A Saline man claims to have just
turned out wonderful invention in
the shape of fish pole and tackle II
is so arranged that the instant a fish
as much as nibbles at the bait the
patent hook closes over the animal.
The faintest struggle Of the fish snaps
spring and this will cause a wheel
to revolve rapidly, winding up the
spring and sliding the fish along the
pole to the bank. In this way. once a
pole is set, it does not have to be re-
moved A man can read as he sits
on the bank, as the automatic pole
will take care of his fish.-Exchange

The above dispatch was yesterday re-,
ceived through the Associated Press
service, and is published verbatum. "The
shrieks that rose high above the shrIll
and awful bowling OF the hurricne"
were but whispers compared to the groans
of anguish emitted by the marine edi-
tor, when he received it. The dense
ignorance, of matters pertaining to the
sea, displayed in the telegram stamps
its sender as a tyro at the business.
Every one knows that a whale is fresh
water fish and will not bite, even at a
bald headed joke, Anything "as free as
the air" to be rented by whale sounds
like country boarding house at a
summer resort instead of sea yarn,
and by "ailmentary canal" he must have
meant the Panama canal. From the
number of knots that might be reeled
off in six hours it would be supposed
that the watchermacallit must have
been all tied up. Webster says that
rotator is revolving reverberatory
furnace" and this is the best thing
the sender Of the dispatch has done. 1t
certainly must have been hot thing
to act as he claims it did. The awful
story Of agony has affected the marine
reporters mind to such an extent that
il is question who is the craziest.
