HORSES THAT GO FISHING
North Carolina Catch Fish
at Low Tide.

Along Albemarle sound, on the North
Carolina coast, there is mile after mile
of low, sandy shore, where nothing
grows except a coarse grass, a few
saltwater weeds and wild parsley, says
an exchange. On these banks lives q
strange breed Of half-wild horses,
known as banker ponies" These crea-
lures are generally about twice the
size Of Shetland ponies.
Every year the herd owners drive
the bankers" into pens, brand the
foals with the proper mark, and catch
some of the older animals to sell TO
the dealers. North CarOlinians say
that the beasts must be starved into
eating grain, hay or grass, for they
have always lived on the rank marsh
grass of the marshes and on fish.
They catch the fish themselves at
low tide; with their hOOfs they dig
deep holes in the sand below high wa
ter mark; when the tide falls they
greedily deyOur the fish that are strand
ed in these holes. Often they fight
briskly over an especially tempting
mOrSel.
In captivity these strange horses are
Intelligent, but seldom are even in tenn
per. Once tanned, they make excellent
draft animals. for they have a strength
that is dispropOrti0na1e to their size.
Foals that are bred from bankers in
captivity make valuable animals
strong, healthy, intelligent and far less
vicious than their parents.

Almost all belong TO the intellectual
class. The father OF Chapman, who
died for France at the age of twenty
six, is one of the first writer's Of his
country, and his great-grandfather

republic. Kenneth Weeks, who died
at twenty-six. on June 16, 1915, at
Givenchy. is the author OF Five In

osophy which give the promise Of
master thinker.
Norman Prince belonged to one Of
the richest and most esteemed fam
lilies of Boston. Alan Seeger, died
on July at BellOy-en-Santerre, wrote
some of the finest verse that the war

M Holt, OF Caldwell, candidate for

and state questions. Mr.. Holt scored

said Mr. Holt, are being violated daily
and game is disappearing rapidly in
the mountains of Idaho. The state is

ruthless slaughter of game means that

Holt thought the state had gone back =

been done in the last two years on
the roads of the state also in failure
to build bridges where they are needed
and in stocking the streams with fish.
He characterized President Wilson as
weak and inefficient in his Mexican

Judge Richards followed and for over
an hour held the interested attention
of an audience which comfortably Till

must inevitably take place in the
course of a few years, he would feel
content. That he had part in this
great work is we'll known by the older

Judge Richards took up in time ma

it clear that the United States could
