Turner rceeived a letter Wednesdav nierht from William Esselstyn, announcing the arrval of a fine big 7i pound boy at his home in Echo, born May 28.

The most adept, expert and sue cessful anglers of the day, the ones holding the prize for the larest catches, the largest fish caught and the largest tales to tell seem to be Culp, Irving and Pearce. These gentlemen seem to have the knack of hypnotizing the members ofthe finny tribe, or in some other occult way inducing the fish to bite. One party has remarked that by wading in the water, the fish may have been attracted by the peculiar odor generated by their feet coming in contact with the water. Be that as it mav, they caught the fish, and much to the apprecia tion of those who had the pleas ure of setting their teeth into i slice of the meat. One of the gentlemen relates an incident that took place when their friend Pearce caught his first large fish. After hooking the large specimen, Pearce was towed 'out into the river to a dangerous depth, and his chances for landing the fish were rather slim, when he called for help from those who were watching the show'from a less dangerous posi i mi i , .i tion. iney aeennea to take a hand, however, stating that they did not beh'eve in bagging another's game. Pearce strug gled manfully on and finally landed his fish, and during the course ot the afternoon, seyeral others. President Young Postponed Trip Joseph H.

The other resources of the Northwest, those of the farm, range, lorest and rivers, will bring in as much money as the staple crops.
