HOOKING FROST FISH.
No Bait Is Required and the Srort Is
Full of Fun.

No Bait Is Required and the Sro1t Is
Full of Fun.
Now as November's chill days draw
to a close the water-side population
halls with glee the return of the sea-
son for frost fishing, says the New York
World The man who has never leaned
from pier and jety and with cold, ting
ling fingers sought to capture the evas-
i've frostie has another treat in store.
There is much to recommend the sport.
1t may be had right at our very doors.
all along the East and North river
shores and up the sound. The outfit
required is extremely simple and cheap.
No bait is needed, and, last but not
least, the game once caught is about
the finest pan fish of all the saltwater
fish. At this season these slender, sill
very fish cruise in great shoals along
shore, nosing into all the crevices In
tie docks and browsing along the Shiny
piles and woodwork. Usually they swim
very near the surface and seldom
deeper than two feet They refuse all
bats, but can be easily caught with
hook lashed on a pole. The tackle is
thus made:~To a light, round stick,
about an inch thick and three or four
feet long, is dashed a stiff two-and-a
half-foot wire Gan umbrella rib is just
the thing: to the wire is fastened
large but very slender and keen fish
hook With this effective weapon you
can sling out frost fish by the score. The
method of using it is this: You lean
over the edge of the dock and peer
down along the edge of the woodwork.
Soon you see a frost fish or a dozen of
them nosing along. Slipping the hook
into the water, with the point outward
otherwise you will be likely to hook
the wood and break the tackle), you
work it cautiously under the frostie.
Then with a quick jerk upward you i'm
pale him and land him on the pier.
After few efforts you will seldom miss
a single fish. 1t is prime fun, but you
must be warmly clad to enjoy it.
Remember, too, that lying on the edge
Of a wall or dock is a fine position to
empty your pockets, so do not carry
change OF valuables loose. More than
enc frost fisherman has paid dear for
his sport by losing watch or lot of
change. Wear no clothes that can be
injured by rubbing on the dirty beams
and rocks. Select some mild December
day, and, having made ready your
frostie hook some time previously, sally
over to the river. The upper North
river shore is best, because cleaner and
not so much haunted by toughs. In an
hour or SO you can snatch a basketful
of shiny victims. Fried for supper these
will clinch your resolve to try it again.
The frost fish is little, but-oh, my!'

The Good Luck of Two Colored
s Men-$5O,OOO Sale.

CRIPPLE CREEK, Feb. 6-Mr. Will
liam Weston, the we'll known mining en-
gineer, today cabled to London his de-
clination of an offer of $4,000 yearly
salary and a share in the profits of a
mining company to go to Coolgardie,
Western Australia, aud take the manage
ment of an extensive mining property
in that far away gold field. Mr.. Weston
has been considering the proposition for
some time, but today decided to stay by
Colorado and Cripple Creek, where he
has cast his fortunes, and hence the
cable of declination.
AS a matter of interest to Colorado
mines it may be said that the Coolgardie
property, of which Mr.. Watson was
offered the management, consists of
mining estate of 100000 acres. Mr..
Weston considers that apart from per-
sonal considerations it is gratifying to
see that American mining engineers are
in such demand in South Africa and
Australia tacit admission that Ameri
cans are the best miners in the world.

Draws Up Bill 10 Suppress Yvefte
From Singing.

NEW YORK, Feb. 6.-When Yvette
Guilbert was drawing such big audi
ence at the Olympia In this city Antho-
ny Comstock was listening to her songs
and studying her gestures for the pur-
pose of making trouble for her. He
went home and drew up a bill which he
determined to have made into law. If
he is successful Yvette will not sing in
New York again. Not only that, but a
dozen other popular forms of amuseme mt
will be brought to an end.
After making the rough draft of the
bill Mr.. Comstock proceeded to amplify
it aud put it in legal form. Then he went
to one of the Legislators whose views are
in sympathy with his and had him father
the bill As a consequence it was soon
quietly introduced at Albany in the guise
of senate bill No. 269. A part of the
bill. which is drawn in strong language,
will effectuaIIy put an end to the cigar
cite photograph and all its counterparts
1t will also reach the bill boards and
posters, as well as the window litho-
graphs of many of the travelling shows.

The Ruled Grouse.

Some of the hunters in Maine relate
peculiar traits of the ruffed grouse of
that state. One hunter in particular
took a shotgun along to have some sport
with the birds. but says it proved a
nuisance" as the grouse were so tame
that they refused to fly, and would
WALL around and stare at him within
fifteen PAGES, and, responding to a
shrill whistle, would assume motion
less position and allow their heads to
be shot off with a rifle, and were called
idiots" for their accommodation.

a re1ephone Newspaper.

Il Pesth, Hungary, we are told they
have a telephone newspaper-news
wire, it should be called. The news and
other matter is edited as in any other
newspaper Office. Then, instead of
being printed, it is given to good elo-
cutionists, who talk it into a telephone
at intervals during the day and even
ing. The receivers are connected to the
main line by long, flexible wires, so that
the hearer can listen in bed or wherever
suits his or her will or fancy. Twenty
eight editions are uttered per day. In
the intervals the recipients are enter
tanned by vocal and instrumental con-
certs. which are specially given in the
Office, and the wires are also connected
with the opera house and music halls,
and on Sundays and saints days with
the churches. The happy Hungarian,
it is said, can lie abed all day and yet
hear every thing that is going on.-Iron

LAwRENCEvILLE, Ca, Feb. 6.-Under
the operations of the domestic wine bill

WIPED OUT THE FAMILY.
A Chicago Carpenter Kills His Family


CHICAGO, Feb. Orchard Klattke,
a Lakeview carpenter, murdered his
father, mother, wife and three chill
drep last night and then completed his
work by killing himself. The dead
are:
Richard Klattke, 38 years old.
Kate .Klattke, his wife.
John Klattke, his father, aged 70.
Nina klattlze, his mother, aged II.
Nina Klattke, daughter, aged 8.
Anna Klattke. daughter, aged 8.
Emma Klattke, daughter, aged 2.
The members of the Klattke family
were found dead early this morning IN
their little cottage at 2O7 Berteau
avenue by Matthew Brown, a saloon
keeper. Mr.. Brown, wishing some
work done, called at the Klattke
home He raped on the door, but
there was no response. knowing that
the klattkeS were early risers he be-
came suspicious, and calling neigh ors
he broke in the door.
In the house he found the seven
corpses. Each had a bullet wound IN
the head and death had evidently
been instantaneous. Beside the body
of Richard K1attke lay n revolver and
empty cartridge shells were scattered
aboutthe rooms. One peculiar fea-
lure was the lack OF any lndlcatlOn OF
a struggle on the part of any of the
victims except Mrs. Klattke. The
odor of chloroform pervaded the
house. From this it is surmised that
Klattke first chloroformed the entire
family and had then at his leisure
tahen-deliberate aim and put bullet
into the brain of each.
Klattl1e was Respondent His family
was cold and hungry. Since Christ
