FUN IN FLORIDA WATERS.
Alfred HarmswOrth's Fight with n
Monster POrpOise.
From the New York World.

From the New York World.
Fort Myers, Fla, March ga fishing
schooner that came up the river reports
having spoken Alfred Harmsworth and
his party cruising in the waters about
Boca Grande. He has two small schoon-
ers and a steamer to tow them when
wind power will not avail. He reports
plenty of good fishing, with various adj
ventures with sharks and other large
game"
One of the most exciting contests was
with a huge porpoise that he harpooned
the other day While cruising toward the
deep water Mr. Harmsworth, who was
on the forward deck of the steamer Belle
of Fort Myers, saw a school of por-
poses. Among them he noticed one enor-
NOUS fellow and he told the pilot to steer
toward them.
When in the midst of the school the
big fellow came close to the boat. Mr..
Harmsworth was armed with sharp
harpoon and stood near the bow. Watch
ing his opportunity. he hurled the weap-
on with force, sending 1t into the back of
the porpoise up TO the hilt
In an instant the fish started off with
flying leaps, the line attached to the har-
pooh running out with frightful rapid
ity. When it's length was reached the
FISH was thrown back half out of the
water, while the shock on the boat near
ly threw Mr.. Harmsworth down.
Full speed astern," was the order
given. The big fish soon recovered and
attempted to start off again. 1t was
novel and interesting tug of war, fish
against steam. For fun three minutes
the tension was even and then the fish
prevailed, and he began to pull the boat
against its full steam power.
He ran off seward for several miles
and then doubled. He circled around the
boat, ran off sideways and tried various
tricks to get rid of the cruel prones in
his back, but in vain. He pulled the boat
about without trouble and sem d tire
less For over three hours was this
struggle waged.
Finally the fish gave in and the boat
began to tow in toward shore. Two Of
its companions that had rema ned closely
by its side all through the struggle now
left 1t.
When close to the beach another flu
rious struggle was begun which lasted
nearly an hour. Finally by tackles
placed on shore the big fellow was hau'ed
high and dry. when its struggles ceased.
1t was cut up, and some OF the natives
will boil it down. From calcu' ations node
Mr.. Harmsworth estimated that it weigh
cd about 100 pounds.
He and his party are having a royal
time and his health Is excellent. He told
the fishermen that the Florida waters
We're the sportsmen's paradise and that
the fishing here beat anything he ever
saw for variety and excitement
Last week they caught a big shark
after fighting It for an hour. 1t had
followed the schooner for hours and the
ladies' were rather frightened at its per-
sistence, hense its capture was decided

HEART DISEASE.
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid In
crease of Heart Trouble.

Heart trouble, at least among the
Americans is certainly increasing and
v lille this may be largely due TO the ex-
element and worry of American business
life it is more often the result of weak
stomachs, of poor digestion,
Real organic disease is incurable; but
not one case in a hundred of heart trou-
BILE Is organic
The close relation between heart trou-
BILE and poor digestion is because both
organs are controlled by the same great
nerves, the Sympathetic and Pneumogas-
tric.
In another way, also the heart is af-
iected by the form of poor digestion,
which causes gas and fermentation from
nat digested food. There is a feeling Of
oppression and heaviness in the chest
caused by pressure of the distended stom-
ach on the heart and lungs interfering
WIN their action; hence arises palpita-
uon and short breath.
Foor digestion also poisons the blood,
making It thin and watery, which irri-
ldles and weakeus the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
trouble is 70 improve the digestion and
'l insure the prompt assimilation of food.
This can be done by the regular use
N' Htdls OF some safei pleasant ana
'"' ctYe digestive preparation, like Stu
