An Expert Swordfish.

Hank Carruthers, of Block Island,
R. l., an old-time fisherman, last year
caught a young sword fish, not more
than two feet long, which had refused
to leave the dead body of its mother,
which he had harpooned after an eX-
citing fight The young fish survived
the transportation to tidal pond be-
hind the Carruthers homestead and the
entrance to the pond was closed with
a net to prevent his escape Since then
Mr.. Carruthers has tanned the fish so
that it will feed from his hand, and the
neighbors had become so accustomed
to the sight that they did not notice it
any more. Last month a French gem
tleman, who is a well known fencing
teacher. NJ. Tierce, had been train
ing the fish furtively. He had made a
soft pad of leather, which he adjusted
on the tip of his sword, like the button
on a foil, and the two gave an exhibit
ton bout of fencing which could not
be equalled for nicely of action and
correctness of dash in the Fencers'
Club. The fish apparently knows all
the rules of the game and carefully re-
trains from committing fouls. He cuts
and slashes swiftly, and several times
he caught M. Tierce unawares, says lne
New York Press, and nearly transfixed
him. The Frenchman has offered Mr..
Carruthers a large sum of money for
the fish which he wishes to exhibit.

Fined the Man who shot the Dor

Squire Henry Grele of Beltzhoover,
Pa, does not like lawyers. He believes
that they stir up too much trouble by
dragging musty old books into his Of
flee and insisting that he follow the
presidents they dig from them. He
has the full approval of his consttu-
ents. His justice is the sort that Is
equitable between man and man. and
not that misnamed stuff that depends
on the technicalities of law books for
a standing.
One of Squire Grelles early cases
was brought against a friend of his.
who was accused of cruelty to animals.
The man had been bothered by a vic
ious dog, and he shot at it. The bull
let cut a piece off its tail. but did no
other harm. The trial attracted
large crowd. There was conflicting
evidence as to the dog. Some of the
witnesses said it was a gentle animal
and others declared that it ought to be
killed.
II will reserf my decision until next
weeg," said the Squire after he had
heard the testimony
He was not satisfied as to the dog.
and while he had the case under con-
sideration he made some inquiries in
the neighborhood He learned that
the dog was bad. But the manning of
it by depriving it of part of its tail was
undoubtedly a cruel act and he did
not see how he could get over that
even to favor his friend
When the day came for him to give
his decision says the Pittsburg Times.
ii was evident to the crowd that had
ga.nered in his Office that he had
made up his mind. He called the de-
PENDANT up.
You admid shooting this dog?" he
asked.
Yes, do, Squire; but the dog is"
DOT will do. Sid down" And he
called the owner of the dog forward
"Ynur dog is bad dog" he said to
him
mo, he isn't, Squire" said the man
he's as gentle as"
DOT will do. Sid down I hat nv
mind made up. | fine the defendant 81
and costs for shooting dot dog"
There was applause from the side
of the room on which the friends of
the dog We're gathered.
"Orderl Order!" commanded the
Squire. 81 hat not vinished. / will fine
the defendant 81 ano costs for shooting
dot dog, but / will gif him one more
shot at the dog"

WclI-Dressrd Man Arouses 'ympathy
The generosity supposed to be hid
den under the mask of the ancient
highwayman is sometimes present un-
der the rags of his modern edition, the
street tramp. A well-dressed man,
who had just left the ferryhouse in
New York after crossing the river,
started to pick his way through the
mud of the crossing. His patent leath-
ers. his silk hat and his shining even
ing dress made him an obvious prey
for the tattered dock bandit, who
slouched up to him with the usual
piteous cry for help to get nights
lodging.
MY dear fellow" said the we'll
dressed man with a sudden instinct Of
frankness, I'm in my store clothes,
but the fact is I've got to walk up
town because I haven't nickel to pay
my car fare"
"Is that so?" said the other in an ex-
cited whisper. well, it amt goin' to
be said | left pard in the lurch when
he was dead broke"
And putting his hand into his rags,
he hauled up a bewildering heap or
silver and offered anything the other
wanted.
The "rard" burst into a shout of
laughter and insisted on shaking hands
with the beggar, though he refused the
nickel. And all through his trudge
home he had plenty of food for
thought, humorous and otherwise.

The Town OF NogoOd.

My friend, have you heard Of the town OF Nogoo
ON the banks OF the River Slow,
Where blooms the Waitawhlle flower, fair,
Where the Sometimeorother scents the air
And the soft Goeasies grow9
1t lies in the Valley Of whatstheuse,
In the province Of Letterslide.
That TiTedfeeing lie native there,
It's the home Of the reckless ldontcare,
Where the Giveitups abide.
It stands at the bottom OF Lasyhill
And is easy to reach, declare.
You've only to fod up ur bar de- and glide
Down the slope of weakwill's toboggau slide
To be landed quickly there.
The town Is ~ old AS the human race,
And / grows with the ght of years.
1t Ia wrapped In the fog of ders dreams,
Its streets are paved with discarded schemes,
And sprinkled with useless tears.
The Collegebred fool and the Richman's heir
Are plentiful there, no doubt,
The rest Of its crowd are a motley crew,
With ev' ry class except one in view
The Foolkiller is barred out.
The town Of Nogood Is all hedged about
By the mountains Of Despair,
No sentinel stands on its gloomy walls,
No trumpet to battle and triumph calls,
For towards alone are there.
My friend from the dead-alve town Nogood
II you would keep far away.
Just follow your duty through good and i'll,
Take this for your motto: 81 can, I will"
And live up to IT each day.
