Fishing on Horseback.

On the California coast they fish on
horseback. After big blow enormous
numbers of squid are sometimes seen
washing about among the pounding
breakers. When such news comes to the
town every man or boy who can beg or
borrow a horse goes galloping down to
the beach armed with a 6-foot bamboo,
at the end of which is a strong steel
hook. They dash into the surf, and,
driving the sharp steel into the squirm-
ing jellylike creatures, haul them ashore
one by one and leave them lying high
and dry upon the beach, pumping ink
and water, and with their long sucker
trimmed arms cOiling about like snakes.
Squid sell for couple of shillings apiece.
Their flesh is good for bait; the pen,
hong opaltinted bone which extends
from the tip of the tail to the neck,
forms the cuttlefsh bone of commerce,
and the eyes, which when dried look like
large dull pearls, find ready sale among
the curio dealers.-Fry's Magazine.

When Buffalo Bills Wild West show

she gave a reception to the Indians, in
viting a hundred or more or her TRENDS
to meet them.
The Indians made a gorgeous sight in
their native costumes. Their feathered
head dresses were particularly large and
splendid. One little while girl, who had
been brought by her mother, and who
had never seen an Indian before, gazed
with open mouthed astonshment "a at
these strange feathered creatures. FL
nalIy she turned to her mother and said

PROPERTY IS MoRTGAGED.
Encumbrance of $4,000 on wurdemann
Homestead.


First accounts of the recent settlement
made by DR.. V. II. Wurdemann of
financial matters growing out of the d.
vorce suit were erroneous in several par
ticulars.
By the settlement, as effected Thurs
day, DR.. Wurdemann turns over to his
first wife property said to be worth SOL
600, but mortgaged in the sum of $10,-
600, to be held by her as guardian for
the two children of their marriage, Con-
verse and Helen L. Wurdemann.
The property thus transferred to Mrs.
Wurdemann consists of the Wurdemann
homestead at 1907 Grand avenue, two
lots at Thirty-seventh street and Grand
avenue, two lots on the Hopkins road,
$500 in cash, sailboat, rifle and bicycle.
In addition to this there is transferred
$4,000 in life insurance, in which Mrs.
Wurdemann is beneficiary in the sum of
$4,000, which has, still several years
to run, and upon which Mrs. Wurde-
mann must keep up the premiums, with
the alternative of letting the insurance
lapse. Mrs. Wurdemann has agreed to
pay for u 5000 piano which was bought
before the separation, her sons college
expenses for the last year, and other
bills.
The settlement relieves DR.. Wurde-
mann from paying $75 a month for the
support of his daughter, and from the
support of his son. When Mrs. Wurde-
mann was given divorce from Or.
Wurdemann in 1906 the custody of the
son was given to him. Upon Mrs. Wur-
was not properly cared for by his father,
and preferred to be with his mother,
Judge Halsey transferred custody to the
mother.

MILLIONS IN TEXAS ONIONS.
What the Growers of the State Have
Done to Improve the Crop.


Texas onion growers have gone the
men of the Bermuda islands one better
and have produced a Texas Bermuda
onion superior in flavor and hardness
to the Bermuda islands onions.
Last summer the agent of the South
Texas Truck Growers association Wis
tied the Bermuda islands and the Ca
nary islands and secured a big consign-
ment of seed. This seed has pro-
duced this years onion crop in Texas
of a greater size and of fine quality.
Whereas it was formerly estimated that
the Bermuda growers shipped 1,OOO,OOO
crates of onions to this country annual
ly, it is now estimated that their ship
ments this year amounted to about $780,
600 crates.
Some $50 carloads of onions have been
shipped out of southwest Texas already,
and the movement is not yet over. 1t is
estimated that over 1000 carloads will
be shipped. These have brought prices
at first as high as 5000 and 500 a car
load before the competition of other
onions came in, but now are bringing
from $500 to $500 a carload. The gross
returns OF the onion crop in this part of
Texas will be over million dollars this
year. This does not include the amount
sold and consumed at home.
A few days ago a whole shipload of
onions left Galveston for Atlantic coast
ports. At the present rate that the
growers are prospecting Texas in a few
years will have a class of onion million

well known to every one, although most
persons suppose it is. Shyness is the
cause of as many mistakes as ignorance.

making and receiving of an introduction
that is confusing to all kinds of people.
These simple rules will keep you
straight if you don't get self-conscious
and stumble over them:
Always present man to lady.
Always ask permission of the lady if
you have the time: if not. use the form.
''Mrs. Blank may I present Mr.. Dash 2
Always introduce a younger woman to

equal age and station, it is informal to
say. "Iiss Blank, do you know Miss
