Plympton is understood to have been
based chiefly upon the fact that
Plympton worked hard for the NOM
ination of Oscar Underwood at the
Florida primaries, and held out for
Underwocd's nomination at the Bal
timore convention, in pursuance Of
the instruction of the Florida peo-
pie.
The refusal to appoint Underwood
men by the postoffice departn ent is
beginning to Re very sore spot
among many members of the House
Of Representatives, and it Is prob
able that the question will be
brought to the attention Of the ad-
ministration in some manner upon
the floor of the House.

40,000-POUND FISH
IS NOW IN WASHINGTON

Washington, July 26. Fish
stories may go and fish stories may
come. but the piscatorial yarn re-
lated by Capt. Charles II. Thomp-
son, a sea beaten mariner of Miami,
Fla, makes all others appear like
a bush league alongside of Ty Cobb.
Said fish was right in the midst of
Washington for more than five
months while Washingtonian, j.
S. Warmbeth, mounted it.
AS Capt. Thompson, in company
with W. /. Brooks, Cleveland
lawyer, and a Norwegian sailor.
were cruising off the coast of MI
ami, Fla, on June /, 1912, there
hove into sight a huge monster, the
like of which man never before had
laid eyes upon. A mighty struggle
for supremacy ensued and man was
declared the victor.
Five harpoons and 151 bullets
were required to subdue the mon
ster, and 1t took five days to kill It.
Before 1t was under control It
smashed boat into thousands Of
pieces and knocked the rudder and
propeller of a thirty-tOn yacht.
The crew was towed around the
ocean for thirty-ni1e hours by tho
at speed of about fcrty-
five miles an hour. When 1t was
finally brought into shore more than
1000 people were on the steamship
ways at the yards Of the Miami
Yacht and Machine Co. City off,
cials, judges, ministers, the chief Of
police, bankers, and the greater part
Of the population OF Miami will
vouch for the story, according to
the captain.
A huge picture Of the creature
was presented to Secretary OF State
Bryan yesterday by T. d. Dunn,
who, In partnership with Capt.
Thompson, is exhibiting the fish"
1t Atlantic City. The commoner
las winter home at Miami, and
las seen the monster many times
,efore it was transported.
Attempts to classify 1t have been
made In the Smithsonian Institu-
ion, but SO far all have proved fu-
lie. II weighs 10000 pounds, 10
IS feet long, % feet 9 inches wide
nd 43 inches deep, and a tongue
10 inches long. 1t has several thou
and teeth. An animal weighing
500 pounds las taken from Ito
tomach. It's liver tipped the beam
t LOO pounds.
The monster had all the char
cteristics of both fish an animal,

rom tip to tip. A PICTORIAL fin ID
feet long and feet wide, and
orsa, fn feet long and 2 feet
lches wide. Its hide is 3 inches
lick and has no scales, resembling
lat of an elephants coat.
A remarkable tale OF the briny
eep related by Capt, Thompson is
lat concerning shark captured
7 the coast of Florida. A harpoon
as thrown at shark which failed
move after the first thrust. In
,stigation failod to reveal any otn-
wound than the gingle one IN
cted by the harpoon, ordinarily
II enough to kill shark. Tne
,dy was opened and a barrel was
uni on the inside. Inside tns
rrel was found an enormous
antit7 of fresh fish. Apparently
q fish had died of starvation.

Tallahassee, July 26. In connec-
tion with the idea of the last Leg
islature to create a State prison
farm On property long held by the
State for that purpose, three men,
bers of Governor Tramnell's cabi-
ne will make tour Of number Of
Southern States to study prison
farm methods in those States. Sec
retary Of Agriculture McRae and
State Treasurer Luning have left
Tallahassee to cause an inspection
Of State prison farms in tie States
of South and North Carolina, Missis-
sippi and Louisiana. The party will
be Joined b Attorney General

Mississippi and in Louisiana the
party will be augmented by the ar
rival Of the newly appointed Shell
Fish Commissioner T. R. Hodges
and Peres McDougal, chief clerk in
the fish commissioners Office. The
latter two 60 to Louisiana to study
the practices of the Louisiana Shell
Fish Commission.
The State owns tract OF land
some twenty thousand acres In area
in Bradford county that Is available
for the location of a State prison
farm for those State prisoners who
are not physically fit to beleased. 1t
is the intention of the State to de-
velop q most model farm, combining
the best features found In those Wis
tied by the inspection party. Only
the less sturdy male prisoners and
the female prisoners will be sent
to the farm and 1t is expected that
same will be operated at no loss to
the State. The Legislature appro-
priated the sum of thirty thousand
dollars for the establishment OF such
q farm.
