' OLD MAN SAVARIN. •
, --
BY EDWARD WILLIAM THOMSON.
Old Midarre Peradis had caught seventeen
setall dore four sucker, and eleven ehan-
nk-catfish'before she used up all the wefts
hi her tomato can Therefore she wa ri in a
clieerfa and loquacious humor when f, came
allong and offered her some of my bait
1"itierci ; non, M'siett. sDat'a'neff .fishird
kir me. I got too old now for fish too much.
You like melee you present of six or seven ,
dere ? Yes' AU right. Then you make
me present of one quarter dollar." I.
When this transaction was completPti,the
old lady got out her short -Meek clay pipe,
and filled it with tabae blane. „
"Ver' good smell for EMare mosquitoes
said, she. " Sit dow•n, M'sitie. For sure
like so be here, me, for see the river when
she's like this."
Indeed- the scene was more than pic-
turesque. Her fishing -platform ex ended
twenty - feet from the rocky shore of the
great Itata.plan Rapid of the Dtta.wa,
beginning to tumble a mile to the- 'west-
ward, poured a roaring torrent half a, mile
into the broader, calm browe reach below.
Noble elms towered. on the shores. l3e-
tween their trunks ' we cooild, see- many
whitewashed cabins, whose riloors of bine or
green or red seareely diselosed their colors
in that 'light.
The siuking sun, Which already touched
the river, seemed somehow the source of the
vast stream that. flowed radiantly from its
blaze. Through the glamour of the evening
mist and the maze of June flies we could
see a dozen men sceoping for fish from•plate
forms like that of Midame Paradis.
Each scooper lifted a greaqhoop-net aet
on a -handle some fifteen feet - long, threw it
easily .upstream, and swept it on edge -with
the current to the • full length of his reach.
Then it was drawn out and . once thiewn
upward again, if no capture had been made.
Incase he had taken fish, he came to the
inshore edge of his platform, and upset the
net's contents into a pool separated from
tahtoenems.air.i rapid by an improvised wall of
" Prn too old for scoop - some now," said
Ma.,'arne Paradise with.a sigh. .
"You were never strong enough to scoop,
surely," said I.
'No, :eh,? All right, M'sieu. Then you
hale% nesd hear 'boat the time Old Man
Savarin was °etched up with. No, eh?
Well, tol' you 'out that." And this
was her story as she told it to me..
