Body of Cortes Rests in Mexico City Church The Mexican government announced not long ago that it is in possession of documents proving definitely that be remains of Hernando Cortes, Spanish conqueror of Mexico, are In the central altar of the church of lesus Nazareno in Mexico City, says I atlifinder Magazine. For more than a century there has been a mystery as to the final disposition of thft remains of Cortes. He died near Seville, Spain, on December 2, 1547, and Ids ashes were sent to Mexico about 15 years later and placed In the hospital founded by him In the Mexican capital. When the agltution against everything Spanish was at its height In 1823 the ashes of the conqueror were removed to the church near the hospital for fear that they might he desecrated. The church, which will he made a Cortes shrine. Is nenr the hospital which still benefits by the will of Cortes. The conqueror of Mexico, like many other Spanish heroes of the time, was neglected after ho returned to Spain. There Is a story to the effect that he once forced his way through a throng around the carriage of Emperor CHarles and mounted the step. Charles demanded who he was. "I am a man,' Cortes replied, "who hns given you more provinces than your ancestors left you cities." Sausages as Tithes In the town of Demen, Germany, It seems, the church is entitled to receive 130 pounds of a certain kind of sausage, known as Mettwurst every' year from the local tithe-payers. Recently the latter refused to supply the ration of sausage. The church invoked the aid of the law. and the tithepayers had to deliver the customary Mettwurst. But the church was still unsatisfied?the sausage, It was al, leged, was not up to standard?it contained too'much beef. Mettwurst has always been a source of trouble in Mecklenburg-Schwerin. In many parishes the local clergyman was entitled to so many ells of the sausage from his parishoners. He always got the right length, hut- if he were unpopular, the Mettwurst was of the smallest possible thickness, there being nothing in the bond regarding its diameter.

History ?f Ma.aachu.ott, ,?,ol|, .trongly ?f tho ?,h industry. J,' before the firat permanent ,uc ""it, i?

When the Pilgrim, landed with only ? ?f " y soon found that they had hi? , "i t f,<h Sl'a to "Upplv lubl-- THeir firat free school '"aialained froni'j.rocec-d, of fisheries. Massachusetts handles the latest combined fresh, suited and frozen volume of f,sh products of any stato he 1 n,on- The year's catch is t) mated to be worth $20,000,000. Boston is the greatest fresh fish producing port in the country, while Gloucester is the largest salt fi*}, port in he world. The fishing industry :n u Ita> State furnishes employment to 10,000 men. The "banks" are large, comparatively flat areas submerged from two to 200 fathoms. It is there, several miles offshore, that the "ground fisher/' is carried on.. This is the backbone of the industry-?catching cod, haddock, hake, pollock, flounder and halibut at or near the bottom of the sea. Mackerel, swonjfish and other species are caught at the surface. Ground fish are caught in three different ways. The first is by hand lines, the method originally used. Here the men fish from the rail of the schooner. The second is the dory method. A number of small boats or dories are carried on the schooner to the banks, where they are swung overboard with one or two fishermen in each. The schooner plies up and down the lin? of dories, which may extend for several miles, collecting the fish. Should a sudden fog settle down the dorymen are in grave danger. The third and most modern method is by trawling. Trawlers are wood or steel vessels from 100 to 150 feet long, propelled by steam engines or I crude oil motors. A large, flattened conical bag, some 150 feet long and 100 feet wide at the mouth, is dropped overboard and towed slowly beJ hind for one or two hours. At tho end of the run the laden net is taken aboard and the fish dumj^i. The process may then be repeated. In all cases the fish when brought on deck are sorted, cleaned and packed in ice. When the boats reach port the fishes are turned over to the dealers. The bulk of the catch is marketed fresh, that is, repacked in ice and shipped in refrigerator cars to all parts of the country. Or the fish may be frozen (in some instances they are as hard ds a rock in less than 20 minutes), or they may be smoked, salted or canned. In mackerel fishing, which is done at night, the fish is betrayed by the phosphorescent glow it makes on the surface. Weighted nets are used, one end being tied to the schooner and the other towed by. a "seine" boat which, some dsitance away, encircles the schooner. Swordfish range anywhere from 100 to 1,000 pound i, though the average size caught is about 200. As they come to the surface to sleep In the warm summer sun jiixii^r vmv/ * .T t 1 ."
