CASTING A FLY. "
Art Is Required to Do the Thine Prop
erly.
Fly casting constitutes one of the
greatest joys of angling. . Although
open water is, of course, preferable, it
is not, however, absolutely necessary.
Any 100-foot clear air space will an
swer the purpose of the beginner, al
though the water practice enables one
to use the regular cast of flies and lead
ers much sooner. - While sowed shots
for weiarhts are to be used in lieu of
flies and leaders in the first efforts the
lutter should as soon as possible be
substituted, for the line does not handle
the same when they are not attached.
In fly casting a carefully made and
especially adapted sectional split bam
boo rod may be used, and the reel should
be attached to the butt. With 20 feet
of line in the water, or upon the lawn,
as the case may be, and with the rod
held at ; angle of about 45 degrees
in front, . the angler is ready for the
slnrt of the cast. Let the line be now
worked out eight or ten feet further.
This is done by drawing the line from
the click reel with uie left hamd, and
then by the springing, willowy action
of the rod,' which action at the same
time draws the slack line through the
rod guides, the line is lifted upward
and overhead to the rear, making the
beginning of a very important feature
the back cast,
The upward, overhead and backward
motion of the line by the spring of the
rod is produced by the motion of the
angler's foroarm and wriet onlv. The
rod should be stopped in the backward
movercont when it reaches an angle of
ten degrees in the rear, and as the line
reaches a point in the rear at almost
right angles to the extreme tip of tht
rod the angler should again, by a w rist
nnd forearm movement, throw the rod
forward by an angle of 45 degrees in
front, thuM producing the cast. The
next cast should be made by drawing
the line from the reel as before and
making exactly tne same casting . mo
tions, and so on until the desired dis
ttmee is nttatned
The back cast often puzzles begin
tiers, in attempt to recover this tiacii
cast ton soon nnd start the line forward
before it has time to straighten out in
the rear many mishaps arc experienced.
The recovery must be made at the
right moment, and this is the most
difl'auit. problem of solution. This fea
ture will be made easy in time by care
nnd practice. The proper action of the
rod, which may be accurately con
ntrurtcd and especially aduptcd In
weight, and length for fly casting, will
be greatly impeded if the forearm and
wrist motion is not properly executed,
lt proper execution 4a the ferv foundn
tion, ns it were, of fly casting. It is not
a weak or relaxed motion, but a verv
rigid one. This motion brings out the
action of the rod, and if properly exe-
uttvl prodtiees the desired distance
costing und the forearm Is even auxil
fiiry to tl- wrist motion, which latter
throws the fly and the line upward nnd
backward. The piimii-nnndle motion of
the whole arms should lie moat careful
1 avoided, for although quite natural
for a befrinnrr, satisfactory results can
never result from ita use. LcwUton

and Charlie's people rather looked dewn
upon her because she did not have
money.
Colby felt indignantat them, and told
her that if Charlie didn't teach them
that a good, sweet girl was worth more
than all the riches in the world, he was
no true man.
Colby flattered himself that he was
too much a man of the world to be eas
ily worried over the affairs of other peo
ple, but this girl's frankness touched
him, nnd he felt a jealous pang when he
thought of Charlie's good fortune, and
Lis own loneliness. He had often said
that he would never marry while he j
was on the road, and he never felt just
like settling down, anyway. But this
sweet, confiding creature sent a new
feeling through him. He told himself
that if she would be likely to prefer him
to Charlie and his uninviting parent:,
ho would ask her to be his little wife,
and they would have a modest home
somewhere, and he would be willing to
give up the world and its allurements
forever. What these fancies might
have led iim to can never be known,
for the Bweet little maiden suddenly
began gathering up her belongings, as
they neared a station which the conduc
tor announced as "Brmooth."
"Yes," she said to Colby, "here is
where I get off. Some day I hope we
may meet again. You have made my
ride a very pleasant one, and it made
me so happy to confide in you."
He tried to tell her how she hnd
changed the current of his thoughts of
life, but before he had finished she was
upon the platform waving him an adieu
as the train pulled away.
Half an hour later Colby enmc out of
dreamland to feel for his vpfch. It
wasn't In his pocket, and whib hunt
ing for it he became aware of the fact
that his wallet, which confr.ird several
hundred dollars, was gone. too.
Then he. sat and scratched his head
for a long time, and final!" lie decided
that he would never believe in nt:pcar-

THfc SEA THEIR BEAT.
narltlma Police Who Freaerra Order In
tha North Sea.
Tn the middle of the North sea would
perhaps be a curious place to find a po
liceman on duty; yet some hundreds
are appointed to keep order there, und
st other places where their services are
hktly to be required. Great Britain,
Belgium. Fratice, Germany and Holland
each keep a certain number of cruisers
upon the high seas for this purpose,
whilst they are empowered to prosecute,
or, if necessary, take Into custody uny
vessel belonging to either of these coun
tries. In addition each cruiser carries
a Judge, in the shape of an officer In
charge, who can try tbe ctse and inflict
a penalty providing the defendant con
sents to his trying tbe eae beforehand
and whose decision can only be al
tered by the court of appei'ls.
Allowing a ship to wander about the
high seas without keeping projier con
trol over her Is far more common than
might be exx-ctcd. The man whose
watch it is may lie asleep, and it Is
often a difilcvlt motter to prove that a
large percentage of the collisions that
occur are directly due to thiscnuse.
The I.IImb disaster Is only one example
of the many awful results of careltss
watching. However, the eagle eye of
the "sea bobby, by bis bull s-eye lan
tern which in the casc of tbe marl
time policeman Is a powerful search
light Is so keenly on the alert forcaaes
of this sort, nnd such a heavy fine Is in
flicted on conviction, that charges of
wandering without proper control" are
every year becoming less frequent.

was his anguish over losing all his prop
ertyto wit, a 300-note that he
drank a cask of ale in one day. The day
following he was dead. Byrne had tt
great dread of becoming a dissecting
room subject. He made a bargain with
a fisherman before he died to take hi3
body out into the channel and throw it
overboard.
Hunter, the English surgeon, learned
of this arrangement, nnd by paying the
fishermen $500 he prevailed upon them
to carry out their bargain to the letter,
but to attach a rope to the body and
drag it up again after it had been im
mersed. The fishermen served two mas
ters and Hunter got the body. '
The tiny skeleton is that of Caroline
Crachami, the Sicilian dwarf, who was
exhibited in Europe in the early part of
the century. The' child did not grow
after birth, and before she reached her
teens she died. Her body, it is said, was
sold to a British surgeon by her parents.
Beside the giant's frame stands one of
the boots Byrne wore when he died. The
skeleton of the dwarf can be slipped
into it as easily as a pipe stem. N. Y.

CONSCIENCE HIS TYRANT.
Woes of a Toung Man Who Always Ful
filled His I'romlaos.
There was an anxious, doubtful look
on the young fellow's face us he paced
up and down the. aisle in a Broadway
cable car. the other evening. There
were half a dozen seats, yet the young
mnn took no notice of thorn, und con
tinued his restlews pacins: to and fro
savs the New York Herald. '
"Seats in front, plenty of 'em," said
the conductor, brusquely.
The young man continued his patrol.
A benevolent, old gentleman pulled
him by the coat and said: "Here's n
scat, sir." The young man shook his
head.
A newcomer entered the car, and, Do
ing aa altogether officious perron,
pointed to the vacant scats. The younp
man still walked.
"Hello, Henry!" exclaimed a dnpixT
young fellow, an. acquaintance of the
peripatetic, who just then bounced
into the car. "Why don't you nit down?
What in the. world makes you walk up
and down like that?"
"Conscientious scruplen," said the
young pedestrian. "You sty, I promised
Iter that I would walk down to the.
florist uivd get some rows for her. I
would much have preferred to ri 'c,; ou
know. It's hot and dusty, it:ul so I'm

THE KARAIM JEWS.

The Karalm Jews nuniler 3,000 or .
000, nnd live principally in the Crimea.
They speak a 1 artard ialfctnmong Ihcm-
selves. and ethnologically are much
more like Tartars than Semites, soys
the Saturday licview. Their own le
gends, in fact, permit the HSKUiuption
that they were Khnzara. and wete con

Their form of Judaism differs from thi.t

correspondents, 1 remember an inci
dent that may interest you. It was at
the beginning of the Ashantce cam
paign, just after our landing; ' a square
built, little man came up to me and said,
speaking slowly, and with an: unmis
takable American accent: . ;
" 'General, allow me to introduce my
self; I am the correspondent of the
New York Herald. T '
"Too busy to attend to him, I cut hlra
short with 'What can I do for you,
sir?'
"He replied, imperturbably, vyith the
same exasperating slowness; 'Well,
general, I want to be as near you as I
can if there is any fighting to be seen.'
" 'Capt. So-and-so has charge of all
the arrangements concerning corre
spondents,' I rejoined, ' curtly; 'you
had better see him.- And with this I
turned on my heel and went about my
U. ! !
uusnieisa.
"I saw no more of my correspondent
with the aggravating coolness and slow
ness of speech for many a day. I did
not even know whether he was accom
panying the column or not.
"Personally speaking, I was only in
danger once during the whole expe
tiitton. it was shortly before we en
tered Coomossie. I hnd prensed for
ward with the advance troops, hoping
to break the last effort nt resistance
and have done with the affair, when
the enemy, utilizing the 'heavy covert,
came down nnd fairly surrounded ns,
For a few minutes the position was
critical, nnd every man had to fight,
for the enemy's fire was poured in nt
close quarters. They pressed upon us
from al' sides, dodging from tree to
tree, and cautiously edging closer,
hoping to get hand to hnnd. In the
hottest of it my attention was caught
by a man in civilian's clothes, who wns
Rome 15 or 20 yards In front of me.
and who was completely surrounded
by the advancing savages. He seemed
to pay no attention to the dnnger he
wns in, but, kneeling on one knee, took
aim, nnd fired again and again, and I
seemed to see that every time he fired
a black man fell. I was fascinated by
his danger and coolness. As our main
body came up and the savages were
iliivcn bock, 1 went forward to see
that no harm come to my civilian
friend, who rose just na I reached him.
To my astonishment it was the corre
spondent of the New York Herald, and
he began again in the same slow, calm
wy:
'"Well, general'
"Again I interrupted him: 'You
were lueky to escape. Didn't you see
that roti were surrounded?
"'Well, general,' he begnn again, 'I
guess I was too much occupied by the
ulggers In front to pay much attcn
tion lo those Ix-htnd.
"That was evidently the simple trnth.
Whatever men may say In the future
tbout Henry M. Stanley, no one thnt
has seen him In danger w-IIl deny that
his courage Is of the first quality. I
took a liking to him on the emit, and
we lwcnme great friends; nor bss any
thing occurred since to alter my opln
Ion of him. Ixindon Saturday Ite,

A PIPE STORY DEFINED.
Bow the Term Originated in Chlcajo, the
City of Chinese Stool Flireon.
There is one favorite Chicago ex
pression that. I don't hear iu Washing
ton so often, said a correspondent
Crom, the; windy city to a Washington
Post man.- "It is 'pipe' stories, as Byn-
onyrne for fake, or canard, or ghost
story. ' '
'Where does it come from? , Oh, it
came from the west along with the Chi
nese, and I suppose you will get it here
when Chinameu and opium joints be
come more numerous. There are lots
of white hop fiends in Chicago, and a
great many of them are stool pigeons
for the police and "detective depart
ments. They are not much good at any
stage of the game, but they have to be
half way tanked with opium -before
they are any good at all.; Then if they
get too much they go to the other ex
treme and imagine everything that
they don't "know, ,
"One of them will hit the pipe for an
hour or so and then come around police
headquarters with the most marvelous
stories of hold-ups, burglaries and sim
ilar crimes that you ever heard. If
they get hold of a green reporter or a
green policeman they are liable to have
them chasing all over the universe at
dead hours of the night looking for
hese suppositional events, and their
theudacinations are known to the police
us 'pipe stories,' or 'talking pipe. - That
is the symbol in Chicagoese for any
thing that is without fouudation iu
fact."
TATTOOING IN BURMAH.
It la a Shame for a Burmah Youth Mot
to Ba Ueeerated In Inks.
The professional tottooer in Burmah
is a rapid worker, and the pricking ma
chine soon runs over the outlines of the
figure; but what takes time ia the "fill
ing In," which Is done with a somewhat
broader style, saya Chambers" Journal.
Every part of the figure must be cov
ered with either black or vermilllon,
nnd, as you ace tho brass bird swoop
ing down time after time, you begin to
reckon how many more st rokes remain
before your torture will be at an end.
Taitooimjin Uurmah is a national In
stitution, every mnle being covered
with figures from his waist to his
knee, so that In the distance he ap-
tearn to ba clothed in beautifully-fitting
"tights." The operations com
mence In early boyhood, a few figures
being done at a time. Every descrip
tion of animal, real or Imaginary, from
an elephant to a mythical form ot cat.
Is portrnyed, each bring set In a frame
work of Durtniih writing. To lie tin-
tattooed Is a disgrace to a Burmah
youth; and, following the custom of
the British suitor in having himself
statu pad with the name of his lady love,
It Is no uncommon thing to ara, on some
jturt of a "young spark's" body, a num
lier of round lluruian charactera the
equivalent to I'olly or Susan.
