SHARP Opera IIouso Block Court St. BY (pom Novel Trip of An Angler On the ' Florid Coast Bobbing gayly ntCS ln n ,nt tached to a big sea cow Z0XilA .lke most persons as a pleasant dlve7.?.,on' and so thought Mr. John D. CrlmmlmJ, Itho Now York capitalist, who recently enjoyed that unique sport at Palm Beach, Fin. Mr. Crlmmins and his son were Just off tho pier nt Palm Beach In a small fishing boat. Catches were not very lively, and everybody taking the most listless Interest in the sport. Suddenly the spectators were electri fied at seeing Mr. Crlmmins' canoe shoot off across the water at an express train rate. "Sharks I Man eatin' sharks! Le's all git out o dlsl" shouted a score of dar- kles ln chorus as they dropped theh fishing poles and pulled frantically ou their oars. "Nothing of tho sort," began Mr. Crlmmins urbanely. "It's a" But just then the sea cow on the other end of Mr. Crlmmins' fish line THE MANATEE IIEADEi) FOE orEN SEA gave a terrlllc llirt to her' tail, and the frnll craft behind took a new notch In its gait. By this time it was plain to the com pany that Mr. Crlmmins had set out to give an exhibition of fancy driving, The water is of wonderful clearness off Long pier, and the huge, ecllike body of tho manatee was as distinctly visl blc as if It had floated on the blue sur faco of the sea. Sea cows are not uncommon ln that district to sailors, but decidedly a nov elty to landsmen close inshore. Mr. Crlmmins can name at sight about everything that swims, and as soon as he spied the sinuous curve of tho manatee's body ho knew what it was. Ho decided ou the instant to cap ture it. The manatee does not take bait. Mr, Crlmmins trailed his hook until he had It caught firmly in the sea cow's tough sleek skin. It was then that the specta tors on the beach saw the canoe dart forward, got a glimpse of the plunging sea cow and understood the game. It was fun pretty well spiced with danger from start to finish. Tho sea ..USE PURE.. Artificial Ice Telephone Main 106.

Consequently no false starts were made, and ln the end the sea cow came out of It without get. ting the least bit blown and in true sporting parlance fresh ob a daisy. Ordinarily a sea cow has the mildest temper Imaginable. Amiability beams from her big soft eyes. At first Mr. Crimralns' catch was un conscious of her captivity, and the ca noe wbb drawn forward with the fiteauj mtlon of Lohengrin's swan boat Finally the sea cow became aware that Mr. Crlmmins was getting a ride for nothing, and her temper was ruflled. With a snort she thrust her head down and stnrted ahead at a rapid rate. Mr. Crlmmins plnyed out line ns far ns possible. "Swls( hlffl" and tho manatee thrashed the water Into pale greeu foam. This proved Ineffective. The hook still stuck. "Swing on! Hooray! Tire your catch out!" shouted tho spectators encour agingly. Just as Mr. Crlmmins was replying that he Intended to swing ou the mana tee headed toward the open sea niul plunged forward at nn astonishing gait. A trail of foam marked the track for a distance, and after that the Crlm mins craft appeared to ride her furious way like a Flying Dutchman, not pro polled by anything or directed by any body. Suddenly the canoe slackened her speed.. Tho big tarpon hook had proved un equal to the strain, straightened out and let go Its prey. Mr. Crlmmins still held his fishing pole fast The feeding grounds of the manatee are in the scmisaline marshes of the Florida coast. Unlike the seal, they keep tolerably close Inshore ln shallow water. They weigh from 1.000 to 1.500 pounds and are strong ln proportion to size. Representatives of tho Smithsonian Institution nt Washington nre now nt I'alm Beach on the lookout for a choice specimen. There is a penalty of $500 attached to killing a sen cow without license. "The variety of fish found off Palm Beach Is remarkable," said Mr. Crlm mins. "One never knows what one Is going to catch next. The negroes, how ever, are the cleverest fishermen there. "The sharks are the worst enemies to good fishing, and there are multi tudes of them. They will always take a bait, and often they will take your fish before you can land it. I have had them snap up a fish of four or five pounds that I had safely hooked and bite It off below tho head as cleanly as If It had been slashed off with a knife. "Of course landing one's first shark Is exciting, for they are fighters, but after you have caught five or six you get tired of it and nre only too willing to have them leave you alone. They are big fellows, some of them, but they are only n nuisance. "It is Intensely Interesting to get ln among the coral reefs and watch the fish life down eighteen or twenty feet In the clear water. The smaller fish usually get ln among the corals to pro tect themselves from tho hordes of prcdnceous larger fish. Some of the big llsli are clever enough to know this and take advantage of it. I have seen an enormous jowllsh lying as motion less as n log at the bottom, seemingly oblivious to everything. But let a dar lug small fish get within reach, and in a moment an enormous mouth has opened, and the smnll fish is in It and on his way to tho depths." NEW JERSEY HIGHWAYS. Goad Honda Ilavc Added Largely to Taxable Value of Ileal Estate. The new stone roads are doing more for the development and advantage of New Jersey than all other causes com blned. They are bringing Into the state a large and desirable class of new residents nnd property holders. Well to do citizens of New York and Phila delphia arc buying lands and building country seats along the lines of these Improved roads. There have been numerous marked examples of the effect of these roads In creating a demand for and raising tho price of New Jersey real estate. On one road, that between Long Branch nnd Asbury Park, real estate values have Increased by over $3,000,000 since tho road was built The value of the real estato on tho line of the Im proved road through tho sand dunes between Ventnor and Long Port, be low Atlantic City, advanced a million and a half while the road was building. Tiiero have been almost ns notablo Increases In tho vnlues of realty ln Es sex, Passaic and Morris counties, and to a less but still very distinct extent in Somerset Mercer. Middlesex and Union. The advance In the taxable valuo of tho real property throughout NowJTsey by reason of these Im proved roads Is a very largo return for tho Investment Good roads also bring, tho markets nearer to the farms, lessen tho wear nnd tear of vehicles and horses, double the loads that can be hauled with the samo traction power and secure better service from city tradesmen through tho .regions they Intersect It is a wlso policy to liberally support tho good roads movement CURRENT POLITICAL DISCUSSION.

Baker for wanting Mr. Whitney of Aihanv elected! state printer. Mr. Baker was the republican state , printer twice and Is a loyal republi-j can still, But he should not blame other peo ple who are republicans and who are not state printers and never expect to be from looking at the matter from a different light. The republican party has every thing to gain and nothing to lose by abolishing the old $35,000 a year graft, putting the printer on a salary and breaking the ever expanding graft. If the republican party elects Mr. Whitney the present graft will be continued and Mr. Baker will .con tinue to make more out of the state printing than any other official. The Oregonfan not print the facts about this matter, either from the laws or the reports of the secre tary of state. It will not print the facts as presented in Mr. Chamber lain's speeches. But the people will hear Mr. Cham berlain all the more gladly because he is excluded from the Portland or gan of tho associated political graft. The state should buy and own its printing plant or all the state print ing should be done at commercial rates on union scale. The people cannot bring this about, having all the work done at commercial prices in commercial printing offices if Mr. Whitney is elected. If Mr. Whitney is elected he will either lease the Frank Baker state printing office or the faction he .s the candidate of will buy tho Frank Baker state printing office. The peo pie want neither. At fair commercial prices the state printing should not cost over $15, 000 to $20,000 at the utmost. Organized labor should know that at present, with the state furnishing rent free an office, light, water, heat and janitorshlp for a private plant, all the work Is not done by union la bor. The whole graft hasn't a leg to stand on and the only way to beat it WITH DStt science is announced by M. Armand Gautier in the current number of tho Comptes Rcndus. He has found that sodium methylarsenate injected into ' the blood In minute amounts Is nn ab solute cure for malarial fever. Particulars are given of the treat ment of nine cases, all of which had been contracted in Africa and which were of such a severe type ns to be re fractory to large doses of quinine. The nine cases were rapidly cured, two only showing a slight relapse, and these yielded nt once to a second injection. The progress of the cure was followed in each ease by tho examination of tho blood, and the treatment was always followed by the disappearance of tho specific hematozoa. The salt was also found to suppress entirely tho anrcmla associated with malaria. r xi i . ui. uimuer regarus tuo results as sufficiently definite to authorize tho substitution of this drug for quinine in pernicious malaria, although it still remains for further researches to de termlne the best dose and whether ad ministered by the mouth or hypoder- micauy is to he preferred.

But half the voters will never learn the facts. Salem Capital Journal re They Seat Warmers7 According to tho estimable Pendle ton Tribune, the county clerk's of fice is occupied at present by in competent '-'seat warmers." Indeed? Perhaps the seat In the clerk's of fice are kept a trifle warm by two men who are doing the county's work when three were formerly re quiredbut it has served a useful purpose. No man ln this county, democrat or republican, had anything to say against genial, affable, pleas ant, kindly, honest Ben Burroughs. Even in the heat of a campaign, no body had ever accused him of being unfaithful or incompetent. But iu tlie last two full years of Mr. Bur roughs' administration the expense of running the clerk's office waB $4744.97 for 1898 and $4550.02 for 1899. For 1901, under Mr. Chamber lain's administration, the expenses were 3398.02, or twelve to fourteen hundred dollars less. It would ap pear that "seat warmers" of this character the county can afford to keep, especially when they happen to be capable, courteous and obliging. Weston reader. The Cry! of Scuttle. There is no "scuttle" party, in Ore con. There is a small element of republicans known as "antis," who favor abandonment of the Philip pines. There is a minority of the demo cratic party who favor leaving the islands to themselves. But they made their light in 'the state con vention, and were beaten. No party ln Oregon favors abandoning the Philippines. There 'is no "scuttle" In the dem ocratic platform. Republican "an tis" would not say so. It serves the Oregonian In Its fight on Chamberlain to say he stands on a scuttle platform, but It cannot quote the platform to prove what it claims. The Oregonian scuttles when it re fuses to print Chamberlain's speech Salem Capital Journal. A young lady of small stature recent ly fainted nt a dinner given in her hon or. It was then found she had not been able to touch either her feet to the floor or her back to the chair, and tho re Btricted circulation and prolonged dis comfort had finally overcome her. An nntiqunrian, says a writer In Pop ular Science News, traces the present mania for high seats to the fact that at the old French courts sots of handsome furulture were ranged nlong the wnllB for effect, but never occupied. The chairs nnd sofas actually used were much lower. Furniture makers of to day copy the more showy pieces and further enhance their inutility by curing cusnions. The dictum of a famous cabinet mak er is that in choosing chairs the knee or a person standing should come clear nuovo the sent he Intends to occupy. U-nka In Giu Pipe.
