the peg down fishing match in the
Kansas avenue ponds left in the "holy
pavement" by last nights rain,
For half an hour or more at noon
these fishermen, armed with long
bamboo poles on which were attached
lines and very red "bobbers,' fished
to their hearts content and to the
amusement of hundreds who passed
by at the noon hour.
Officer Walker called Officer Miller
into the alley to hold a consultation.
Is hshin' allowed on Kansas ave-
nue?' asked Walker.
81 don't know whether it is allowed
or not but it seems to be possible"
replied Miller as he peeked around the
corner and saw a fish dangling in the
air at the end of Major Anderson's
fishing line.
Surely the law prohibits SEEMING
and dynamiting," commented Walker.
IF anyone attempts to break the
state law by using seins or dynamite
The fishermen continued their sport.
They moved from Lake Geneva to
Lake Winona and their luck followed
them for every time they jerked their
poles a fish came out of the water,
caught on the big, barbed fish hook.
County Attorney Hungate, who is
an expert on fishing law, came by. A
bystander asked if the anglers could
fish without holding state license.
Estate license doesn't apply to fish
ing on Kansas avenue at any rate.'
replied Hungate who looked Jealous
when he saw Major Anderson pull a
fish out of one lake, four by ten feet,
five times in three minutes. Hungate
has never been able to pull three fish
in five minutes out of Lake View.

it rain fish here last night2'' he asked.
For reply the fishermen gave yank
in unison and each pulled a fish out of
the water Must have" unused the
farmer and he drove on.
The fishermen fished with more than
usual fshermen's luck. for they pulled
fishes out of every hole in the pave
ment that they fished in and some of
the fishing holes must have been deep,
for the fishermen held the ends of the
noles close to the water to allow the
hooks plenty of line under water.

these two ships, was in the neighborhood
of $3.50, goo and at that rate of expenditure
the $2s16, 713 will last until early in jan

Canal Appropriation of 10 Million Dol
lars Soon VIII Be Exhausted.

Washington, Aug. 1S.-One of the
first important tasks awaiting Mr..
Shonts, when he assumed the presi-
dency of the isthmian canal commits
sion, was the conservation of the bal
ance remaining of, the appropriation
of 10 million dollars SO as to guard
against a stoppage of the work of
canal building. Calling to his aid sew
eral expert accountants, the exact state
of the finances of the commission was
ascertained and it was found that the
work could be steadily prosecuted un-
til congress at the next regular session
should have ample opportunity to pro
vide more funds. Therefore the bal
ance on hand was divided into month
ly aIlotments, which have so far been
closely adhered to save IN one case,
where an unexpected demand arose
| for additional transportation 1aciilues-
Thus the commission has, 1t oeheves:
avoided the necessity of awaiting itself
of the privilege granted by congress
of issuing bonds to meet expenditures
The commission has Issued the Iot-

cable says Russian crops of wheat and

tons of the winter wheat crop by saying:
Special reports from the principal wheat
states shows most farmers are stacking
their wheat or storing 1t except in Mlqfn-
igan and Nebraska. In Kentucky. Tennes-

farmers are selling it, fearing it won't

SAID large percentage of wheat grown IN
the territories, Missouri, Illinois and
southern Indiana is of inferior quality and
IS being marketed" The press comments
on the large yields in a few states and
says nothing of the eleven states that
grew less wheat this year than in 1904.
The government report says California
grew more wheat than in 1904, but private
advices say that they did not secure two
thirds as much as last year.

CORN-While the corn market does not
show much decline during the past few
days the market acts heavy. It is report
ed Nebraska will soon begin to market its
old corn if the price holds anywhere
around the present level The movement
will begin as soon as threshing is out of
the way. 1t looks like corn must seek a
lower level while a record breaking crop
