HOOKING ALLIGAT0RS.

A Florida Sport With an Element Of
. Uncertainty In It.
Hunting alligators at night with
Sbullseye lantern and shotgun is tame
sport compared with what is called a
gator hunt in Florida" said an old
F1oridian who is visiting New York.
II mean the feat Of capturing an ALI
gator alive and then towing the fellow
to high ground through mud and water
from what is called in Florida ga
tor hole.
''The gator fishermen first find the
hole, which is indicated by an opening
| in the surrounding grass in the midst
of a dense growth Of vegetation, where
the ground is worn smooth by the al
ligator In his pulls in and out. Some
times these gator holes are in the ma
ture Of cave in the bank Of stream
and maybe fifteen or twenty feet
deep, and II so it is not an easy matter
to get the animal out.
'"The fisher is supplied with long
pole with a metal hook on the end.
He takes a strong rope and throws it
about the entrance of the hole. Then
the fisher rams with the hooked pole
down the den and waits and listens.
II he finds a gator in the hole he
leases the beast by poking him until
the gator in a rage finally grabs the
hooked pole and is pulled from the
den. 1t is with uncertainty that he is
dragged forth. for it is not known
whether the catch is large or small.
The fisher does not know whether to
get into shape to run or to fight Out
the gator comes. believing and roar
ing mad.
After the gator is dragged to the
surface he in his rage turns and rolls
and finally twists himself up in the
rope or moose that has been previously
prepared. With the assistance Of the
Others in the party the gators legs
and mouth are tied and the gator is
(prisoner.
1.-THE gator is for the most part
caught In marshes where the ground is
soft and slushy and too wet for either
horse or wagon to enter. The fishers
are compelled to carry their catch to
higher ground, there to be loaded into
the waiting wagon, and the hunt is
|ended."-New York Sun.

This mental disturbance is often
caused by the habit Of taking things
too seriously, carrying too great .
weight of responsibility. Everywhere
we see people who take life too seri-
ously. Most of us are like the motor
man who not only starts and stops the
car and tries to keep from running
over people. but also feels tremendous
anxiety and responsibility about the
motive power. ... q
One of the most helpful lessons Life
can impart is that which shows u
how to do our work as well as it car
