True. he may find something which
is too small and trifiing to warrant
searching TO find the owner. such as q

But when he finds something Of value.

knows that the first place 10 inquire

ut Is well-known fact that when
alarmed fish scuttle into dark places

told me Of an ingenious plan adopted
by an old fisherman on the Blue river
TO take advantage of this FISH custom"
said A. S. Van Valkenburgh, United
States district attorney.
The old fisherman procured bar
rel, bored a number of holes in It and
weighted the bottom with lead and
iron. To the top were fastened two
ropes attached to a windlass on boat
Rowing out to the middle of the Blue
the barrel was sunk, resting on the
bottom Of the river. Then the old
fisherman sent his four sons, two in
each direction, to points so yards
away, where they entered canoes and
commenced TO beat the water with fla
paddles, raising great hubbub. Grad.
ually they worked down to the boat,
where the old fisherman was ready to
haul out the barrel. AS they came
close to him he quickly manned the
windlass and the barrel came to the
surface. BY actual count there were
2S shad, 40 carp, II catfish and nine
