In PLACE of a Fish.

From the Forest and Stream.
Some time ago / read an account, some
where, of an angler who undertook to land
an expert swimmer in the pool of one of
the athletic clubs-in New York, 1 think
but who failed to land his man. though he
used heavy striped-bass rod, or a salmon
fy-rod, 1 forget which; at all events, the
swimmer seemed to have 1t all his own
way, and eve ltually smashed the tackle
after a long struggle. Having often per-
formed this feat successfully heretofore, /
again essayed IL last week at an entertain
ment of aquatic sports at the Natatorium
In this city, an account of which, from
The Tampa Daily Times" / inclose. On
this occasion used a 10-ounce rod similar
to my Little Giant rod, Julius yom Hofe
light striped-bass reel and Natchaug
braided silk line. The line was tied to a
muslin band around the neck of Capt. La
Penotiere. who, by-the-way. is an excellent
Natatorium. After giving him line to the full
extent of the pool, 1 had no difficulty in
bringing the captain within reach of the
landing net in ten minutes. though he ex-
erted himself In every manner to break
away by swimming, diving and initiating
the motions of hooked fish, to the great
delight of the large audience assembled
In a private trial the day before. l landed
him in seven minutes. 1 invited any expert
swimmer in the audience TO follow the cap
tain, but no one offered. The pool IS 4OXS0
feet, and from to II feet deep. In open
water / should use Hensha!l S-ounce rod,
Kentucky reel and No. silk nne-in other
words, ordinary tlack-bass tackle.

Organ Grinders Paradise.

From the New York Recorder.
A whole village of wel-to-do Italians,
speaking English with an accent. is one of
the most astonishing things that Italy Of
fers to the tourist. They are retired organ
grinders, who have acquired comfortable
fortunes in this country and have gone
back to their beloved native land to live in
affiuence with their families in this strange
little colony, which they have founded
among the sweet Italian mountains.
The stranger, in walking through the
quiet streets, is often astonished at the
sound of a hand organ sending forth the
familiar strains of once popular air from
within some one of the houses, giving evil
dence OF the affection In which the organs
are held by their svarthy, dark-eyed own
ers, and which most of them cherish
fondly IN their ideal life Of idleness.

THE LATEST MOTHER-IN-LAVv.
She Caused a French Schoolmaster to
Flee to the Forest.

From the New York World.
A schoolmaster at Amiens, France, mar
ried, but after a week of welded life his
mother-in-law. who made her home with
them, became so irsvpportable that, I'M
able longer to endure her tyranny, he re-
solved rot only to desert the conjugal roof,
but to break with civilization and return
to savagery. So he fed to a dense forest
not far from Amiens, and there lived for
three weeks on roots and apples.
He said afterward that whenever the pic
ture of his homs and wife rose in his
troubled brain there stepped between the
specter Of his implacable mother-in-law,
guarding like the angel with the flaming
sword the gate of paradise, and the thought
would send him flying into the depths OF
the forest again to escape fancied pursuit
and recapture.
At last hunger drove the vegetarian to
desire another roof than the trees afforded,
and more tempting food than herbs and
apples so he decided to seek refuge with
his own mother, and at her home found
awaiting him papers in suit for divorce
brought by his wife on the ground of de-
sertion. Now the courts have freed the
unhappy schoolmaster, who deemed con-
jLgal happiness too dearly purchased at
the price Of such q mother-in-law.

noes, but at the ninth one be sure to touch
the double six. and from there pass to six
five, and so on. touching each one in turn
till twenty-one Is announced. The last one
touched will be the one originally selected.
Exactly the same result can be obtained
by eusing the figures on the face OF
watch, and to the performer with but a
small number of tricks at command, q
bright change of patter will make 1t pass
for an entirely separate thing.
The @ Trick.
trick which can be used IN connection
with good effect Is called the 20" trick. 1t
can be introduced by saying: Il will show
you the trick in little different form. so
that you may see just how 1t is done"
CThis, like most of the remarks Of the con-
jurer, Is misleading, as the trick Is entirely
different, and instead of enlightening the
audience, only confuses them so that they
are further from a solution than before.)
Il take this handful Of COINS" buttons
counters, beans, or pieces of paper will do
as weld and place them thus (see figure -,
forming a sort Of capital a Now 1 will
turn my back to you. or leave this room
and allow you to count as many as you
please, beginning at the tip of the tail and
counting up the left side. touching each
coin and stopping at any number you
please. Then start from this same coin
and come back again, but instead OF re-
turning down the tail. continue around the
circle Now, be sure and remember at
what coir you left off counting, and on my
return I will indicate the last coin
touched"
The secret lies in the number Of coins
In the tail, the counting always terminal
ing just as far up the right-hand side Of
the circle as there are coins in the tail
For example, suppose the number ten Is
chosen. The chooser begins to count at
the point Of the TAIL and IL there are five
coins In the TAIL he will stop at the coin
Indicated by the cut by one. Counting
backward around the circle. ten counts will
bring him to two, and no matter what
number hs chooses. he must always stop
at the same point when there are five coins
In the tail. In repeating the trick. rear
range the Co." putting more coins in the
circle, thus shortening the tail Then the
stop will not be made at the same coin
and the secret of the trick will not be en-
dangered.

athletic-looking young person to her com.
panions as they rode up In the car, lis re-
ceiving the wedding cards of a man who
used to swear that he'd rather be a bache-
Tor forever than marry another woman.
I'm sure it's the hardest thing in life"
"Ah, no, IT isn'tv' said the little one
softly. "The hardest thing is to be engaged
to a man whom another girl has rejected
and to meet that girls quizzical gaze"
You are both wrong" said the third
girl. THE HARDEST thing on earth Is not TO
be engaged to some other woman's cast-on
adorer or to know that your own cast-off
one has found consolation. It's to know
that there isn't on the face of the earth q

lover"
