that race now belongs TO Harvard.

On last Sunday morning Arniea Scott
and Circus Doyle concluded to take a
day off and catch mess of fish. In
order to make full day of it, they left
the city at FIVE in the morning, and IN
their anxiety for. an early start, they
neglected to supply themselves with
the necessary liquid refreshments, con-
sequently were reduced to the neces-
sity of quenching their thirst from the
stream in WHICH they were fishing. The
day being warm, the sun shining bright
and hot, and no shade to protect them
from its piercing rays, of course their
thirst was great, and during the day
they imbibed considerable quantity
OF water. AS near as we can ascertain
nary a fish was caught during the day.
Late in the afternoon they began to
discuss the propriety of returning to
town and finally determined to start,
when Circus suddenly asked Arnica
what he had done with the, fish, "Oh,
replied Arnica, 'we had SO few they
were not worth packing to town, "Few,
was the rejoinder, ''why, I'VE had enough
to feed half of Winslow." The more
they talked the more angry they be-
came, until finally they came to blows
elinched and rolled off a steep embanK-
ment into twenty feet Of water. This
somewhat cooled their fiery passions
and they returned to town. We have
had occasion, once before, to say some
thing about the peculiar effect the water
in certain localities in this section had
on different persons.
