as he comes into sight Of the brook, af-
ter vigorous tramp over country roads
and through rough pastures wet with
dew, he stops an instant to take in the
distant musical murmur of the flowing
water and thinks of the numbers of
speckled fellows that lie waiting for his
bait. 1t is one of the glorious moments
of life, it contains such possibilities.
There is no loneliness in the day for
him even though he be without ony hui
man companion. The brook is compan-
ion enough. 1t chatters constantly in no
monotonous fashion and allures it's fas-
cinated follower through woods, through
meadows and through rocky pastures
as long as daylight lasts. And when
the sun is sinking he finds himself hard
ly ready to turn homewards. Though
his basket is by no means full of fish he
still hears the sound of possibilities
ahead of him. He may go home sure of
one nights perfect sleep. He has been
living the day in a world of ideals, for

contains only three fish throughout its
course. If it contains one, it promises
hundred. Nobody knows how fast fish,
especially trout multiply; and the num-
Der may stretch out to the crack of
doom. At least it will take a days
work to lessen in any degree the zeal OF
the true fisherman.
The days work ought to begin early.
Indeed-if we may be pardoned the Dull
it may begin the day before. The
reels, the rods, the hooks the lines, and
the bait all have to be looked after
Tackle has way of hiding when want
ed; and in any case the fisherman VIII
have made sure of his equipment, For
there is always before his eyes the large
number of handsome trout winch ne
may capture. 1t is no definite number
of course. Just before dawn, as he IS
getting ready to start and sees the flrst
deep purple of morning coming into the
sky he likes to dwell for moment ON
possibilities-not statistics! Then again

TROUTING.

The season has opened. And most of
us propose to take our chances of
weather and Of fish, and reach the
banks of some ripping book in which
the deeper pools look prospectiveiy
promising. He is an unfortunate NOR
tai who cannot get one day In the spring
to try his luck at the gentle sport which
old Izaak Walton loved so well. The
trout are not what they used to be eth
err in size or numbers, at least so the old
men say; but the brooks are the same
that dashed down the slopes of
the pastures and the hillsides a hundred
years ago when our great grand fathers
were young, and have not lost their
charm to the new generations. Fishing
never was a sport that was much at
fected by sta tistlcs anyway. There is
no such thing as convincing the man or
the boy who has prepared for day S
trip down some brook that the stream

tors Meeting.
A meeting of the directors of the
National Folding Box and Paper COM
pany was held yesterday in New York
and it was expected that some action
would be taken towards deposing F. H.
Benton of this city from the position
which he now holds as manager and
treasurer of the company. 1t seems
that D. S. Walton of New York wants
the position and also wants the office
removed to New York Mr. Walton
and his friends in the company hold
the majority of the stock. Mr.. Benton
was seen last night after his return
from New York and asked about the
result of the meeting. Mr.. Benton re-
fused absolutely to talk about the mat
ter and would give no information.

known men, strangers in that neigh
borhoOd, entered the Tygart's Valley
Bank through the window and blew
the safe open with explosives thought
to benitro-glycerine. They first broke
open the blacksmith shop of Homer
Rose on the west side of the river there
and that Of G. w. Barnes on the east
side and secured tools with which to
do their looting. They entered the
bank about o'clock and applied their
explosives. The report of the explo-
sion was heard by residents OF the
town but did not arouse suspicion.
The robbers secured from 5000 to
5000 In cash and then skipped on a
hand car toward Grafton. They we're
seen passing through Postyille be-
tween philippi and Grafton just before
daybreak. The safe was literally blown
to pieces and was scattered all overthe
banking room. The stove was also
blown to pieces.
