A Delightful Experience.

Two of the most delighted gen
tlemen we have had the pleasure of
meeting for some time, were DR..
L. H. Barry and Chas. Won Bran
dis, of Durango, Mexico, who re-
turned yesterday afternoon from
Padre island, where they enjoyed
the greatest sport in angling for
tarpon. Mr.. Won Brands was sue
cessful in landing FIVE of the silver
kings, and it had begun to look as
though DR.. Barry would have to
return empty handed, but his in
ming came yesterday morning when
he succeeded in capturing a mons
ter tarpon, some seven feet long.
But with his good luck came a
large streak of Ill fortune. As the
tarpon was being flowed to shore a
huge shark came along, and with
one snap,of his powerful jaws, bit
the large fish square in two, leav-
ing about forty inches attached to
the line Not satisfied with this the
shark made several attempts to get
the remainder of the tarpon, fol-
lowing the boat until shallow wa
ter fore d him to desist. The two
gentlemen say they had the time
of their lives at Padre, and if pos

Tansey Wants to Resign.

The Caller learns that Secretary
Tansey has decided to tender his
resignation to the Board of Trade.
But that doesn't mean that the
wide-awake, hustling and ploqres
sive secretary will be alloweu to
go, for the people too fully ap-
preciate the good work he has
untiringlyiperformed to bring Cor
pus Christi to the front rank it
now occupies and especially so is it
necessary that he be retained at
this important period, for he is
doing work that others could not
undertake. See to it that P. H.
Tansey remains as secretary of the
Corpus Christi Board of Trade

sible will return next summer more
thoroughly prepared to do battle
with the silver king. They also
caught almost every variety of fish,
and are enthusiastic over the fishing
at Padre. Mr.. Won Brands says he
has hshed in almost all the famous
waters, but has never yet found a
place equal to the Padre island
neighborhood.
The gentlemen also captured a
shark about eight feet long, and
taken altogether, they have had
one of the most delightful outings
ever experienced. DR.. Barry says
he was especially anxious to land
a tarpon, as he has a friend in
Durango, who has been to Rock
port on four different occasions,
ana mas NOT yer succeeded IN land
ing one of these game fish. The
doctor did not want his friend to
say I told you so, when he re-
turned home, hence his persistence,
which was amply rewarded yester-
day morning.
The gentlemen expect to leave
for home via the Mexican National
tomorrow morning, carrying with
them not only a good record as
tarpon fishers, but the memory of
a most pleasant visit to our city.
d.. Barry and Mr.. Won Brands,
with a party of friends were the
guests of DR.. Barragan at lunch
today in Matamoros.

HUGE SKELETON UNEARTHED
Santa FEES Industrial Agent Digs up the
Skeleton of Giant Animal.

Berry Hershey, travelling freight
agent in charge of the industrial
department of the Santa Fe, has
returned from several days ex-
petition along the San Angelo
branch, bringing with him a most
interesting collection of bones of
some ancient giant of the animal
kingdom.
Mr.. Hershey, in pursuing his
Investigations into the soil, geolog-
ical, neurological and other con-
ditions from a scientific standpoint.
unearthed huge skeleton a short
distance from a certain station on
the branch which promises to prove
of value to those interested in
studdlng the prehistoric creatures.
Mr.. Hershey has had considerable
experience along these lines and
appreciated the importance and
value of the discovery.
The bones are to be sent to
Austin for further investigation
and study with view of determin-
ing what the animal was. While
not prepared to say just what the
massive creature might have been,
Mr.. Hershey believes it differs
somewhat from the skeletons of
prehistoric animals of gigantic
stature known to scientists. The
skeleton rested very near the sur
face and in life evidently measured
twenty feet in length by about ten
or twelve feet high
Owing to Mr. Hershey S extreme
modesty he will not submit to a
length discussion of his find at this
time, preferring to await develop
ments in the investigation at the
hands of more advanced students
of the world and its inhabitants as
it was in the very long ago when
the earth was young and flourish

TOXIC WILD WITH JOY
Receipt of Noei's Telegram Signal for
General Celebration

By Associated PI ess.
TOXIC, Jan. ~ 11:7o a.*in.-Tokio is.
wildly joyous over Gen. Nogi's tele-
gram announcing that Gen. Stoessel
had sent a letter relating to the sur
render of Port Arthur.
Newsboys crying extras were the
messengers who carried the news to
the holiday crowds in the streets. The
people grabbed the papers and re-
peated the cries. Thus was the news
carried throughout the city and within
a few minutes the firing of aerial
bombs and daylight rockets began in
various parts of the city. Bands ap-
peared and score of small PROFESSIONS
formed and surged through the streets.
The news that the Russian forces at
Port Arthur had been reduced to such
n strait that at last the heroic COM
mander had been forced to surrender,
follows upon a month of reverses. The
siege began almost with the firing OF
the first gun in the war, now nearly
eleven months ago, and when perhaps
the greatest stronghold in the world
was garrisoned by 10000 Russian SOL

sourian Fatally Cuts Himself In

in-law's home here today and cut his
throat with a razor from ear to ear
in sight of several hundred persons who
had been attracted by Mrs. Gleason's S
screams. There was no witness to the
first part of the tragedy except the
young wife. who is now dying in the
city hospital.
Mrs. Gleason was terribly wounded.
Her throat and face were slashed and
her hands and arms were badly cut.
After cutting his throat Gleason
knocked down Mrs. Roller, his moth
er-in-law, who tried to interfere. and
rushing outside was chased two blocks
by the crowd before he fell exhausted
and succumbed to his wounds.
The couple had been separated and
Gleason had followed his wife here in
an endeavor to affect a reconciliation.
Gleason was twentyreght years Of age;
his wife eighteen.

Special to The Herald.
SACRAMENTO, Jaa. IA surprise
was sprung at late hour tonight by
the announcement that Arthur Fisk,
ex-speaker of the lower house and now
postmaster of San Francisco, will be
a candidate for United States senator.
While he has remained out of the con-
test up to this time, 1t Is understood
that a number of his friends stand
ready to do what they can to land the
toga for him. Mr.. Fisk says he has
been assured that the organization will
keep hands off, and it is on this basis
that he has consented to become a
candidate.
With the introduction of Fisk into
the senatorial fight the solution of the
question becomes more difficult, and it
is now predicted that the battle will be
an open one. 1t is believed Fisk's
candidacy will injure the chances of
Frank p. Flint more than any other
aspirant. '
