One week ago the party of tourists
who have made it lively for fish and
| fowl for the past two months was de-
pleted by the leaving of Mr.. Burgess
for Cleyeland. On Thursday, how
ever, we had recovered sufficiently to
start for another fishing trip to Cap
tiva pass. We ran in about 5 hours
from Stump Pass to Captiva, a dis
tance of about 80 miles. The next
morning we went out on the Pass fish
ing. We caught red grouper, black
grouper, and I succeeded in pulling
on board a small jewish, weighing l6
pounds. Fishing near us was an ell
derly gentleman with a guide to row
hin. He hooked large fish near US;
he thought he had a tarpoon and be-
came quite excited Thought he owned
the Pass, didn't know we had Kan
sas party on board J. After about
three quarters of an hour. he landed
on the beach a shark, little less than
9 #. long. We got nearly as much
fun out of it as he did. About II
o'clock we wound up our morning
fishing and started for home with
fresh breeze dead ahead. Ran across
Charlotte Harbor and saw lying there
two large four-masted schooners' one
loaded with phosphate and the other
light. A very pretty incident occurred
here. A pretty sloop came running
across our wake, and seeing who we
were they ran up the English flag un-
der the Stars and Stripes and saluted
us. Capt. Mack had met them before
and had been of some service in Civ

position was most prominent one.
When the eiyil war came on Helm was
a rabid secessionist. He could not
praise the South too highly, and could
not heap enough abuse upon the North.
He was too old to go into the war with
his sons. and remained at home. doing
all he could to help the confederate
cause and harass the Yankees who in
vaded the state. Finally he became so
obstreperous that the federal general

pied III the state. his wide connection
ana especially his inability to do any

tenuatlon and he was released. Instead
OF Fronting by the warning, the old
man became more persistent than ever
In his course. Once more he was
clapped into Jail. This happened two
or three times, and finally. while he
was still locked up. the matter was
brought to the attention of the federal
authorities. Even President Lincoln
was appealed to and asked to COM
init the ardent Southerner to an inde1l-
mite confinement in order that he might
be curbed
Lincoln listened to the statement of
the case with more than usual interest
Then he leaped back and began to
speak With a smile on his face. You
are talking about old man John Helm?
Wen. did you know that used to live,

he was kind to me. He seemed to like
me as boy, and he never lost an OPP

almost pathetic smiles, that / would
