A TERRIBLE BIG TROUT.
He Was Cunning and Hard Case
Too, Was This Fish.

We were camping in northern Wis
consin, and one evening after our sup
per of black bass and bacon we lay
under the pine trees smoking and tell
tng fish stories in which it was always
the digger bass that got away. The
guide listened with the gravity of
man who knew all about fish stories,
and finally he knocked the ashes from
his pipe and told us story.
"Once long ago" he said. there was
a terrible big trout up in Smiths
pool. Every fellow who fished in the
pool had hooked him one time or an
other. but he always got away, bit of
the snood or something.
81 tried to catch him myself dozen
times One day 1 was sitting by the
pool when, splash. young robin
futtered out of the nest on a limb
above the pool into the water below.
In a minute there was rush. CLEAN
of yellow, and the old trout had
thrown himself clear out of the water
and had swallowed the young robin
whole.
''What did l do? Well, I climbed
that tree in short order, got another
one of those young robins, baited my
hook with it and threw it in just as
lightly as 1 could. In G minute there
was another rush, another CLEAN Of
yellow, and again the old trout jump
ed clear out Of the water as he swal-
lowed the robin, and in minute more
had him hooked
'It was lucky 1 wasn't fishing with
any of this newfangled rigging these
boys use and that l wasn't bothered
with a reel to look after, or would
have lost him sure. AS it was it took
me devil Of time to get him out.
Good to eat? Great Scott! We
didn't try to eat him. He was so full

Now commenced my work, and I de.

rows of prickly pear, most painful
operation. And now we found that
there was nobody below to signal us
where the nest lay. The inevitable re-

hauled up again, always through the

Stones and Wooden Tubes Filled With

There appear to be two ideas which
have led up to the invention of the
modern anchor-frst, that of attach
ing the vessel by means of a rope
or chain to weight sufficiently heavy
to keep the vessel from moving when
the weight has sunk to the bottom of
the sea, and, second, that of using
hook instead of or in addition to the
weight, SO as to catch in the bottom
The English word anchor is practical
~ the same as the Latin ancora and
the Greek angkura, meaning chat
which has an angle" from the root
ank, bent.
The earliest anchors made on the
nook principle probably only had one
fuke instead of two. In the Sussex
Archaeil, Coll" there is an illustration
of what has been surmised to be an
anchor made out Of the natural forked
branch of a tree. It was found with

Sussex. There is in the British muse
UNI an interesting leaden anchor with
two fukes bearing a Greek inscrip-
ton. It's date is about SO 3. c., and It
was found off the coast of Cyrene.
The invention OF the anchor with
two flukes is attributed by Pausanius
to Midas, by Pliny to Eupalamas and
by Strabo to Anacharsis. DiodOrus
Siculus states that the first anchors
were wooden tubes flied with lead,
while another classical writer says
that before the Introduction Of metal

The form Of the anchors used by
the Greeks and Romans is well known

form does not seem to have changed
