Some readers will remember the spir-
tied account given by Scott in Guy
Mannering" of the form of salmon fish
ing that used to be known as burning
the water" 1t was favorite amuse-
ment in England, Scotland and Wales.
The practice is no longer legal and can
be INDUCED in only at the risk of pen
alties, with the disgrace which at
taches to things denounced as IN
sportsmanlilie. Torches were used, and
the salmon were speared by the thrust
of a weapon having barbed prongs,
called a lester. Scott again may be
quoted for his description of the spear
ing of salmon from horseback in the
Solway. The Tweed, which was the
river Of his lifelong affections, was
one of the worst sufferers from burn
ing the water" in the days when it
was permitted, and it was computed
that thousands of salmon were annual
ly taken by this form Of capture. The
water may be burned even now here
and there, and in Wales few years
ago there was q short lived revival of
the practice.

He could break by contracting his veins

forearm. One day, being in a house
with some pupils of Pythagoras, the
ceiling threatened to fall in, but Milo
supported the column on which it rest

tried to tear asunder the trunk of Il

them, he persisted, devoured by wild
