Turtle CAUGHT With Light Rod.

L. l.. Bets, John Miller and H. l.
Saxon made one OF the most remark
able fishing catches recently ever
recorded. The gentlemen went out
on the yacht La Poupee and while
trolling about Mr.. Belts hooked into
a $50 pound loggerhead turtle.
The monster put up a game fight
and for fully two hours 1t was nip
and tuck between turtle and man,
but the man triumphed, as nearly al
ways he does. and his turtleship was
hauled aboard and brought to port.
The capture OF the turtle is remark
able, first, because they seldom take
hook and second, because Mr.. Belts
had only a light rod and reel and
slender tackle and was not prepared
to undertake such "killing." 1t was
skilled manipulation OF the reel more
than anything else that made the
capture OF the turtle possiole.-Mi
