Big Haul of Fish. =.

Ted Carroll, who is engaged in seining
carp in Lake Koshkonong, made re-
markably large catch at the ,Carcajou
camp on the north shore last Friday.
1t was the second largest catch of carp
and buffalo ever taken out of that body
of water. Twice before within the past
fortnight Ted Carroll and his men had
windlassed in the big net for meagre re :
turns of 100 pounds. But early Friday
morning a brisk inshore wind set in and
blew steadily all day and the little tug
and it's convoy of scows were unable to
carry away in one tri., the big haul
which rewarded their efforts about sun
set Over 10000 pounds of live weight
struggled against and threatened to tear
open the incoming seine. Some of the
carp were 30 Founders and the specta-
tors saw pickerel which might have
tipped the beams at 25 pounds, immense
pike, silver bass, and croppies tossed
into the lake under the direction of the
game warden from Brooklyn. The rec
ord catch for the lake is $4,000 pounds.

Settled Debt Long Forgotten

Twelve years ago this summer Con
Mcdonald and w. c. Hart of this city,
drove to Edgerton where they witnessed
ball game.
While watching the contest a poorly
dressed individual approached Mr.. Nc
Donald and asked if he would loan him
S1.50, stating that he was out of cash
and had had nothing to eat all day.
The man was a stranger to the James
Vile boys but this made no difference to
Connie, who gave him the money. After
the cash was handed over the stranger
took Comics name and that ended the
affair for twelve years.
Friday this same stranger arrived in
town and soon located Mr.. Mcdonald, to
whom he related the circumstances and
then paid him back the $3.50.
The stranger, who is now prosperous
jeweler in growing city not many miles
away, said that he had always remem-
bered that act of kindness but never
happened to be in GAINESVILLE. Recorder.

immense audience became uneasy
again, and those on the outskirts be-
gan to press forward once more. The
president was interrupted and mount
ed officers and men of the United
States cavalry were called in to take
charge. They rode up and down along
the front of the crowd and gradually
opened 1t up and relieved the pres
sure.
The military encamped about the
exposition grounds began the days
ceremonies with the firing of the
three-century salute. Soon thereafter
from across the waters of Hampton
Roads came the boom of ship cannon,
signaling the beginning Of the review
by the president of the most formid-
able fleet Of international battleships
and cruisers the world has witnessed
in many years.
Review of the Great Fleet.
On board the tidy cruiser yacht
Mayfower, the president, with few
especially invited guests, was greeted
first by a roar of 81 guns from each
of the vessels, foreign and American.
Then, as he steamed along the lane
of the visiting men of war, he was
saluted individually and in turn by
every battleship and cruiser at anchor
in the roads. The marine picture,
viewed from shore by thousands and
from the decks of excursion and pleas
ure craft by almost as many more,
was at once imposing and impressive.
When his yacht had anchored in
the very midst Of the naval vessels,
the president received on board the
flag and commanding officers of the
foreign feet and the flag officers Of
the house squadrons.
Booming cannon again greeted the
president as he stepped upon the tenn
porary structure which is eventually
TO be magnificent water gate known
as Discovery Landing. President
Tucker, of the exposition, personally
welcomed Mr.. Roosevelt, saying
simply:
"Mr. President, Old Virginia salutes
you, sir"
The president returned the saluta-
ton and, with Mrs. Roosevelt, was
driven to the grandstand on the par
ade between two lines of soldiers from
the Twenty-third United States infan-
try.
Presses the Golden Button.
The ceremonies Of dedication were
brief, the features being the addresses
Of President Tucker of the exposition
and President Roosevelt. The latter,
at the conclusion Of his address,
pressed the gold button, which formal
ly marked the opening Of the commem-
crative enterprise. Then followed an
informal luncheon to the president
and 40 other guests in the Auditorium
or administration building. The repast
ended, the president repaired again to
the grandstand, from which he re-
viewed the parade of United States
soldiers and sailors. A reception by
the president in the Auditorium
brought the days events at the fair

President Averts a Panic.
Not the least impressive of the days
events was the action Of the president
In assuming command of the situation
In front of the crowded grandstand
from which he spoke, when panic
seized the surging throng of specta-
tors. Pressed against the guard ropes
by thousands of eager persons in the
rear of the gathering, who were fore
ing their way forward, the safety of
life and limb of those who had the
more favored positions was endah-
gered.
President Roosevelt had Just been
introduced by Harry st. George Tuck
er, the head Of theJamestown Exposi-
tion company, when the disorder and
unrest in the crowd reached its height
and the civil guards in front of the
grandstand seemed about to be swept
from their posts. With the agility Of
schoolboy, the president jumped
upon the table which had been placed
in the speakers balcony and, waving
his arms. cried out to the men of Vir-
ginia to live up to their traditions of
gallantry and cease the crowding
which was threatening the lives Of
the women and children in the as
semblage.
Soldiers Quiet the Crowd.
The crowd needed the presidents
warning at once, but when he had set
tied down into his speech, and the
words were fairly blown from his
