THE MACON TELEGRAPH: THURSDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 4, 1894. THE SHOVEL • GAT-FISH. Found in the Mississippi River and its Tributaries—He Is Very Queer, BUT FURNISHES GOOD SPORT Leoks *nd Behavior noth Oat of Hi* Ordinary—A Mlaaonrl fio/’i linear Experience With Thee# Peculiar Pith. “No queerer fish swims, "exclaimed the TAH*MlM»onrlnn who wa« talking fish and flehlng in tho ofllco of ono of tho down town hotel* f ho other evening, "ami no Hah that will give o more furiona fun for i»n hour or so than our homely old shovel fdt »'f I N*r: t "In oil tho crocks and branches trlbu* Imy In tho Mimiesippl nrid Ali»»ourl 0110 may catch tills awkward, heavy flab, and If ono bo only out fur exits alone Jiu will give rare sort, Jiut to tho crapplu fisher* man ho is a great nuisance, stealing tho bait as fast as it can lx> put on tho hook and seldom allowing himself to be hooked. Despite his clumsy Bliopo ho is Agile to a remarkable degree. ••From a side view tho flab in not un* gmeeful, Us long brood now showing an edgn and appearing am slender as n sword- fish's weapon.. His tail 1h sharply forked, and his fins large and of rakish out. Ho often attain* a length of 0 foot and weighs as much ns &0 pounds. A strati* ger whoso dugout lias drifted Into siionl water or up into olio of tho shallow bayous ■where ho !h angling fof crnpplo, vdll sud denly bo startled by a loud splash hard by, and if ho Is quick enough ho muy turn and catch a glimpse of a shovel cat at work. 'Tho great fish will throw Its entire body out of water, doublo over in midair and descend headforemost, llko n professional diver. Ho is feeding, and us ho lives mostly upon tho tiny anlrnnlcuJro and creeping things hidden In tbu soft, muddy bottom this leap is necessary to give him impetus enough to innko tho deep plunge. He drives Ills wldo shovel far into tho mud, and, turning up n long furrow, eatches whatever food is washed out in tho proc CM. “On a light rod ono of tho big fellows Will glvo a lively tussle, but It requires tho patlcnco of n Job and tho enthusiasm of an Iko Walton to sit a whole afternoon and broil under a hot Mississippi sun in tho dreary hopo of hooking a cat. Tho fish are -too tick loin biting to furnish reliable sport in that way, and tho market flibormim generally resort to nets to Insure a catch. “Hut tho real hair raidng, lino stretch* Jng, bubblo tossing fun Is spearing. Wo used to always choose a gray day, when tho sky was overc ast nml no onsets blowing do rufilo tho biirfaco of tho water. TwoOi us would set out for tho branch about two hours before sunset, armed with a short komemndu harpoon, consisting of a steel (barbed head loosely wt in a Hickory shaft.

Arriving at tho bank of tho crook, wo would cut oil a cottonwood limb to lash lo tho end of our line, to net n« a float if wo lmd tb Jot the Whole buMlmwj go overboard. Then ot»p would paddlo tho dugout while tho other stood In tho bow watch lug for tho shovel* ora. Of course wo had to hunt only in tho tJmllows, not only because tho Huh wero more plentiful there, but because tbs spear was uncertain In moro than fuur or live foot of water. When wo had located our victim, who would bo turning splashing somersaults far ahead, tho man nt the pad dles would make for tho .spot where tho ■border lost wont dow*n. Tho gpoartmao, ini ring ahead, could dimly mnko out tho hup fellow at his mud plowing toll and waiting until lio was fairly over his prey Would send tho steel a -whirling. “What a foam of yellow mud than, and If ho had struok a big ono how our leaky old dugout would roll and jump ns wo were dragged up creek by tho mad tlioroler. Tho flurry Is short, howovor, for tho steel soon exhausts tho energy and courage of the fish.

The Kleotrlo Bullet Finder auOJta Mods . of Operation. Tho electric tullct finder, or probe, an Invention of Dr. John II. Glrdnor of Now York, consists of nn ordlmtry telephone iwdvor, nn ordinary metal proha' nml nn extm bulb of tho snmo mctnl that tho probo Is nmdu of. Inasmuch os there is no battery connected with tlio nppnratus “ ’"ay puzxlo even nn cketrlclau to ilia* r wherein tho electrical element lies. Just hero is where tho irstrumentassumes its truly sclentlflo aspect, for its invention proven that thero is n definite quantity of •loctrlclty in tho battery which supplies tho current. Dr. Glrdnor lmd tried for years to dcvlso Wrtno surer means of locating bullets than wns possible with tho onlinnry probe. Somo years ago aomebody had invented nn cloctrlo bullet probe which depended on a battery cell to supply tho current. Bat tho trouble was that us soon tut tho end of tho probo was inserted in tho flesh An elec tric circuit would bo established through tho Uesh Itself, and the electric bell would ring. So it was not known whether a bullet bad boon touched or not. Ono night it occurred to Dr. Gird tier that tho lx>dy itself might contain enough of a current to opernto iv bell or a tolo* phono receiver. Experiment proved tho fact. Tho principle of tho inbtrmncnt Is as follows: Tho mctnl bulb is placed In tho wounded person'll mouth. Tho tclo- phono reoelvor is held to tho Burgtsm'rt ear aud the prolio lu tho hoio mado by tho bullet. Tho bulb in tho mouth and the probo a iv mado of tho some metal, copper being preferred, nnd because they arc tho same no manifestation is heard iu tho telephone. But us soon ns tho leaden bullot is touchtd it brings another metal into tho circuit. Tho human body then immediately becomes ono immeuso cell, which gvncmicft a current strong enough toopemto tho telephone, so that as soon ns tho bullet in touctud a click is board in the telephone, nnd tho location of the bul let in i^tublislicd beyond udoubt,—-Boston Transcript.
