fShorc flshermzn on the 24th. The filllOYllillfl opcncd up beautiful and lbflgllf. with n. smooth sea and a bright zclltli-vvcst wind, and by five o'clock almost cvcry fishing boat, from Cable Head to Cash Point, on the Norlh Shore, were on the brlny deep. The day proved to be about ‘the best lobster-fishing day of the season. The writer visited one o! those factories and saw a‘ big table, about l8 x 8 feet, piled up with red ldb- sters. l-lc asked the foreman how many lobsters were there. and he re- plied five thousand pounds. “How many cases will that fill.” he asked. “About twenty-five cases". A pret- ly good day's picking, for, at $30 a case that means $760. That's some industry. There were eight fishing boats at this factory, which means that each boat con- tributed $94 to the pool. Aa to quan- tities the foreman told us that at least one of the boats had landed up to the 24th May, seven thousand pounds. The average for all the boats that day was, approximately, 600 lbs, which. at $8 a cwt., $48. Pretty good wage for two men. In Jnany cases, however, the fishermen ‘lwhc don't own their own gear, fish ion the halves, which would mean “s24 for the two menu day's work. '$l2 a day ls not too bad.

Fishermen Well Found

We were kindly asked by the fore- man, Mr, Hcnnessey, to visit the Cookhousc and partake of their hos- pitality. It was between breakfast nnd dinner. So a breakfast fare was tendered us by the neat and tidy lady cook. It was Friday as all know the 24th was. Thcre were one or two factory workers with us at the table, and even if Friday and no meat there was nicely browned fish-balls. lots of baked beans, both bread and fresh biscuits, good butterfboth molasses and sugar cookies, two kinds of cake and several other recessitles we didn't numerate. We concluded these fishermen and cannery workers were pretty well fed, and was in strong contrast to the bill of fare of some twenty years ago.

Three new scltlenlcnts-Port Said, Ismallia, and Suoz-(witn- later, Port Tcuifik) came into existence as a result of the cutting ofthe Canal. Tiles-r have now developed in- to important lawns. and to them has been added, on the Asiatic bank opposite For".

was ‘l2 fl. and maxllnum depth 27 ft, and it turned nnd twisted in a ntzmncr ilvhich greatly obstructed traffic.

As a r~sult of LDC need to accel- erate transit and meet the ever- growlng domands of the world's shipping, the bends have little by little been straightened out», the Canal itself lms bot-n deepened and widened to lake modern, ships; and. to-dny, of the total length of 106 miles-measuring from jetty-head to jetty-head at clthcr extremity of the Canal-the bends barely occupy 13 miles. the depth has been in- creased to between 33 It. and 42 It, and the width to 19B It, while the whole system is luowlighted by elec- tricity to enable transit to be con- tlnued by night as W011 as by day. What "these improvements have meant in shipping can be gauged from the fact that, whereas in 1870 Lhc average time in transit was 48 hours last ycnr it was only a. few minutes over 15 hours. While a ship of 4,4_14 tons was the largest vessel to go through the Canal in i810 ships of 27,000 tons go through to- day.

Travellers who traverse the Canal on the big ocean-going liners cannot llflflsibly obtain from the high decks of their steamers a. true conception of tho Canal or of its organization. Only from a small vessel, close to the water's edge, ls one able to watch every detail and to appreciate the gigantic character of the work and the perfection of the organization. No ship can enter the Canal without permission, without paying the duea, and without having one of the com. Dilly! pllols on board, and from the time_ft enters to the time it leaves "5 Dwlllon can be ascertained at ally given lnonlcnt.
