I saw him move like a wrath up into
the bow and peer ahead. Suddenly he
shouted: Eyes, sir! There's something
out there. I can hear the chugging Of
an oar!"
Full astern!" ordered.
The vessel shook as the engines went
astern, and soon she lay dead in the
seaway, rolling and creaking to the
swell. On the bridge we were all ears,
and I had cautioned the lookout man to
keep his eyes skinned.
After what seemed hours, he shouted:
There's small dory coming alongside.
There's men in it, sir"
TWO fishermen were hoisted from that
dory with ropes around their waists
because they were too weak to climb the
Jacobs ladder. They had lost their
vessel in the fog and for three days they
had rowed around in circles until the
cold had chilled the marrow in their
bones and they had been content to
drift.
"It's lucky for you the ships cat heard
you hollering," said to them when they
were comfortably settled in the saloon.
But for him we would have passed
you by"
The men looked at each other; then
one of them shook his head and said:
I'VE didn't shout, sir. We shouted our
selves hoarse yesterday. The cat must
have smelled the fish. The dory was
half full"
Maybe so, thought. But knew, deep
down in my heart, that it was not SO.
Something other than fish, some un-
canny intuition had informed Old One
eye that the men were out there in the
fog, and he had mewed, perhaps against
his will. did not argue with the men.
concluded, as walked back toward the
bridge. that it did not matter one way
or another what it was. He had saved
them. That was enough!
l am told emphatically, by men,
mostly, that cats are selfish and have
no affection. I admit that they are not
demonstrative. But is not that due to
the fact that they have always been

been teased at every opportunity. Tin
cans have been tied to their tails and,
even today, dogs are encouraged to chase

ness of their natures from inquiSitive

them whenever you can, and you will
be surprised at the affection which will

We have a cat at the beach. A few
months ago it came to our door one
wet day and my wife, who has never
been able to tolerate cat in the room
with her, took it in. When I returned
from a voyage and saw it for the first
time asked her why she had changed

OUT
AS Bic SHOT

NEW YORK, Aug. 10. - The
New Deal has finally got around
to the boxing business and in its
cyclonic wake left the shriveled
remains of what had once been
nationally known as the James
j. Johnston influence.
In the most sensational meet
ing of recent years, the new
commissioner, William ]. Brown,
warned Charlie Johnston and
James j. Johnston, jr., against
mixing matchmaking with man.
agement of boxers. Charlie is
the brother of the matchmaker
Of Madison Square Garden and
James, jr., is his son.
The JohnstonS were questioned
Simultaneously. with Lou Farber
and Pete SanStal, boxers, but all
concerned denied they were con-
nected in any financial manner.
Charlie Johnston is a wrestling
promoter and James, jr., has been
matchmaker at the st. Nick
Rink.
All concerned were notified
that future matches would be
closely watched and that licenses
would be permanently revoked if
the commission discovered any
illegal affiliation between the
quartet.
Brown told newspaper men:
"This thing has got to be
stopped. 1 hear nothing else
but matchmakers being in on
fighters and fighters being tied
up with matchmakers. 1t is
time to stop whispering and
start shouting. We're going to
bring this out in the Open."
It is an open secret that James
A. Farley, once Johnston's closest
friend, now barely mods as they
pass by. Farley had most to say
about the appointment Of General
John j. Phelan, now chairman of
the commission, and D. Walker
Wear, another new member.

Jersey doing surf and still fish
ing in Barnegat Bay.
81 was greatly impressed by
methods of fishing for the blues
and trout in the Chesapeake as
compared with those employed
in New Jersey. One similarity
exists, however, and that is,
that in seeking blues the best
bait Is alewiveS, or, as called
farther north, mOSS-b -bunkerS.
Cumming with this bait will
surely attract blues.
"The difference lies in the
fact that in New Jersey one
never fishes on bottom for blues
or trout (weakfish in New Jer-
Sey) in the bay.
RECORD CATCH OF TROUT
Fishing out of ParkertOwn,
N. j., 1 was fortunate in being
a member of the party making
the record catch of the past
season. We caught 80 trout.
Our bait was small, live shrimp
which we used for 'chum' and
on our hooks. No sinkers were
used, our bait drifting away with
the 'chum.'
"Of course, there was some
tide running and as it increased
a small amount of lead was put
on, but only enough to keep
our bait under the surface two
or three feet. Likewise for blue
fishing.
"Tast summer I fished with
a popular captain in Chesa-
peake Bay and after we had
fiShed without luck on the bot
tom, / took off all lead and
Immediately started what
turned out to be fine catch
of blues. We were at Bloody
Point.
My belief is that while
cumming try to keep your bait
in the chum and the only time
/ use heavy lead is when the
tide is not running at Ill and
the chum is dropping straight
to the bottom.
"The above captain had
never heard of fishing on top
for blues.
7 am going to try my luck
in a few days but I'm wait
ing until the blues and trout
are really in"

TO THE PEOPLE OF JUNEAU:

TO HE PEOPIE OF JUNEAU.
 Notwithstanding the fact that SINS OF LOVE" now showing at the Coliseum has broken all house records and has played to more people than any other attraction shown here in over three years have induced the company to hold over for one day more. To the few, remaining, who have not seen "Sins of Love" I guarantee you will not only be entertained but you will take something home with you-a new idea or new attitude towards marital and social rela- tionship which, in value, is out of all proportion to the admission price. The lecture, by the excep- tional Mrs. Helene Burke, alone is worth double the admission. I do not defend the title of the show Personally, I think it is terrible and in bad taste but I can say to the timid or the prudish-don't let the title stop you. There is nothing lurid about the show
