FROGS, LEGS FOR BREAKFAST

Owing to the skill of A. Rainier, A.
Chalifoux and Ben Moffat, these gem
tlemen and some of their friends had
frogs legs for breakfast this morning,
done to turn at the Elks' Grill.
The trio of daring hunters went
forth to the shores of Lake Mirror. at
s o'clock Tuesday night, armed with
a searchlight and long pole to which
was attached a triple hook on a short
wire. The method of procedure was
to locate the froggie and blind him
at the same time by means of the
searchlight, while the triple hook un-
der his chin snatched him into cap
tivity.
A dozen or so fine, plump specimens
were secured in this manner. OF
course the largest one got away. He
was either four or two inches between
the eyes, according to Mr. Rahner's
careful estimate, and an expedition
will be organized shortly for the ex-
press purpose of securing this king of
all Lake Mirror frogs.
