Better than . Hairp,n.

Speaking of printers and the
simple but useful tools with
which they work, an old printer
who dropped in on us said: 1T
makes me tired to read all this
stuff about the hairpin being such
q wonderful tool" he growled.
"The hairpin amt in it with the
old composing rule. I've used this
old rule as q knife. can opener, a
toothpick. a paper cutter, screw
driver, chisel, q corkscrew, a
manicure set, nut pick, a wire
cutter, an ice pick, a stovelid lift
er and q window fastener. i use it
to clean the bowl of my pipe, have
fastened my suspenders with it,
hooked it for bromo seltzar, used
it to work my way on freight trains;
it makes good straight-edge,
comes in handy to scale fish, and
if had to l believe | could make
it do the duty of a collar buttor.
As a handy tool the hairpin ain't
in the same class with the printer S
rule"

of the river it would rise to a
height of 112 feet instead of II
feet, as last year. Consequently
the rise of 1902 as compared with
that of 1903 is as II to l12. The
ordinary width of the river chan
mel is about 500 feet. This year the
food is 2s miles wide, or Z times
as wide as the river is ordinarily.
At a very conservative estimate
the water averaged S feet in depth
over this p miles which would
make seventeen rivers the width of
the Kaw and five feet deep. If
these we're piled up on the 27 feet
of water in the channel of the riv-
er they would make a river the or
dinary width of the Kaw and 112
feet deep. If the state house had
been in it's path it would have SUBJ
merged all wings and only the
dome would have been above
water.

Nearly Seven Times Greater.

The Topeka Stat, journal
makes the following comparison
b ,tween the flood of this year and
lust, which enables one to under
stand the enormity of the calami-
ty which has bel .llen Topeka and
the bottoms of the Kaw river:
When one speaks of the rise of
27 feet in the Kaw this year and
and compares it with the IL foot
rise a year ago, it does not mean
anything. This year it is spread
out four miles, while then it was
nearly confined to the bed of the
channel. There is about seven
times the volume of water this
year that there was last year, If
the water which has been going
down the Kaw valley this week

VIII Vote on Incorporating.

The citizens meeting Wednesday
night, which was called for the
purpose of taking preliminary
steps toward incorporating Holly,
was presided over by S. F. White,
the chairman. Mr.. White made
a talk explaining the situation and
presenting the plat which had
been prepared by John Duncan.
William Gill moved that the
plat be adopted which was second
by P. w. Petersen. The motion
carried almost unanimously.
The petition was then read by
the chairman who requested those
present to sign it. Forty-four
electors signed the petition after
which the meeting adjourned.
The petition will be presented
Immediately to the county Judge
who will appoint FIVE commission
ers from among the petitioners
whose duty it will be to call an
election, by publication for three
week, for the purpose of voting
upon the question of incorporat,
ing. These commissioners will
act as judges of the election and if
majority vote for incorporation
then it will be their duty to i'm.

tarpon this is the chief cause for the
presence of the element of uncertain
ty, but there are many others. The
risk of the line breaking under the
great strain which must of necessity be
put upon It is greater than in most
other forms of fishing, becausel not
only is it finer in comparison with the
weight of the fish, but the salt water
and the hot sun act injuriously on the
best of lines. Sharks, too, are apt to
rob you of your prize in the very mo-
ment Of victory. In the Boca Grande
Pass, off Florida, they abound natur-
ally, and the capture of tarpon also
attracts them. They lie in wait for
the fish, and when it is nearly tx
hausted will attack it, and one bite of
a large shark will cut the fish in two.
The presence of large numbers of
sharks in time drive away the tar
pom, and places once f~requented by
them in large numbers gradually be-
come deserted.
There is another attraction about
the tarpon which lies in the fact that
he shows himself, and shows himself
with no little violence, and a fish that
jumps is always more exciting than
n that does not. There are-few finer
sights in angling than the first mad
leaps of the tarpon; like a bar of bur-
nished silver, whence he gets his name
of Silver King, he filings himself high
into the air, and with vigorous shakes
of his great head tries to cast away
the restraining hook, which he too
often succeeds in doing. -,
When a tarpon jumps you must hold
on to him, and not lower the rod or
slack the line, as is the case in salmon
fishing, the reason being that unless
the strain on the line is kept up, the
hook will lose it's hold, which, as a rule,
is not a very secure one. Indeed, so
hard and So well protected by bony
layers is the tarpon's mouth that for
some time it was considered impene-
trable to the hook, and it was not un-
til the proper tackle and hooks had
been invented that any success attend
ed the efforts to land the fish, unless he
had swallowed the bait well down, in
which case a firm hold could be OBJ
tanned in a softer portion of his anat-
omy.
But still-ishing for tarpon has to a
great extent died out. I have never
practiced it myself, but from all ac-
counts it was not a very ex%hilarating
pastime, and it was always full of dis
appointments. The plan was to moor
the boat in some likely spot and cast
the bait out some distance from you
and let it lie on the bottom. When the
Inns began to move, it was paid out,
or allowed to run out from coils at the

largely supplement the grain-produc.
lug area OF the North American Con-
tlnent, and the response has been
most liberal.
Durlng the year 1901 upwards of
So'ooo from the United States went
over to Canada, being induced to set
tie there by the reports that reached
them OF the success of those who had
preceded them during the previous
years. This 10000 was increased to
$1,000 during the year 1902, and it is
Iully expected that there will be fully
oo'ooo during the present year. The
work OF the immigration branch of the
ECanaolan Government is not now be-
ing directed towards giving informa-
tlon as to the advantages of settle
ment in Canada as it is to extending an
invitation to the American to follow
those. who have gone.
Those who have charge of the work
point with considerable pride to the
success of those who have been in
duced to take advantage of the offer
OF 100 acres of land free in Canada, and
have no cause to hesitate in continuing
n invitation. Many of those interest
ed say there are no more free home
steads to be had in Canada, but the
writer has most positive assurance
from the Canadian Government that
there are thousands of such home
steads to be had, aud in one of the dis
tricts now being opened up fully as
good as the best, and it is probably the
best.

Grand Forks, N. Dakota, and Great
Falls, Montana, and the suggestion is
made that by addressing any of these
who are the authorized agents of the
Government, it will be to the advantage
of the reader, who will be given the
fullest and most authentic informa.
ton regarding the results of mixed
farming, dairying, ranching, and grain

bottom of the boat, so that the fish
should have time to swallow the bait
before he was struck. The advan-
tage of this system consists in the fact
that when hooked the fish has much
less chance of getting off, but the dis
appointments are innumerable, as the
waits are long and dreary, and when
the line moves at last it is very often
not the work of the lordly tarpon, but
of some small shark, catfish, crab, or
other insignificant robber of the sea.
In pass-fshing, where the boats are
not too numerous, there is opportu-
nifty for movement as well as for the
exercise of a greater amount of skill
in the change of bait, in working it,
in finding by experience the best depth
at which to fish on different days, and
in the mouth will give much more sport
in the sea than q. fish hooked in some
more vital place, will do in fresh water
where still-fishingusedto be carriedon,
and he will be more difficult to land, as,
the hold being less secure, any slack
ness in the line is usually punished by
the escape of the fish.
The attraction of tarpon fishing lies
primarily in the great struggle with
the big fish, and to prepare for this
struggle it is as we'll, if possible, to
exercise those muscles which will be
called into play before engaging the
fish himself. The first tarpon will
probably u more exhaustion than
a dozen or more caught in a single day
when the muscles required have be-
come hardened and skill has been
added by experience.
Although another and still larger
fish, the so-called flying tuna, can be
caught off Santa Catalina, on the coast
of California, it is doubtful whether it
shows such sport as the great game
fish of the Gulf Of Mexico. Its nature
