Called Home.

DR.. Twitchell and G. d. Milligar
returned Saturday from a very sue
cessful fishing and hunting trip up on
the Gunnison, and since then the
RECORD force has been feasting upon
mountain trout and venison. Few
parties going out from Canon have
had better success than these gentle
men. Mr.. Milligan succeeded in bag
ging one 81 pound trout and several
above the 2-pound mark, while the
doctor was content with couple of
3-pounders and scads of little fellows
weighing from pound to two pounds.
1t is said the report of the big catches
reached Gunnison, and the game war
den went up to see what they were
doing. Doc said he hadn't lost any
game warden, and, besides, it occurred
to him that he had an engagement to
fill tooth here in Canon. so he came
home.
Milligan brought the tooth home to
have it filled. This accounts for their
coming home on Saturday, instead of
staying and fishing over Sunday as all
good fishermen do.

Senator Dcpcw,s New story.

From a New York Letter: Here is
a new story Senator Dcpew tells on
himself: An inquisitiNe Britisher, a
noble duke, wanting to know exactly
how to pronounce the gifted orators
name, went for him after the manner
of Lii Hung Chang. (By the way, Lis
inqnisitorial methods are being adopt
ed by not a few swells.) 'Do they
call you De-poo, Dep-oo, De-Pue, Dep
pc or Decp-er??' asked his grace. III
never was called in my life, your grace,
because never played was the
Americans reply. 'Ha, ha! One of
your poker jokes laughed the duke.
But I am serious" Then the senator,
also serious, answercd: There are
people in my country who spell their
paine Dupuy and call it Dn-pue. There
is a great Trcnchman who spells his
pane Dupuy and calls it Du-Pwee. We
call a guy a CHI: the Frenchmen call
him a ghee. In England you call a
eve Il yo: we cali her a yew. Now,
Your grace, just consider how deep
| am aud how shallow are you and
you'll have my name pronounced
right, De-pew."

Prior to the sale of this celebrated

This was for a fine copy of the 2O-cent

as one of the rarest American stamps.

Rio de Janeiro, Aug. 1O.-The Argen.

have been arranged in honor of Pres

The president of Brazil. DIR. Ferraz de

President Roca was then taken
ashore in a magnificent barge and

SHELLED BY
GUNBOAT NApIDAN
The Terrified Inhabitants Flee to
the Hills at the Approach
Of the Boat.
COMMANDMENT WITHOUT WARNING
The Gunboat Commanders Hasty
Action Due to a Report That
Filipinos Had Reoccu-
pied the Town.

Manih, Aug. 2.-(Via Hong Kong.)-
The gunboat Napidan last week
shelled Paete, on the lake, near Santa
Cruz. The town was full of people,
who had been encouraged to return
after General Lawton's expedition
having been assured they would not be
molested if they peaceably attended
their business. Lieutenant Copp, who
is in command of the Napidan, heard
that the insurgents had @reoccupied the
town, and, stealing close in, opened
fire with his 6-pounders without warm
Ing. The people, seeing the boat az.
preaching, fed to the hills in a terri
tied condition and with barely time to
escape. One child was killed and many
buildings damaged. The authorities
express great regret on account of the
incident.
After the taking of Calamba by the
americans General Lawton ordered
that Captain Otis, of the Washington
regiment, be relieved of his command
and placed under arrest on account OF
the slowness and seeming reluctance
of the companies under his command
in obeying the order to disembark
from the cascoes and wade through
marshes under fire. The men say that
n majority of them had been sick and
were unfit for duty, and that they
were given to understand that they
would not be asked to do any moro
tighting.

topping over. He said that there was
one unearthly shrek as it went down
and after that silence.
The Stratford town hall, where the
bodies were taken, was soon besieged
by more than 1000 persons, some of
whom had relatives or friends among
the dead, and the deputy shcritfs in
charge had much difficulty in handling
the crowd of weeping women and
anxious men.
All the bodies of the Bridgeport
dead and the few unidentified were
taken to the morgue at Bridgeport late
last night. 1t has been aseertained
that forty fares were registered and
these, with the young children that
did not have to pay. the motorlnan and
an extra motorman who was being

Motorman Hamilton is suffering
from such a severe shock that it was
impossible to learn anything from him
last night. President Andrew Radell,
of the railway stated that it
was impossible for him to account for
