THE FARMER FISHERMAN.
Some OF the Interesting Features OF Mack
erel Fishing In Old New England.

come Oh the interesting Features OF Mack
erel Fishing In Old New England.
Catching mackerel was the poetry Of
fishing. Ordinarily there was only dan
ger enough To give zest to it's prosecu-
tion, while the rivalry between vessels
and even between different individuals
OF crew had all the elements of sport.
Each cove had it's clipper that could
outstrip others, at least in the opinion
OF its local champions, and each OF the
larger ports usually had several claim
ants to the honor OF being the swiftest
Of the fleet. The fame of the more not
ed of these spread from end to end OF
the coast The names Of swift fishing
schooners became household words
among the seafarers, and at many a
fireside and grocery from Eastport to
New London discussions of their re-
spective merits divided attention with
tales Of big catches of fish.
Evidently there was q pride in the
vessels and a reliance upon the indus
try, and though the returns sometimes
failed to meet expectations-for the sea
harvest is an uncertain one at best
reasonable prosperity prevailed, and
there were happy and contented homes
along the shores Of the northeastern
states, where in many cases fishermen
spent their winters with their families,
and some even deferred going to sea in
spring until after ''the planting was in"
Then these farmer-fishermen devoted
the remainder OF the season TO the sea,
leaving the gardening at home" to be
attended to by the women folks" or by
boys too young to pull an oar or haul a
line.-Joseph William Collins in Har-
per's MAGAZINE

lnt OKLAHOMA FLOOD.
Death List Not SO Great as al
First Reported.
Over Five Hundred Homes
Are Ruined.


Cuth~ie n. r.. .Anril I'm the dood-
stricken valley of the Cottonwood river
yesterday was one heroic effort towards
the rescue Of those unfortunates whose
lives were still endangered, and for the
relief Of the hundreds Of destitute and
hungry. 1t seems a certainty that the
loss OF life in the deluge will not exceed
a score.
All day. persons who were supposed TO
have been drowned were found clinging
to bushes or driftwood down the stream
on the west bluffs, or scattered in farm
houses for miles.
During the latter part of Wednesday
the torrents cut off communication with
the submerged district, and in the ex-
citement the death list was swelled to
hundreds.
The family of Wesley McGill, reported
as drowned, was found safe Among the
bodies found during the day were those
of Mrs. Fannie Ruffin and five children,
all lodged in a pile Of driftwood. These,
with George Owen, drowned while res
cuing others, Frank Meyers, Mrs. Jane
Watt Mrs. Francis Moore, Mrs. Drum
mond, Mrs. Dennis and child, and Mrs.
Watson, are the only identified dead,
though many are still missing.
The recedinG flood has left an immense
pile of wreckage at the railroad bridge,
six miles below the city. Search for the
dead at that point has begun, and when
the work was stopped the bodies Of a
white man and a colored baby had been
recovered. 1t is claimed that several
other bodies have been sighted in the
debris there.
An attempt was made to poll the res
idents of West Guthrie, but the count
taken IL not considered at all accurate.
1t shows SO persons missing, most of
them being negroes.
During the day systematic relief was
perfected and carried on. Ferries piled
across the river, carrying provisions and
clothing. and returning with injured.
Such were carefully cared for in pri-
vate homes i'm Guthrie. BY nightfall
ample arrangements had been made for
the immediate relief of the homeless,
and there was an assurance of no fur
there suffering at least for the time be-
ing.
Five hundred homes were swept away;
$50 houses were wrecked and 20 stores
were destroyed, leaving 1000 people
homeless and half as many destitute. as
a result of the floods.
