NOT his OWN STORY,
What They Are Telling on Representa-
tive Allen at the Capitol.

They are telling a story at the Capitol today
on the Hon. John Allen and his recent coyness
in regard to q denomination. 1t is said that
the statesman from Mississippi had up to the
time OF his nomination short time ago been
expressing his entire disgust of political life,
and had stated his firm determination to re-
fuse rem omination. however pressingly it
might be offered. This coyness is said to
have kept up until the nomination was all cut
and dried for him, when with a very fair grace
he swallowed the unpalatable DOSE One of
Mr.. Aliens political friends in speaking of this
said that Private John Allen reminded him of
a man he once knew who had sworn off drink
ing, saying that he would never, no, never!
touch any vile intoxicants again. For several
days this virtuous fit kept up and the reformed
man sat around home and dilated on
how much better he felt and how degrading
drinking was anyway. Slowly but surely, how
ever, his good spirits departed and finally on
about the fourth morning he said to his wife:
MARY, go to the cupboard and get glass, put
few pieces of ice in it, then take that bottle
of old rye that turned over to you and fill
the glass about half full, put in
also two Jumps of sugar and some
water, stir it up, and then, Mary, put about two
sprigs of mint on top of this. After you have
got all this fixed you bring it to me and if say
l won't drink it, why, Mary, you just make me
take it,

1t was dark. The hour was late. Here and
there glimmered family light in some window
in the little suburban town, but the landscape
was hushed in repose, save for the puff of the
engine Of Chicago and Eastern Illinois train
pulling out from the quiet station where it had
stopped to deposit passenger.
Nobody saw the two sinister-looking men who
climbed on the last steps Of the rear coach at
this station, and the train sped on its way with
its load of human freight, all unconscious of
impending danger.
Suddenly the rear door of that car was
thrown open with . violent conclusion and two
gaunt masked men Of gigantic frame rushed
with drawn pistols down the aisle.

Delaware Bay Sturgeon.

From the Philadelphia Press.
Ten years ago the fishermen OF Delaware and
New Jersey offered prayers that they might be
delivered of the depredations OF the useless
sturgeon. Instead of the supposed evil being
removed a revelation was made Of its useful
ness, and today the sturgeon fishing industry
is more valuable than that of catching sbad.

statements concerning the vocation of sturgeon
fishing.
The Delaware bay is, according to the state
ment of fishermen, the best fishing grounds in
the United States The fish are larger and the
market more easily reached from this point
albany beer is the vulgar name for sturgeon
steaks in the market OF Philadelphia and New

recognition. Only within the last year has IL
found its way on the bills of fare OF popular
