OWEN AT FERGUS FALLS.

He Speaks to the People and Of
MIR. Lathrop.
Special TO the Globe.
FERGUS FALLS, Sept. 25.-S. M.Owen
addressed the Alliance county conven-
ton in this city yesterday afternoon and
made an admirable address. 1t was
practical, business-like statement of the
issues before the people, which carried
much weight. Mr.. Owen stated to
GLOBE correspondent this morning that
the last vestige of the charges against
John Lathrop had been wiped away by
discovery made within a day or two,
namely, the discovery by Mr.. Lathrop
that the cause of the discrepancy i'm his
accounts. and the complaints from al
lianceS of money not accounted for by
him, was in an SSS item received by
him from the former secretary, Mr..
Haigh. Mr.. Lathrop took the SSS,
gave Haigh a receipt for it. and
then sent out the receipts to
time to do. The SSS was money paid to
Haigh at or about the time of the annual
convention. The trouble arose from the
fact that Mr.. Lathrop signed his own
name to the receipts given the subordi-
nate alliances, while on his books the
amount was charged as received from
Mr.. Haigh. Mr.. Owen expressed his
full confidence in Mr. Lathrop, though
admitting that he was unmethodical.
He also spoke in strong terms of the
impolitic and unsatisfactory course of
the Great West, and Mr.. Donnelly. That
newspaper, ne considered, had done the
Alliance cause irreparable injury by its
many bitter articles, and the feeling of
uncertainty which it had created among
farmers; with the result that there was
NO campaign fund and no prospect of
any. Mr.. Owen said he expected to be
in the field from now until election. In
his speech he made no allusion to the
Alliance central committees dissen-

and Blue Fish.

Bridgeport Special New York Sun.
Fishing for bass and blues is the pop
ular sport now among the owners of
small craft, and parties of dozen or
more ale made up daily among the sum-
mer visitors and residents. Blue fish
ing began earlier than usual this sea-
son, and the catches are very large. 1t
is not unusual for an expert to capture
100 fish in day. and ladies are delight
ed with the sport of hauling in a long
trolling line with two-pOund fish on
the stout hook. The grounds are so
convenient to Bridgeport harbor that
sportsmen have only to sail two OF three
miles to find all the fun they can attend
free from the ocean roll that ladies are
seldom seasick or frightened.
Bluefsh are now caught all along the
sound from Stamford to New London,
and it is expected that they will remain
nets, who make business of bluefish-
ing every season, say their catches are
so large as to make the industry un-
profitable. Two months ago bluefish
were sold in the market for II cents a
pound; now the price is s cents. A big
schooner came into the harbor last
week. with $4,000 bluefish in her hold,
and the market being fully supplied,
her skipper sent a dozen Deddlers
through the city retailing big fish for 5
cents pound.
Bass fishing is great sport for those
who prefer to anchor their boat and
use a drop-llne. Soft-shell crabs are
used for bait, and the fish run from
one to nine pounds in weight. More
skill is needed to capture these beau
ties than in hooking blues. Blacklist
are abundant here at any point where
there are big rocks on the bottom.
The fish gather in big schools to bite off
the barnacles on the rocks, and are
always tempted to take in delicious
clam or fiddler, though it hides stout
hook. Some of the blackfish caught
off Bridgeport and Black Rock weigh
ten or twelve pounds each. The most
gamy fish for rod fishing is the yell
low fin, OF weakfish, and 100 fish is not
an uncommon haul to take at tide.
Nowhere on the coast can more con-
venient fishing places be found, for one
may hire rOWboat and start from the
very center of the city, and pull to the
most prolific places in less than half an
hour.
The members of travelling opera

at the bathing pavilion they entertain
crowds of admirers by their graceful
dives and agile performances. They re-
main in the water from four to five
hours on stretch, and then douse
themselves with fresh water and go

USING TROUT FOR BAIT.

1t Was the Only Thing the Musk
alIonge Wanted and They Got 1t.
New York Sun.
There are several small lakes on the
headwaterS of the Monlstique river in
Michigan, where there are enormous
pickerel and muskallonge. Brook trout
are abundant in the streams running
into them. Fishermen have always
lamented the failure of all their efforts
to capture muskallonge in these lakes
with any of the known live bats
or lures. but party of anglers
who were bait fishing near one
of the lakes this season discovered
that the muskallonge would not accept
any of the ordinary bait simply because
tastes. One of the party of fishermen
referred to, after eXhauSting all his skill
lrying to capture muSkallOnge, went
to the mouth of one of the streams that
empty into the lake and made few
casts for trout. He hooked small one
and was Keeling it when there came
sudden swoop and splash in the water,
and down went the trout and the fisher
mans leader in the whirlpool that
marked the spot where the trout had
been.
had swept trout and leader away, and
he kept alive the next siX-iHch trout he
caught, hooked it to his muskallOnge
hook and tossed it into the lake, where
he thought muSkallonge would be apt
to lie. The trout had scarcely sunk be-
meath the surface when it was raven
Ously seized, and the fisherman had the
satisfaction of landing fifteen-pound
muskallonge. By using small trout for
bait in that way twelve large muskal
longe were killed in short time by the
party. At the same time every other
kind of bait was used at the same spot
without one muskallonge noticing it.
At any time during the party'S stay
there muskallonge could be caught with
trout as bait, but at no time with any
thing else. The big fish were con-
noisseurs. The stream furnished them
with the most delicate of food, and
they refused any morSel less choice.
Trading off trout for muSkallOnge
seemed like decidedly unsportsman-
like thing to do, but the knowledge OBJ
tanned was worth the sacrifice.
Another lake in that vicinity has no
where more than four-fOot depth of
water, and it has bottom so soft that
pole twenty feet long will not fathom
Its depth. This lake is literally full of
big pickerel. They bite at almost any
thing, but the moment they are hooked
they dive into the soft bottom and go
down SO deep that sometimes they have
to be pried out with poles. 1t is no I'M
common thing to mine them out from
depth of four feet. The lake bottom is
not mud or mire, but a pulpy mass re-
Sembling tapioca pudding.

An old man with a great deal of straw
hat and perseverance was fishing from

ton about luck.

Operators on the Mackey Rail-

TERRE HAUTE, Ind. Sept. 25.-Some
time ago federation was formed of q
number of the operators and clerks en-
ployed on the Mackey lines with view
OF demanding an increase of pay. Last
Sunday the organization was completed
at Evansville, with the following Off
GERS; B. M. Hopkins, of Fort Branch,
president, and w. D. Sears, Princeton,
secretary and treasurer, and o. P. Will
1amS, Princeton, corresponding secre-
tary. Mr.. Hopkins is the company's
agent at Fort Branch. It was given
l'out as the intention to make a demand
for increased pay and give the company
i've days to consider in, but yester-
day. learning that w. D. Sears
3 had been discharged, the men
decided to strike at once.
A demand was made on the
IAN increase in pay, about Is per cent.
The cOmpany's officials replied that the
matter would have to be taken under
aadvisement, and last night the men
struck. 1t is presumed that they do
2 not long belong to the federation. At
1850, however, Mr.. Hopkins telegraphed
to the boys on the Evansville q Terre
Haute, and Evansville & Indianapolis
to go to work, pending a conference to
be held with General Manager Saul at
Evansville within a week. The COM
pany claims that Sears was not dis
charged because of his membership
with the federation, but for other good
reasons, and the men assert the con-
trary. There was some little delay to
freight trains during the morning, but
none to passengers.

A Whale in a Small River.

A dispatch to the Baltimore Sun from
Princess Anne, Nd, says: 1.-The in
habitants of MaddoX's island, in ManO-
kin river, Paramount district, Somerset
county, had novel experience in cap
turing a whale Monday afternoon.
Several boys who were swimming first
saw the monster. They were very much
alarmed and ran on shore and notified
the residents of the island. When they
arrived on the scene the whale was
aground and was lashing the water very
viciOuSly with his tail, his head being
anchored on the bottom.
A cOlOred man went out in boat and
tried to tie the tail of his whaleship
with rope. While doing this the
whale struck the boat with his tail, up
setting the craft and throwing the col
Ored man about twenty feet in the air.
The besiegers afterward succeeded in
killing the monster with axes and clubs.
They then hauled it up Oh the shore. 1t
was black. 1t measured 3615 feet in
length, and was as large as half
hogShead. Some of the bones were cut
out of its mouth and brought to Princess
Anne yesterday. When found aground
the whale was in three and half feet
of water. 1t is supposed by many to
have Strayed from its comrades into
the Manokin. There have been no Sc
we're storms of late to drive it here. Ii
is great curiosity and has been visited
by hundreds of persons. W. +. Ford

weighed an even pound and a half. The

and Jones hasn't had a moments peace
