. "I'll cut that out.
Hello, Flatbush ! Awfully glad to see
you. Mr. Flatbush, wiggle flippers
with Mr. Skimmerhorn."
Not a Bluff.
"You're not going to punish me,'
are you, father?" inquired a youth
in circumstances that threatened to
be trying.
"Of course I am," was the grim
encouragement he received. "Didn t
I tell you this morning that I'd set-
tle with you for being so rude at
the breakfast table?"
"Yes, father," came the whimper-
ing reply, "but—but I thought it was
just a bluff like when you say you'1!
settle the grocer's bill very Satur-
day night!"
Buy Coal Scientifically.
As soon as a branch of the Dom-
inion Government service has been
organized to attend to it, all coal will
be bought on technleal specifications
framed up so as to ensure the de,iv-
cry of the partieu:ar kind and quality
of fuel contracted for, throueo the
