Latest Literary Notice.

The sale of thousands of copies
of q ten.cent magazine at one
dollar apiece was q very curious
happening at the time of the
Chicago Worlds Fair. The Cos.
mopolitan prepared a Worlds
Fair number, contributed to by
many famous writer's. aud so
thoroughly illustrated that it sur
passed even the most expensive
book which had up to that time
been issued. In those days the
magazine was printed from two
sets of plates only, and when
these were worn out it was imp0s.
ible, without great loss of time,
to put further editions on the
press. The newsdealers, taking
advantage of this condition, rails
ed this price of The Cosmopoli
tan's Worlds Fair number to one
dollar a copy. A few sales we're
even made toward the close al
the phenomenal figure of Ave dol
lors. Undoubtedly this happen.
ing is unique in the history Of
magazine literature. The Cosmo
politan will endeavor to repeat
it's past success with a Pan. Amer.
lean Exposition number, which
will be even more attractive, il
possible, than the Worlds Fail
predecessor.
The most famous writer's of the
country have been invited to take
part in the preparation of this is
sue. After many days careful
study Of all the wonderful scenes
of the Exposition. more than a
hundred photographs have beer
prepared, which, taken as a whole
give a thorough conception of thu
marvels of this Exposition.
1t is doubtful if any book, sell
ing at forty times the price of the
magazine, will give any descrip
ton of the Fair which will ap
proach in interest and artistic
value the September CosmOpoli

preserve this number as a de-
lightful reference book in the
years to come, and those who ar

Chapter Three on Fed.

Our venerable w0odsman friend,
Fed Brady, who has been intro.
duced to the readers of the Cou.
rier in our former letters, one day |
several years ago, gave us an ac-
connt OF his attempt, in the early |
days of our country, to take a huge
fish from Horse creek. 1t was of
the species known as hogsucker,
with which we are all more or less
familiar. Fed said, one afternoon
many years ago, he put on pair
of very heavy brogans with thick
half soles on the outside, and set
out with his gun for hunt up
Horse creek. That while walking
along a high steep bank which
overhung the stream a. that point
he beheld, lying in the limpid
depths of that beautiful stream,
hogsucker, that must have meas
ured 40 inches in length and large
in proportion. Fed fired the or.
binary load out of his gun into the
air and poured into it q handful of
powder and rammed down good
and strong a sharp ball. He was
considerably excited at the great
size of the fish and by his antici-
patton of carrying it home. He
walked out on hornbeam, which
grew almost horizontally and con-
veniently cut over the water. He
balanced himself carefully on the
little tree, aimed at the enormous
fish, which was directly beneath
him and fred. Fed said he never
learned what became of that fish,
but he remembers well, that he
was several minutes walking out
Of the heavy shower produced by
: the water thrown up by the ex.
} traordinary force of the bullet.
He had not walked far, when his
right foot began to hurt him so
much. that he took off his shoe,
r and found ON the bottom of his
) foot a blister as large as a goose
: egg. 1t was caused, he said, by q
drop of water splashed from the
creek against his double shoe sole
by the bullet with such remarka.
, BILE force as to raise a blister. He
. was laid up a full week by this
! mishap, and he has wondered ev
er since, what became of this YER
table king of all hogsuckers.

she PORTS OF ENTRY

WASHINGTON, D. c., January IS.
Congress yesterday passed the first bill
of the session which will affect the Ha-
waiian Islands in it's operation. This
was the bill to provide for the creation
of new supports of entry at the discre-
ton of the Secretary of thebTreasury.
The bill was introduced by Senator
Frye in the Senate and was reported
from the Commerce Committee, Of
which he is chairman, at once.
1t was put on the calendar of the Up
per House, and under a suspension of
the rules, it was passed without object
ton during the first hour OF the session,
The bill was drawn by William Hay.
wood, and has for it's object the placing
OF aids to the commerce at the COM
mand of the business community. I'm
der its provisions the Secretary of the
the Treasury, whenever he sees fit,
may declare any landing in the islands
a SUPPORT, for the transaction of bust
ness of the Custom Department. This
will permit the designation of such
places in Kauai and on windward Ha-
wall as ne sees fit as ports.
Further than this 1t means that
should the usefulness of a SUPPORT be
passed there will not be any action OF
Congress necessary to change the To-
cation OF the port but this may be
| dove by the Secretary directly.
Another bill was introduced in the
Senate, by Senator Perkins of Califor-
mia, for the purpose of granting to the
ports of Honolulu and Hilo the rights
of immediate transportation, and has
passed the upper body and is now in
the hands of the House. 1t will be
taken up by the Committee on Com
merce at once and will be pushed.

FOR A CABLE.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 1S.-Once
more there will be made a determined
effort to have the bill for the construc-
ton of Pacific cable placed before the
House and with good prospects. Dele
gate Wilcox began a canvas of the
members of the California delegation
yesterday with hopes of enlisting their
sympathy and aid. He was successful
to the last degree, and at once arrang-
ed for a hearing of the combined dele
cations with the Speaker.
There are enough votes ready to pass
the bill should it ever get before the
House, but the reluctance OF the con-
trolling spirits has thus far been the
stumbling block, There is little real OBJ
lection to the bill, but there has been
some feeling against the expense which
this measure will entail at this time.
The strength of the Pacific Coast dele
cations will be put behind the measure,
and it seems that there will be a mate
rial accretion of strength when the full
force of the Westerners is in working
order. gsr
