that / should do so again In the same
circumstances.
had been fishing all day with in
different success, had taken numerous
tumbles. and was wet from the sole OF
feet to the nape OF my neck; my flask
was empty and my flsh-basket SO nearly
so that 1t was no fun at all to return tC
the hotel and suffer the slings and ar
rows OF my fellow boarders.
In the dusk Of the evening ! halted
by wayside tavern, with large drink
ing fountain In 'front.' AMI happening 10
look into it l saw several fne fat
specklcd trout-beauties they were--
half Founders and Founders, and just
enough to fill my creel to the bursting
point
How did they get there? Could 1t be
that they had come down through the
spout from the spring when they were
fry, or had Providence put them there
for my especial comfort? ! looked AZ
them carefully to see that they were
not branded with the name of any body,
and when found that they were not l
turned my back upon the trough and
fell into an distracted mood, wondering
how could catch them. Insensibly TO
myself, of course. my line with baited
hook attached fell into the fountain.
Suddenly felt terrific tugging and
wrenching as IL some one was trying to
take my pole away from me. ! seized
1t valiantly, and the next knew fine
fat trout lay gasping and somersaultinR
on the highway. looked around to see
that no one was looking and hastily
transferred tho beauty to my basket,
and in q moment or two was of in an
other fit OF abstraction with my back
TO the fountain.
That night l had the boarders green
with envy, and when | had paid for all
the wine that was necessary to restore
them to normal color my vacation
purse was pretty nearly depleted. Mar
ket fishing. even at a dollar pound, Is
not the most expensive kind in this hard
world.
Ibid hear that the landlord at GER
tain wayside inn indulgod in terrific
swearing bee next morning, and said
something about city thieves and black
guards. Why, | wonder?
But can bear witness to the fact that
trout may be taken baekward--not the
trout, but the iisherman-as well as
frontward, IL that is any satisfaction To

in better shape as far as shortage of
ears is concerned than they were TWO
weeks ago. The Baltimore and Ohio
is perhaps choked the worst, its i'm
mense tonnage on corn not yet having
slackened materially. The Grand
Trunk led last week in corn shipments
and is working its equipment to its ut
most. The Fort Wayne and Lake
Shore have nearly caught up with their
back businss. The western lines can
not keep up with the demands on their
equipment and several of the eastern
lines have sent large numbers of their
cars west, thus doing away with the
necessity of transferring at Chicago.
For this season also it is probable that
next week or the week after the east
bound shipments will be even larger
than they were last week"
