With a party of friends he was out
for bass. Something heavy struck Mr..
Launey's line. He began hauling in,
hand over hand. 1t was hard pull.
sEIis companions were sure the thing
on the hook was either bass or a
drum. He was encouraged to hustle.
Finally the thing" tapped over the
side of the boat. 1t proved to be a
monster channel catfish. six inches he
tween the eyes. And the first thing the
"cat"did was to horn" Mr.. Launey
in the leg. Almost at the same time
Mr.. Jones made a grab at the mon
ster, and got the hook through the
first joint of his fore-finger. Then
there was trouble. The hook was cut
out of Mr.. Jones' finger finally, and
he tainted; then Mr.. Launey keeled
over from the exquisite pain of the cat
fish sting in his leg. That left Andy
Kelly, a novice at rowing, to pull the
boat ashore. But he got it ashore aft
er hard work, and all hands of the
crew were saved. Mr.. Launey says
that, unto, this day, he feels the effects
of that catfish sting, though it occur
red several years ago.

Presently something struck his hook,

sang as it paved out, but at length it
slackened and The began Keeling in.
After about thirty minutes of alter
nate fighting and playing the thing"
was brought up to the gunwale. 1t
was a man-eater shark, not less than
six feet long. AS it was reeled up to
the boats side, it came with open
mouth, jaws distended to the limit and
wicked little eyes flashing. Fincken
gave one glance at his catch, threw
his tackle overheard, chopped the an
Choir rope with a Ratchet and rowed
sixty strokes to the minute for two
miles until he had reached the beach
at Estill Station, where he fell ex-
hausted in the bottom of the boat. He
affirms that the sharks mouth looked
bigger than the door of the market,
and that it's teeth were as long as
his forearm.

foi a "rapid-ire" lunch counter that
has been evolved in the brain of a
man in this city. Utilizing the princi-
pal of the merry-go-round and moving
pavement, he has conceived the idea
of a moving lunch counter, of which
he has constructed a model. The coun-
ter is elliptical in form and construct
ed on a platform of the same shape,
which is to be kept constantly swing
ing around like a carrousel. At in
tervals on the platform around the
counter are stools. Just outside the
moving platform and alongside of the
ellipse is a stationary counter on
which are arranged pies. cakes, sand
witches and other 'hurry-up dishes.
Customers mount the movable plat
form and take their places on the
stools. They swing round the ellipse

err help themselves to pie, cake or
wEat-not. AT the end Of the ellipse is
a cashier, who can see what they have
taken in passing. From the time a
customer passes the cashier with a
fresh supply of lunch until he swings
round back to the cashier five min
utes will have elapsed, and in that
time he is supposed to have devoured
his lunch. If he is too slow he may
make another turn.-Philadelphia Rec

to have a visitor at Woburn abbey

have it, she got Lord Stanhope, the
historian. who. though he had to take

dinner he began the dreaded Inquiries
about the late Of the abbey. The poor
duchess, much frustrated said:

historical things, but / viii tell you all

who, finding himself in great danger
