Catching the Tarpon.

The tarpon is top feeder'-that is,
he seeks his food near the surface. Those
who know him best fish for him with live
mullet, which is not allowed to sink more
than two feet below the waves, being sus-
tanned by large float" or cork The in
ner portion OF his mouth is bone and no
hook will take secure hold upon ii. This
being so, 1t is necessary 10 allow him par
italy to swallow the bait, which he will do
by the time he has carried the float whirl-
ing through the water for space of 80
feet. Afterward is the time TO swear and
pray. The tarpon reel holds 900 feet of
line. Not infrequently when he feels the
hook the fish will strike the trail for blue
water with seemingly irresistible rush,
and keep going. What happens when his
$50 pounds of express speed are pitted
against the strength of line that is run
out needs not TO be told. He simply sails
on out to sea, whipping behind him 200
yards of silk, and whether he lives or
whether he dies its former owner knows
not. He can only go back to port and
surround many juleps and tell vain tales of
the size of the wonder that got away.
But If that splendid rush is DETECTED If
the fish dives, if the thumb of an old hand
be upon the reel, it the man 10 whom the
uauu Is attached is OF cool neau ana knOWs
enough 10 give his adversary the butt, a
battle royal is on. For verify the combat
between a 150pound man, sound of wind
and science, and l50-pound tarpon, pos
sessed of the temper of the devil is a
| grapple of the gods. The crazed fish time
and again leaps three, four, five feet from
the water and shakes his head like a dog
in his effort to dislodge the hook. A mo-
mentary slack of the line is fatal, as with
| the rapidity of lightning the sharp teeth
close upon the strands above the smell and
they are severed as if with knife.
! But when the terrific struggles have
grown fainter when the steady, deadly
strain OF the springing rod has Slapped the
strength of his gallant fOemAn, when his
! 1.-the, powerful body is brought near TO the
boats edge, when the cruel gaff has smit-
ten the life from it and its beautiful length
lies along the deck, the conqueror feels
half jubilaDt, half remorseful, wholly re-
| spectful of the giant whom his proves
has laid low, and confoundedly weary and
dry. He locks at the sun, which seems
surprisingly low in the heavens he looks
at his watch and refuses TO believe that two
hours have passed in that desperate wTes-
tie. But, unless he be in thorough train
ing and past master of his art, a swollen,
aching wrist will tell him for days after
ward that in the silver king of the South
ern seas he was near TO meeting his match

Fire on Atkinson Street saturda,
Morning.

An alarm of fire about 4 o'clock Satur-
day morning brought the fire department
to the place near the north end of Atkin-
son street owned by George c. Sabin, for
merry owned by Henry Wells. The fire
had started in the large barn attached to
the dwelling and was well under way when
it was discovered. The origin is wholly a
mystery, as no one is known to have gone
into the barn after 10 o'clock, and had it
started at that time il could not well have
smouldered SO long before breaking out,
There is no theory as to the cause. The
barn was destroyed as well as a shed at
tached, and the L of the dwelling. Little
damage was done to the main part of the
house except from smoke and water. The
house near by, owned by Victor Brinn,
was scorched little, but did not take fire.
In the barn were II horses owned by
Mr.. Sabin, two of which were burned in
the building and nine rescued without in
jury. Two hogs were in low place under
the floor and were not harmed, although
the building burned to the floor over them,
and fell upon it. All of Mr.. Sabin's haT-
ness and tools were destroyed, and there
was considerable damage to the contents of
the house by fire, smoke and water The
insurance was in two companies through
Eugene S. Leonard's agency, both of which
settled their losses yesterday, the aggregate
paid to Mr.. Sabin being STAG.

The Basis of the National strength of
France.

Fashion-that potent ruler Of the femi-
nine world, against whose absolute sway
no revolt has ever been successful-is
almost as much OF a factor in the office of
the banker as In my lady's boudoir" |
was talking today with leading authority
on financial subjects, when, the converse
ton having dIifted, first, TO the recent
drain of gold upon the Bank of England.
and then TO the curren, discussion of
bimetallism in Great Britain, he exclaimed
suddenly Have you ever considered why
II is that France, notwithstanding the fact
that her imports every year exceed her ex-
ports, and that she carries such a large
percentage OF silver money, is nevertheless
able, not only to maintain the highest
financial credit, but actually to support the
Latin Union9 Almost every other nation
would have been bankrupted by the condi-
tions under which France lives. But there
is one thing that saves her, and that is
fashion. II is an absolute fact, proven by
statistics, that Frances prominence as
the leader of fashions makes the nation
one of the richest and most powerful
in the world. Without fashion France
would be as impotent and poor as Italy.
The dressmakers and milliners of Paris
are the chief sources of French wealth.
The women of the fashionable world are
the chief contributors to the credit and
glory Of France
Do you think that this is an exaggera-
ton? Let me show you the facts. N.
Thery, editor OF AZ Economistte Euro
peen,' not long ago made the most pains
taking investigations, as a result of which
he was able TO announce that France re-
ceived annually from the payments and
purchases of foreign travellers in her ter
ritory the enormous sum of $500 900, 900
net, over and above the amount of the pay
ments Of French travellers in other coun-
ties. The sum of 500, 900, 900 is by far
the main source of French wealth. France
receives about $3.50, 600, 600 a year in inter
est from foreign investments, and about
S6O, 200, 900 year from her merchant ma
rine and profits on foreign business, but
from the total of these two items must be
substracted the annual deficiency in the
French foreign trade, for, as have said,
France imports much more than she eX-
ports. The foreign travellers who yearly
crowd the shops of Paris really keep
France alive. Fashion is the basis of her
national strength.-N. Y. Letter

the cemetery but the ground was occupied
by row of large trees which were remov-
ed number OF years ago and bank wall
laid. These lots are nov the most desir-
able In the whole cemetery. There have
been burials in three Of them, but no mon
ument has yet been set. Doubtless there
will before long in most or all of them.
1t has been voted by the ladies' aid So
ciety to undertake the work of painting
the church. A committee was chosen
some weeks ago to have charge of IT, This
committee consists of Mr.. and Mrs. Reu-
ben Miller, Mr. and Mrs. A. p Ranney
and Mr. and Mrs. II. A. Goodhue. The
committee called a meeting of the society
connected with the church to obtain per
mission to make whatever repairs are
necessary about the windows and TO paint,
last Wednesday evening and 1t Is expected
that the job will be entered upon at once.
The society has some funds on hand, but
not enough. II is proposed to have bar
vest festival about Nov. 10 in aid Of this
object.
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry A. Hall of Rutland
gave Deacon +. Hall a complete surprise
upon the occasion of his nth birthday,
Oct. l6, by their unexpected appearance
at the deacon's residence. They cele-
brated the occasion to their entire salts
faction and returned to Rutland Tuesday.
Deacon Hall is not quite as spry as he
once was, but he has been active enough
to pick 40 barrels of apples from the Car
penter orchard belonging to the church, OF
which he has the care But perhaps even
/ this feat has been surpassed by Capt. d.

who has gathered all the fruit from his
orchard unaided to nearly the same
amount. The Captain does the larger
part of the work upon his farm, having
/ little help except in haying He Is nov
busy in husking his corn, of which he haC
two or three acres.
