The Herald, 1903-05-15, Page 5Another Fishing Fact,
It was a • guest night at the club, and
atom the gleam ii itreteher's eyes, we
who knew hirn recognized. that be was. in
that 'manor when a man can tell a 'ilsh-
i1'ig story and actue' y 'believe it himself.
It came sooner than we anticipated,
however, owing to a remail: dropped by
Padders during the second eoul'se,
"Awfully woolly, this fish, don't you
think 7"
"It isn't 'as good as it might be," re-
plied Stretcher,- And then, luinping et
the opportunity, he continued: "That re-
minds me of when I was sheep farming
in Australia, some years ago—we had
some fish once which were woolly with a
vengeance." •
"Worse 'than this?" asked Padders,
"I'11 tell you all about it, and then you
can judge for yourself," answered
Stretcher. "I was farming a few thou-
sand acres of the low lands which were
watered by the Burrumudgee Riff er, and
Was doing remarkably well. In fact, I
should have made a fortune there if the
infernal river had not taken it into its
head to flood just about the lambing sea -
5011,
"Nearly all my grass -land was covered
with water, and for weeks we didn't see
anything of our largest flock of sheep,
and naturally enough came to the con -
elusion that they were all destroyed.
"One day the head -shepherd and I
went out in a little punt that we'd
knocked together, just to have a look
round, and see if we could cateh some
fish—for the hands at the station began
to want a chapge of diet.
"We caught a lot of blue fish and some
bass, and then I got a bite that nearly
jerked Inc out of the boat; but John,
the Shepherd, lent me a hand, .and be-.
tween us we pulled the beggar in—and
he was the strangest looking fish that
ever Pd seen.
"However, there was a lot of him, and
so we made our way back to the station,
pleased at having done so well.
"I needn't tell you that out in the
back settlements, down below there, we
didn't use to go in much for cooking.
Our chef at that time was a native called
Wa"ga, to whole we handed over our
eater, with instructions to clean, and
bake them in the ashes.
"Later on the meal •was served up,
and, of course, everyone wanted to have
a. bit of the big fellow, so I served hint
out accordingly. But before I'd helped
half a dozen, 1. noticed that something
was wrong.
"'What's the natter, boys?' I en-
quired.
"'Well, boss;' answered old Steb, 'I've
heard of woolly fish afore, but Pm
blamed if I ever come across anything
like this. L ool:e here!' And he held
out on his fork at large piece of wooll
"There was no mistaking it; so I set
to work to inspect the remainder of our
big fish, and I found that just inside the
outer layer of scales it had a layer of
wool for all the world like a sheep.
"Of course I began to suspect the
truth then—and, to cut a long story
short, we found that the lambs that
had just been born when the river flood-
ed had adjusted themselves to circum-
stances.
"They'd grown fins instead of legs,
gills in plaee of Iungs, and had acquired
an outside skin of scales.
"'There hadn't been time for the wool
to disappear altogether, but no doubt
, that would have happened in a few gen-
erations—only, when the floods went
down, of course their environment al-
tered again, and they had to change hack
once more.
"No, I can't say that they were a suc-
cess, for, as fish, they were very tallowy;
and afterwards, when they resumed their
proper shape, there was always a her-
ringy flavor about the mutton."

The voice of the youth choked with

Along. Spreading a handkerchief upon
the ground, he fell upon his knees, sever-
ing in his impetuosity the last bond of
connection between his suspenders and
his sky-blue trousers.
"O.11, fairest of maids!" he pleaded,
"enter now into that emptiness and 1111

The fairest of maids smiled sadly and
abruptly. Her face wore that far -away
expression so. characteristic of Pike's

the dim corridors of memory and had
far to go. Her silence had the delicate
odor of pepsin guar. The youth pressed
her for an answer until his arm ached
with the exertion.
Finally, after•consultin 'her notebook,

thoughts into one idea, they wandered
out into the cold, unfeeling world, and

War between the Scotch and the En-
gliah i5 on once more. This time sword,
and long bowe are not the iulplernents
of yengeanee, but the pens of authors.
Not long ago the publication of "The Un-
speakable Scot" aroused rmteh resent-
ment among the dwellers in Caledonia
by its unjust criticism of the Scotch
people. A counter -thrust has now ap-
peared from the pen of Angus McNeill,
entitled "The Egregious English." This
is made up of scathing irony, sarcasm,
criticism, and hypercriticism, directed
against the English people and some of
their customs and institutions.
In brief, Mr. McNeill says England is
decadent. Her men of business are "Wil-
lie boys;" her journalists are tied to
apron -strings; her employed men are ser-
vile slaves; tier women ate as homely as
Don Quixote's duenna, and with no re-
deerning qualities of mince; her army is
weighted down with commissioned -offi-
cers, knowing well bow to climb the so-
cial latiuer, but understanding nothing

tures, dishing up to a gluttonous public

Paris, in describing the eilect of alcohol
upon animals, says . that the successive
stages of intoxication . tlu'ouglr which
they pass are gaiety, sadness, solemnity,
and a supreme intoxication which ends
in death. Rabbits are very envious when
under the influence of liquor, and a
drunken kangaroo is brutally aggressive.

The March "Magazine of Art" has an
interesting account of Bertram Hiles, the
armless artist, with several reproductions
of his works—one in color. Mr. Miles, it
seems, nourished the desire to become an
artist from 'his early childhood. At eight
yeiu's of age, however, be was deprived
of both his arias in a tramcar accident;
at Bristol. But this did not cause him
to abandon his intention, and he decided
to fulfil it by learning to draw with his
mouth. In sbec years from the date of
the accident he bad acquired such facili-
ty in this extraordinary method of work
that he could accomplish with ease most
things that we do with our hands.

Poor Lo Snatched Baldheaded.
Dr. David ,Starr Jordan, president of

bas recently discovered 0 number of new
varieties of fish in the streams of Ha-
waii and the Philippines, is a great
eportsntan as well as a conseierttious ich-
thyologist. As aright be expected, he
uses the most approved of modern rods
and ffies in fishing.

fer old-faslhioned methods," said Dr. Jor-
dan, "and though the .ancient story of
