closes itself, It's contrasts finding ia

sonorous chords weighed out by so
masterful a hand; this steady beat OF

Hadiey as a Trout Catcher.

Attorney General Herbert S. Hadley
of Missouri has added another feather
to his cap. He came to Colorado two
weeks ago with a world breaking rec
ord for trust breaking, and he goes
back to Missouri with one for record
breaking. He has caught the biggest
trout ever landed in Estes park. The
fish tipped the scales at exactly sever
and ~one-quarter pounds.
The young attorney general has a
reputation for being reticent. He
earned it in New York when stalking
Standard Oil magnates. But when it
came to telling how that whale of a
fish was caught-how he could talk!
MI. Hadley came in from Estes park
Sunday evening and for an hour he
held the hotel lobby s~pellbound telling
how the trout record of Estes park was
broken. He tells the story this way:
ut happened on the third or fourth
day we were in the park. we were
coming home from fishing one evening
with our baskets full of two and three
Founders. I found a place IN the Big
THOMPSON that looked good to me and
stopped a few minutes to fish. There
were some pretty fair rapids Tor a
couple of miles, and below them a
good sized pool. Just as l was about
to make my cast saw the water
swirl around the rock in a a that
looked mighty curious to me.
81 threw out towards 1t just for luck.
The tussle that followed made the n
with the Standard Oil in Missouri look
mild. / let the fish have the line until
nv reel humned and then the fight be-
gan.
IL thought I knew every sort of n
dodge q man or fish can execute, but
that whale Of Estes park taught me
some new ones. He pulled and tugged
at the line, he dived and cut through
the water until my line hummed like
a violin string. I was in constant fear
nv line would break, but after playing
him half an hour / landed him.
you would not believe me II l told
YOU how big that fish looked when
caught a glimpse of him once when he
tried to jump off my hook. And when
| landed him he mad not shrunk q bit.
I made straight for the hotel with him.
and he tipped the scales at exactly
seven and one-quarter pounds. 1t
does not sound true, but 1t Is, for
every one at he hotel saw me weigh
him.
Think of it! Seven and a quarter"
Very different from the white, tired
looking young man who came TO Den
yer two weeks ago, worn out by his
struggle with Rockefeller and II. ii.
Rogers. was the tanned fisherman who
told OF his big catch, and prouder of
II than of his gallant fight with the oil
octopus. Mr.. Hadley came In 10 get
s~upnlies and went back Monday to get
a good rest before returning to Mis-
sonri. He will be IN Denver July ii
and many entertainments are being
MANNED for the breaker at trusts and
records.
