lowing strange experiences:

which there were some four hundred
feet OF very strong line. The minnOw

the wafer attr2ct,l the notice OF pass

at once swallowed the minnOw and the
hook. Mr.. Smith PROCEEDED to let out
line and the kiretisher was affOrding
fine sport when all at once a large hawk
concluded to take part in the fun, and at
once caught the kingfsher in its claws.
and at the same time getting the line so
entaDgled about it. wings as to cause
both hawk and kingflsher to fall in the
water. By this time some three hun
dred feet of line had been run off the
reel and when the birds fell upon the
water they were quickly carried by the
current around bend in the creek and
hidden from the view of the astonished
Mr.. Smith. Attempting to reel up his
Zine Mr.. Smith discovered that it was
fast, and upon going down the stream
and around the bend Of the creek was
astOnished to find that seven foot ALI
gator had swallowed both birds and was
fast upon the hook. Procuring heavy
stick Mr.. Smith succeeded in stunning

Morley m Envoy of Peace.

LONDON, Oct. S.-Mr. John Morley, speaking last night at Swindon, ridi- culed the idea that because he had been e Minister he should blindfold himself to the condition of affairs in Ireland.

Every word he had told Englishmen as to the happenings in Ireland was the truth, and he was glad he had helped in the exposure of the magisterial au- fhoritiaa.
