In a recent article on the fishing trade a London magazine gives an interesting survey the immense e | industrial machinery whereby the 1 'world's metropolis gets its supplies of 'sea food. Few of wh realize, haps, as we , Let us In twelve months fish to the value of over £13,300,000 has been landed on the coasts of the United 'Kingdom, something like 250,000 men and boys being constantly em- ployed in obtaining our fish for breakfast, dinner, or supper. Ten years ago only 100,000 men were employed, the total valde of the catch for twelve months being £7,.- 500,000, abundant proof that the "harvest of the sea" is richer than ever it was. The price of fish affects the pockets of millions, for it is one ef the prin- cipal items in the food bill of the average family. It has been estimat- ed that we eat something like 56 pounds of fish for each man, woman, and child évery year. Fried fish shops and fish restaurants have sprung up by, the thousand in the large towns of late years, and some of these shops are sald to be little gold mines to their proprietors. Go to Billingsgate Market and there you will see between 700 and 800 tons of fish being dealt with daily, while one of the most remark- able sights in the world is to be seen at Yarmouth and Lowestoft when f the Scottish herring fleet arrives. In two months the first-hand value of herrings landed at Yarmouth and Lowestoft reached £1,000,000, the earning of each boat averaging from £250 to £1,000, The herring-fishing industry .is the most valuable of all, nearly £4,000,- 000 representing the total value of '} these fish caught in twelve months, although the inexplicable disappear- ance of the famous Lochfyne herring has brought ruin to Tarbert-on-Loch- fyne, which at one time was prob hy the richest village for ffs size in thé United Kingdom. Years ago the fishermen of Tarbert Ahought they had done badly If they did mot ¢isay at least £20 each in one | week, while frequently £40 and £50 Was earned. In a few instances £100 was obtained for a single week's 4 work, and last autumn an old fisher- man was admitted to poor relief who, in those prosperous days, lit his pipe with a: £5 mote as ah act of bravado, Then the "blue," or Lochfyne, her- ring, which brought anything from 158. to £2 per box, suddenly dis- appeared from its haunts. The her- ring now inhabiting Lochfyne is of a very poor and different type, "dnd often not more than a shilling a box can be obtained for them. Hence the decline of Lochfyne fishing. It is, however, from the Dogger Bank, that extensive flat sand bank in the middle of the North Sea, be- tween Britain and Denmark, from which we get the bulk of our fish. The Dogger Bank commences forty miles from Flamborough Head and stretches 320 miles eastward to with- in a few leagues of Jutland. It is between forty and sixty miles broad, and over the sand the water is about fifty to a hundred feet deep. Hun- dreds of steam trawlers owned by large companies are constantly eruis- ing over the bank, netting thousands of tons of fish daily. These trawlers remain constantly at sea, the fish be- ing brought to Billingsgate by what are known as fish carriers--steamers {of trom 250 tons gross, fitted with the most powerful engines. No matter what the weather may be, these fish carriers ply between the fishing fleet on the Dogger Bank and Blllingsgate, There is no ques- tion of putting into port in a gale, or of slowing to balf-speed, for the car- go is perishable, and does not im- ve by being kept unsold for twen- ~four hours, The fish is sorted and boxed on the trawlers, and transferred to the car- tiers by specially designed "boats, very braad and as near unsinkable as possible, and as soon as the carrier is loaded all dispatch is used in pro- ceeding to Billingsgate. On arrival porterfcome on board at half-past five in the morning, when the fish is carried into the market in boxes, and sold by auction to the various fish dealers, fishmongers, and others. Between six and half-past eight the scene is a most animated one. Crowds surge round the auctioneers, each man being eager to secure the very best bargain; for Billingsgate is quite an open market, and has been so for over 200 years. Anyone may go and buy. Fishmongers come with thelr carts, and great hotels and restaurants send their buyers. The selling is practically all over by nine o'clock, although there are many small dealers after that hour----cos- termengers and fish friers, who come for the small fish which the caterers for the wealthy refuse. 2 Apart, however, from the fish car- riers, fish sours into Billingsgate every day by special trains from Such places as Grimsby and far-off Tirso and Wick. The railway companies send special trains from.all these ports, which take precedence even of the express passenger trains, so that the fish may arrive in London in time to be sold at six or seven o'clock in the morning.

TO MEMORY OF BACON. Great Dreamer Anticipated Many Inventions New Accomplished. Oxford, June 12.~Oxiord did honor to the memory of one of her greateat sons, Robert Bacon, who, since his death in this city in 1294, has been shamefully and curiously forgotten. In Bacon the world saw the first man of science in the modern sense of the word J w ho grasped the meaning of ex- perimental science. It was Bacon who anticipated many of today's most {svonderful inventions in ' a prophesy {made before the. practical inventors had even dreamed of their fulfilment. "I'here' shall 1d rowing without oars," he. wrote, 'sailing without {=ails; carriages shall roll along with {unimagined speed with no cattle to drag them; imstruments to fly with, {with which man shall by a spring move artificial wings béating the ah | like wings of birds. a Although in many ways the great man's memory has been and is, in fact, neglected, the establishment of a Roger Bacon Society is now contem- plated.
