MONKEY HELPED TO FISH.
Accompanied His Master and Was
Valuable In Landing Catches.

Valuable In Landing Catches.
For some years l lived in a small
town not far from Frome, and, being
very fond of fishing, l was able to in
dulge in my favorite pastime very of
ten, as the little river abounded in
trout, and l had permission to fish
about eight miles of it.
The only boat on the lake belonged
to Captain c., who rented a large
house with grounds coming down to
the lake, and he very kindly allowed
me the use of the boat at all times.
The captain was perhaps the finest fly
fisherman l have ever seen, an enthu-
siast at the sport, and was often to be
seen in the boat, his page boy rowing
him about.
The other occupant Of the boat was
invariably a monkey that sat stolidly
in the stern sheets, but when the cap
tain hooked a fish Jocko was all activ-
ity, dancing about the boat in a most
excited manner, and as soon as the
captain had drawn the fish near enough
the monkey, holding on to the gun
vale with one hand, would seize the
fish with the other throw it into the
boat and then resume his usual seat
/ never saw the monkey lose fish.
and Captain G. told me that he very
rarely did miss one. He never took Il
landing net with him when the monkey
accompanied him.-London Field.

Alfred Hunt was at the same time
both Il very slow and fastidlously

combination which is said to have has
tened his end, for he had block for
every hour Of the day and every con-
diiion Of weather, and, overladen with
these, lie would often trudge lengthy
distance to his work. He would then
start, say, on an incomplete morning
effect in sunshine, to be cast aside for
similar subject in shadow If the
scene clOuded over or for monday
one directly that hour was reached. 1t
is said that he consequently sometimes
carried as many as a dozen varieties
of the same view.-St. James Gazette.

How 1t Feels When the Killing Cur.
rent Is Turned On.

TOW u Feelb Wncn tne NiliinS OuTe
rent Is Turned On.
He waited a second or an age. Then
suddenly it seemed as if he must leap
from the chair his body was swelling
to some monstrous, impossible, inhu-
man shape; his muscles were stretch
ed, millions of hot and dreadful nee.
dies were piercing and pricking him, a
stupendous roaring was In his ears,
then a million colors-colors he had
never seen or imagined before, colors
no one had ever seen or imagined, col
ors beyond the range Of the spectrum,
new, undiscovered, summoned by some
mysterious agency from distant cor
ners of the universe-played before his
eyes. Suddenly they were shattered
by terrific explosion in his brain
then darkness.
But, no; there was still sensation. A
dull purple color slowly spread before
him, gradually grew lighter, expanded,
and with a mighty pain he struggled,
cropping his way in torture and tor
ment over fearful obstacles from some
far distance remote as black stars in
the cold abyss Of the universe. He
struggled back to life, then an appall-
ing confusion, a grasp of conscious
ness; he heard the ticking of the two
watches. Then through his brain there
slowly trickled a thread of thought
that sQuirmed and glowed like a white
hot wire.
A faint groan escaped the pale lips
below the black leather mask; tremor
ran through the form in the chair; there
1t relaxed and was still.
It's all over. The doctor, lifting his
fingers from Archie's wrist, tried to
smile and wiped the perspiration from
his face with a handkerchief.-From
Brand Whitlock's "The Turn of the
Balance"

No Wonder the Son Was SURPRISED

A melodrama was some years since
played in certain theater, the CHIEF
actor in which had made himself from
his overbearlng conduct, disliked by
one and all. In the last scene he was
supposed to visit the tombs of his an
cestors. In the. center Of the stage
upon marble pedestal, stood the stat
lie of his father. A heavy fold of dra.
per covered the figure.
Enter Albert. "Once again." he says
"let me gaze upon those features which
in life so often beamed with tenderest
affection. Father, thy mourning son
now comes to pay thee reverence. Let
me remove the veil which from vulgar
gaze shields the image of once dear
parent"
The drapery fell aside, and, behold,
the father stood upon his head! The
effect cannot be described 1t was
electric. The shouts Of laughter which
followed effectively put an end to the
scC.e. which Changed to the next as
quickly as possible amid the braves of
the audience, the anger of the manager
and the uncomfortable rage of the
r.--LGndGa 1itBltS.

TWO SINS OF OMISSION.

There are two needs of Florida Sc
crying that it would seem that the
average legislator, dense and deaf as
he frequently is, would be compelled
to hear and acknowledge them.
These two needs are-roads and
people.
Perhaps we should say people and
roads; but if we had the roads, they
would bring the people.
These two needs are so plain and
prominent as to dwarf by their rela-
tive Importance any other matter
that might come before a gathering
of men presumably come together
for the purpose of doing something
for the public good.
Aud yet the Florida Legislature
has refused to do anything to relieve
either of these pressing needs.
Good measures looking to Il sys-
TEN of good roads and the encourage
ment of immigration were brought
before the Legislative body, but in
common with practically all other
good measures, they were ruthlessly
killed.
The time that should have been
devoted to the consideration of mat
tiers of vital Importance to all the
State has been frittcred away in
trivialities.
Over 1000 bills have been intro
duced; scarcely any of general i'm
port have been passed.
The dominating elements of the
present Legislature have been in
cOmpetentcy and demagoguery.
The furthernnce of individual po-
litical fortunes, rather than consid-
GRAFTON of the needs OF the people,
has caused the public veal to b.
sacrificed to personal ambitions.
There are good and true men at
Tallahassee, but there have been
much in evidence men who went
there for the sole purpose of playing
to the galleries-men whose sinceri-
IS there is much reason to question.

Euphemisms For Death.

"Decease' is now a regular form of
word for death, But it began as a
gentle euphemism, "decessus (depar-
ture) seeming much less harsh to the
Romans than "mors." All languages
abound in euphemisms of the kind,
which go back to a superstitious re-
luctance to mention death plainly that
gradually passed into a kindly desire
to soften the idea. Passed away"
departed" gone" expire" breathe
OUT, mo more" demise" and even
"the late" are expressions of this ma
ture. Most striking of all is the Ro-
man euphemism for che is dead, "vix-
it" (he has lived.

Sweet Potato Pie.

Take several sweet potatoes, and
when they have boiled themselves ten
der peel and slice them. Line the bot
tom and sides of deep dish with
crust-the dish must be fully three
inches in depth-and upon this ar
range layer of the potatoes, butter
ing them literally. sugaring them free

Add next layer of very thin slices of
dough, sprinkle with hot water, then
follow with another layer of sliced po-
tatoes and repeat until the pan is full.
The top crust follows, and the pie must
then be baked for an hour or more
