HIS QUEER CATCH
And Garbage Master Was Not
Fishing, at That.
Old Copy Reader Ransaeks HIs Mind
for Most Unique Story He Can
Recall. and Here Is the
Result He Achieved.

The Oldest copy reader on the pa
per grew reminiscent.
"In all the thousands Of stories for
the paper I have read. how many
unique ones have / found7 Well, l
can give you one that stands out In
my memory. sharply defined, without a
flaw.
'It is about the ssrengest FISH that
was ever caught In Sheepshead bay.
II was about the time that motor
boats were first being built, and risky
things they were. too. In those days.
Well, there was q certain young man
about Broadway whose boast wal that
he would try anything once.
He had tried automobiles and had
had considerable success In finding out
what happened to them when they ran
into brick walls. telegraph poles and
other things like that. SO he decided
to try motorboats. too.
HE did. and never tried anything
after that. He gathered q jolly little
party, packed a jolly little luncheon
and of from shore they set In q cocky
little motorboat, out into the middle Of
Sheepshead bay. There came a heavy
squall. the boat upset and several OF
the happy throng were drowned, the
gay young man Included. Now. here's
the meat of the yarn:
The prettiest girl in the party was
also the gayest. Her French heels
were the highest and her big, fappy
hat was the biggest and the fappiest.
Well. she went down. down into
Sheepshead bay and drank more wa
ter In five minutes than she had In as
many years.
when she came up for the third
time she grabbed an empty floating
box and chung to 1t until sh grew too
weak. Down she went. Night fell.
Now a tug came pufang and snort

equipped with hinged bottoms which

was watching to see that nothing
broke loose In the squall.
Suddenly he heard a squeak, shrill
and uneanny. He investigated. And
inside his opened-up garbage seow.
clinging desperately to the chains that
swing open and shut the container Of
garbage was what had been a glorious
creature in picture hat, French heels
and other furbelows. The garbage
master was a brave man. but this ap-
palled him. His nerve won, however.
and he hauled the miracle to what
deck there was, and she survived and
revived.
"What had happened was that the
beautiful lady had been drawn down
into the water again, but had once
more come to the surface just as the
scow passed over her and she had
come up inside. She had life enough
and sense enough to grasp anything
tangible. that being in this cas- a slip

try to shrek. The squeak she emitted
saved her life."

the young woman manages to make
as many as 1900 doughnuts a day.
