At a certain season in the year--usual-
ly about Oct. lit Is the custom of the
commissioners who have charge of the
great parks in Chicago to permit fishing
In the artificial lakes at certain hours
in the morning, the fishermen in all cases
being required to use the boats that are
kept for hire. This is to prevent the
banks from being thrOnged with gangs
of hoodlums.
Early one October morning the editor
of one of the great Chicago dailies ap-
peared at a West Side park with a friend,
both equipped with fishing outfits of the
most approved pattern. They secured a
boat, and then the editor inquired if
there we re any live minnows on hand
The keeper of the boat house inspected
his bait bucket and found just one, a di-
minutive specimen, about an inch and a
half in length. He fished this out ana
handed 1t over. Throwing him n silver
half dollar and telling him TO keep the
change. the editor took this minnow,
climbed into the beat and rowed out ia
the middle of the lISe, where he fished
for half an hour without result.
At the end of that time he hauled in
his line, looked carefully at the minnow,
took q pencil and note book from his
pocket, did a little figuring and returned
to the shore.

5000 pound
This. It is believed, Is the highest price
ever paid for live fish in Chicago.

MINooKA.

The result of the recent primaries
have. from all indications, hopelessly
wrecked the few remaining fragments
of the once powerful factor in Lacka-
wanna politics. II appears the aspir-
ants for the supervisorship in both dis
tricts were not satisfied with the re-
suit and the friends of the unsuccess-
full candidates have openly charged the
boards with Irregularities. A rumor is
now going the rounds that John Nee
and Thomas Butler will file nomina-
tion papers. The latter move will in
all probability form a nucleus for an
independent ticket. The Republicans
have not issued a call Tor the con-
fereeS To meet yet.

Why the Sky Looks Blue.
rom the Boston Herald.


Did It ever strike you to inquire why
the cloudlcss depths of Sky above us are
so delicateiy blue? II isn't that the gas
we call air is In itself blue. So far as we
know 1t is transparent and absolutely
colorloss. No; the blue comes from re-
Elected light Air Is never pure; you
couldn't live in 1t If 1t were. Countless
millions OF tiny PARTICLES, chiefly Of
water, are always suspended I'm II and
these arrest the free passage of light
Each particle has a double reflection
enc internal the other external--and so
the reelected rays suffer the usual result
OF what is called interference" and
show color.
You will notice that the sky appears
much bluer II you look straight up than
II you look across toward the horizon.
The reason Is that in the first instance
you are naturally looking through a
much thinner layer of air than in the
second, If there were no air, and conse-
quently no watery vapor, and nothing
TO interfere with the free passage OF
light even at midday the sky above
would look perfectly black, and all the
stars palmer than they do now at mid
night.
