We're vainly casting their most tempting
flies, he almost Immediately hooked a
6pound salmon
Well, there was too much danger of
losing the fish for Mr.. Whitman t.
spend any time in playing him. SO
grabbing the line, he stiff -heeled the
astonished salmon right in on to the
apron. Just imagine the surprise that
must have come to the hitherto UNI
curbed creature when he felt himself
IN spite of his resistance, being rapidly
taken from the pool, and his chagrip
when he found out that his captor was
not learned in the art of taking fish.
When he got the salmon on to the
apron, Mr., Whitman literally Jumped
on him with both feet Failing to stop

fish, which was still demonstrating
against this unsportsmanlike treat
ment, and, rushing up into the road
where Mr.. Chandler and others were
standing, said, How shall 1 kill him ?
How shall l kill him?"
After killing" his fish he went back

where generosity had been stretched

PRICES OF MEAT GO UP.
Probability of an Advance of is or 20
Per Cent This Week.

There is prospect Of raise in the re-
tail price of meat. It is expected that
this week will see some action toward
an advance by the wholesale dealers,
and this will mean a corresponding ad-
vance in the retail rates, probably of
from Is to rs per cent. The retail deal
ers will probably hold meeting this
week to arrive at uniform prices in
Worcester. Combinations have already
been made in Boston and Providence,
A raise at the present time would
tend to diminish the demand for meat.
so the dealers think, and this would
have the effect of bringing the western
cattle men to terms. The western men
have been the cause Of the necessity of
advancing the prices, and Chicago beef
is at present rs cents higher per hun
dred In Worcester than 1t was several
weeks ago.
