suit is triile newer, but hardly less
fresh looking. In door and out he is
always seen with top hat upon his

A Monster SaWIsh

One of the most wonderful catches
ever made with the rod ana reel was
accomplished by Mr.. n. NJ. George, of
Danbury, Conn, on Fridcy last. He
was fishing for tarpon at the Head n
few miles down the river, with A. +.
Gonzales as guide, when he got
strike. 1t did not take long to ascer-
tain that the game was even bigger
than tho silver king, and Mr.. George
settled down to give the fellow battle.
The fish soon came to the surface. He
was monster sawlish and he slashei
his saw about in the water at u great
rate. Mr.. George handled the fish
most skilfully and proved that he is a
thorough expert in the use of rod and
reel. The battle lasted one hour and
twenty minutes, when the sawhsh was
brought TO the gnG and killed. He
measured fourteen feet eight inches n
length, and weighed G2j pounds. His
saw was forty inches in length and five
in width, and his Gippers measured
fitty-six inches This gives Mr.. George
the record ON the CalOosahatchee for
the largest sawdsh ever caught withrol
and reel Mr.. George says he doesn't
care 20 tackle another, and this is the
conclusion of oil tho noted experts
who have ever played q snwfsh This
may read like great fish story to
people who know little OF the great
fishing ON the Cnloosnhat,hco River,
but tho facts as given are absolutely
correct. Tho gentlemen who came
here from al parts of tho world 90
catch tprpou are genuine sportsmeu,
and would sooru to have an incorrect
record made of any OF their catches,
which IRE all made with rods and reels.
