Astonishing Long-Distancc Fishing In an
Artesian Well.


This very remarkable fish story was
published in the Goshen Independent Re-
publican In Goshen, Orange county.
y. Y.
Thomas Mould of the firm of Thomp-
son X Mould, the well known dealers in
grain and feed, and Editor Il. l.. Roys,
of the Goshen Democrat, are the heroes
of a fishing story beside which the stor-
les of ordinary fishermen sink into in
significance. Both are well known as
ardent deVotees Of l2aak Walton. and
whenever their business admits they are
usually found n pursuit of the gamey
black bass or the vcracious pickerel.
on Saturday they visited Glcnmere to-
gether. The fish were not biting with
much enthusiasm, and at o'clock they
started for home.
AT UIowell's condensery they stopped
to talk with some workmen who We're
repairing the pump at the artesian well.
1t will be rem membered by readers of this
paper that at the time this well was
sunk an account was given of the strik-
ing of a subterranean stream at depth
of nearly 800 feet, the volume of which
could not be ascertained except that
soundings showed ii to be of consider
able depth The stream and its proba-
BILE size We're the subjects of discussions
among the little group at the WELL and
somebody wondered if it contained any
fish.
A bright idea at once occurred to
Messrs. Mould and Roys. Each had in
mis- basket a long trolling line, and by
uniting them line long enough to reach
easily to the bottom of the well was
formed. Amid the good natured Jolly
ing" of the bystanders the lines were
rigsed and a hook attached. 1t was
baited with big 'night-walker" fish
worm and lowered 29S feet through the
6-inch hole. The distance had been care
fully measured off on the line to which
sinker had been attached, and the
hook fastened a short distance above
to Il stout piece of line.
Every body laughed except Mr.. Roys
as Mr.. Mould carefully lowered the line
and waited anxiouSly for the little tug
at the bait which brings joy to the
heart of the experienced fisherman. Al
ter a few minutes the expression on
"Tom's" face became one of rapt at
tention. BY darn, | believe I've got u
bite" he said, a moment later he be-
gan to pull in the line rapidly hand over
hand. 'IVe got something" said he, and
as everybody gathered about the we'll
he drew out a fish. 1t was about half
pound in weight and of the eyeless spe-
cies, which are sometimes found in the
waters of caverns The fish was nearly
a foot long shaped something like
perch and its struggles as it lay upon
the ground showed that it was game to
the backbone.
Unlike fish which dwell in waters on
the earths surface and which have dark
backs and light colored or white bellies,
this fish was of a uniform color of light
gray. II had very small scales, and
whore the eyes might he expected to
exist there We're slight indentations as
of rudimentary eyes.
When the excitement attending the
capture had died away the hook was
baited again and the line lowered Ed
itor Roys took charge this time and
after waiting for about ten minutes, he
drew To the surface another of the fish,

AS wreckers along the seashore

wreckors on the anxious watch for

abandoned or placed by accident be-
yond the control of the owners.
Among the great army Of these
wreckers in New York who gather
from the refuse of the city and from
the result of fire and other accident
a living or a partial support is vast
band of children, who are conspicu-
ous figures in pathetic pictures of
metropolitan life. These children
come from their habitations, called
homes, and wander about, seeking
what may DO of value to them in the
way of aiding the possibility of ex-
istence. Value is a relative matter,
and what is worthless to opo may
be a greatly desired prize to another.
