Andy Hauser's Wrestling Match
With a Big Carp.

Though the fishing season is we'll
nigh its close, Andy Hauser comes to
the front with a fish story that might
be termed a corker.
Andy and a friend were duck shoot
ing yesterday down on the Miller Lake,
near Freeport, and when the ducks
were not moving lively enough to keep
them engaged with their guns they put
in their time watching a big carp that
was fioundering about in the shallow
water near them.
Finally the big fish got out on a
mud fiat, where the water was but a
few inches deep, and appeared to be
stranded. Then it occurred to Hauser
that the fish might be captured. He
peeled his shooting coat, laid down
his gun, and went for that carp.
The water was too shallow for the
fish to get away, and soon Andy was
down in the mud engaged in a catch
as-ca atch-can wrestling match with the
big fish. OF course the fish was slip
pery-all fishes are-and Hauser was
badly handicapped. But he stuck to
his task manfully, and after long and
severe struggle he outwinded the carp.
and dragged 1T in triumph to the shore.
The fish measured ~ inches in length
and weighed 30 pounds. 1t was about
a foot in width. Hauser brought it
homo, and in order to prove that he had
not indulged in exaggeration he will
place it on exhibition to-day in an
uptown market
