this morning, but later it advanced four
points in a few minutes nearly to So. 4
frightened short interest seemed to be the
reason Of the boom. The outlook for the

price.

generally considered to be significant and

group. Colorado Fuel and Iron was strong
also, getting above 40. This company has
an advantage In location over ali the 9TH

president pro tempore of the Senate; Sen
ptor Davis of Minnesota, Senator Gear of
Iowa and Senator Quay of Pennsylvania.
What they don't Snow about fishing is
not worth learning. and what they have
not told about fishing is not worth hear

ticular kind of fishing is superior to all
sthcrs. and is loyal to his native streams,
but all will so far atield 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
