HERE'S A CORKRR.
How an Angler Baited Himself and Spat
on His Hook.

Il do not claim to be much OF iirsh-
erman," said Coryell, Of Pultency, TO a
Hammondsport correspondent of the
New York Sun. "Fishing isn't exactly
in my line, but 1 do go out to Lake
Keuka once in a while to try my luck,
and l had an experience with a black
bass once that some people might think
was unique. 1t surprised me, know.
I had rowed out in front OF Pultency
landing and dropped in my hook. L
hadn't any luck, and after fishing an
hour or more | made up my mind that
there was something lacking, so | rowed
M TO GibSon's to see il l could find out
why the fish didn't bite. Jim Benson,
who says he can tell the moment sal
mon trout touches his hook whether 1t
is a male or female, happened to be
there, and knowing that he knew all
about fish | asked him what he sup
posed was lacking that l couldn't
catch any fish.
"'What are you baitin' with" jim
asked me.
'WoIms, I replied. -.
- No, what are you baitin' yourself
with?'
81 saw what he was driving at and
told him that l hadn't baited myself
with anything.
That's what's lacking, them said
jim, and he told me TO go into Gibson S

A TAX FIGHT
In Ohio. Between Northern and Southern
Parts of the State.

Parts OF the state.
COLUMBUS, O., June This week
the State Board of Equalization will
take up the consideration OF Hamilton
county outside of Cincinnati.
The Assessors returns show remark
able discrepancy in valuations In differ
ent cities, particularly Cincinnati and
Cleveland. There can be little doubt
that the Cincinnati appraisement Is al
together too high, or that the Cleveland
appraisement is ridiculously too low.
Cleveland papers are prone TO orag
about the increase OF wealth OF their
city, but the returns OF the Assessors
actually show.a decrease. The duplicate
for 1890 is S72, 734, $40, but the new APP
praisement by the Assessors was only
ST.. 9S1, 239-an actual decrease in the
value OF realty and chattel property OF
S753. FOL. This showing was such
fraud on it's face that even the City
Board of Equalization Of Cleveland felt
impelled to raise the appraisement to
$40, sol, AIS.
Under the recent census Cleveland
has a population OF 1886, while Gin
cinnati has 200, 309-yet with only 34,-
763 more population, the Cincinnati APP
praisement for 1890 is more than double
that of Cleveland, it being SAG, 5S9,299
During the past decade Cincinnati In
creased her population 41,171, and her
Advertisement increased $40, 500, S93;
Cleveland increased her population 1Ol,-
400, but her appraisement increased
only Sl3, 7O7, 272, that is, the increase OF
population of Cleveland has been more
double that of Cincinnati, while the In
crease of appraisement OF Cleveland has
been only half that OF Cincinnati.
That there have been systematic and
wholesale omissions to list property Tor
taxation in Cleveland is apparent on It's
face. That city has probably almost as
many wealthy men as Cincinnati has; IL
certainly has greater number OF Valu-
able buildings; and then the enormously
valuable property of the Standard Oil
Company is centered il Cleveland. Mr..
Rockefeller, one Of the richest men In
the world, lives in Cleveland.
Columbus has only one-third OF the
population of Cleveland; put Columbus
has boon appraised at S43, 10, S10-more
than half of Cleveland's appraisement.
| Cleveland has four times and half the
population of Dayton, but its appralse-
ment is only two-anda-third more than
| that of Dayton.
There has evidently also been gross
differentiation at Toledo-a city fond
of blowing its horn as the culture great. !"
Dayton has population of 5s,s6S, while
Toledo'S population is 81, 434-yet Doth
cities have been appraised the same
sal 200, 600 odd.
In the preceding State Board of Equal
ization Northern Ohio combined against
Southern Ohio, and made the latter
bear the brunt of the burden of taxa
ton. Ten years ago the appraisemenU
in Cleveland was altogether too low in
comparison with that in Cincinnati; and
now Cleveland is trying to continue the
gross inequality.

ayern and take back with me one-half

tavern and take back with me 0ne-nall
pint or so of Gibson's bait. Idi1 so.
"'And don't forgit to spit on your
hook" shouted Jim as he rowed away.
Il anchored my boat again, baited
my hook, baited myself, spat on my
hook and threw in. The water was
clear and | could see down ten feet.
My bait hadn't been in the water long
before | saw tremendous big black
bass working up toward it. When he
got to it he smelt Of the bait, and |
could see his eyes snap. | supposed,
of course, that he would grab the
hook in less than no time. But he
didn't. He just licked that bait
clear around and then moved
away. He didn't make another motion
toward it, but looked around fondly at
it. By and by l pulled up. The bait
was all right, and so | bated myself
again with Gibson'S bait, spat on the
hook, and chucked in again. The bass
went through the same performance as
he had before, and | could see his eyes
swapping more and more. BY the time
| had repeated half a dozen times the
instructions Jim Benton had given me
that big bass was tearing around in the
water like mad. and when he came up
to bait he came up kind O. zigzaggy
and unsteady. Still didn't get on to
what allied the big fellow, and / was get
ting mad because couldn't catch him.
At last my bait from Gibson's was all
gone. After that the bass got madden
and madden. He came clear to the top
OF the water and stuck his head out and
shook it fiercely at me, and | tell you
he looked ugly. At last he steadied
himself for a moment and, and then shot
upward like a flash. He came out o.
the water and up in the air, and before
l could get over my establishment be
whirled around and gave me whack
alongside the head with his tail that
knocked me clear over on one side OF
the boat. For few seconds l was
stunned, and seeing the bass coming up
for me again, l cut my anchor rope and
pulled for home as fast as | could. The
bass followed me clear to the landing
and tried to get at me again, but he
didn't seem to be able to steady himself
enough to do it. All that allied him
was that he had got crazy, fighting
drunk, and when he found that | had
shut his liquor off he got back at me by
pitching in for regular rough-and-
tumble fight. 1t was a narrow escape
for me, l tell you, and ever since then l
have been mighty careful what baited
myself with when l fshed for bass and
spat on nv hook"
