How 4 FISHERMAN CAUGHT 4 HICKORY
SuAD.-Tbe favorite fisherman Of the Rich
mond and Danvile Railroad Company has
recently had the pleasure OF taking hlcko-
rv-sbad from his hook. 1t happened some
what in this way: On Friday or Saturday
he told a number of bis friends at the Dam
vile depot, in rhts city, that hewas satisfied
black buss could be caught in the falls here,
and he was determined to be one OF the
fortunate men. He took his rod and line,
and, after procuring a 1--we mlnnoW, went
ont upon the rccks between the Dan
Vile bridge and the Haxall mills, Wnere
he made it fast to "a sappllng on
an island. dropped the m!nnoW ana the
line into the wafer, and then went back 10
his work at The dcI0t. A friend OF TINS
fisherman, who is sometimes Wag' had
watched the proceedings, and after a"hile
he went over to where John Wade the
Fl sherman was hauling his seine and got j
fine. large hickory-shad. Returning to the
MACE where our hero's line wss in the Wa
fer he took it up, cut off about half o! the
minnow. so rs to give it the appearance OF
having been bitten off, hooked on the hlcko-
ry-shad, and then returned to his ONCE at
the derct.
Not many hours later the fisherman went
out to look after his tackle. and seeing lie.
pole bert down was satisfied he had indeed
caught bass. He hurried across the ROCKS,
falling twice while going out, hauled sp
and fsalnd there was IA ash On his line sure
enough. Aha!" said he, calling to I'LL
friends, ~ haven't got q bass, but Py'
caught hickory-ssad." He took on hi
lima and rod, and came away satisfied afte
arbile, when some one told him ths' Joke
ho started out TO hant for the man H!,o bat
