The latest fish story that has been
brought in from Cobbosseecontee tells
of the way in which one of Augustus
well known enthusiasts in matters
piscatorial. recently fooled some of the
black bass that swarm the waters of
the lake. and through persistence and
luck succeeded in landing all that the
fish laws of the State would allow him
to take at one time. 1t is a well
known fact that the black bass is pos
scSScd Of one of the most uncertain ap-
petit"S in the matter of taste of all the
tinny tribes. and that a bait at which
he will jump, one day. will not arouse
even wiggle of his tail the next. and
II was only because the gentleman re-
fcrrcd to had a book tuli Of all the diff
ferent kinds of flies known to the trade
that he succeeded in landing "A fish.
According to the story he tells of his
achievement, he was sitting on the
piazza OF his cottage one morning, re-
Gently. and noticed some fish jumping.
The water was enjoying one of those
calm spells that are sometimes encoun-
tered at CobbosseecOntee, and the man
thought that he would go out in his
Dbdt, anu get Few 0Sn lot uilll'I'
This was not. however, so easy as he
had anticipated. for when he ap-
preached the place where the fish were,
they vanished, to reappear further
down the lake. This vent on for some
time and then he conceived the idea
of following them by backing his boat
toward them stern first. which proved
successful. He could GIT near enough
for cast. but the flies did not seem to
suit the bass. and he could not get 4
rise. He could see the big fellows
sporting in the water but though he
-ried about every fly in his book. not
fish rose to them. Finally. as last re-
sort, he put on a silver doctor and
Parmachenee belle and that did the
business The two lies had no sooner
struck the water than there was a rush
and each was taken by bass. Ther'
was something doing after that, and 70
use the words of the fisherman.
never had such a time in my life az
I did for the next hour. And 1t was
those two flies that did IT,"

arranged programme. number OF spe-
cial featureswhich appealed approvlngiy
to everyone in the crowded house. The
grand entry was received with enthusl-
asn1, as were each number to the end or
grand finale. The entertainment was
creditable in its every detail and the un-
stinte,1 encomiums of the spectators
were fully deserved by everyone in the
play. However, special mention is due

THE POOL ROOM CASE.

The decision of Judge Bell being ad-
verse to the defendants in the Pool Room
case was a surprise to the fraternity
who have delighted in betting ON horses
unseen and invisible from their point
of view.
Judge Bells opinion, in sustaining the
Hunsicker anti-poolroorn law, was a
rude shock to the class who have been
declaring it to be unconstitutional.
However, this question will be deter
mined by the Supreme Court of Louisi-
ana, should it be appealed to that tribu
nal
Two CT the ab!cst CT the profession in
Louisiana, Messrs. Alexander and Will
kinson. represent A. E. Maloney & Co.
of the Pelican Telegraph Company, who
as they have admitted simply transmit
to the betting point the kilograms
and recording the wagers, for which they
charge a commission
The city was represented by Hon. K.
G.. Pleasant. city attorney.
The defendants do not pretend to keep
pool room; they claim that the results
OF the races as received and posted is
fir the gratuitus information of the pub
lie if interested. They also claim that
they are only engaged in strictly COM
mission business. However, Judge Bell
has not been 1nisIed, at least if he has
erred it has been OH the side of good
morals. He will receive the generous
approval of the great majority of the
people who are opposed to pool roonls,
Eng q ike end in the aim of results and
being simply distinction without diff
ference. In substance the only direct
issue against the defendants is that
they do not do anything more than to
telegraph offers of bets to- points out
side of the state and give the results OF
the races on which these bets are predi-
Gated. Should the case be appealed, we
do not believe the Supreme Court will
delye into the roots and the ramifica-
tons of the words Pool-Room. For all
practical purposes pool room is place
where men congregate to gamble, es-
pecially II horses unseen by the players,
and the Hunsicker bill was enacted for
the suppression OF such an evil How
ever, te final result of this proceedings
will be awaited with general interest.
