CATCHING THE FISH BY HAND
Angler From Out Of Town Relates e.
Surprising Story to the Anaconda
Sportsmen.
Especial to Inter Mountain.)

Especial to Inter Mountain.)
Anaconda, Aug. ia fisherman from
Foster creek yesterday related a story
to some of the local anglers that his
aroused their admiration and envy in
the highest degree.
This man says he can catch more fish
with his hands in one hour than any
other two men in Anaconda can with
rods and reels. He says he does it BY
rolling up his trousers and getting in
the creek, wading up stream He feels
in the dark recesses under the rocks IN
the stream. where the fish are always
found during the heat of the day. HI.
seizes them in his hands, and with the
same motion throws them out on the
bank. then chambers out and puts them
on his string. He made the additional
statement that he caught 40 trout in
Is minutes in this manner.
Most Of the local sportsmen are in
clined to doubt the story, but one at
least gives it credence, not, however, as
to the number caught.
Il once saw it DONE" said this gentle
man, land know it is possible. 1t re-
requires great activity and presence of
mind, however, for the majority of men
want to Jerk their hands away when
they strike the cold, clammy fish. s.ssxsae
The grasp and throw must be made
with one motion, for the moment the
fish realizes what is going on he starts
for other and quieter hooks.
II never tried that method of fishing
myself; but often thought I would if
could find a good place. where the water
isn't too cold. You can't use hip boots
for in the STOPPING posture necessarily
assumed they would be half full of water
in no time."
The hand-f1sherman left town without
giving his name, but certain Anaconda
men have determined to pay him visit
and ascertain the truth of his state
ments, and give the new method trial.
If they make a success of it there will
be hard times in store for the merchants
dealing in rods and hooks, to say moth
ing of the lay-off the rock and angl,
worms will get.

WANT GOVERNMENT GROUND.
An Offer to Exchange Wilson Park
for Other Property.

1t is stated on good authority that eff
forts are being made through the medium
of Gen. Joseph Wheeler, on the part of
the owners of Wilson Park, in Congress
Heights, to exchange that park for the
land owned by the Government on the op-
posite side of the road from the Govern
ment Hospital for the Insane. and on
which the new buildings Of the asylum
to be built
The previous negotiations to effect this
exchange it is said. were brought to
close some time ago by the owners of
Wilson Park through letter sent by A.
+. Randle TO the Secretary of the In
terror, which stated that Wilson Park
was not for sale or exchange under any
conditions On this understanding the
Government dropped the matter and pro-
ceeded with the plans for tb- erection Of
the new buildings authorized. The exca-
walton necessary for one of these build
ings is now in progress.
The Secretary Of the Interior. it is un-
derstood, took the position during the pre-
viOus negotiations that the only exchange
the Government would consent to would
be on the basis of acre for acre. The new
proposition has not as yet been presented
to the Secretary of the Interior. General
Wheeler, however, has had a conference
with Dr.. Richardson, Superintendent OF
the Government Hospital for the Insane,
in which he lntlmateu that the owners of
Wilson Park would be very glad to take
the matter up again If the Government
would consent to leave the matter of the
terms of the exchange to dlsinterested
parties.
In speaking of the matter yesterday,
Dr. Richardson said he told General
Wheeler that personally he would be very
glad to have the proposed exchange made,
but that he had authority in the mat
ter. He suggested that the only way in
which the question coulG ue opened again
would be by the withdrawal of the Randle
letter and the filing with the Interior De-
partment of an expression of Willingness
to reopen the negotiations on the part of
the owners of Wilson Park. He also sug-
gested that unless this action was taken
by tomorrow il would doubtless be too
late. II anything was to be done, DIR.
Richardson suggested it would be well for
the owners to formulate definite propO-
sltion and present it to Secretary Hitch
cock.

LIGHT For HYATTSVILLE.
City Council Directed to Approve
Frnncbise for Electric Plant.

HYATTSVILLE, Md. oct. 26.-An i'm
portant and largely attended meeting was
held in Magrudcr's Hall last night. AS
mentioned in W Wednesdays Times, the
city council desired an expression of opin-
N on the part of the citizens relative to
granting William Fryer White, of Maine;
Charles Topping, Of New York; Walsce
Donald Mclean. of Washington, and Rob
,rt W. Wells, of Hyattsville, an exclusive
franchise for twenty years for an electric
lighting and power plant. Captain Bellas
was made chairman, and h. y. Fuller sec
retary.
N. A. Dunning. President Of the Board
of Trade. read the proposed ordinance
granting the franchise, and in strong
speech advocated its favorable consider
alton as one OF the necessary steps to-
ward building up Hyattsville. jackson II.
Ralston moved that no franchise De
granted without compensation, and In
very able argument advanced the opinion
hat hyattsville could install and operate
is own electric hghting. citing many il
iustrations from the report of the Labor
commissioner. His views were seconded
N earnest addresses by T. NJ. Moran and
William Giusta, and were strongly com
bated by Messrs Emmons. Burnside.
Mr. Lyon favored granting a franchise
hat did not confer exclusive privilege.
Dr Wells offered, as a substitute to Mr.
RalstOn's motion, that the council be in
structed to grant the franchise, and this
was adopted by Il large majority The
general sentiment seemed to be that
franchises without compensation are OBJ
JCctionable. and that puDliC ownership of
street lighting is preferable; yet, with
he "a he q
works. further Indebtedness is impracti-
cable; and that the proposed ordinance,
with its liberal concessions on the part
of the electric company, afforded the best
solution of the question.
The discussion was extremely animated,
but characterized with great good nature.
Councilman Emmons declared that he in
tended to vote for the ordinance next
Tuesday evening, If everybody else in
Hyattsville opposed it.
The petitions of the Reform Repub-
lican' party, which have been circulated
for several days in this county, were filed
iast night in Upper Marlboro. The nomi-
nations thus put into the field are: Fran
els S. Carmody, of Kent District, for State

trct; Mclean Martin, of Brandywine;
