A ffsh story guaranteed to be

with rifles, machine guns and can
non. is related by Mrs. Ellen Ches-
Ger of Colon. Panama, to her faith
er. DIR. J. r. Freeman OF Moline.
The whale fioundeTed on sand
bar IN Colon harbor. Just as ship
would founder. and like ship the
task OF removing It was mann
moth one. So was the business of
killing the fish. Here Is the story
as told by Mrs, Chester:
Last week whale OF q fish
sauntered through the breakwater
down the main channel into the
timer harbor, and finally got into
shallow water near the coaling sta
ton and became stuck on the sea
bottom. 1t looked Just like big
ship running aground.
Two canal pilots were the {
to see the animal and they pu,
claim on il The next day theN hir-
ed derricks and tug boats, towed
the whale to a side OF a pier and
tried to hoist him out OF the water
onto a fat railroad car. But they
seemed unable to get a derrick
strong enough to hoist the whale
out of the water.
"As soon as It became known
that the whale was stuck in the
mud, people by the thousands went
TO see IL At once the question
came up: How were they to kill
the fish? To tab It with a big
knife did no good. Then the whole
Cfristobel rife club went down to
the place where the helpless whale
WIS stuck and began to shoot at it.
That did not face the fish any more
than If / had stuck it with a pin.
Then they brought a machine
gun and began blazing away at the
unhappy fish That did not faze
it Then they brought a small gun,
firing a one-pound shell, and be-
gan a terrific bombardment of the
whale That was effective and put
him out of business. In other
words, the whale died as the result
OF some wounds inflicted by the
small cannon.

ON the fish thought they would
make fortune selling whale meat,
