A Trout That (Had One- Blind Eye The Man Who Could (Charm Frogs With His Fiddle.— Some Whoppers. <r They were having a fish talk in the hot 1 errridor —where the hotel was doesen’t matter —and there was a visible desire in all to tell the best story. “I know a drop iu Turtle river,” said a stout man in the corner, whose eyes had “the fisherman’s twinkle,” in which there is a trout named Abe. When I say ‘is a trout’ I should say was a trout, forthattrout's skin is now stuffed and in my dining room. He weighted eight pounds one and one-third ounces, and I took him on a six ounce rod. “For many years, gentlemen,'’ he went on, “Abe had defied the pro wess of the mighty men with the fishing Hue, and there were some that cast over him who never knew defeat before. He used to lie along side an old log, and the men who tried for Abe east by the log and then drew the flies up alongside the fish. He would always break and look at the flies, but never strike, and as his brown back appeared for a moment the fisher’s heartbeat widly. So far Abe was a success, and he was the most profanity provoking fish I ever knew. Now I felt sure that the capture of that trout was not an impossibility fora man with a good credit at bis bank and a fair reputation in a horse trade, so I spent ore day- watching the other men fail. I then cast my hook to see what luck I would have. He struck at once, but 1 lost him. I said nothing, but sawed wood for two days. The I tried again, and I this time 1 had him. It was a gal lant fight, and after an hour's work he was on on the grass. I found out the reasons of the failures.” “Wfiat was it?’’ asked the gentle man from Darien. ‘■Abe had only one eye, and I had taken him on his blind side.” “A wall eyed trout ain't bad,” be gan a st)anger from Michigan, “but I knew a black bass once that could count.” ‘•Court!" exclaimed the man fron? Darien. “Count,” repeated the gentleman from Michigan gravely. “You know s we have the big and little mouthed I bass, and this was a big mouth. He wasn’t very large, only weighed six pounds.” “Do I understand you to say that a six pound bass is small?” asked the stout man uneasily. “We use ’em for br.it, sir,” replied I the Michigan man firmly. “I do not know whether you gentlemen have ever noticed the powers of the num ber three. The three big waves, the three days of rain, the three great accidents. In my country we have grasshoppers, and if you watch them jump into the water every thi’-d “ grasshopper is larger than the other two. Now this bass used to be found in a pond I know near the fall of a stream. You could recognize him by a white mark onthenoze. If you stood on the bank and threw in grasshoppers he rose to the top every time. I noticed this, and J wanted tc catch that bass; not for his size, but for bis arithmetical at tainments, being myself partial to mathematics. 1 pitched two grasu hoppers and saw them taken by other fish, and then I threw a third, being carefifl to so far follow nature and her laws as to have this one of good size. He took it and with it roy hook.” ‘•Did this college graduate give you much play?” asked the stout man cynically. “No,” responded the gentleman from Michigan. -‘My line was strung and 1 just naturally lifted him out of the wet.” “I don’t know much about fish in’” sail! a new citizen late of Arizona, I’ve I ren knockin’ around thetorritory i for the last fifteen years, and in many 1 i places you're lucky to get water to y/rhli in, let alone fishin'. But I 'know souiethin’’bout frogs. ’Bout 7'l and 'SO when the nines wer boomin', frogs was in good demand in Tucson and Tombstone, and a <-atin’ Frenchman calle-l French re- iiu-l a ranch out near Arivncu whar he raised nothin’ but frogs. It' was amusin’ to see ’em when Frencby got his fiddle an’ played a little : French tune. They'd hop all around just like dancin'," and when he stop;.el and said ‘Baba,’ or somethin in French, an’ raised his bow to soil er beat time, one big feller would croak. Frencby used to say this one sang, but I can't swear that I heard him myself.” “You’ve done very well sir,” said the stout man admiringly. “I am sorry gentlemen," said the 1 man from Darien; “my life has been - s > singularly devoid of incident that I am unable to relate anv little adventure of-my own which would 1 vie with those which you ba e to|d so well. However my wife’s grand father followed the sea, and whaling was his passion. It is relate 1 of him that on one occasion a sperm whale stove-in the boat in which he was, and the old gentleman was cast into the sea,*in his confusion he swam direct to the whale, aud caught hold of one of the lips of the animal. “Seeing his situation was despe rate, and being naturally much alarmed, he began to whistle, the tune being, I believe, ‘Yankee Doodle.’ At once that monster of the deep ceased his furious lashing, and an expression of extreme content showed itself in the lines of his countenance. He even rolled gently from side to side.” “In time with the music I sup pose,” said the stout man. “Exactly in time with the music. My wife's grandfather, being patri otic, was much gratified at this evi dence of appreciation, and left the whale with regret when the second mate rowed up near him.” “Gentlemen,” said the stout man, “the drinks are on me. 1 shall be careful in the future to whom I in troduce Abe.” ONE-THIRTY A Thrilling Sketch From The Note Book of a Traveler.

Hercu lean Pride deliberate raises the object, a gray linen duster unfolds, bead, legs and arms develope, squirm ing like a crustageos tenacle, when lilted from its watery abode; fancy how grotesque. “137 be hanged, ticket or fare!” says the conductor. ’ “But that » the number of my annual every conductor knows it ontbe line.” 137 stutters, as he tremblingly hands it to the knight of the punch, who > glances at it and with a shoulder shrug aud lithe step crosses to the I followingcoacu. 137 mutters threats, > readjusts his duster and resumes a ■ recumbent posture, using four seats f on a deadhead pass, and wondering i how Idiotic of the conductor not to be able to see that he was a privil- J eged specimen of humanity.
