THE BIG FAIR AT LEWISTON.

The Lewiston Charleston Tri-Statc
Fair win be held in Lewiston this year
September ola inclusive. The plans
for this years fair call for somewhat
changed and varied program. The &c
ton of state officials in prohibiting
exhibitions of livestock necessitated
the cancelling of the livestock features
at the Lewiston show, but additional
labor and expense win provide an ex
ceptional agricultural and horticultur-
al exhibit.
The entertainment program Will in
clude an unusual racing line up. Re
lay races will be daily features while
the auto races and motor style show
promise classic entertainment in their
line. Professional drivers, some OF
them holders of worlds records, and
specially constructed racing cars should
make this part Of the program the best
of its kind ever witnessed in this ter
ritory. Trick and fancy nding for ex-
hibition viii hold a place in each days
events. Other unusual features plan
ned include thrilling balloon ascents
and parachute drops, trapeze and wire
acts and trained animal performance.
A larger and better might show than
ever before staged in Lewiston will be
built around Mann Bros. dancing pa
vilion at Dreamland park. This p 1T
of the program is to Include vaudeville
acts of merit, an elaborate fashion
show. sensational rides, and shows.
Dancing to Mann Brothers orchestra
will be nightly feature.

interest at heart, Rev. Hoffman holds
favor at Culdesac as he does at Nez-

each place the past year, and while
either point would rather have him in
continuous service, the available fin

WHERE HOOKED FISH
rs PREY or OTHERS
Anglers in Gulf Stream Of
ten Find Catch is Robbed

Visitors In Florida send numerous
big fish stories back to the homefolk,
and In many cases the homefolk are
inclined TO sniff. No shifting lis called
for. Inland residents can hardly real
lie the abundance of fish In the warm
waters of the ocean.
Along all the ocean front of the
southern resort cities motor boats 20
or rs feet long can be hired with the
skipper and tackle and bait for about
$25 day to go out toward the Gulf
Stream three or four miles to fish.
The shippers know where the fish
are TO be found. The visitor nicely
specifies the fish he wishes to Glitch.
In an hour the boat can be ct the
fishing grounds.
A strip of fish is put on the hook
and the motor boat moves along slow
ly. The angler may have rs or 100
feet of line out, and he wonders how
he can tell when he gets a bite, with
the boat rising and falling on the
waves. Sea fish are game fish. When
one strikes, the angler gets the idea
that his hook has suddenly caught on.
a submerged log, so fierce is the tug.
He has hooked kingfish, variety
of the mackerel. The line is reeled
in. Suddenly the fish has another
idea. and away he goes for fifty feet
or so. In comes the fish again. Mean
while the boat owner, who usually
keeps all but one of the fish and sells
them, maneuvers the boat to aid the
angler In perhaps five or six minutes
the fish is tired, but still struggling.
The angler gets the fish close enough
to see that he is pretty fair size.
He begins to wonder what will hap
pen when he is brought closer to the
boat. Then the line goes slack and
Is pulled In easily.
Some larger fish has rushed up to
the hooked kingfish and taken bite
at him, leaving little more than the
head and shoulders on the line. This
Is quite common. One man who was
out three hours on rough day of |
Miami says that he hooked eight king
fish, but two of them were bitten In
two and another one was seized by
barracuda, porpoise or some other
bigger fish, and carried out to sea 200 I
feet. The bigger fish, grouper, sail
fish and amberjack and sharks, are
caught farther away from the shore.
But any southern water fish tale is
likely to resist the efforts of the most |
proficient liar in simplifying it.-IndI-
