Totems and Mascottes.

The totems cherished by some OF the
Indian tribes suggest the French mas
cote. A totem" Is the generic word
for class Of material objects which
a savage regards with superstitious
awe, under the belief that between him
and every member Of the class there
exists an intimate relation. The to-
TEN may be a wolf, beaver, a buffa-
10, salmon, a snake, the wind, birch
bark, the leaves of trees, the sun or
the snow. But whatever 1t happens to
be, the connection between 1t and its
protege is mutually beneficial. The to.
TEN protects the man, and the man
testifles his esteem for his protection

THE BIG FISH THAT HE LOST.
A California Fisherman Declares 1t
Was n Giant Striped Bass.

n ZIMMERMAN hectares
Was n Giant Striped Bass.
John George, a fisherman OF Point
San Quentin, Cal, was given a battle
for his life the other day by giant
fish, which he declared was a striped
bass. The fish overturned his boat and
George would have been drowned had
not help arrived.
George dragged his net for bass near
San Quentin point on recent morn
Ing When he commenced to haul his
catch aboard his heavy salmon boat he
found that he had captured n giant
bass. For more than an hour he club
bed and gated the monster, and at last
succeeded In getting rope through its
gills. He then started to row his catch
to the wharf.
After he had gone short distance
the fish revived and In Its desperate
efforts to free itself the boat was over
turned and Its occupant thrown Into
the water. Charles Allison, the agent
at San Quentin, saw the fisherman's
peril and procuring boat went to the
rescue. George and Allison made every
effort to right the formers boat or tow
1t ashore, but owing to the current they
failed. and at last were compelled to
cut the fioundering fish loose In order
to save the boat and nets.
George, who is one of the best-known
fishermen ON the bay, says the San
Francisco Call, insists that the i'm
mense fish was striped bass.

Of age he opened a store of his own at
Oneida, n. Y, and conducted 1t for two
years. He afterward spent one year at
Lockport, N. Y, and then removed to
Chicago, where he established dry goods
firm.
This firm afterward became Field, Pal
mer & Letter. Of which the other members
were Marshall Field and Levi z. Letter,
Of Marshall Field & Co. The sharp ad-
vance in the price of goods after the be-
ginning of the civil war found the firm
prepared with a large stock, and it reaped
immense gains from every advance.
Mr.. Palmer retired from mercantile life
in 1865, and SO liberal had been his policy
in meeting public requirements during the
war that the government was indebted to
him to the extent Of three-Quarters of a
million dollars. After disposing of his dry
goods interests Mr. Palmer invested largely
in Chicago real estate and began the erec-
tion of business buildings.
When the fire came in 1871 he owned
thirty-two old structures on State street,
every one of which was destroyed. His
losses were very heavy. but his faith in
Chicago was mistaken, and he borrowed
enough money to enable him to reconstruct
the buildings that had been destroyed.
He had already begun the erection of the
Palmer House Hotel, and as soon as possi-
BILE after the fire the work on this building
was resumed. 1t was completed at cost
Of $2,0O0,000, the result being the hand
soonest and most substantial hotel in the
country at that time. His real estate hold
ings continued to increase in value until
today his fortune is estimated at $2J 900 O0O
In politics Mr.. Palmer was democrat
Only year before the fire Mr.. Palmer
married the woman who has become well
tha Honore, daughter of H. III. Honore.
Mr.. Honore went to Chicago from Louis
vile, and his daughter had all the beauty
for which Kentucky women are famous.
