"lilue .ruin" talk artists. "It would do the cockles of their hearl good, and would be like a splash 'Of sail spray on a hot day, in fact as exhilerating as a idunpe in the briny, In many of our local pessimists if they could become imbued with (he solid feeling of confidence of our seafaring citizens, who are ad justing themselves in advance to the furthcoming closed halibut season. '.o whining is heard but actions speak louder than words to quote an old proverb. The opinion is freely expressed, by men who know what Ihey are talking .about, thai what helps to make, business quiet in Rupert is the amount of monev snent in (illegitimate channelsv Future iplatts are being made by halibut J fishermen, and others who get a Jiving from the sea, to divert their activities during the closed feason (o remunerative lines of endeavor, and in site of all I he pessimistic talk then1 is not the slightest doubt but that the walerfonl fraternity will weather the closed season with flying colors and the 'uptown merchants will nrofi accordingly. If all our citizens were as true to themselves, as far as, trading at home is concerned for instance, as is the local fisherman the city would soon come into her birthright." Fish Business From Monday-o Friday 321,-000 pounds of halibut has been marketed on the Fish Exchange.' Americans were bigb at 20.7c and t)c and low al I Be and He. Canadians were high at 18.2o and 8c and low at. I5.Cc and Cc. Arrivals were: Canadian Prosperity A., Seamaid, F.d. I.ipsett, Cape Spencer, M. M.

Wide the halibut arrivals this week liavo not been so heavy as for several weeks past (he prices for both: first and second class American and Canadian fish have kept up well. On Wednesday the Americans received 20.7e und T)c. and the Canadians 18.2c and 8c.

Skandla Engine Scores "She is certainly a wonder," said Capt. 1'elo Jenson, skipper of tli-o Canadian schooner Lysekil upon his return from a niaiden voyage to the northern h'alibtit banks, when asked by tbo WhilTs man about the behavior of the 00 horse power senii-ileiscl Skuri, dia engine with which the local halibut schooner is powered, the Installation work being done iby Akerberg, Thomson & Cn.j l;ld. local agents for the Skandia engine. '"Anil what is more;" continued I'elo with emphasis, "she will 'idle' beautifully us long us there is a jiin.t of oil in the fuel tanks, and moreover she will take her full load at low speed without a murmur." 1'ele was of the opinion that for perfect "idling" thrie was nothing: to touch the jSkandia engine jii tlie .world to day. Hereupon John Wicks, first mate on the Lysekil, chimed in Willi l have fished on many boats in my .lifetime .filled with every conceivable make of engine I and.

On the entire twenty-one day voyage, when variable weather conditions were encountered, and an aver age spe"d of seven miles per hour was mainlained, the consumption of fuel oil amounted to oilly 3', i gallons per hour while the lubricating , oil used only amounted to 75 gallons. Mr. Ol el, the engineer, said that of all (he engines he had handled tlie Skandia had them all beaten for perfection in- "idling," an important feature of a fishing boat engine.

However, lie is recovering nicely and hopes l.o make the next trip of the schooner. The Lysekil left on her second voyage to the northern banks on Monday night and will return about October 17. m Why-Oh Why-Oh Why Why did I buy th.it, boat Why, oh why, oh why?

'Whiskers Made -of . Seaweed According to a newspaper in the southern Stated Hie. stago whiskers worn by heroes ana "heavies" at Hollywood have in .many cases been clipped .from tlie bed of the Pacific Ocean, near, tlio Queen QhurlotIslands. The article says that ii lefr days ago u steamer arrivro in Vancouver WitiLJ 3RD AND FULTON STREET. with a shipment of six Ions of the whiskers lor the Orient. The seaweed is called agar-agar which grows on the bed of the ocean near the islands. A year ago a Japanese company sent a boat across (he Pacific witli two divers to ascertain the. extent of the grass beds. Later a small Japanese community was 'estab lished on one of the islands and the inhabitants drag and fib for the whiskers. The liner quality, of the grass goes lo make -stage whiskers and I lie heavier is made into gelantine, isinglass and kouri cake. Some .Nautical Charlie, the genial manager of the Pacific fisheries, lias gone and lost bis boat but be knows where it is. It sounds funny but its a fact. You see, the little old boat needed a bit of fixing so Charlie put he high on the beach in the vicintiy of 3ow Hay without consulting the tide table. The tide at the beaching ceremony was a particularly 'high one. and the sequel was that Charlie could not un-beach ber for ten days.hence be was without a boat. Some kind friend houM draw Charlie's attention .'to the fact that the tide table has been compiled at colossal cost for the purpose .of giving nfuch valuable information an to the behavior of the sea when approaching the land and receding from it.
