A huge salmon shippedto Senator Mitch
ell from Oregon some days ago by Col.
James B, Montgomery, ofPortland, formed
the piece de resistance at a lunch in the
senate restaurant. Among Senator Mitch
ell's guests were the vice president, Speaker
Reed nearly the entire senate officials and
a number of correspondents The salmon
had preserved its delicious flavor despite
its long journey overland.
OF course it was a great occasion for fish
stories. Many wild and weird tales of bat.
ties with giant salmon were related, to the
great enjoyment Of those whose credulity
was equal to the task of believing every.
thing that was said When, however, Rep
resentatiye Hermann, of Oregon, asserted
that when he went to the state, thirty
years ago, he found the salmon so thick in
the smaller streams that his horse had to
carefully pick his way from shore to shore
lest he step upon them, his listeners thought
that nothing was left to be said. Mr.. Her
mann acknowledged that his statement
was hard to believe, but added that he had
the evidence of his own eyes tor the fact.

The weekly pay for reporting for city
newspapers runs all the way from $40 to
$780, And there is always asplendid chance
for good reporters. TO be good reporter
these qualifications are necessary: Health,
the news instinct, a sense of humor, the
ability to write a simple style in legible
hand eternal vigilance, temperance, ami
ability, patience, determination and ambi-
ton. Then, furthermore, it behooyes the
reporter to be a constant student and read
er, informing himself fully upon every
variety of subject that interests mankind.
For the profession of newspaper reporting
we have the highest regard, and we find
pleasure in this opportunity of saying that
from the companionship of newspaper re-
porters we have derived incalculable profit,
for Of all classes and conditions of men lex
Capting perhaps the printer the newspaper
reporter seems to abound most literally in
wit, humOr, invention, generosity, good
nature patience, pluck, fortitude anG those
other qualities and accomplishments which
do so much toward Frightening and better
ing human life,-Chicago News.

THE ENGLISH CLUB,
It Is Radically Different from the Social
Organizations of America.

II Is Radically Different from the Social
ORGANIZATIONS of America.
The English club is place to live in. In
one of these clubs member lives for five
hundred pounds a year about as well as he
could live for fye thousand a year in his
own house. lie of course wishes to make
the club his own house as far rs may be.
This fact explains the solitariness of these
institutions. The member wishes to find
in them the independence, the privacy,
and In q sense the solitude of his own
house. The great clubs are therefore de
siguedly unsoCial.
Many of the features of the club accord
with this intention, This is perhaps tho
reason of the plain decoration and the alb
senee of pictures from the walls. 1t is
Thought that club should be prevented
from looking like drawing room; the no.
ton is that rather than look like a drawing
room it should look like an hotel-the sug-
gestiou being, perhaps, that the members
are strangers TO one another, rs people who
meet in an hotel are. But OF course it
should look like neither,
There is no treating the feeling Of the
member, perhaps, being that his liberty
would be interfered with by being expected
to drink, or even Icy being asked TO drink.

usual in American clubs are unknown
