place tarpon fishing for ever In a class
by itself.
The photographs present this royal
fish as he appears when playing the
game with his human adversary. They
were taken during two summer
months spent on the Gulf coast OF
Florida by the camera man and the
scribe-two months which gave daily
proof that of sports that thrill there
are few on earth like fishing for tar
pom. We followed them with fly rods.
with heavy tarpon rods, and with hand
lines. We were fast to 3S4 tarpon,
of which GO were on an eight-ounce
fly rod. We killed none, although a
few were seized and swallowed by
big sharks while being played.
In fishing for pleasure the sports
man usually keeps within from 20 to
100 yards of the tarpon as he plays
him. AS we we're fishing for the cam
era, a long-range contest was useless.
and we fought the fish fiercely from
the time they struck. We smashed
five heavy tarpon rods and broke
lines that would each sustain over 60
pounds. We held our canoe as near
the tarpon as possible. and as soon as
he seemed tired, pulled 1t beside him
and took the hook from his mouth.
Sometimes we found this exciting
The avoirdupois of the fish caught
varied from one and half pounds
each to more than one hundred times
that weight, while their length ranged
from eighteen inches to over six and
a half feet.
From Charlotte Harbor to Cape Sa-
BILE we exploited the tarpon fishing
grounds; we captured them in the
Gulf of Mexico while white-capped
waves spilled water over US, and we
were towed by them through narrow,
overgrown creeks. where sometimes
our quarry escaped us by leaping into
the thick bushes over our heads The
tarpon can be played gently from a
light-running reel for hours. or he can
be fought furiously and made to leap
wildly around. beside. over, and even
into the boat of the fisherman. Small
tarpon, weighing from two to fifteen
pounds, are found In fresh water in
creeks and pools near the heads OF
rivers. Larger fish, of from 20 to SO
pounds. choose the brackish water OF
streams near the Gulf; while the real
" big fish, weighing from so to 200
pounds, are more frequently caught in
the big passes or near the mouths OF
large rivers.

Folk VIII Run for Senate.

Jefferson City.-Joseph W. Folk Of
st. Louis. when here recently, told Of
ficials he would be a candidate for
United States senator against William
]. Stone in 1914. This was the first
announcement from Folk that he
would run.
While several have been mentioned
for United States senator on the Dem
ccratic side, the race may simmer
down to Folk and Stone. The nom
nations will be made at the August
primary, according to a ruling by Gov.
Major. The election will be by direct
vote of the people in November, in
compliance with the new federal
amendment.
Attorney General Barker, who has
zen mentioned as probable candidate,
stated positively he win not be a an.
didate. He says his aim is to serve
his term out as attorney general and
go to Kansas City or st. Louis to prac-
tice law. However, it is thought no
may run for governor.
