Fishing With Shovels.

The greatest sport we have heard of
in Parsons, S. D., recently is the catch
OF fish that Hubert Bares, Anton Fergen
and some others recently made. They
went to the Jim river, near Victor
Uhrich's place. and in a slough which
was formed last spring for the overflow
OF the Jim river they cut hole in the
ice and with scoop shovels they took
out over $50 pounds of fine fish. Thew
said that they had found fish frozen fast
to the ice which, when held in their
hands, revived and assumed their nat.
ural condition. 1t is said there are
thousands Of fish in the ponds and
sloughs that were formed last spring by
the overdowed river. Most of these will
perish in short time after the ice COM
menoes to freeze for want of water and
air. There are no doubt many fine pick.
erel in some Of the creek ponds.

Belligerent Mr.. johnson.

This is little story of politics of the
practical kind in a large city, not New

were two factions. The speaker of the

then dominant power in a district in

other faction had no iIsention of going to

A Sailors Account of the Names Entrance
to Havana Harbor.
Harry Andrews, carriage painter Of
Reading, Pa, recently received letter
from his brother, Frank Andrews, aged
26, who was seaman ON board the
Maine for the past three years. Mr..
Andrews letter, dated at Havana, gives
description Of the way the United
States warship entered Havana fully
prepared for action should she have been
! fred on.
"When the Maine received orders to
90 to Havana" Andrews writes, 1--WE
saw that all our guns were in good or
der. Cylinders were filled. shot and
shell broken out and the decks almost
cleared for action. Everything was
ready for business, and we turned in for
a couple of hours sleep. We sighted
Cuba at daylight, and all hands were
soon on deck. We had heard the Span
iards would fire on us, SO we were pre-
pared to return it with interest
"Our orders were to enter Havana,
and it had to be done, so there was no
half way about anything ON this outfit.
AS we steamed in under the guns of
MORO castle we calculated how long it
would take us to silence it. Our turret
guns crews were standing at their guns
under the turrets, out of sight of course,
while the rest of the crew was lounging
around the deck, but at the first shot
from the Spanish they would have soon
found their places, and we could have
shown them one Of the neatest Yankee
tricks that was ever played.
However, nothing happened, and we
steamed in and moved to a buoy. We
kept the ship ready for action until
United States Consul General Lee came
on board. He looked proud and, plank
ing his foot down on the deck, ex.

"We still kept our ammunition ready
and stood night watches ready for bust
ness at moments notice." Andrews
says there were a number of Pennsyl-
vania boys on the Maine.-New York

"Why, they are barred In the rules"
The redheaded man thumped his cue
down vigorously on the floor and with a
contemplating expression demanded, "Who

The little player hesitated. "I'm not

the close score recently between the
Shamrooks of Montreal and the New
York Hockey club. Mr.. Weeks has de-
cided to visit Baltimore and Philadel-
phia for the purpose of securing the CO.
operation Of the various clubs in those
cities toward the organization Of q
league. He thinks there will be no trou-
BILE in getting hearty support from those
sources and afterward other cities may
be induced to join or will do 30 volun-
tarily.
When it was suggested to Mr.. Weeks
that instead of goal posts a cage should
be provided in which the rubber would
have to be sent in order that q goal
might be scored, he replied that he had
been considering the matter of late The
conclusion he had reached was that O
cage would improve the game, but not,
however, such cage as is used in the
two New England roller polo leagues,
which, he thought, would take up too
much space.
Following out this plan cage made
Of netting instead of wire, with three
posts and crossbar in front and TRAN
gular in shape, will be tried, and IL it
proves satisfactory will then be used by
all the clubs. BY making 1t triangular
in shape Mr.. Weeks thinks that it will
allow all the fine playing necessary be-
hind the goal and besides prevent any
fiuke goals being made by reason of the
rubber being knocked the wrong way
between the posts, only to be sent back
from the front for goal. With cage
the rubber would have to be taken out
either to the side or in front of it in
order that point might be scored
