Was He Mafa's Victim?

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 25.-While some ne- groes, who make a living catching drift wood in the river, were plying their avoca- tion at Kennersville a suburb just above the city, they discovered sack floating in the river. Upon opening the sack they were mortified to discover the ghastly face of dead man. The neck was discolored and showed signs of either rope or fingers having been pressed against the windpipe. Several pieces of iron were found in the dead mans pockets, placed there by the murderers with the evident intention of preventing the body from rising. The dead man was "dago," and as the Mafia are supposed to have meeting place some where near Kennersville, it is thought the man may possibly have been witness whom the assassins of Superintendent Hennessy desired out of the way,

They had just begun to eat when gambler named George Hathaway came stalking through the room and stopped imme- diately in front of the table at which Whelan and Hogan were seated.
 Hathaway, who was intoxicated, made some remarks, apparently offensive, when Whelan sprang to his feet and advanced. Hathaway at once pulled heavy 4-caliber revolver and fired, the ball going through Whelan's left groin and out at his back, imbedding itself in the wall. Whelan was taken to the Michael Reese hospital, where he died at 3:15 Sunday afternoon. At a late hour Hathaway was arrested by Officers Trehern and Mcdonald and lodged in the central station.

The black drum is one Of our largest
game fishes, most abundant in the south
ern states, but occurring along the Jer-
sey coast, and often found in the waters
of Staten Island.
The drum belongs to the family of the
SciPnide. which, owing to the peculiar
structure Of the air bladder. possess the
power Of uttering sounds to a greater or
less degree. Other members of the fami-
ly, such as the weakfish, croaker and
roncador, make a grunting sound when
boated although old fishermen claim to
be able to detect the presence Of q large
school Of weakfish by the noise made by
them while feeding as the boat passes
over them); but the sound of the drum
is the loudest. and can be very distinctly
heard at a distance. The croak of the
ubiquitous sea robin, which does not,
however. belong to this family. is ia
miliar to all who have ever wet a line in
the bay.
During the breeding season of the
drum this noise is more pronounced than
at any other time, the males calling to
the females, who respond in lower tones;
and at night, while feeding on the oyster
and mussel beds, which provide their
principal food. the fish seem to grunt
their satisfaction with the repast.-Cor.
