All day-long yesterday at Front street market dpek, a lot of boys w ith hook and line caught numerous small w hite shad and rock fish from four to six inches in length. The oldest fisher men tell us that they never knew the small fry t shad to take the hook be fore, and the fact is none can remember of ever seeing young shad in the river before It has been known that 111 the spring the full grown shad come up stream to spawn and that the small fry, after being hatched, migrate to the ocean where they come to maturity only again to repeat their spawning migration in the the. spring. It has never been known, however, where or how the little shad get back to the ocean, and the circumstance mentioned above is quite a curious one. v he little fish bit, right along yesterday and thi hoys had to be interfered with in their sport' to stop their wanton destruction of this valuable fish.
