FRENCH FISH STORY.
Three Days Carnival of Marpiqnon's
 Intrepid AnuIers.


 Though their lakes and ponds are 1ew and their rivers comparatively destitute of fish, the French people are extremely fond of angling. Indeed, nervous and excitable as the average frenchman may be, he is content to sit by a stream with pole and wait all day for bite
 ln certain country town not far rom Paris there existed a fishing club named the Intrepid Fishers of Marni gnon. A pretty stream goes through Maip1gnon. but for many years not one fish had been seen in this stream. 1fol1 " hich circumstance, it followed. the Intrepid Fishers had little to do. says 41arpCr's Weekly.
 The excitement may be imagined, therefore. when the word ran through Aafpl@non that large barbel-a tough and samy fish-had been seen Tn the stream. The Intrepid Fishers turned out and. having ascertained that there was indeed barbel in the stream, immediately stopped the wa ter some little distance above and be. low him with gratinss so that he could not get away.
 Then they ranged themselves joy fully along the stream with hook and line. and all went to fishing for the one fish.
 By and by one Intrepid Fisher caught him and immediately threw him back into the water In the course of time another caught him and did the same.
 For three days one veracious ac- count has it the Intrepid Fishers kept at work catching this one barbel, and at the end of that time the fish died of exhaustion and loss of blood. Then the Intrepid Fishers counted up the notches that they had made on their fish poles. and the man who had caught the barbel the most times was declared the champion fisherman of Narpignon and received great honors
