THE FUNNY PUffER.
4 Fish That Blows Himself Up Into .
Round Bull.

The funniest little fellow in salt wa
ter is the puffer or swell fish. Fisher
men call him the blow fish.
When he is swimming around at ease
with nothing to alarm him he locke
queer enough, for the skin OF his abdo-
men is all loose and wrinkled, and he
has such a funny little tail and such
ridiculous little fms and such big.
hree cornered head that he looks en-
tirely absurd. His mouth, instead Of
being big and gaping, as most fish
mouths are, is only tiny round hole
at the end Of pointed. conical snout.
Out Of this circular mouth protrude
bis teeth, like those Of rabbit.
He would be about rs homely fish
as could be made If 1t were not for
the beautiful orange and yellow and
silver colorings that play all over him.
But queer as he looks when he Is at
ease It is only when he is frightened
or excited that he becomes really fun
ny. II he is hooked. for instance. he
comes to the surface grinding those
protruding teeth so that the sound can
be heard good many feet away. Ana
then as soon as the hand touches him
he begins to grunt hoarsely, and with
each grunt he swells bit till within q
few moments he has pulled himself SO
full of air that he Is quite round and
firm like ball. So thoroughly doe0
be distend himself with air that when
the fishermen hurl him at the water
with all their force, as they often do,
he will bounce just like rubber ball.
If he is dropped into the water after
blowing himself full Of air he floats
on it as lightly as thistledown, and lie
will stay that way until he has assured
himself that danger has gone by. lie
does the same when he Is pursued by
other fish. And as he floats almost en-.
tirely out Of water with only little
bit Of his hard, spiny body sunk under
the surface, very few fSh can hurt
him once he Is inflated.

is STATE Taft CLUB
REALLY FOR stcRtTARY1
ISTORY COMES FROM TACOMA
THAT FAIRBANKS Is YET
THE MAN.

TACOMA, March 1.-THE recent
injecting of the Taft League in this
city is considered an admirable illus
tration of the manner in which an at
tempt is being made to smother the as
|piratiOns of the secretary of war in the
house of his friends. Moreover, it is
interpreted as an effort to foist Fair
banks covertly on the people with the
ultimate object of placing John Lock-
wood Wilson in line for secretary of
the interior in case of Fairbanks
success.
| Among the citizens prominent in
the deliberations of the Taft club were
the following named:
Ralph Metcalf, of Pierce county, who
was elected president of the club. Mr..
Metcalf has long been known as a
supporter of Fairbanks.
J. A. F'alconer Of Everett, who is
John L. Wilson's candidate for the
state senate to succeed Senator Sum
ner. F,alconer's lineup is distinctively
for Wilson and necessarily is anti-Taft
Ex-Gov. Miles c. Moore. of Walla
Walla, who in 1892 left the republican
party, then went to the Populists and
eventually became a Bryan democrat.
w. H. Paulhamus of Sumner, who
has been outspoken in his support OF
Hughes of New York for president
S. L. Lennon of Seattle, elected Sec
retary of the Taft club. Mr.. Lennon is
head of the Jones club in Seattle, and
Jones has already declared himself for
Cannon.
One of the diversions of the meet
ing in this city was the manner in
which Hon. S. c.. Cosgrove was admit
ted to the councils of the so-called
Taft club. Cosgrove has been going up
and down the state. ostensibly BOOM
ing himself for governor, but actually
sounding sentiment as to Fairbanks.
He applied for admission to the Taft
club, after having made the state
ment that he was for Fairbanks nrst,
last and all the time, and if the club
chose to admit him with that under
standing, he would sign the roll. Cos
grove was admitted.
The meeting of the Taft club accom-
plished little more than to give sup
porters of Fairbanks and Wilson
chance to declare themselves, and to
quietly boost Wilson for the place ne
covets in the next cabinet.

OLYMPIA, March 14.-As the result

This applies to all rates on such COM

The Puyallup rate affects about 500

Puyallup and Sumpter Fruit Growers
association For Is years the growers of
the Puyallup Valley had been shipping
berries on rate based on weight OF
