lie knows now that a correct picture OF
a dav with a rod and line is a canvas
decorated with a helpless fisherman in
the background, while across the fore
grc ind speed boats loaded down with
people who shoot of guns. shout glee-
fully. and ring cOWbells. The old-fash-
lODed idea Of catching fish with a hook
Is anttqNate1. The right way is TO
hSpnotiZe them.
However Judge Taft is a mighty fish
ermau. He catches a few every day.
WhJu a fish, reckless beyond conception,
letters behind the retreat of his com
ra0es- he finds a resting place in the
candidates boat. The Judge picks OF
the stragglers with unfailing and con-
sistent skill.
But these few facts will enable the
world TO understand why he intends to
write a book some day when time hangs
heavy and the cries Of politicians re-
echo no longer through the land Also,
this brief description of the facts may
lead 10 an appreciation Of why he Will
make IL a sweet little story done UP in
satire and ornately trimmed with sar-
Casm. Why he will call il The Delight
full Solitude of Fishing however, can
not be understood so readily.
Perhaps he Will think better OF il and
give il another name. AT any rate,
he can feel grateful. because he has
learned a few things about fishing up

BASS IN RETREAT
BEFORE CROWDS
So Sportsman Will Decorate Story
With Satire and Trim 1t
With Sarcasm.
By JAMES Hay, JR.

MIDDLE BASS ISLAND. OHIO, Sept.
8-Some fine day, when L-il.e hangs
heavy and the cries of politicians re-echo
through the land no longer, William
Howard Taft will write a book, entitled.
THE Delightful Solitude Of Fishing.
II viii be a sweet little story, done up
in satire ana Ornately trimmed with
sarcasm.
The book viii be full Of vivid descrip-
tions OF fuss and faces, gunshots and
garrulity, laughter and loudness. 1t VAL
make Izaak Walton, who wrote, The
Sport of Fishing look like 80 cents.
All this is true because the Republican
nominee for the Presidency has been
taught new and startling things about
how 10 fish since he JOuTneyed TO this
island. cherishing in his mind lovely
dreams OF long days OF loneliness as he
rocked IN a boat with nothing but the
voice OF the waves in his ears.
But his dreams were false. When no
goes fishing here. the word IS passed
all along the island and across the
water TO the mainland and the neigh
boring islands, Immediately every kind
Of craft that has the nerve 10 float Is
pressed into commission. and the in
habitants from far and wide jump
aboard 20 go for a glimpse Of the ia
fun of boats. Squadrons skip merrily
over the water. Fleets sweep toward
the fishing grounds in perfect formation.
Rowboats race madly, trying to get
there first
Encircle the Candidate.
Then, with but slightly slackened
speed, the ships and yachts and boats
make a complete circle around the help
less follower of Izaak Walton. They
look at him and stare at him. They
produce field glasses, binoculars. and Op-
era glasses. And. in never-ending cho-
rus, there float across the water to his
boat such maidenly and admiring ex-
ClamatiOus as the following;
OH 1 didn't think he'd wear an ugly
old hat like that!'
Isn't he just the image Of Grover
Cleveland?'
How many fish has ne caught?"
Il suppose he dresseE III that rough
suit Just TO catch the labor VOter'
Aren't candidates the lJnniest things
You ever saw
He does know how 70 FISH, doesn't [
he?"
Thus. on the laughing waters of Lake
Erle, a pin is pushed illtO that old bai-
loon of a tradition that peace and quiet
are required for the catching of fish
And thus II IS demonstrated that sOlI-
tude is not an accompaniment of the
sport. Rather, IL is pre-eminently a
place for the braying Of horns, the ring
ing OF COwbells. the. lifting of voices
and the hullabaloO of excitement and
pandemOIium.
But, Notwithstanding this, the noise
has an effect on the gentle black bass,
the retiring pickerel and the modest
perch. Fish love a fuss, but they love
IL at a distance. When a naphtha
launch churns the water with a rever-
beratioU loud enough 10 reach the Can
adlan shore, IL IS music TO their ears,
hut Il is the music of the Retreat"

The lobster is the new spring fashion for ships marine architects and en- wineers are studying the lovely lob ster. with a view to modelling future levfathans on his lines. They have to build an osean greyhound which will cross the Atlantic in three days. And thay base their hopes on the structure of the lobster. which can make twen- ty-five feet in less than a second. As a landlubber the lobster may be un- Rafnly, but in his native element he is both speedy and graceful, says The Chicago Tribune. Moving along the sea bottoms, his habitat, he walks nfmbly along on the tips of his slen- der legs, the large claws extended for ward in front of the head, position which offers the least resistance to the water. while the two hinder legs are used for walking. These end in hard spur-lika joints which serve as bricks to steady his movements. Delicate awinnners are attached vertically to the under surface of the tail. each of thern consisting of a short stalk and two flexible blades, which aid his pro- rress. By far the most powerful or- gan of locomotion the lobster pos seaaaa is his so-called tail. By the dexion of this tail he is enabled to unaEa hia wonderful backward flight throuzh the water. And it 10 the mechanIsm and operation of this tail which inc men of science are now studying. They hope to initiate the swfft backward spring by a mechan- feaI device which will so repeat the propeiling spring as to make it one continuous, unbroken speedy advance through the waters.
