A Land of Faery
A most marvellous sunset this eve-
ming, outside the Bah Djedid. The
vast plain in It's arid desolation gave
the impression of a desert, flooded
with the gold light of the level sun.
The clouds hung over the mauve
mountains Of Trozza and Serdj, i'm
pregnated with purple and trimmed
with bright gold. 1t was a land of
faery, dissolving under the enchant-
ment of the sun, whose power drew
forth such fantasies in blue, red
green and yellow. Behind us lay the
walls of the city, In the rosy light of
evening, which fell upon towers and
cupolas. Then In the still air, as the
world faded under an emerald sky
came the clear voice Of the muezzin
calling the faithful to prayer, while
through the gates the shepherds slow
iy led In their flocks.-F'rom the Diary
of RuSSelt Raracford

MENACES COUNSEL
WITH SUSPENSION
Judge in Libel Suit Warns De-
fenSe Lawyer. Follow
ing Speeches.
Ry 'he Associated Press.


CoBoURG, Ontario. April 81
Threat of suspension from active par
ticipation in the trial hovered yesterday
over Frank Regan, chief counsel tor w
r. II. Preston and F. w. Wilson. in the
$4,000 libel suit brought against the
two newspaper men by Gen. Sir Arthur
Currie.
Regan. who had been rebuked several
times by Justice Rose for remarks IN
court. protested against what he termed
the war college" at a hotel where
many Of the former soldiers who are
witnesses in the case are staying, He
said he objected 10 witnesses being put
through lecture at the war college
before coming into court tO testify
IF YOU will persist" Justice Rose told
him. "in making these Irregular and un-
authorized speeches. !. instead of Scold-
ing YOU. shall have TO ask one Of the
other counsel Of your side to take up
the case.
Regan was rebuked again after he
ha0 told Lieut.. Milton Fowler Gregg
holder of the Victoria Cross and other
medals. that he was "a pretty good man
for an adjutant" Gregg had declined
TO express an opinion as 10 the JUSTIN
cation of fighting by the Canadians after
the armiStice had been signed. Justice
Rose suggested that some witnesses had
earned immunity" from such remarks.
The testimony. chiefly from former
members Of the famous Princess Pats,
bore upon the contention in an article
written by Preston and published in
Wilson'S paper that Canadian lives
were sacrificed in an attack on Mons
on Armistice day for the glorification
Of the Canadian high command. The
suit was based upon this article.
The witnesses agreed that there had
been no attack on Mons that day. be-
cause, as one Of them expressed it, there
had been nobody to attack" since the

HOOVER FACES TEST
AS SEA ANGLER
Florida Fishermen Say Presi.
dent-EIect Will Meet
New Conditions.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MIAMI, Fla, December ia lusty
grip. a set of steady nerves and the
ability to suppress excitement are just
a few of the qualities that President
elect Herbert Hoover will need when he
makes his bow as deep-sea angler in
the Gulf Stream while visiting in
Florida.
This. in substance, is the collective
view of 20 to 80 shippers of the fishing
feet here, whose daily lot Is cast with
the fighters of the sea.
Herbert Hoover, they have been told,
is a veteran of the fresh water rod and
reel-a far cry from the adult-Sized
equipment the Gulf Stream fisherman
uses to tackle the crafty, hard-hitting
sailfish, the swift-darting marlin sword
fish. the vicious barracuda and the deep
diving tuna and grouper.
Hoover probably has enough expe-
rience to remember the flrSt requisite
is to keep COOL" says Capt Bobby
Byrnes, veteran guide who has served
many men of public note. He will find,
however, a different type of fight than
that of trout or bass. A sailf1sh can
not be bulldogged. If it strikes and is
hooked it requires skill and patience.
strength and craft. Hoover will need TO
know the trick of hooking sailflsh,
which always strikes twice and is never
hooked on the first"
"Mr. Hoover" believes Capt. G. M.
Stevens, another veteran fisherman,
''only needs to become accustomed to
the difference in fighting a deep-sea
fish. He may be amazed at the speed
of deep-sea angling, but with his expe-
rience he should give a nice account Of
himself. Strength and endurance count
heavily. Hoover is strong and is cool
in crisis. He will lose few fish If he
follows his natural bent"
Capt. Fred Hutter, a veteran of many
years experience, thinks Hoover will
find such a wide variety of fish here
that he will get different type each
day. I think he'll like the sail for game
and the marlin for sheer fight"
Hoover is good fisherman and
good seaman" says Capt. william Pa
lastneck. guide for Herbert Hoover three
years ago at Key West and guide to
Frank B. Kellogg, Secretary Of State.
He can stand rough weather, knows
what a.. big one will do and never tires.
He's fond of fishing and can take
advice
Capt. Harry Coons of the yacht Eagle
Eye thinks Hoover will get a thrill in
the Gulf Stream. They strike like
falling bowlders," Capt. Coons says.
Capt. William Gilbert, a guide of 18
years experience, hopes Hoover has not
the same notions of fishing as Mr.. Cool
idge, who described it as "child's play"
Fishing here is not 'child's play"
Capt. Gilbert holds. "If anything, it
is mans job to hook and land these
monsters of the sea-"
