A monster Trout.

Mr. John Williamson, who is in the
employ of F. M. Warren in the salmon
canning business at the Cascades,
brought from there on Saturday trout
measuring three feet in length and
weighing twelve pounds. It was caught
in one of the fish wheels there. Mr..
Williamson, who has been in the fish
business for over twenty years, having
been for number of years in the trout
Matching business in California, says he
has never seen or heard of trout of this
size and weight. 1t was very pretty
one, being covered with large red spots
on both sides.
This is doubtless what is known here
as the Dolly Warden trout. Once in a
while a lot of these trout come to this
market from some stream over near st.
Helen's, and few lots have come from
the upper country, Cmur d'Alene OF
Pen d'Oreille. AT least the marketmen
said the fish came from these places.
But fishermen sometimes do not tell
where they catch their trout. Many
Dolly Warden trout have been seen here
weighing from six to eight pounds, but
the one caught by Mr.. Williamson beats
all previous records. s.-Portland Oregon

How sullivan Was to Freeze the Cream
"Have you heard how Sullivan is go
ing to freeze the creamS" asked j.. I
& K. w. man.
Now everybody knows John Sullivan.
He's an engineer, and the most phenom-
enally lucky man that ever grasped a
throttle. Whenever there's an accident
OF train robbery John has some other
man on his run. He's not only lucky
but he is an expert engineer and an in
genious mechanic.
"Well, how is John going to freeze
the cream2" asked the reporter.
"The cream Pm alluding to-" replied
the railroader, sis that which the 5000
people on the big picnic to De Leon
springs are going to consume. Right
in front of the engine will be placed a
fat car, strapped to the floor of which
will be twelve immense freezers. These
freezers are to be connected by rods
with cogs working with similar wheels
on the freezers. These small wheels will
be turned by a larger one on the side of
the car. This larger wheel will be op-
Grated by rod connecting with one of
the big drivers of the engine. Under

sNow you know how John Sullivan
is going to freeze the cream. If the
train stops all of sudden you will
know that the cream is as hard as Wit

The Black Brunswickers.

The Black Brunswickers, so well
known for their uniform, will hence
forth appear in Prussian uniform only.
Until the last day of April they had
continued to wear the black braided tu-
nic-as simple and effective uniform
as soldier might wish to see. They
had been oficered for years by Prussian
officers in Prussian uniform, and this
gave them peculiar appearance on pa
rade. During the campaign Of 1901
they were often taken, both by Germans
and French, to be French. Sometimes
the mistake only caused good deal Of
merriment, as, for instance, when 9
French staff officer came up to within 8
couple of hundred yards where the regi-
mont was in hiding as reserve. Not q
shot was fired at him, because that
would have betrayed the regiment. BY
and by the Frenchman rode off, none
the worse and none the wiser. But to
be fired at by friends is unpleasant, and
that has happened to the Black Bruins
wickers; so that it is perhaps well for
them that they will not be mistaken in
the future.-Vanity Fair.

Death in an Iron Post.

Twelve-year-old Dan Clewell was a
victim of boys jumping game. The
Lad stood only six inches higher than the
iron post which he endeavored to jump
and which cost him his life. Wednes-
day, while romping the streets with a
lot of boys, he proposed the game. The
post isn't much thicker than gas pipe
and has a pointed top and an iron ring
to tie horses to. Dan took the lead and
in the first jump landed heavily with
his stomach on the sharply pointed post.
He cried out with pain and his compan-
ions were frightened. Several passing
pedestrians inquired the cause, but the
boys wouldn't tell. The lad kept his ac-
cident secret until forced by his agony
to tell his mother. It was too late for
the doctors to save him. He died from
peritonitis. is.-South Bethlehem Star.

bathing suits Are shorter.

Bathing suits viii be worn shorter
this year. This may appear startling to
the fair sex, but as it is intended solely
for the man of fashion, with whom be-
heve myself ON speaking terms" the
shock in the first sentence must be for
given, as it was altogether uninten-
tional.
But in saying that bathing suits will
be worn shorter, have reference only
to the lower half. Last year they COW
cred many an ungainly knee. This year
they can be worn cut to just above the
knee or just below, and the shape of a
mans limbs will have much to do with
his choice. As man is never an ex-
cellent judge Of his own physique, it
might be well to ask friend for advice.
Bathing suits win be worn as tight as
ever. This is another bit of agreeable
information for the host of well shaped
men who enjoy the two or three months
in the year during which they can dis
port themselves on the sands of Manhat-
tan Beach. Long Branch, Newport and
Atlantic City. But society permits this
show Of shape. in fact enjoys it, and SO
the man Of fashion has simply to bow
obeisance and pose.
When you buy your bathing outfit
this year be sure and do it. properly.
Buy them in one piece Of worsted or
silk and If you are stout get vertical
stripes, and if you are thin follow the
Sing Sing design. That is very much in
style this year Boston Herald.
