UNSUCCESSFUL fishing is ancient in its
origin and is in much repute. "Simon Peter
saith unto them, 60 fishing. They say I'M
to him, We also go with thee. They went
forth, and entered into ship Immediately;
and that night they caught nothing. : 'Twould
have been the same had the ship been the
Gate City ferry boat, and the time yesterday
forenoon and the place the "sloughs" across
the river. We tried it. There were plenty
of bites-musqmtoes. We all sat down on
acutely sharp rocks and practiced how not to
do it. We looked intenty into the water
nothing in it." Jack and 10 caught google
eyes, Tom caught fine 'cat," we caught
headache. We also caught ssgarr." Do
You know what that is? IT'S like musquito
or board at hotels-'tis principally "bill'
We didn't reduce it to possession. 1t only
came to the surface of the water. Not liking
the appearance Of things it went back. Itun-
baited our hook regularly every two and one
half minutes thereafter without impaling
itself. That is an interesting way of fishing if
well practiced You can cali the 'sgarr-lla"
style We amt partial to it. There are fine
fish caught daily in the river, however. Wind
your way early in the morning to good spot
and, beside the recreation, your labors will
very probably be we'll rewarded. This is the
experience Of others, not ours. Ysu may
succeed better than St. Peter or this unfortn-
nate experimentalist.

SOMEWHERE in our vicinity there is an ac-
cordeon. You know what that is lis a
machine with keys, which in the hands of evil
spirited individuals, and by process of com
preston and extension is made to produce
greater medley of more villainous sound than
any other instrument on record. Except a
barrelergan. And it is more infamous than
the latter, size considered. Then there is
always monkey with the organ; that makes
it interesting to the naturalist You might
say it was monkey that plays the ACCORDION;
vile SANDER on the monkey. That is severe
and we take it all back. But we think it
sin to play the accordecn. Never was instru-
being played at all. The inventor of it be-
came misanthropic, we apprehend. and died
of remorse. If he didn't he should The
plaques Of humanity usually meet merited
retribution We can't think of any punish
ment too severe for the inventor aforesaid,
except TO be forced to listen forever to his
invention. That were beyond the power of
spirit to endure The instrument that makes
discord in our community is one of the worst
of Its kind. 1t is chronic dsagreeableness.
Commencing on the key Of misdemeanor, it
goes through all the stages Of musical Grim
nality-it gives q diapason of atrocty.
