MONSTER OF SEA
FIGHTS ITS CAPTORS
657-POUND HORSE MACKEREL.
BIGGEST KNOWN TO FISH
ERMEN, SMASHES BOATS.

AS result of three hours battle
VITA monster horse mackerel, while
fishing three miles off the beach of
Highlands, N. j., West Osborne, Con-
rad Anderson and Charles Wardell,
Sea Bright's leading deep sea fisher
men, are minus their nets, and in all
probability will not be able to use
their skiffs for some time, says the
New York World.
The huge fish was shared in Os-
borne's net, when the three had tried
their luck in forming a pocket to cor
ner blue and weakfsh. Osborne
thought he had a shark and motioned
to Anderson and Wardell, who were
lying close by, to work in their nets
to keep the big fellow from escap-
ing, because the price paid for sharks
on the beach is generous.
The two remaining fishermen, in
twenty-five foot skiffs, turned to re-
spective crew men and asked wheth-
er they had better take chances with
the supposed shark? In the mean
time Osborne cried out that the shark
was breaking through his net, and
begged assistance. Immediately the
other two skiffs were brought up and
the nets sent over the port and star
board side.
Dashes OFF With Harpoon.
Calf hooks and shark knives were
brought quickly into play, but a sud-
den leap of the sea monster revealed
horse mackerel was their prey. Os-
borne and the pilots of the other two
, skiffs prepared harpoons and lines,
while the remainder of the crew work
ed the nets in order to kill him and
exhaust the monster. But the swift
ly flowing tide was too much for
them, and the big fellow broke
through the heavy nets. AS he was
about to escape, having ripped the
nets beyond repair, Anderson hurried
his steel harpoon into the ish's side.
The mackereI Immediately went to
the bottom, rested a few minutes,
then dashed to sea for more than
nine miles. Wardell and Osborne tried
to hook on and take up the trail with
Anderson, but their skiffs had been
damaked when the big fellows tail
ripped off part of their sides.
Nevertheless, Anderson trailed be-
hind for nine miles. When he was
about to tie buoy at the end of the
harpoon line, thinking the big fellow
never would give up, he noticed that
the line had taken on slack. Playing
with the mackerel, he worked closer.
The harpoon once again was brought
into play. This time Anderson drove
two into the sides of the fish. They
held with telling effect.
This enabled Anderson and his
crew to use their knives. They gashed

TN THE days that followed Ruth surely
L had Scott all to herself Many times
during the past when she had been hurt
and sore at heart at some little real or
fancied hurt she had wished passion
ately that she could have him all TO
herself. All women have gone througN
this period of emotion. When she ha'
seen him attracted by qualities in othe'
women beside herself, she had long'
to have him alone on a desert islan
where he could see no one but her
Once. although she was ashamed of 1t
and would not have admitted 1t for the
world. she had wondered curiously what
1t would be like to have him untitled
in some way for lifes battle. She had
never thought of this when Scott was
in France. 1t had been after he had
come homo safe, and they had been
married, and she had felt him straining
and chatting at the leash of everyday
marriage that she had wished herceiy
that there were some little thing 10
hold him to her side. How gladly she
would fetch and carry for him, how
wonderfully smooth she would make his
days. She would work. she would slave,
she would do anything to keep her man
for herself alone. And now Scott was
Ill in bed. She had him all to herself,
his six feet of manhood stretched be-
meath the covers, his wealth OF boyish
attractions silenced under his fever. She
had the chance to fetch and carry Tor
him and when his fever left, after the
third day, she found 1t no easy task.

to expect Scott to wake her at 3 O'Clock
