 We thought the fish story" printed on the fourth page pretty good sized one for starter" but before we had the outside pages printed on Saturday, reports reached us that colored boy at Falls Village, while fishing for suckers, had caught trout weighing five pounds and four ounces. Feeling that this story If true) rather put ours in the shade, we proceeded to investi- gate it. and enquired of several (other- wise) very reliable men, who assured us that the story as we had it was correct, but our curiosity being aroused we made up our mind to sec the boy that caught the big fish, and after a good deal of enquiry and walk of about two miles, we found 8 boy. evidently about six years old, that answered the description, and in response to our questioning he produced from his coat pocket the only trout that he had caught this season, which weighed just four ounces. On returning to the village we learned that they had weighed the boy with the trout in his pocket. Now we are willing to publish all the "big'' fish stories that come to us, but as a guarantee of "good faith' we shall k.-k.
 nied by the fish in question.
