On Thursday morning Mr.. John c.
Condor, of Belfast, caught the king Of
Holsters in the waters of Penobscot bay.
The lobster was caught southeast of
Moose point, in line with Brigadier's
island. The monster was too large to
enter the trap, but as the trap was
drawn up he became entangled in the
heading and was safely landed in the
boat The lobster was perfect in all his
parts. He measured 81 inches from the
end OF the tail to the end of the longest
claw, 20 inches around the body and II
inches around the large claw When
taken from the water he weighed twen-
ty-three pounds, but after boiling shrapk
to seventeen.
Mr.. Charles E. Sanford, of New York,
offered Captain Bramhall five dollars for
the lobster, but he would not take it.
Saturday Captain Bramhall boiled the
lobster in strong pickle to preserve it.
The captain expects to realize hand
some sum from the crustacean. Will
lamson's History of Belfast" mentions
the capture of a lobster at City Point
many years ago that weighed twenty
two pounds. Belfast Journal.

The Too Teachable Parrot.

heard the other day an absurd
story concerning a parrot which,
think, mer its recording. The Baron
de Rothschild, of Paris, so runs the
tale. was desirous of sending to his
kinsman at Frankford, whose birthday
,, was at hand, some acceptable token of
remembrance. | should fancy that a
member of that family would be an
exceedingly difficult person for whom
to choose a gift, and so the baron found.
After much cogitatioE and many in
vestigations he decided upon Il wonder
fully trained and talkative parrot.
whose facility in learning any phrase
that he had been told few times was
particularly noted.
One of the clerks of the Paris house
was deputed to convey the precious
fowl to Frankfort. Now the weather
was cold the young man dislked ira
Yelling and, above all, the parrot, with
the usual perversity of his race, scree-
med and sceerched all night, so that
none OF the occupants of the sleeping
car in which he and his guardian were
installed could get any rest. "Shutup.
you contounded jew" exclaimed his
protector, in passion more than once,
moved to anti Semitic feelings by the
dIsagreeable journey and the parrots
bad behavior.
At last the birds and its disgusted
protector arrived safe Ill Frankfort. and
the parrot was formally presented to
its new owner, who at once began try
Ing to coax it to talk. Polly listened
to NJ. de Ro'hschild's discourse for
minutes and then in reply enunciated
with startling distinctness the latest
phrase he had learned, "Shut up. you
