Norwich Policemen and Fishing.

Many a queer yarn has come out of N orwich but the one that tells of a. member of the police force catching eight trout that averaged over q pound apiece, three of them 25. 26 and 26 ounces, respectively. is too. too much: I1l the first place. basket of trout of that size in this part of the world, unless caught out of a, farmers well or a sluiceway where they have been fed like the pigs for five or six years, is just as believable a story of 12-foot shark in Gardner lake. And in the second place, who ever heard of a Norwich policeman catching any thing but a cold ?''-Hartford Courant.
 The ignorance of the Courant re- garding the possibilities of trout fish ing by the man that knows how and where around here and of the abilities Of the Norwich police force is only equaled by the mustiness of that an cient joke with which the above com ment is concluded.

morrow's meeting will be the free
