WRONG IN HIS DIMENSIONS
Inventor Of Fishing Machine Causes
skeptielsm by Referring TO Water
In Terms Of Square Feet"

An enterprising inventor has an.
nounced that he has perfected fish
ing machine capable of removing call
the fish from 100000 square feet
Of water per minute"
The only point Of this announce
ment that offers us any comfort is
the dimensional value given in the
reference to water, says the Boston
Transcript. It seems likely that this
predatory fishing machine may not
be as efficient as it sounds. If this
inventor considers water, as a me-
dium for the support of Psychological
life, in terms Of Square feet" it
does not seem as if he could be a very
practical man, and probably his fish
ing machine is as seriously defective
as Darius Green's flying machine.
Even to sustain goldfish water must
have three dimensions.
IF it were not for this superficial
evidence of error, there might be rea-
son IN feel some alarm over this an
rounoement. AS it is, perhaps there
IS little danger that the waters will
he rendered fshless by any mechani-
'al device in the near future, and for
time we may continue to have some
fun with hooks. line and bait.

HOW lie TURNED THE TABLES
Heted Artist Put lnquisitive Inter
viewer to Flight When He Assumed
Role Of ouessioaer Himself.

A noted artist was recently visited
BY an interviewer, who fred at him
from a question-sheet questions such
as these:
"Were your parents artisticf
Which Of your paintings do you con-
slider your best work? When, where,
and why did you paint it2 How
much did it bring you in? Who is
your favorite dead master? Favorite
living master? What is your income
from art? How much"
But at this point the artist seized
the interviewer by the arm and be-
gan in his turn:
Gust a moment, please. What is
your name, age, and salary? Is jour
nalism with you life-work or mere
ly means to a higher literary end!
How do you like your editor? State
his faults and salary. What was the
best interview you ever wrote? Give
brief summary of same. Have you
! ever been fired? How does it feel
Where"
But here the interviewer, jerking
his arm from the painters grasp,
fled from the studio, and the artist
cheerfully resumed his work.-Pitts-

CURED BY SERVICE IN ARMY
Confederate Veteran, Condemned by
Doctor to Die In Six Months,
Alive and Hearty at ".


4 Git Is curious thing how war serv-
tce has been the making Of many a
man In physical sense" remarked
Mai. w. y. Howard of New Orleans,
a Confederate veteran. "When went
into the Confederate army my doctor
told me that had tuberculosis and
the chances were against my living for
six months longer. / was weak and
emaciated to a painful degree, and I
had not the remotest doubt but that
my doctor had made a true prophecy.
II had made up my mind to join
General Lees army anyway, and, after
the mournful diagnosis of the physi-
clan, was doubly anxious to go to
The front. If l am going to die Of
disease thought /, 1T were just as
well to have my existence terminated
by Yankee bullet 10 and behold !!
here am now a sprlghtly old man Of
sevenfy-segen and with no idea Of
shuffllng Off the mortal coil for at
least another decade. That four years
service In the Confederate army made
me healthy and robust, and my expert
ence was that Of many another weak
ling. Life In the open air and sun
shine beats all the medicine in the
world, and you will find that the boys
who come back from the battlefields
of Europe, If any of them go over
there, will return much better speci-
mems Of physical manhood than when
they went"

Appleby Boys
Both Defeated
At Billiards
Moon and Gershel Upset
Family Combination in
Poggenburg Memorial

There was tremendous billiard
crash in the Appleby family in the
continuation Of the finals for the Pog-
genburg Memorial Cup yesterday.
George T. Moon. jr., of the Class Z
division, started the catastrophe by de
feating Edgar 7. Appleby, of Class A
rating, in the first of the matches de-
cided at Maurice Days Academy. The
30 for Edgar Appleby. Francis :.
Appleby counted only a total of 229,
against the winning score OF 115 for
William Gershel.
Edgar Appleby made a poor begin
ming in his match against Moon.
Toward the end of the contest he did
better. A fine run of 35, his best Of
the match, was the result He had
others of % and % on his string.
Moon put together a cluster of 81 by
breezy balk line; Moons average was
1 1910; Edgar Appleby's 3439.
Francis Appleby was much inclined 20
misjudge distance and direction.
Still, he had seven double figure runs,
with the best at AZ, 30 and %. He fin
ished fairly up to his class rating with
an average of 5-32.
In the night game Claude X. Lewis
G15) defeated Jacob Klinger (250) by
score of l15 to 240. Lews's average
was 4l1-26, his high runs 20. Is and r.
Klinger averaged 9 6-26. His high run
was 20, made in his last inning. A
miscue terminated the run when vic
tory seemed within the grasp of Jacob,
as he needed only ten more points.
Klinger left set-up for Lewis, who
clicked off the dozen points necessary
for victory

Fulton Fouls Morris in Fifth
When on Verge of Knockou

Carl Morris won from Fred Fulton
on foul after about minute OF tight
ing in the ffth round Of their much
heralded bout at the Manhattan A. G..
last night.
The giants were battling head-on in
the centre Of the ring, both fighting
with one arm free, when Fulton shot
two rights TO the stomach. The first
punch was plainly below the belt, but
did not carry the force of the second.
Morris sank slowly TO his knees,
crumpled up and lay sprawled like a
wounded hippopotimus in mid-ring.
Bill Brown, the referee, declared
Fulton had fouled Morris.
The announcement was greeted with
cheers, and Carl was given a great re-
certion as his seconds helped him from
the ring
1t was Fulton's gore that painted both
men in sunset colors. Morris iought
exactly the kind of battle 10 beat Ful-
ton. lie kept on top Of his man every
second and he did terrible execution IN
the clnches. Most of the damage ne
did with vicious uppercuts to the race
but his bull-like head did Fulton al
most as much harm.
Morris left his corner with rush IN
the first round and worked at once to
close quarters, to stay there to the
finish.
Fighting with one arm free. Morris
gave Fulton an awful punching and
Fulton seemed unable to tear himself
free. In the second round his nose
began TO bleed from stiff uppereuts,
and in the third round deep cash was
cut over his left eye, almost binding
him.
Fulton could do nothing TO Offset
Carl's inhghting, and only on the rare
occasions when Brown broke them was
