Hauling In Fishing Nets, Capt. Pc
terson Gets Rich salvage
From Lake Erie.

New York sun.
Capt. John Peterson OF Dunkirk
and the Lake Erie tugboat stauffer,"
said New York commercial traveller,
has a diamond ring which. aside from
its trade value, IS priced almost beyond
price by its possessor, owing TO the
singular manner IN which Il came into
his possession. Capt Peterson IL one
OF the Oldest lake shippers in the
service, and he keeps It now just be-
cause he likes 1t, for he doesn't have
TO, as he has laid by snug something
FOR all the rainy days that may come
as long as he lives
one night, a year or so ago, the
captains wife awoke somewhere along
about midnight and heard some one IN
that awoke her husband wide open.
and he saw "a man hurryins toward
the window OF the room. The captain
jumped out OF bed and got 10 the win
dow in time To grab and recover his
wife's $500 sealskin coat, which the
burglar had under his arm. But the
thief got away. Next morning the
captain discovered that HIS gold watch
aud chain We're gone The timepiece
was worth $3.50, and Capt Peterson
went out on the lake that morning
feeling blue enough.
THE business that called him out
on the lake that morning was to haul
in a number OF seins which had been
dragged by a heavy storm three miles
from where they had been set He
felt so bad over the loss OF his watch
that he tried TO get some other tugboat
master to take the Job of his hands.
but everybody was busy and the cap
tain had TO 20 himself. when the last
sein had been hauled IN ne saw some
thing sparkle IN the sun on one edge
OF the net. He looked to see what II
was, and was astonlshcd 20 find a ring
entangled IN the cords, II was black
with mud all but In one spot. and that
sparkled like an electric light
when the captain came ashore he
took his singular find 10 a ieweler and
asked him what it was worth When
the ieweler told that the sparkle came
from "a diamond and that the ring was
good for the best five hundred dollar
bill that was ever turned out. Cant.
Peterson forgot all about being blue
over the loss OF his watch The Jewell
er said that the ring had undoubtedly
been many Years at the bottom OF the
lake. II might have belonged to some
one who went down with one OF the
numerous wrecks that occur every year
on Lake Erie. Capt Peterson has had
several offers Of more than twice the
market value Of the ring for It, but he
refused them all"
