McLuin of tbj United StuU-i cxififnilata at NiKsan, in tlit Bahama inland, in respond to the d.wtion of the tutoi department, hag furulnhed nn intt'rHting paper m the ijiotie trado of thn Bahaman, in which Hip viilui? fit lh industry and the tncth oU of I'atchin the fiKingtn are givi'n. Thn vphw-Ih employed lu the trada ara until, varying fnim five to twenty-five tona, sliMip or choom;r ripped, and are built in the local shipyards The con struction and repair of those vemelg con titute an important industry in itself. They have small cabins for aleeping pur posed. The cooking in done on deck. About 500 of these vessel are engaged in gathering sponges. The number of persons gathering sponges in the Bahamas, handling them and preparing them in various stages for market. Is from B.000 to 0,000. all of whom, except the shipowners, brokers and slippers, are black people. Hands employed in clipping, washing, packing and preparing finally for shipment abroad get from fifty to seventy-five cents per day of ten hours. The amount earned by the men who go fishing de pends entirely on the uumber of sponges obtained. The owner of the vessel fits her out, Rt his own expense, and the profits of the vny' ere d:wJcd np in share, anions the owner, the master and the men Tbcy arc never hired by tho tnoi.th, nor do they ever get specified wages. The most that ran be said is that the men make a tolerable living, and the sponge lisheriiuin who earns over :J00 a year is tueerreptlon HOW KI'O.NOES ARE OATIII'.KKD. The method of gathering sponges is by mean of iron hooks attached to long poles By using a waterghtss the fisher man run readily discover the sponges at the linroin, and then by the pole and hook t n bring up those he may select, leaving the smaller ones untouched. Some sponges adhere firmly to the bed of the m-a, while others are not attached at all. tiiee latter being known as "roll ers." . - Alxnit ten yeurs go an attempt waa made to introduce dredges, but it was found that their use was likely to ruin the beds, became in passing over the bottom they dislodged and brought np not only the good sponges, but the young and unsalable ones as well, kill ing the spawn and working great mis chief. Such an outcry was raised against dredging that an act was pau forbid ding it When brought to the vessel the sponges are at once spread upon the deck and left exposed to the snu for several (lays, during which time the animal matter that covers the sponge gradually dies Tina is a black, gelatinous sub stance of a very low order of marine life, which, during the process of decay. emits a Most objiTtionahle odor. I he vessels visit what is called the kraal once a week to land the load from the deck The kraal is an inclosed pen, fenced iu by sticks of wood ss l al low a frei circulation of water through it. ti'milly built in a sheltered and shal low bay or rove, on one of the cays near by TiiR citop or 16IK). The sponges are placed in the kraal and h ft to be soaked and washed by the action of the water from four to six days, when they are taken out and benten with sticks until the decayed covering Is en' in ly removed. Having been sub ject! (I to this C01ira of eiutmuiu, soak inj. beating and washing, the sponge are quite clean and are taken on board the vel, packed iu the hold, conveyed to NaHii, and in this condition are sold in the local market. Of the larger sponge a catch of 0.000 or of the smaller one4 7,.V)0, would be ronsid-- a fair lot. Occasionally a cargo of from 12.PKJ to 15,000 large pongc has been - rough t in, but this success is exceptional. The principal varieties gathered in tb Butuiuis ar a follows: Boat, a-raaa. glove, hardhead, reef (white and dark), velvet (abaco and cay), sheep wool, and yellow, of which the mnjt valuable Is sheep wool. The totul export in 18D0 reached over 600,000 pounds, valued at tHl.VM. The crop of that year was above the average, being really the most valuable one lu many years. Of that crop there were shipped to the Onited Mate 7o,W0, valued at f'JM.OOO. Bahama rponge are not considered very gxl, but a ready market is found for sit tlmt ran be obtained, and at con stantly improving prloua. There are no indications of any failure of the supply. -Philadelphia Ledger. Au Acrokalls Klttnu. A mjC kitten follows its mistress all over Hie house when she is at work.
