FISHING FOR BASS.
|. s,ranre., but True story.

a SfrHDXes4 DuL 1IuC StOIys
A strange story is told on board OF the
steamer City of Hartford, which runs up
the Connecticut river from her landing at
peck Sin. in New York. While she was
living at Pratt's Ferry, few days ago, wait
ing for a messenger from Hartford lsays the
Hartford Ifnaesl, the second mate thought
he would improve the time fishing for bass.
So he got out his lines and hooks and bait,
and made everything ready, lighted cigar
and, casting his line into the water, sat
down patiently to wait for the result. On
board the boat is young colorcd boy, one
of those ambitious Kanakas who came to
San Francisco from the Sandwich Islands
and eventually turned up as a boat hand on
the City of Hartford. Like all OF his am
phibious race, be can remain long time
under the water He took it into his head
to play Joke upon the mate, and divestlng
himself Of his clothes, he jumped into the
water on the opposite side of the boat from
where the mate sat, hopefully but dream
ily awaiting "a bite" Presently that
official was startled "by strong
pull and long pull at the hne; his LIS
slumbering eyes opened wide, his breath
came fast and thick, for he thought he had
captured one of the biggest of the "big
bass which abound in the river. He at
tempted to pull in his hook, but it resisted
all his efforts Then he thought he would
ssplay' the fish for little while; and SO he
would let out few fathoms of line, and
then draw in again. This was repeated
several times, until finally the boy, thinking
he had carried the joke far enough, held on
to the line and came to the surface with it,
Just at the time the mate, with bigger eyes
than he ever exhibited in all his lite before,
expected to land big fish. and SO shouted
to the men on deck. The establishment OF
that of-fsh-al can be better imagined than
expressed when he saw the woolly cocoanut-
head and rolling eyes of the Kanaka emerge
from the waves. At first he.thought he had
caught the id fish" that Victor Hugo
wrote about; then he didn't know what it
was; but finally, as the boy, blubbering and
blowing like a porpoise, struck out for the
boat. and the laughter of some of the hands
who were in the joke rang in his ears, he
acknowledged himself "sold," and treated
all round. This good story is, in every par
ticular, true one
