men left our town on Tuesday at

the finny tribe, using as a means
of locomotion one of the many
gasoline launches in this COM
munity. In due time, it is chroni-
cled. they reached the happy fish
ing grounds, and here the story
ends-almost. There are two
things that it would be no discredit
to Ommiscience not to know
when a mule is going to kick or a
gasoline engine stop. The party
started home at $50 p. m, arriv-
ing at 1870 a. m, and by the way,
they caught one fish just before
starting.
