MISSOURI FISHING STORIES.

MT. J. W. Gandee and George Stum- nj have been enjoying great sport up tfn Illinois river. They hunted and fshed in the neighborhood of Ramps vile. Mir. Stumm says the Illinois river is in the finest condition known in months. We had no trouble to catch The mornings we put in hunting. made a famous shot just at daylight Thursday. A big flock of blue-wing teal went whizzing past and l blazed away without taking any particular aim, but nine plump little birds fell at the shots. I fired both barrels almost simultaneously MT. Candee did some fine quail shooting, killing thirty-tive birds in forty shots, We caught some handsome jack salmon, and I landed a six-pound pickerel right at the govern ment locks. We caught variety of fish, Bass, jack salmon crappie, sun perch, goggle eye sunfish, channel cat fish and pickerel We did not weigh our fish, but they filled big wash boil CT. We bagged twenty-nine ducks, thirty-sevsn quail and twelve squirrels. That isn't bad for two amateurs, Peo- pie up the Illinois are very sore over the prospect of the Chicago drainage canal being run into the Illinois river. They assert that the discharge will drive all the game fish from the river that is now the great artery that feeds the lakes and streams
 Talking about a nice time,' said w. T. Mcclellan, myself and a gentleman named Horton, from Pine Bluff. Ark. had it down near Delta, irl Scott and Cape Girardeau counties l never took So much interest in squirrel shooting before. and nevsr saw them so thick.
 We just wandered cut in the timber
 loafed around in the hickory ridges and let the squirrels come to us. The weather was pleasant, and the squirrel frisked around in all directions We killed two hundred in three days, be- sides one turkey and forty-fve ducks. There were no hardships endured on the trip except carrying in our ducks
 We were strolling back about a mile from the railroad track when we dis covered a lake or big slough. We were first attracted to the place by the quacking of mallard ducks. As we crept in we could see them everywhere It was rather cold and clustering and the ducks came in for shelter. By arS every one retrieved by little, old yell low squirrel dog, who knew more about hunting than most of the high-priced dogs. We lugged the big birds about a
 mile and a half. That was a job I would not undertake again. That is a
 great hunting country down there. There are all kinds of game. "-St Louis l obe-Democrat.

Credit to Whom Credit is Due.

The following named persons were a committee who so acceptably and sue cessfully arranged minstrel show which was presented in North Haven grange some time last March and af- forward by urgent request presented the same minstrel show to the public in Memorial hall: R. O. Eaton and wife. N. H. Marks and wife, A. B. Clinton and wife. E. L. Ball and wife, all mem bers of North Haven grange.
 Please print the above to correct a mistake made by you in an article printed in Mondays issue of the Jour nal and Courier, in which you say: An entertainment will be given in Memo rial hall, North Haven, on November 1S called The Old Maids Convention, and the entertainment is under the di- irection of Mrs. Craig of New Haven who recently so successfully carried out and presented to the public minstrel show in North Haven"
 We are of the opinion that Mrs. Craig never even heard of our minstrel show, and she certainly had nothing to dc

which bespealls excellent taste and skill on the part of the artist, as well as long study and painstalling.
 The chalice will be donated to Ro- man Catholic church in Maryland, but not in clay. Who the donor is even MT. saxton does not know. Neither has he any idea to what church it is to be giv- en. The magnificent affair was or dered from MT. Saxton about ninety days ago, and he was given free hand to make it as beautiful as he could, the question of cost not entering into the arrangement. It is understood that tn chalice will be presented to the church fer which it is intended by wealthy Baltimore lady. Of one hundred and eighty precious stones which go to beautify the chalice, most were the property of the lady for whom it is be- ing made and were old and valuable family jewels.
 The bowl, which is about three and half inches in diameter, is surrounded with border of florid and free renais- sance scroll. The scroll, which was worked and designed by MT. Saxton personally, is graceful relief decora- tion in which one hundred and forty four old Brazilian and East Indian stones are arranged. Six fire old Bra , gillian stones, five carats each, are set in the massive staff. At the Junction of tfe staff and the base eight brilliant East India stones are arranged. On the graceful Gothic base is set a dainty cress formed of eleven East India stones.
 What satisfies MT. Saxton most is that it is absolutely unique in design. For the past week he worked at night on tn chalice in order to have it com pleted in tine for presentation. The pastor of the lucky church which is to get the handsome gift does not know anything about the presentation-Bal ! timore Sun.

They Are Urged to Join in an Organiza-
 ton.
 A very enthusiastic meeting was held at the residence of William H. Warren 43 Beers street, last night, which was of general or formative nature, at which active steps were taken to per- feet an organization of the men who suffered the horrors of Imprisonment in the war of '61-'65. MT. Warren served as chairman, and all indulged in a spir- ited talk over the necessities of imme- diate action in the above direction. To this end a committee on membership was appointed, consisting of the chair man, above named, and George w. be hoped that all who were incarcerated in the so-calleu military prisons of the south will send their names as well as those of all known to them to the com mittee, so as to enable them to reach all of the above named class.
 The organization is intended to be historical, patriotic, social and mutual ly helpful, and the common hardships endured by these men certainly ought to bring together those who have all felt the kindred ties of suffering for the old flag, choosing death before dishonor," thus bringing together the natural clements for an organization cemented by the strongest human bonds of kindred sympathy.

New Britain Defeated New Haven Last
 Night.
 New Britain, Nov. 14-Although New Britain defeated the New Haven polo team to tonight, the game was clos CT than the score indicates. The home team won by superior team work, for while the Elm City players put lots of vim into their work, they did not help one another in the manner expected of national leaguers. The last period was really the fastest and six goals were scored. The grand center play of Jean, who scored three goals, and the brilliant shot of McGilvray, who took a ball from the spot and scored in five sec onds, were noteworthy features. The players did not take advantage of the rest between periods, and there were forty-five minutes of continuous play ing.

Mir. Stumm is foreman of Merriam's confectionery establish ment. Some months ago, on leaving the heated work room to run across the street on an errand, he was caught out in the rain. The result was that when ready to go home that night he was unable to walk, owing to inflam- niatory rheumatism. He was taken home, and on arrival was placed in front of a good fire and thoroughly rubbed with Chamberlain's Pain Balm. During the evening and night he was repeatedly bathed with this liniment, and by morning was relieved of all rheumatic pains. He now takes espe eial pleasure in praising Chamberiain's Pain Balm, and always keeps a bottle of it in the house. For sale by H. C.. Hitchcock, druggist.

A SHOOTING AFFRAY.

The usual quietude of Globe was seriously disturbed yesterday evening by shooting scrape which happened on lower Broad street. Not wishing to prejudice the case we will simply state that the difficulty arose over a poker game in the Klondike card room Believing he had got the worst of 1t Jack McCnlloch took sixshooter from the rack in the corner of the room, and as it is alleged, leveled it at Homer DuBois and then at Ed Wells, both of whom were in the game with him. When McCulloch turned his attention to Wells, Dubois got out and hurried into his saloon next door where he procured shot gun and reappeared on the sidewalk. McCulloch in the meantime had come out of the Klon- dike, pistol in hand.
 Who fired the first shot is disputed, and 1t is not within our province, be- fore tho legal examination, to express an opinion. McCulloch backed of and crossed the street diagonally to- ward Kellner & Co.'S store, and 1t is said fired three or four shots. Dubois, it is alleged by some witnesses, fired twice, but others say he fired but once. McCulloch was hit in the left side, the shot ranging from above the ear to below the knee. There were 35 or 40 men on the sidewalk at the time and it was almost miracle that some one was not hit by bullets from McCulloch's pistol
 McCulloch was taken to Dr. Clay pools office, and an examination showed that his wounds were not serious. Charges were preferred against both men, and they were released on $500 bonds each. Mir. Dubois hearing was set for this afternoon at 2 o'clock, at which hour the case was called and continued till Saturday at 10 o'clock. McCulloch's hearing is set for the same day.
