PINE LAKE.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
LAPORTE, Ind, Aug. S.-Although the
Pine LAX Chautauqua Assembly is at an
end, the attendance at the Pine Lake resort
cannot be said to have diminished, as all
the cottages are filled, the hotel is doing
a big business and the tents are occupied.
The lake was never more beautiful than
it is this year, while the sunsets, as viewed
from the east shore, are enough to make
an artist rave. At night the moonlight on
the water has made it appear like a sea
of silver.
Boating parties in the evening have been
the fad this week. The water has been a
little chilly one or two days, but otherwise
it has been most delightful and has tempted
hundreds of bathers daily. Sailing is an
other one of the alluring pastimes of the
resorters, there being now nearly a dozen
sailing craft of various kinds on the lake.
Two launches were added to the fleet of
engine-driver craft this week. Emmett Scott
having had his boat overhauled and put in
commission, and Axel Lindgreen having
himself and friends. A. S. Orr has the
speed of the fleet, although Leroy Bosser-
man. and Z. E. Weir are able to give him
a pretty good chase at times.
Inc OudltSDuIy summer SC1OO1, WHICH
holds its sessions here, opened this week.
Miss Alice May Youse, Of Baltimore, is the
principal.
The grocers and butchers of Laporte
county will picnic next Wednesday at the
Pine a grove. Tomorrow a special train
from Indiana Harbor will bring 1000 fremen
and their families and friends. The party
will spend the day at the Pine Lake grove.
Rev. E. III. Emmett, pastor of the Baptist
Church at Elkhart, is the champion fisher
man. Yesterday he brought in a large
string OF very fine bass, caught in Pine

The two-year-old son of Prof. and Mrs.

ROME CITY, Ind, Aug. S.-Next Thurs
day, Aug. Is, the twenty-ffth annual ses-
sion of the Island Park Assembly will
close. The programme as outlined by the
board of directors. has been filed exactly
as advertised in every particular. There
were contracts made for no attractions to
appear during the twenty-three days Of
the session and, contrary to the experience
of other assemblies, each and every one,
up to the present time, has filled the en-
gagement on time and nobody has been dis
appointed. The last day will be devoted
to the Grand Army of the Republic, when
an opportunity will be given for comrades
OF the Mexican, civil and Spanish-Amer-
lean wars to meet each other and discuss
personal "reminiscences. Several excursions
promise a great crowd
One of the sights at this place is the old
fish ladder erected at the 'tumbles" by the
railroad company. as required by the stat

has the appearance of a covered fiume, four
feet WIDE, two feet deep and $50 feet long,
extending at an incline of about fifteen de-
the lake down through the heavy
timbers forming the headgates, TO
the bed of the river. Inside there are par
titions two feet distant from each other

openings at the alternating ends, causing

ner. 1t is supposed that the Zigzag course
of the water enables fish to ascend during
the migratory season. In a small lake at
the bottom Of the ladder there are large
quantities of carp. bass, pickerel and blue
gills-in such abundance that IL is evident
they have not yet attempted TO climb the
ladder. Whether or not any fish make the
ascent is a question upon which there is
much doubt. y
AN IDYL OF THE LAKE.
They stood against the west rail- of the
south bridge fishing. One possessed golden
locks and the other had hair of a raven hue.
Both wore high straw hats with the broad
brims pulled down over their ears and held
in place by ribbons tied under a pair of
dimpled chins. 1t was in the afternoon.
while the rays of the sun slanting. from
the sky, spread over the ripples of the
water ard. rejecting as from a mirror,
kissed the fair creatures fishing from the
bridge. A young man approached and
stopped a moment pretending 10 watch
the bobbers for n nibble. but really TO adj
mire the sleeveless girls kissed by the rays
of the sun. The one with the golden locks
pulled up her line.

Christmas with you"
The girl was SO sure that her grand.
father was glad to see her that he could
not tell her she was unwelcome. An hour
later they sat Mt dinner. The old man
looked across to where the girls golden
head cleaned in the lamp.
She chatted gnyly. When they rose
from the table she went with him to the
study. Sitting on a stool, she told him of
her school life.
IL am happy there, grandpa. but I will
be glad when school Is finished. Then
can keep house for you. 1t has been SO
Kind In you to do without me 80 could

He made no response. They parted
without the words being said that would
send Florence back to school. Mr.. Bent.
ley resolved to say them at breakfast the
next morning. There he found himself
confronted by that smiling face, and was
obliged 10 hold his peace.
Florence stayed. Simpson. the maid,
and the man all delighted to serve her.
A few simple changes were made In the
dreary old house. Mr.. Bentley chose
some new furniture. He ordered that
good fires should be kept up and bade
Simpson see that the table was well
spread.
Gilbert Bentley was powerless. Flor
cnce would think the best Of him. She
would think that ne loved her and was
glad to have her there. She would be-
lleve that he shared her own love for hu.
manity and her reverent trust In God.
She went with him to the mill and
through the villase. There her mistaken
idea Of his character showed In a strons
light. Many If his workmen were living
In poverty. She knew he was doing nll
he could for them, but was there not
rome way she could help? What was he

The old mans face s0ftened. He sat

The frOwn on his brow deepened. He
leaned back. staring from window. He
could see the long. low buildings of the
Bentley Lumber Company. In the back
ground was the leafess forest. The sun
was setting and the sky, above the tree
tops. was tinged with rosy glow.
Gilbert Bentley had spent ten years
In that numbering village. In that time
he had doubled his capital. Now. owing
TO n general depression, his profits were
small. To continue his business through,
the winter would mean very little profit,
nut doubtless the spring would bring n
change. Well, he would not wait for
spring.

The door hell rang and there was the
