SHOOTING FLYING FISH.
4 Novel Sport Carried on In Southern
California Waters.

Novel Sport Carried on In Southern
California Waters.
The visitor to the island of Santa
Catalina or he who goes out on the
launches from Long Beach or San
Pedro is always entertained by the
remarkable fights of flying fish,
which in these waters attain a
length of IS inches and q weight of
Q pounds. Alarmed by the boat
or steamer, they dash out of the
water by vigorous movement of
the screw1ike tail and dash away in
headlong fight, skimming over the
waves like birds, presenting so re-
markable an appearance that the
tourist who has never seen so ex-
traordiLary performance takes
them for pirds. The flying Ash is not
flying, but it hae four very winglike
fms which serve it similar purpose
that is, it hurls itself out of the
water by the aid of its tail, and
then, using the four winglike fins as
parachutes, goes soaring away, COW
ering a distance Of an eighth Of a
mile When the inertia fails, the
tail of the fish drops, and the mo-
ment it strikes the water it begins
violent twisting, which sends the
fish into the air again, and by re-
peating this the fish is enabled to
cover the long distance. The winge
or fms are not tapped, the only mo-
ton being a tremulous oneimparted
to them when the tail is twisted in
the water. AS the boat ghdes along
these fish dart from the water and
20 soaring away ON either side, and
il is then that the sportsman, sitting
in the bow, has an opportunity for
some novel sport.
The fish move like some quail,
very low, not more than two feet
from the surface, and are not the
easy shots one might imagine. They
move rapidly and appear to rise and
fall over the waves and go sweeping
away in graceful curves. Sometimes
four or Ave are in the air at the
same time, and the good shot can
bring them down to the right and
left. All that is needed to carry out
the idea of quail shooting would be
to have dog, but there is sea dog
that Pushes this attractive game,
the agile tuna. The flying fish is
it's legitimate prey, and big schools
come sweeping in from the deep sea,
driving the schools of flying fish be-
fore them, chasing them into the
air six, eight and ten feet, giving
marvellous exhibitions of lofty tum-
bling. At such times the flying
fishes are crazed with terror and
leave the water by scores and hun
dreds. They fly into boats, out upon
the dry beaches, strike boatmen
who happen to be in the way of
their headlong fight and present
most attractive appearance to those
who have never seen flock of ocean
fiers in the air with fish or z feet
long pursuing in series of leaps or
jumps. Sometimes the tuna chases
the f1ier along just below the sur
face, catching it as it drops, cloud
of foam alone telling the story

lands in Wisconsin

Are now as desirable as any in the mar
ket. The lands, particularly in the north
;ern part of Wisconsin, are being rapidly
taken up by actual settlers.
The most salable are the timber and
meadow lands now ranging in price from
$500 to $1,000 per acre. A few months
hence their value will be greatly increas-
ed.
For home or for investment no luckier
chance in the West has ever before been
offered. Now is the time to invest. No
better farming land exists anywhere. No
greater results can be obtained anywhere.
Schools and churches abound every
where. Nearby markets for all farm pro-
ducts. Wisconsin is one Of the banner
States of the West.

DOES AWAY WITH WAR.

The Arbitration Treaty Between I'm
Gle Sam ard Queen Vic.
The second week Of the new year has
gone down as one of the most eventful
in the history of the United States, sig
nalizing the greatest stride of the century
in the, direction of the progress of civil
ization. By the treaty of arbitration to
which Secretary of State Richard Olney
and Sir Julian Pauncefote, ambassador
of Great Britain and Ireland to the Unit
ed States, placed their signatures, war
fare between this country and the king
dom over which Queen Victoria holds
sway is made virtually impossible. An
event of so happy nature should be
made the occasion of public rejoicing
throughout the land and in Great Britain.
While this treaty has nothing to do
with the settlement of the boundary dis
pute between Great Britain and Venezue-
la, it is really result of the conferences
which were held by the members Of the
commission which was appointed by Pres
ident Cleveland in that connection, with
prominent members Of the British Gov
eminent. 1t is in measure experimental.
It is the first treaty of the kind which
has ever been made between this country
and any other and in fact is the first of
the kind in the history of the world The
manner in which it will work will be
watched with the greatest interest by the
civilized world. Its Importance in the
line of progress cannot be oyerestimated.
The treaty, which is for a term of five
years, provides for the arbitration of all
questions in difference between the two
contracting parties which have failed of
solution by diplomatic negotiation. All
claims of pecuniary nature amounting
to less than 100000 @($5OO,OO0) and
which do not involve the determination of
territorial claims are to be submitted to
an arbitration commission of three mem
bers, one of them appointed by each of the
parties to the treaty and the third to be
elected by the two thus appointed, or, if
they cannot agree, in manner provided.
The award of majority of such commits
sion shall be final.
All pecuniary claims which shall ex-
coed 100000 (S5OO,o0O and all other
matters in difference in respect to which
either of the high contracting parties shall

have rights against the other, provided
that such matters do not involve terrific
rial claims, shall be dealt with and de-
cided by commission of fye members,
two of whom shall be appointed by each of
the high contracting parties and the fifth
IN the same manner as in the commission
first mentioned.
A controversy which shall involve the
determination of the territorial claims
shall be submitted to tribunal consist
ing of six members, three of whom shall
be Judges of the Supreme Court of the
United States or judges of the Circuit
Courts. to be named by the President of
the United States, and three of them
indges of the British Supreme Court of
Adiudicature, or members of the Judicial
Committee of the Privy Council, to be
nominated by the Queen. It is provided
in this connection that in case the ques-
tion involves the territorial rights or
boundary of one of the States of the
Tinted States or one of the provinces OF
Great Britain, judicial official of said
state or province may be substituted for
onesof the judges. The award of such
a commission by vote of not less than
6ya 10 one shall be final In case OF an

the property and blow up the dam of the
gun club were not infrequent. On one
point the farmers were agreed, and that
was that if there was to be any more
shooting about the gun clubs grounds
they would not be the only ones who were
carried from the battlefield to the hos
pitfalls.
Poaching on the club grounds had given
its caretakers much trouble of late, and
seven gamekeepers, well armed with shot
guns and pistols, were on duty when the
fourteen young men, members of the fam
lilies of neighboring farmers, invaded a
duck swamp and prepared for days
sport. The watchmen bore down on the
boys in a body, and hailing them from q
considerable distance, ordered them off
the clubs grounds. When the poachers
did not comply the gamekeepers opened
fire at three rods range and five young
men fell to the marsh ice, riddled with
shot, two MORALLY wounded. The sheriff
arrested Barney Whitlock, the Blackburn
brothers and Alfred Taylor and lodged
them in Jail.

award made by less than the prescribed
majority, the award shall also be final
unless either power, within three months
after the award has been reported, pro-
test that the same is erroneous, in which
case the award shall be of no validity. In
such case, or when the members shall
be equally divided, there shall be no re-
course to hostile measures Of any descrip-
ton until the mediation of one or more
friendly powers has been invited by one or
both of the high contracting parties.
Territorial claims include all other
claims involving questions Of servitude,
rights of navigation and access, fisheries,
and all rights and interests necessary to
the control and enjoyment of the terri
tory claimed by either of the parties of the
treaty.
If in any case the nominated bodies
designated to decide upon questions which
do not involve territorial disputes shall
fail to agree upon any umpire as provided
in the treaty the umpire shall be appoint
ed by the King of Norway and Sweden.
Either of the high contracting parties,
however, may give notice to the other
that, by reason of material changes in
constitutions as existing at the date of
the treaty it is of the opinion that SUBJ
stitute for his majesty shall be chosen.
The high contracting parties shall at
once proceed to nominate substitute for
the King of Sweden and Norway; and the
same shall hold good in the event that he
at any time desires that substitute shall
be appointed. In the case of the death,
absence or incapacity to serve of any ar
bitrator or umpire another arbitrator or
umpire shall Immediately be appointed in
his place in the manner provided for the
original amendment

A lawyer certainly understands the
value Of testimony in establishing a
fact. The letters written by those who
have been cured by Hoods Sarsaparilla
have over and over again proved the
case" for this great medicine. This
testimony has shown so many times
that Hoods Sarsaparilla cures when all
other medicines fail, that Hoods Sar-
saparilla Is entitled to the verdict, 'sThe
One True Blood Purifier" p. M. Bu-
chanan, Esq, Rochester, Ind, has been
in the practice of law since 1883, and is
well known at the Fulton County bar.
He says:
eve have taken several bottles Of
Hoods Sarsaparilla in our family dur
ing the past year and have been very
much pleased with it's results. have
taken it as blood purifier and my wife
has used it for the same purpose. When
ever we feel badly we resort to Hoods
Sarsaparilla and it always seems to ac-
complish the result for which it Is in
tended. My wife was feeling very bad
~ and
Had That Tired Feeling,
and she took Hoods Sarsaparilla with
benefit. When we take Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla the impurities Of the blood are
often forced through the skin by erup-
tons, but by continuing the use Of
Hoods Sarsaparilla the blood becomes
purified and the skin returns to its nor
nal condition. Hoods Sarsaparilla al
ways seems to cleanse the blood and
we hold it in very high esteem as
blood purifier" P M. Buchanan, Esq,
