no witch can ever enter the house, ard
that if one Of them happens to go into a
neighbor's house broom placed across

has said that two straws laid crosswiso
ON the threshold will serve the purpose
quite effectually. A neighbours wife
heard one of them mumbling something
to herself and believed that she was say

body has also said that they can all bo

TROUT HOOKED IN QUEER PLACES.
Mr. KeIlogR's Lively Fight with Fish
Caught by the Dorssl Fin.


The story which E. Lincoln Kellogg
tells in Outing about five pound trout
hooked foul makes trout fishermen think
Of fish they have hooked in other places
than the mouth.
Mr.. Kellogg went a-fshing in early
spring in q stream near the foot Of the
Olympic mountain, not far from Puget
sound. The water was cold and icy, be-
ing melted snow mostly, and the fish
did not bito so freely as they would
have done had it been later, when the
sun had warmed things up. He had
fished all the morning, but without sue
cess, although his companion had caught
10 inch fish.
"We fished till noon," he says, "us-
ing big and little flies, bright and dark
ones, black, blue and brown, red, yell
low and green ones, but to no avail.
After luncheon we separated. Jack
went up stream and l down. Pretty
soon came to a favorable pool. The
river came dashing down over a long,
steep rifle into broad, boiling pool,
with big eddy up one side. l cast here
and there for a few moments Then
there was q heavy splash out in the
foam, and my reel began to buzz. l
scrambled to the shore and raced down
the stream, entirely unable to stop the
fish's mad rush. He came up the eddy,
then went down again three times be-
foro could stop him. Then got him
into my sight, and saw that I'd hooked
him foul, and saw also how it was that
his rushes had been so powerful The
hook had caught in his dorsal flu.
When Mr.. Kellogg managed to work
the fish into little cove from which he
was able to throw it out, not having
any landing net or gaff, he found that
it weighed five pounds.
Fishermen know how fish hooked in
the side will pull, more especially inca
current. They know further that no fish
makes so good fight as one hooked in
the tail flesh, where the hook will not
1eadily pull out. More than one trout
fisherman in the Adirondaclls has struck
fish and instantly thought it was q
monster-a four or even six FOUNDER,
judging from the way it pulled, but al
last, on getting tho net under the fish,
has found it to be little fellow Of g
pound CT less hooked in the tail.
The place where fishermen like tc
hook their trout is down in the corner
of the mouth where the two lips meet
This is a tough place, and hook fas
tened there is better than one fastened
anywhere else for hold fast qualities.
Big trout arc seldom or never taker
when hooked in the lip, though one
hooked in the tongue fights in an VI
hill struggle. But in either of thes'
places the trout does not mako the fgh
o tail hooked one does.

In Russia much rain is considered a
good omen. 1t is believed that the down

would otherwise be lowering in the air

Of old Chief Geronimo and his band Of

The Indians now in confinement
number $40, all members of the
Apache tribe, who were captured in
Arizona in the year 1878. While in
captivity there have been III births
and 205 deaths.
They are now established in the
military reservation at Fort Sill, Okla
homa, and are living in comfortable
dwellings built by their own labor
The climate in this region is arid ard
not well adapted to farming, but
three Indiaus last year raised upward
of 1900 bushels Of African corn, 1000
tons OF hay, 300 tons of corn fodder
$500 bushels Of potatoes and 10000
melons. They have herd Of cattle
including 2s6 calf Increase during the
year.
The special appropriations made by
congress for their benefit aggregate
the sum of $50, 900, of which nearly
$1,000 was expended for cattle-for
these Indians must become a pastoral
people-and $500 for building mate
terials, tools, seeds, etc. Their ra-
tions, clothing, medicines and Incl
dentals, supplied by the Quartermas-
ter, subsistence and medical depart
ments since their arrival at Fort Sill
have cost the additional sum of S44,-
