Tall Montana Folk.

A singular rivalry has arisen be-
tween two Montana towns as to which

more tall people than any town of Its
size on the continent. Ten members
OF one family have a combined height
of almost sixty feet. The father
weighs 215 pounds and is feet 1-s
inches tall. The mother weighs 225
pounds and Is 5 feet S inches tall
The first son, 6 feet 2 IL inches tall,
age q years; second son, 6 feet 4
inches, age 10 years. The head OF
this proud family is Herman Book
man.
Red Lodge calls attention to the
fact that in that city four members
of one family are taller than any four
members of the Bockman family. W.
A. Talmage is feet 4 l. inches tall;
Earl Talmage, age Is years, is 6 feet
s inches tall; Elmer Talmage, age
10 years, is 6 feet IA inches tall.
and Nathan. the youngest, who is only
IL years of age, measures feet s

DRY FLY FISHING.

Hints to the AngIer-How to Entics
Big Fish.
Dry fly fishing is very little prac-
tised in this country for the reason
that almost all authorities seemed to
agree that the wet fly method is the
only one suited to our streams. G.
M. L. La Branche. in an article in Re-
creation, declares that fly doctor
ed" with very light application of
paraffine is nearly always to be pre-
ferred TO we+ fly, If an angler once
gets wise" to the right way to cast.
A few of the points he emphasizes are
rs follows:
eff the angler wants big fish-and
we all do-the dry fly will take them
when nothing else will; but it must
be presented properly to the highly
educated trout Of streams that are
much fished My one great difficulty
at the start was a seeming inability
to check the impulse to give the fly.
after 1t had alighted. few spasmodic
jerks, thinking to make 1t look alive,
This action is fatal. The small fish
will take 1t, of course as they will
also when 1t is just floating with the
current, but have never taken good
fish except when my line was quite
slack and the fly floating naturally
with the current What Is known as
the drag also destroys any chance
of rise, but this is not always the
fault of the angler. 1t must be avoid
ed If possible. and the only remedy |
can prescribe is practice. II cast
should be bungled, don't become
exasperated and snatch the leader and
fly off the water in disgust-you court
disaster when this Is done, for the
chances are better than even that you
will hang up good and fast in some tree
behind you. Permit the fly to drift
downstream until it reaches a point
nearly opposite you. and then retrieve,
and the danger of soaring fish that
you might get on the next cast is
minimiZed.
1.-THE fly should rest on the surface
for but an instant. then be lightly
whisked off and false cast or two
made in the air to dry 1t before drop
ping it again on the water. Each cast
must count! II the point of the rod Is
raised gently at the end OF the cast,
just before the fly alights, and this
elevation continued afterward. the
leader will be kept out of water. and
the danger of drowning the fly, |. g.,
drenching it. will be avoided. Care
must be taken, however. not to make
this action too quick. or motion will
be impaired to the fly which Is as
unnatural as that caused by the
drag"

A corporation with which A. P.
Heinze, of New York, was connected
was being investigated by the grand
jury few weeks ago, and the head
bookkeeper was suppoenaed as a wit
ness. Heinze induced the bookkeeper
to leave town, and for doing SO was
convicted of contempt of court and SEN
fenced to ten days in Jail. While in
jail he was allowed to fit up his cell in
the most luxurious manner with expen-
sive rugs, easy chairs, books, pictures,
ETC., and he was served with elaborate
meals.
This too common custom of catering
and pandering to the wealthy criminal
is disgusting and disheartening. Not

The poor devil who is practically forced
by poverty to commit petty crime is
summarily and harshly dealt with,
while the rich criminal either escapes
through some technicality or is given a
ridiculously light sentence. We are
not complaining on behalf of the poor
criminal; probably in most cases he gets
what is properly coming.to him; but the
same sort of punishment should be
melted out to the rich criminal, and in
amount proportional to the crime.
Ten days in Jail may be proper pun
ishment for the man who steals loaf
of bread or a pound of meat, but if so,
Heinze deserved ten years or more for
the heinous crime against justice which
he committed.

Over in st. Paul they are having a

the theological discussion in Ladysmith.
A gentleman named Moak (perhaps it
should be spelled moke) proposes to es-
tablish home for stray cats and dogs,
and is warmly and vociferously sup
ported by many sentimental souls. On
the other hand, many less emotional
people assert that efforts should be de-

feeling was growing that to make

Her pies were always rich. and she

but there is no reason why the average

dents and the faculty of the institution
to abolish hazing. So successfully has
this agreement been carried out by the
students, that there has not been sim

The complete suppression OF all forms

His Paper Made Official Organ Of Min
ncsota Federation.

nC30ta VeCcT0tioU
At the recent convention Of the Min
nesota State Federation of Labor the
Minnesota Union Advocate. published
in st. Paul. Cornelius Quincy editor.
was unanimously chosen rs the official
organ of the federation. an honor not
to be lightly esteemed. But. apart from
this aud what must have been pecul-
iarly gratifying to Mr.. Quincy. was the
fact that the motion to select his paper
as the official organ was made by a
rival. Editor J. T.. Kennedy of the La
Dor Review of Minneapolis. Further.
the motion was seconded by Editor
McEwen of the Labor World Of Du-
luth. Truly honors fell thick and fast
on the head Of Editor Quincy from
the hands of his rival quill pushers. 1t
is sincerely to be hoped that it will
not result in an undue enlargement Of
his bump Of self esteem. However. It
is safe to predict that such will not be
the case. Labor editors are too busy
with the real problems OF life to afford
the time for nonsense.
Editor Quincy is to be congratulated
on the place he has won in the hearts
Of bis fellow men in Minnesota and
elsewhere. His was an honor as
worthily won as bestowed. Likewise.
Editors Kennedy and McEwen are to be
congratulated. Their action breathes
that spirit Of unseltshness and devo-
ton to the cause without which the
labor movement would never have
reached its high estate. The reason
for the growth Of trade unionism in
the Minnesota jurisdiction is explained
and made clear
