4 Big Fl h Story.

A most remarkable story OF trout fish
ing comes from Cape Breton Island, in
the extreme northern part Of Nova
Scotia. The narrator's hero is himself,
and he says that one writer, being tired
Of salt beef, went out to catch trout for
bis table. In that locality the fish are
quite plentiful when the waters Of Lake
Ainslee are sufficiently warm to cause
them to seek cooler retreat, and on
the day in question the conditions must
have been unusually favorable, for the
isherman's only trouble was in the ex-
ertion of landing the numerous catches.
So esger, indeed, were the fish that they
would often Jump above the water to get
the bait, and the sportsman concluded
to facilitate matters by dangling the
hook about foot above the water and
getting on his knees and giving the fish,
es fast as they jumped up, dexterous
box on the ears that sent them sprawling
on the ice. The plan worked admirably,
and the nsrrator's hand was Kept so
busy that lie was finally forced By sheer
fatigue to put an end to the novel
pastime. What is called a conservative
estimate places the quantity of fish Sc
curad at over four barrels. The gentle
man vas probably willing to return to
salt beef before he exhausted the supply
on hand. What paradise for anglers
that particular stream must be! and
what an inventive genius that lone fish

4 Good Thing for Boys.

Manual training is one Of the few good
things that is good for everybody. It is
good for the rich boy, to teach him re-
spect for the dignity Of beautiful work.
It is gord for tbs poor boy, to increase
his facility for handling tools, if tools
prove to be the thing be must handle for
living afterward. It is good for the
bookish boy to draw him away from
books. But, most OF all, it is good fer
the non-bookish boy, too, in showing
him that there is something that he can
do well. The boy utterly unable, even
if he were studious, to keep up in book
knowledge and percentage with the
brighter boys, becomes discouraged,
dull and moody. Let him go to the
work room for an hour, and find that he
can make box or plane rough piece
of board es well as the brighter scholar,
nay, very likely better than his brighter
neighbor, and you have given him an
impulse OF self-respect that is Of untold
benefit to him when he goes back to his
studies. He will be better and bright
er boy for finding out something that he
can DO we'll. Mind you, IL is not )lan1n s
the board that does him good; It IS
plsping the board in the presence Of
other boys who can no longer look down
upon him when they see how well he
can plane. He ro;snt go home after
school ac;;;; plane & board IN the bosom
Of his family, or go to an evening school
to learn to plane, without quarter part,
nay, without any, of the invaluable
effect upon his manhood that it will have
to let him plane side by side with these
who in mental attainments may be his

WOMEN TIE REAL WORKERS,


The women in Russia do tgo-thirds of
the work in the country. There are i'm
merse wheat, oat and hay fields every
where, and il August there Is great
activity in the country. The large ma-
joriSsy OF persons at work are women.
They wear short dresses, plain and
straight, and long piece Of cloth over
their heads like the Arabs. The wheat
IS sown broadcast, and if not cut by the
women with sickles is harvested with the
old-fashioned scythe, which has a two
pound snead and broad, short blade.
From the snead up to the handle there
is wooden bow something ike, in ep-
pearsnce, the half of heavy barrel
hoop. This bow keeps the wheat, ETC.,
from falling back over the scythe haudte
and scattering. I have never yet seen g
man who would deign to gather up, p;rd
and stack the wheat OF oats when once ii
was felled. The women must do tais

GOOD NEWS FROM NEW YORK.
Republican Gains Reported In All
Parts of the State.

New YORK, Sept S.-The New York Mail
and Express recently sent letter to the edi-
tors OF Republican papers throughout the
State asking their opinion of the probable
vote in the coming State and national cleo
tions. Answers have been received from 20
counties, showing widespread feelsng that
Harrison, Morton and Miller will have no
difficulty in carrying the State unless the
Democratic majority in Brooklyn and New
York is at least 10000 larger than four years
ago.lIhe substance of the repliesis as follows:
The editor Of the Ogdensburg Journal says
that the vote in st. Lawrence county will be
2l,OoO, against 19,S07 in 1884, when Blaine re-
ceiyed 13,441 and Cleveland 60S5. He pre-
diets that Harrison will get 14,3OO and Cleve-
land GOO. An estimate based on this would
give the State to the Republicans by from
oo,ooo TO $4,000 majority. The st. Lawrence

"An illustration of this strange fact is

and several deaths followed. Subsequently
the vessel was thoroughly renovated and
