The Largest Trout Ever Caught In Caiiror-


While fishing for founders in tide water
near Ross Landing, recently, DIR. Jessup
hooked and landed trout that weighed,
when dead, twelve pounds one ounce. II
was one Of the species known as Pacific
Coast brook trout (Salmon Iridea), of which
species, says Mr.. Redding, in a recent
report of the State Fish Commission !:
sit grows rapidly, occasionally weighing as
high as seven pounds when 1t can feed on
salt water at the mouths of coast streams,
and often weighing five pounds when con-
fined entirely to fresh water containing an
abundance of food, as the McCloud river"
DR.. Jessup was using an old line, and had
to use all his skill aud finesse to land this
aquatic monster. Perhaps he would have
lost 1t, after all, had it not been for the
prompt assistance rendered by Mr.. Lindsley,
who got his finger badly bitten In the strug-
gle. The next largest trout ever caught in
this State was taken from lake Merced by
Dave Nesield, and weighed nine pounds.
Dan O'Connell sometimes tells story about
aneleven-pound an trout he caught in Caiaver
as creek, but Dams catch is not generally ac-
eepted as record, the usual formalities of
affidavits from the weighing committee hav-
Ing been neglected.

Houses Built OF Cotton.

OF all substances apparently the least
likely to be used In the construction of a
fre-proof buildins,. cotton would perhaps
take first rank and paper the second; and vet
both these materials, says The Industrial
World, are actually being employed for the
purpose indicated, and their use will proba-
bly, extend. Compressed paper pulp is sue
cessfully used in the manufacture of doors,
wall panellings, and for other similar pur-
poses, with the result that all risk of warp
ing and cracking is obviated, while increased
lightness is attained and the fear of dry rot
is forever banished. Papier-mache, after
having served useful purpose In an uneb-
trusive manner for years as a material for
small trays, paper knives, and other such
light articles, has now suddenly assumed
still more important position in the indus
trial werld. A still more sudden and strik-
ing advance has been made in the employ
ment of cotton as a building material. A
preparation called celluloid, in which cotton
rs a leading ingredient, has been used lately
as substitute for ivory in the manufactu ure
of such articles as billiard balls and paper
cutters; and now Canadian manufacturer
has invented process by which compressed
cotton may be used not merely for doors and
window. frames, but for the whole facade of
large buildings. The enormous and in
creasing demand for paper for its normal
uses as printing and writing material, pre-
vents the extended use of papier mache as a
building material, for which 1t is so well fit
ted In so many ways; but the production of
cotton is practically unlimited, and there
seems to be large field available for its use
in its new capacity as a substitute for bricks
or at least plaster-and wood. Treated
with certain chemicals and compressed, i;
can be made perfectly fire-proof and as hard
as stone, absolutely air and damp proof; and
material is thus produced admirably adapt
ed for lining-internal and external-of
buildings of which the shell may or may not
be constructed of other material, while 1t
easily lends itself to decorative purposes.

Solace for Smokers.


IT. w. A. Hammond in ". T. Herald.
"What is the best time to smoke ?"
"Men should never smoke except after
eating, and preferably after the labors Of the
day are over. Now, cigar taken after eat
ing has not only beneficial, soothing effect
upon the mind, but 1t facilitates digestion,
increasing the amount of gastric juice, as 1
have frequently shown to my class by experi-
ment. Take dog and make gastric fstul
in HIM so as to collect the gastric juice by a
tube, and put little tobacco in his mouth.
Almost instantly the gastric juice begins to
flow. Whatever excites the secretlons of
saliva excite the secretions of gastric juice so
that man actually assists digestion by an
after-dinner cigar, provided he is not one OF
these unfortunate persons to whom tobacco
is poisonous. Personally, never smoke
until about p. m, after my dinner, and
then smske five or six moderately strong
cigars from that until midnight, and know
am wiser, better, and happier man for It,"
SLOW can man tell whether tobacco in
jures him or not?"
''If smoking makes man irritable, fret
full, and he feels as if he would like to jump
