The liner, at first beyond signalling her convoy

attention to the America but after Bakey had made
two bold dashes at the line the Armada sgnalled
the mercha ntment to bear away, and determlnedly
headed up after the impudent little ship to drive her
away finally.

employed in producing beer in this
country: rice being used in place of
barley. The analysis furnished by the

that it contains II per cent of alcohol,

amount of ash. A beverage thus con-

ABOUT THE FISHER MARTEN
He is C0nceited, Cunning and Intelligent
and Without Fear.

quilts which penetrate his body. He
is not particularly fond Of meeting an
old bear with cubs, but is generally
clever enough to steal her cubs while
she goes off on some little expedition
Of her own. while instances have been
related of the fishers In the Rocky
mountains V e killing young grizzlies.
AS for man, he appears to laugh at
him and his designs for trapping wild
animals. He will pull a marten trap
open and take out the bait. whether
alive or dead; he will tear a pine mar
ten or mink to pieces in no time and
carry it off or drag the trap over some
rough projection in order to spring it
and make off more often than not
without having received as much as a
scra tch.
But perhaps his cleverest trick. when
he finds a trapper is following his
trail, is to get behind b trapper and
follow his, so that while the uncOn-
scious trapper is walking after the
fisher the fisher is keeping completely
out Of danger by following the trap
per. Many a useless mile has the
trapper walked in this manner, and
many good bats has he lost by the
very same shrewd, cunning animal he
is trying to trace and catch.-COlliers

Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1903-08-31

The fisher marten deserves to bt
much better known than he generally
q, II only on account of his own COOL
opinion of himself, his wonderful Gun
ming and shrewd intelligence.
One OF the largest and handsomest
of the martens. he has also agility,
strength and endurance for any two
of his kind put together. Measuring
about three feet In length, with a slim,
vigorous body, the fisher will travel
enOrmOu distances in a single night,
bounding lightly up into the air, with
his nose turned up in order to catch
every Whit of scent, outwitting othel
animals and the clevereSt trapperS and
making himself at home wherever he
happens to find himself.
He generally chooses as his hunting
grounds the thickly covered hills and
ridges where the hemlock and spruce
grow in abundance. but he Is as much
at home on the tree tops as on the
ground and can sleep as soundly in q
low hollow of a tree as on a branch of
a fir tree. where he will lie stretched
out iNe the sunshine like any old cat.
AS for fear. he does not know what
It is. He will not only face but ac-
tua!ly kill a Canadian pOrcupine and
does not even appear to mind the
