Thursday night, May 2nd, a lamp ex,

Der, George Bullet. For few minutes
things looked like lively fire. Horace
Andrews carried the burning lamp out
doors, and in doing SO burned his hands
quite badly. The first thing handy was
used, which proved to be some clothing
belonging to Mr. Bullet. Hence George
finds his damage to be mostly clothing
used to smother the flames.

A Clerical Fisherman.

know of no better fly fisherman than
a well known Episcopal Clergyman Of this
city. He is so expert in casting u fly that
the trout seem to crowd each other in their
anxiety to catch it. Not long ago the min.
lister was visiting his home, which is lOcat.
ed in a town on one of the finest trout
streams of the state. From the time he
was a boy he had always known that a
certain stage of water in the stream at the
town in the evening indicated that there
would be excellent fishing in the morning
at an old dam some seven or eight miles
above. He started early the next morning,
but he found that the indications had been
observed by other townspeoplc, for every
available bit of space on the dam was &C.
cupicd He watched the fishers cast and
rccast, but they never got u rise. Nor had
they had one the entire morning. He
looked about and observed place some
little distance above the dam, whore he
thought he might make strike. Wading
out into the stream he made a cast, and a
big spccklcd beauty caught the hook and
began to run. He caught fish after fish, to
the amaZemcnt of tho still unsuccessful
fishermen on the dam.
An old COuntryman stood on the bank
and watched his phenomenal success in
wondcrmcnt When he caught seven OF
eight and the men on the dam had caught
nothing, the old fellow could not restrain
himself any longer, but blurtcd out, "Well,
stranger, you beat the dcyil!'
"Thank YOU" retortcd the minister rs
he made another cast, chats nay profcs.
