Tho Greatest Fishing Ever,

We have it on good authority, if he
did go back IN us in another case,
that Van Crewson put in three full
days this week fishing on the Moreau,
and during the three days he caught
two slickers and a j~abberwock, the
three weighing six ounces, apothecar-
les weight. (This is a light weight,
twelve ounces to the pound, and that
was the kind of fish they were, but
we want it distinctly understood that
this weight don't apply 70 the fisher
man. Our informant also informed
us that near the close Of the third day,
Tuesday, Van declared he was just
getting in good trim for fishing, his
muscles were getting hard, and he
felt confident he could land a whale,
but right there calamity overlook him,
for when he went after bait for the
whale, he found some internal sco,n-
drei had stolen the bait, jug and all,
and the JIG was up. He has Leen con-
sidering, since his sad experience,
renting the First Nationals big Corliss
safe in which to keep his bait, but as
he would have to have DIR. HNbbarJ
along to open the safe, he has his
doubts as to whether the bait would
he any safer in the safe.

the treatment killed her. or else she was
