A reporter (if the Press called on Superintendent Worth, who has charge ot' the Potomac, hatchery, and requested him to give some in formation in regain F the work done t here. "This station." replied Mr. Worth, '-was established in Withou' going into a detailed method of the taking of spawn, I will say that in 1SS( wo hatched ,".o. OHO, (MO of fry: in 1SS7, 00,000, onO: in lssS, so. 000,000, and this year we hope to hatch 100,000.000. All this is without increase of force, and is the result of experi ence and better regulation. Our collecting berth extends from Fort l'oote to Indian Head, a distance of about sixteen miles. We get eggs from six fishing shorefl and from forty or fifty gill net fishermen." When does the date of tak eggs begin T" "The average date for collecting the first spawn is about the loth of April: the largest production is about May l,and from that date up to May L.'."i we receive from two to five million eggs per diem. We send our spawn takers to the several fishing landings to collect eggs, but the gill fishermen soon learn how to do the work, and they bring into the station a large amount of nice eggs, and the ex penses of the station is about i,()00 per annum." "Where are theeggs hatched !" "Here, in this building (Armory building:. Theeggs are collected from the fishermen and kept at the station in agitated water, after being impregnated with the milt of the male, uu t ii t he li ne or forma- ' of tion of the lish can be seen with the naked eye. The impregnated eggs are brought up nere uau ny tne steamer Corcoran, and the hatch ing process is completed in those glAss-lined tanks you will see in the other room. When the fry are large enough they are placed in the shipping cans and are ready for distribution." "What is the percentage of loss , u hatching the eggs V ' Oh, there is an immense gain over the natural process of hatch ing when it is considered to what dangers from predatory fishes, and so on, the spawn ia subjected when lie.spositcd in a natural method. We estimate that of the eggs we receive t he percentage of loss is at the lowest -5 per cent.: that is to say, for every 100 eggs we receive we deposit seventy-live shad fry. I f the eggs deposited by the female shad in a natural way were to hatch out a similar percentage the streams would soon tie blocked up w;:h the masses of the fish. Now you can see what we have done and what we may expect in the future. Six or eight years ago, at the Fort Washington station, there were collected only o,000,0()0 or 10,000, 000 eggs annually. We collected so, ioo,O0O last year, aud we ex pect to collect in a year or two from 100,0no,noo to 12.., 000,000 per aunum. Recollect, too. that this increase, has been accomplished with no increase of the working loree.' ' Where are the most of the fi y deposited T" Well, we send some away, but the great majority of the fry from this hatchery are deposited annually in the tributaries of Chesapeake Pay, and the result has been seen in the gradual aud steady increase of the run of t-had for the past ten years.'' "Ad old i iver fishei mau the other day told me that while the iu creased nin of shad in recent years might, in some degree, be due to the effort of the lish com m ission, yet he thought the run of lish was in cycles. The shad run had in creased, it was true, but so did the herring run, and the commission had planted no herring fry in tho river. How is that f" said the le porter. "1 might answer that," said Mr. Worth, "like the Yankee, by asking another question, 'Why is it that the streams of the Pacific coast are now abuudantlv stocked with shad, com mi s.s niiig wit the rate t wetity 1 progie.ss t he past ed at t h n um of and one millions.

In Hickory Mountain tawnship he cap tured and destroyed two illicit stills. and next day he cut up two more on ' Deep river, in Gulf township. Thence he proceeded to Montgomery connty. where he captured and cut up another, making five stills destroyed in three j days. After destroying the one in j Montgomery county he spent the night at a house about five miles distant and , next morning his buggy was missing , He tracked it about two miles and there found it cut all to pieces, having been destroyed no doubt by the owners of the capture d st ill. fOSl .flPTION Cl'RKI).
