A Mysterious Girl.

A tangible clue seems to have been
secured by the Muskegon officers to
the identity of Hattie Talket, the 49,
year-old girl. whose unbroken silence
since she was first found in that city,
unkempt and begging, has baffled all
the attempts of the Muskegon and
Grand Rapids authorities to find her
parents. County Poor Superintendent
Gordon has received an Unsigned let
ter mailed from Newaygo inquiring for
the girl. purporting to be from her
parents The writer states that he
thinks Hattie is his daughter who ran
away three months ago and asks for a
description of her. He says that he
saw her picture in a Grand Rapids
paper, evidently having picked up and
old issue The local authorities are
at a loss what to do in case the writer
of the letter proves his parentage. 1t
is plain that Hattie came from an ig-
norant household, while now she is
well looked after by farmers family
at Nunica.

FOwlerville and surrounding country

with wreckage, with probably 20 fam

by Saturday afternoons cyclone will
reach upwards of 100000. Townspeo-
pie did not realize the severity of the
windstorm until Sunday. and then
everyone whose home had been spared
turned out to assist the unfortunate
ones in gathering up their property.
Not until long after the cyclone had
passed over did many of the residents
leave their homes and places of en-
ployment. Many were frightened
stone stiff and. in some instances, peo-
pie were even afraid to venture into
the open after the rainbow had made
its appearance, giving assurance that
the storm had ended. They were
timid even until Sunday. many fearing
that the tornado-like windstorm would
return TO wreck their homes and, per-
haps, send them TO eternity.
A conservative estimate places the
number of buildings damaged, or de-
molished at $50. This may be In

Pathos and Humor.

one who meditates a plunge into print.
Even the writing of death notice in
wolves a certain amount Of genius if
the author wishes to keep clear and
well defined the fragile line which lies
between the serious and the funny.
That this is true is shown by certain
quotations from a Leipzig paper given
IN Bishop John F. Hurst's Life and
Literature In the Fatherland." Here
are few sentences extracted from
these obituary notices:

the third time our only child"

am inclined to believe that fly fish
ing has its chief and most easily de-
fined excuse in the existence of a GER
tain fish-Salvelinus fontinahs, the
Epeckled trout. Here, indeed. is some
thing tangible, a thing which may be
taken in the hand-frst catch your fish
and looked upon. No one seeing a
freshly caught brook trout would say
that it was other than a thing Of beau

sdency is not equaled by any living

The tarpon. the Silver king" Of

cific salmons, the ouananiche, or land.
Booked salmon, and the grayling com
prise practically all the other fishes,
excepting the various forms Of brook
trout, which may be said to possess
both beauty Of form and coloration. 1t
cannot be Denied that these fish are
nustifiably praised but it is generally
conceded that the red spotted brook
trout has nothing to fear from their
competition. OF the western rainbows,
clItthroats and steel heads the rain
bow is the eastern brook trout's near
est competitor, and that is praise
enough for the rainbow.
So here is one good reason at least
why fly fishing for trout is considered
