"And with that he proceeded to

How Goldfish Catch Lobsters.
1t is probably news to the majority
of people to know that the red, or rock,
Goldfish is a bitter enemy Of the lob
ster that has just crawled out of his
shell and is soft and unable to protect
himself. During shedding time these
Holsters crawl up under projecting
rocks, where the seaweed and kelp
are thick and where they find protect
ed places in which to go through the
process Of slipping out of their old
shells and taking on new coat Of
mail, so to speak. For some days after
shedding the Holsters are weak and
unable to cope with those fish that
+
Goldfish seem intuitiyely to know, and
they will swarm around these retreats
In great numbers and wait for the
shedders to crawl out.
| An old lobster fisherman said that
many times he had stopped his dory
over large number Of these red cod
fish and watched their operations. He
had even dropped his line down and
dangled tempting bait within few
i feet of them. Unless it happened to
fall directly in front Of their noses,
however, they would seldom take it,
as they were after lobster meat. When
the thin shelled Holsters would crawl
out from beneath the protecting sea-
weed, the Goldfish would dart at them
and strike them fierce blows with their
tails, disabling them completely. They
would then fall to and devour the help
less crustaceans. This performance,
/ the lobster fisherman said, he had wit
/ messed many times Journal.

himself open to unkind remarks by.
trying to take up a collection in his
Office. Happening to want small
coin, he turned to his fellow worker
and asked for quarter.
Haven't got it, but here's dollar"
the man replied as he tossed it over.
The editor put the dollar in his pocket
and Immediately turned to special
writer at the next desk and said:
"Miss -, could you lend me quar-
ter?' Then, seeing the man from
whom he had got the dollar grin, he
added hastily: ooh, never mind. just
got dollar from Brown
In Analysing his conduct he said
that Browns reply that he did not
have quarter was apparently the
only part of the transaction that made
any impression upon him. But he is
under suspicion in that Office and will
nrobably pever be able to live it down.

Years ago in California" said
western man, IAN acquaintance of
mine was on a StagecOach that q pair
Of bandits went through. The Ia pas
sengers We're all made to get out and
stand il row, with their hands high
over their heads. One burly rufian
stood guard over them with double
barreled shotgun, while the other en-
gagged in the pleasing task of relieving
them of their valuables and spare
cash.
"My friend was nearest the man
with the shotgun. While the ceremo-
MES were in progress his nose began to
itch, and instinctively he started to
lower one hand to scratch it. Hands
up, there! came the stern order, and
his hand went automatically back into
place. But that itching redoubled, and
again he essayed the relieveful
scratch.

ONE THOUGHT.

Though time may dig the grave Of creeds
And dogmas wither in the sod,
Ny soul will keep the thought it needs.
Its swerKeless faith in God.
No matter how the world began
Nor where the march of science goes
My trust in something more than man
Shall help me bear life's woes.

he aspres. 'sTools" may have been elected in
Iowa in the past but if the republican party is to
continue to represent Iowa. it can not be too care
full in the selection of its candidates for high of
fees. AS Mr. Perkins recently said in his own
paper, sThere is sufficient occasion in this state
why its chief officers should be mortgaged to mar
row and selfish interests" If Mr.. Perkins will
stick to that declaration, and make it good in
spirit as well in word he WILL if elected, make
governor who be ranked with Grimes, and

others who have labored faithfully though more
humbly in the affairs of the state. Cedar Rapids

MR.. FUNK IN HIS OWN BEHALF.

oplrll Lake Beacon: some papers and persons
have been so kind and generous as to indorse A.
B. Funk for the republican nomination to the gov
ernorship and many have used his name in CON
necton with political discussion of the season It
was supposed that all talk of this kind had been
dropped but this week it has been variously sur
missed that ambition in this quarter is under such
imperfect control as to make imminent break for
the political course and dash with the candidates
at almost any time. 1t has for months been with
in the knowledge of friends that this alleged aspir-
ant has had no thought of being candidate for
anything this year There has never been an hour
in which he could consistently have considered
such proposition for private reasons; and, moae-
over, there season IN which he had HIS
ambition under better subsection than in this Year
of grace. All the same however, the kindly words
of the home people, district people and others who
have manifest confidence and friendship in this
connection among the valued treasures of al
busy life.

While Judge Church has not yet announced
himself a candidate for the supreme judgeship, it
is we'll understood among his friends that he will
be candidate at the coming state convention
Judge Church has made enviable record since
he went on the bench and would make an equally
good record on the supreme bench. He made a
fine showing for the place last fall but was beaten
mainly because his congressional district was di-
vided. This year they united. The district
has never had supreme judgeship and this makes
them all the more determined There is no doubt
that Ida and Sac counties will also be solidly with
the tenth district in demanding his nomination.

Congressman and senator's will now be kept busy
studying up the Cuban question. President Nc
kinley will call extra session Immediately after
he receives the Cuban constitution and congress
will therefore have to consider the question at an
early date. The convention which has been draft
ing this constitution has about completed its labors
unless the unforeseen happens, Therefore Cuba
will occupy a front seat during the spring months.
There probably number of congressman who
will want to brush up little this subject before
session is called.

a State Eair.

The Florida press is agitating The
question of a state fair TO be held in
Florida some time in the near future.
We think the suggestion a wise one,
and should meet with a ready re-
spouse from every FlOridian. The
advertisement it would give to Flor
ida products, and the land on which
these agricultural products were
raised, would more than compensate
for the expense of state fair. In
the second place the farming element
would be wonderfully stimulated, for
we entertain grave doubts as to
whether the majority of our farmers
really know the extraordinary re-
sources of their own state. Some
think oranges, pineapples and vege-
tables are the only resources of rev.
enue, in an agricultural sense, and it
is well that they should be made TO
realize that these are ouly a fractional
part Of FlOrida's products. Every
thing would receive a great up~lift,
and renewed hope would be inspired
in every industrial department. But
if we have the fair let it be no half
way or shoddy exhibition. Florida,
though young, is in many respects the
foremost state Of the South, and an
exposition of her resources should be
commensurate with the dignity, in
telligence and thrift of our common
wealth. The tobacco industry has
grown to such proportions that Flor
ida is now being recognized as to-
baccO state, and the fair would have
tendency to develop that particular
industry to a remarkable degree.
Then there Is the phosphate indus
try, which has enriched, and is now
enriching, certain portions of the
state, and what better way could this
vast business be advertised than by
exhibiting at q state fair? But time
would fail US, and space would not
permit our going INTO details, and de-
scribing the hundred and one other
industries, such as fruit growing, the
cultivation of cassava and vegetables
of every description, the fish and cat
tie industries, etc, bat every man in
Florida who can read and many who
can not, know that these are all mere,

Special Meetings.

For the past week DR.. Z. P. Will
Hanson, of Atlanta, Ga, has been
preaching ia Ocala at the Christian
church. He is an able exponent of
the Bible, and long experience as a
teacher and minister has eminently
fitted him for the important position
of a leader in religious thought. I'm
der his treatment the intricate pass
ages are illustrated and taught with
such clearness and ease that one Is
surprised that he had not seen its truth
and beauty before. His visit to our
city will certainly bring an upiift to
those who were fortunate enough to
hear his sermons and series Of Bible
studies.
\ special feature of the meetings
was the afternoon Bible readings and
devotional servsies.
We regret that his stay was neces-
sarily so short. He returns to Atlanta
Friday, and on March first goes 10
Richmond, Va. TO begin his work as
president OF college, which he ex-
poets to give the remainder Of his life.

Major Burford Gets the Brush.

NJ. Douald +. McIver and Mr.. J. l..
Smoak got up a fox hunt in Major
Burford's honor last Saturday night
and the major is now carrying the
brush of the feet-footed reynard as a
result of the nights sport.
The major is gallant veteran OF
the Mexican war, yet he kept at the
heels of the hounds to the death as
actively as the younger members of
the party.
The night was a beautiful one and
the major says he never enjoyed a
hunt more in Tennessee, where he
formerly kept a pack of hounds for
the purpose.
Fox hunting is now, and has al
WAYS been, regarded as fine sport, and
should attract visitors to Florida more
than golf playing or quail shooting.

John \. s,ellon, of the Tampa Tri-
bune staff, died in that city Of con-
sumption last Saturday morning.

years ago and settled in this city.

real estate business with Mr.. j. t.
Lancaster, and afterwards became ed

quently of the Evening Star.
About three years ago he left this

his confinement he continued to edit
his paper, and never lost a moment
from the fight he had begun.
Mr.. Mellon was a consistent MEM

funeral occurred from the First Bap-
fist church Sunday afternoon at 3
o'clock, aud was largely attended by
his numerous friends in that city.
