ing Water at Speed OF Six Knots.
The Sportsmen's Review tells of the
strength of the devil fish, which are
caught regularly as u pastime at only
one point on the gulf. The fishermen
of Naples on the Gulf OF Mexico fish for
the devil fish and get them.
"Col. Bob Holloway" according to
the Review, was fishing for the mon
sters with a party of friends, from
naphtha launch, when they had a strike.
The launch was 25 feet long and con-
tanned ten persons. This the fish towed
around for an hour, attaining a speed of
six knots at times, in spite of the fact
that the propeller of the launch was
backing. The whole fight was in sight
Of the hotel guests, who had assembled
TO see the battle between lin and pro-
peller. When the animal was finally
tired out and towed ashore IL required
SIX men to drag it out. On propping its
mouth open a salt barrel could have
been rolled into it. II measured 22 feet
from wing tip to wing tip"
Another Naples fish story follows
"Mrs. Hugh Mcdonald was fishing for
sharks. She had bite Onpulling in,
the head of shark that had been at
least four feet long was found. Some
shark had bitten the first capture in
two. Later the big fellow was hooked
by Mrs. Mcdonald and was pulled in.
The second shark was more than 10
feet long"

The following are some OF the epi-
grammatic remarks OF Col. Carter which
are preserved in the recent version,
says the Chicago News:
"My fire is my friend and sometimes
it seems my only friend; it talks to me
for hours until we both get sleepy to-
gcther and cover IT up with its gray
blanket of ashes and then go to bed my
self"
salt yo' food, sub, with humor, sea-
son it with wit and sprinkle it all over
with the charm of goodfellowship, but
never poison it with the cares of yo'
life. 1t is an insult to 20 digestion,
besides bein', sur, mark Of bad breed
in"
"When you are gettin' old and have
no wife to love you and no children to
make yo' heart glad, wood fire, full of
honest old logs, every one of which is
doin' its best to please yo', is a great
comfort"
"Fill yo' glasses, gentlemen, and
drink to the health OF that greatest of
all blessings--a true southern lady"
"Jelly, with canvasback? No, sub,
not suspicion of it. A pinch Of salt,
dust of cayenne, then shut yo' eyes
and mouth and don't open them sept

STRANGE CASES OF POISONING
ella Bite Was Not Deadly, But um-
hr.IIu uwee xIo.

In the far northeastern part Of Ari-
zona territory, that is to say in Navajo
county, a young man was bitten by
ella monster recently. Almost at the
same time, at Yuma, In the extreme
southwestern corner Of the territory,
a little girl ate some berries that fel.
from the umbrella trees that grow so
plentiful in southern Arizona. The
young man lived, but the little maiden
died. The latter case is the more re-
markable, perhaps. for until this in
stance not even the medical profession
suspected that there was anything
poisonous about the umbrella tree. The
child's name was Dora Lynch, her IA
ther being well-known in Yuma. The
lucky young man in the northeast was
Orrin Barney. who had started out with
a party for Utah. He was following a
wagon up hill and "scotching" with
rocks. He reached down for rock
and picked up a Gila monster. The
monsters head had TO be cut of to
loosen the grip on Barney's hand. The
latter suffered severe pain for two days,
but then recovered. His only remedies
were tobacco and whisky.

An ex-justice OF the peace tells the
following story; During the time he
was in Office young man was
brought up before him on the charge
OF gambling. The evidence was con-
elusive, and the judge imposed fine,
which was paid ON the spot When
the case adjourned the defendant re-
mained behind and asked the Judge
for few moments conversation.
"rhe case is over" he began, and
the fine has been paid, and it's set
tied us far as that goes, but want
to tell you how it happened. You
see, the cop told us II we didn't stop
he'd run us In. Well, we were play
ing II jackpot, l had an ace, three
queens and king before the draw.
l discarded the ace and king and
drew another queen, There were
good hands out against me, and they
tried to blum me out, and | stayed
with them. Now, what want to
know is what you would have done
in case like that7"
"Stnyed with them II the gallows
had been In sight" cried the excited
judge. "Why in the name of common
sense was not that evidence brought
out AT the trial?"-Salt Lake Tribune.

Many years ago Rev, Jedediah
Dewey, an ancestor of Admiral Dewey,
was holding Eeryices In honor Of the
victory at Bennington, and, as he was
right and proper, was giving Provi-
dence all the credit for the triumph of
the American arms. Ethan Allen, who
was present, chafed under this neglect
of his own part in the battle, and, ris-
ing in his pew in the very middle of the
long prayer as IL is called, said:
"Parson Dewey, Parson Dewey, Par
son Dewey The clergyman stopped
and opened his eyes. The intrepid Al
len went on: please mention to the
Lord about my being there" Not
daunted by this outrageous Interrupt
tion, the holy man thundered: "Sit
down. thou bold blasphemer, and lis
ten to the Word Of God."-Detroit

Where the shouting children play around
the doors,
Where the growing babies creep upon ths
the feet go on and on and the rattle never
stops,
And food OF sound is poured from n thou
sand busy shops.
And through all the roar and banging
] can hear
Rising DER the busy changing. \
Sweet and clear
A song OF thanks TO Heaven for the work
there Is 10 do,
For the hands there are TO do II and the jon
it's leading to-
