Paw Paw Man Can Go Him One
Better.

Fred Mosier has broken all records so
far this season. Last Sunday he and
Mrs Mosier went out to Three Mile lake
and just at dusk he went out alone to
try his luck at casting for few minutes
before going home. He had not made
more than dozen casts before he hook
ed the bass that will probably hold the
record of the big catch in Three Mile
lake for years to come. 1t didn't take
long to find pair of steelyards when it
was found that the bass weighed exact
ly seven pounds. He was caught near
the vest shore of the lake in front of
the Tolles house. Mr. Mosier presented
it to Fred Stern as birthday present
Decatur Republican.
Max Brown of Paw Paw caught a
black bass in the same lake several
weeks ago that tipped the beam at ~
pounds. Fred Mosiers catch was a
beauty, but the Paw Paw boy wears
the belt.

Lawrence Again Defeats Bangor

Lawrence Again Defeats Bangor.
Lawrence again crossed bats with the
Bangor high school team at South Ha-
ven on the 4th of July. Since the game
at Lawrence, Field Day, which decided
the county championship, there has been
some feeling on the part of Bangor that
the game was not a fair test Of the
strength of the respective teams. They
have wanted another opportunity to
play the Lawrence boys. There is now
no chance for any doubt as to the su-
periority of the Lawrence team as Law
renee won the game by a score of to 3.

One Of the most amusing speeches
Private" Allen ever made in the house
was in support of the bill to tax oleo-
margarine. Representative Tillman Of
South Carolina, brother Of Senator Ben
Tillman, had claimed that oleo is su-
perior to many brands of butter and
that it was an injustice to the poor
man TO prevent his buying it. In re-
ply Allen told story of an old negro
who had eaten box Of axle grease,
thinking it cheese. Upon being asked
how he liked it the old man replied:
"Fo' God, boss, dat was de ransom.
est cheese 1 eber has eat yet"
"Now. Mr. Chairman" commented
Allen, 81 have no doubt that If a prop
osition were pending here to prevent
the sale of axle grease for cheese the
gentleman from South Carolina would
deliver us a scientific lecture and try
to persuade us 1t was much better and
more wholesome than cheese and that
It would be a great outrage on the la
boring man to suppress the fraud"

On a later occasion Allen had diff
Guilty in securing recognition. When he
finally got the floor, he said in a deeply
injured tone:
"There is an evident disposition on
the part Of somebody TO suppress my
impassioned oratory. wish TO assure
the speaker and the house that it is not
my purpose. and have no desire by
my fervid and persuasive eloquence to
