BIRD AND FISH STORY.
Hinge Bald Eagle and Salmon Hold
Big Fight.

Every man abroad the schooner
Roosevelt, from the master to the
cook in from a recent voyage, said
they saw a huge bald eagle take a
wild ride on a salmon's back in the
stretch Of water between Cape Nudge
and Seymore Narrows, Gulf OF Geor-
gia. And they brought the eagle to
Seattle, Wash, to prove it.
The Roosevelt was on its way to
Seattle from the fishing banks in
Hecate Strait. Shortly after passing
Seymour Narrows members of the
crew said they noticed bald eagle
flying close to the water, near the
vessel. As they watched the big bird
skimming near the surface, spring
salmon, estimated to weigh about 20
pounds leaped clear of the swift NOV
ing current. Quick as a flash the
eagle drove his sharp talons into the
fish's back.
There was a great splash as the
big springer dived, taking the eagle
beneath the surface. All hands rush.
ed to the rail to watch the struggle.
Three times they said, the fish and
the bird disappeared In the water
While the Roosevelt steered course
close behind them.
Finally the eagle loosened his hold
on the salmon and flopped over on
the surface Of the water completely,
exhausted. 1t had put up a game
fight but had lost its prey. The crew
of the Roosevelt pulled the bird
abroad with a bait hook. The eagle
was nearly drowned but on deck 1t
sesn recovered and showed fight.
While the battle between the bird
and the fish was in progress two 9TH
er eagles, the Roosevelt's men said
flew around the vicinity screaming
loudly. Captain Barney Pedersan pre-
sented the captured eagle to one Of
the local public parks.

 Sometimes I wonder what can be the matter with women nowadays. As soon as they get the intellectual germ started, they develop such queer philosophies. And according to so many of these popular pailosophies, they don't have to exert themselves. Maybe that is the charm. They let the other person do it-e yen the think : ing.

 Chrys has taken up Taoism. She wears the oldest silver ring. an image which reaches from knuckle to lznucl1le and she has given up every bit of her 5ewelry, to show off that grotesque image the better.
 From the doctrine of Tao, Chrys has got some new notion about mon as sertion." Daddy thinks she is tired out. this idea of not acting is so un- like her usual line of thought.
