Cattle receipts were very light, but
there was quite a little leftover stuff in
the pens, and this made enough to meet
the fair demand. There was nothing ex-
ceptionally good in either the butcher or
stock offerings. Prices ruled about steady.
Stock heifers had been well cleaned out,
and trade was a little more active in
steer stuff. The good cattle sold readily
but the common animals were very slow.

ator Davis of Minnesota. Senator Gear OF
Iowa and Senator Quay of Pennsylvania.
What they don't know about fishing is
not worth learning, aud what they have
net told about fishing is not worth hear
ing. OF course, each one thinks his par
ticular kind of fishing is superior to all
others. and is loyal to mis- native streams,
but all will go far afeld in search of
sport.
Senator Frye is probably the most
consistent sportsman of the quartet. He
goes into camp in the Maine woods every
summer, wears a flannel shirt, eats bacon
and is glad to get it, and lives the life of
a woodsman. OF course, he comes back
to Washington all the better for it. lie

A skiliful Fisherman.
Senator Cushman X. Davis OF Mime
sofa is an ardent angler. Let anybody
suggest a fishing trip and he will drop
his cares as school boy drops his books
to go a-swimming. Treaties and conven-
tons are forgotten by the head of the
committee on foreign relations. for the
time, and he is all impatience to yet a
line. Senator Davis is as skillfnl as ha
is earnest. when fishing. He has had
great experience in the lakes of Mime
sofa. which abounds in game fish. Wheth-
er it is the agile trout which rises to a
fly, or the big pickerel that takes bait
on a troll, it is all one to him. and every
famous fishing water in his State abounds
with legends of his skill. He is not es-
pecially approachable in his official ca
paeity, but he is another being in camp
and the old boatmen address him with
impunity as "Cush.' A man is a fool
who wears a robe of dignity when ne
goes fishing. He will trip up in it sure.

water and tumbling acres Of eddy and
whirlpool, beset with boulders and all

as lively and as gamey fish as man
