THEY ALL WENT BACK ON niM.
FIsherman's Bitter Complaint Against
Alleged Friends.

Il never could and never shall be
toward one who has caught big fish" +"
said the man with the far-away look
in his eyes as the subject OF fishing
was broached. Last spring ! went
down TO Tampa Beach to fish for tar.
pom. On the second day out hooked
a monster That fish weighed over a
hundred pounds. While | was play
ing him over the boats approach, and
he leaped out OF water at least ten
men got fair sight Of him. All Of
them called out that he was a prize
and encouraged me TO hang on. The
fish finally snapped the line and got
away. to the disappointment of all.
When ! got back 10 the hotel | did
some talking OF course. but to be met
with grins and winks on every hand.
That rolled me, and began to call on
my witnesses. What do you think
was the result?'
We all knew, but no one answered,
and after minute the man con
tinued.
only one out Of the crowd would
back me, and when they came TO pin
him down he declared that IT was a
sea bass and weighed as much as five
pounds. Why is H. Sentlemen-why
is human nature built that way? Why
can't humanity give fisherman a fair
show"
But only echo answered. We had
been there ourselves.

Baseball is = chronic complaint OF
Senator Crane. When he was gov.
ernor OF Massachusetts, he took his
entire stan out for a drive, and sur.
priseCthem by having the rigs pull
up at an open field and announcing
there was to be baseball game. Two
mines were chosen and the game be
gan. Pretty soon somebody came
along the road.
What teams are they" he asked OF
one OF the drivers.
Why. that man pitching Is the gov

WIDOW ana viuo~er.

He was evidently an old bachelor.
And she showed sartorial and other
signs OF being a young widow in sec.
oud mourning g"-maybe 1t was third
mourning-Im not sure They were
both frankly hungry; and when they
were served. she said, between sips Of
claret;
ITS funny when a man dies before
his wife stress is given TO the notice
that he leaves widow II she goes
first. the announcements never say
she leaves widower Aren't the
facts idonticalG"
And the old bachelor answered:
by no means, A widow is so tim
i'd and retiring that It is necessary to
publish a notice to the effect that she
still hangs out at the same old sign.
But widuwer doesn't need advertis-
ing: he is as frankly widower as a
baby is a baby; and he's like a baby,
too-because the first six months he
cries. the second six months he takes
notice and he does mighty well II he
gets through his second summer"

unanimity of effort, as the need for
such vehicle in this city is apparen,
to all. 1t would be strange indeed to
hear Of any body so narrow as to with
