Silent as an otter, the man moves nto tho water till it curls about his tnees, Bays a writer in Outinff. An arri iways back and forth, and an insect lutters softly upon the surface) of the ool somo yards away. Quickly the arm iways a jain, and again an insect kisses .he surface of the water. A flash of a rilvery crescent, a plash in the water, a lUdden, stronger swirl in the writhing; mrrent; then a sharp, metallic discord asps out against tho song1 of the )irds. The man's eyes blaze with a iwift, ea;rer light, his cheek flushes ilightly; there is then exultation in jvery line of his face. His right hand ilmehes upon the wand, the rasping die- sord ceases, the wand arches to' a semi sircle and quivers with perilous strain, arhile two keen eyes rivet upon a shift- ng, swiriing commotion that maddens ihe wator here, there, back, forth, un- jeasingly. A ball of snowy spume upon ihe surface, a spatter of jeweled drops, i tinted shape curving in air an in itaut, au apprehensive "Ah!" from the nan's parted lips, and again the lithe wand curves and strains. So is fought ;he good fight, till skill conquers Within the fatal net gleams a shining belly and pearl-bordered fins above a itreak of olive gemmed with ruby ipangles. The man's face glowa with pride ai ho carefully bears his captive to the shore. Upon a fragrant bier of freshest green within the creel a dead king lias in state. All day the silent man croons hither and thither along the stream casting, fighting, waiting, noting many things, until darkness falls; then homeward through the scented shadows, with a whisper of fall ing song irom darkened copses. The man s foet arc tired with a healthy wearinenij the creel strap cuts deep Into his shoulder, but his heart is light and h;s soul at peace. Not one evil idea has entered his mind all day and he has learned much. That is trout fishing and do you people with money and leiKure bear in mind the fact that if you stjare tho rod you may spoil yourself. Electrle Bitters.

The "borer," a pest about the size of a small strawberry, is working great havoc among the oyster beds in Dela ware bay and tributary streams, says the Philadelphia Ledger. Capt. Moses Veale, of the oyster' schooner White Lily, says that the de structive powers of the "borer" have beer' known to oystermeh only a few years. He had followed oyster digging for nearly thirty-five years, and the first "borer" ho saw was about ten years ago, but their ravages in the oys ter beds were comparatively unnoticed until last yaar. Capt. Vf ale said that "last year the number 1 1 dead oysters with holes made by bore in the shell became so great that r.ystermen were alarmed. This year the work of the borers has become a rave matter, and if it continues r.any bays will be depopulated of oys ters. From one bed we dredged on this trip we got twelve hundred baskets of outers, but out of these only two hun dred were good, the dead oysters hav ing been killed by borers. A peculiar thing about tho ravages of the 'borers' Is their apparent selection of the best oyster beds. We have found this to be true several times this season. We have found a bed of small 03'sters al most entirely free from 'borers.' This bed will bo separated from another bed of larger oysters by two hundred feet, but this latter lied will be so badly affected by the creatures that it will hardly pay to work it. B rom what I can learn from oyster men the destruction wrought by borers is much more severe in Delaware bay than in other places. The work of the borer this year makes a double misfortune, for the oyster beds were badly damaged by the big storm in August and September. Very few people who are not in the oyster dredging business know any thing of the methods of the borer. When I first took notice of Its work I secured several oysters just after the borer had fastened Itself to the shell. When the borer fastens itself it holds on like a leech, and it is with difficulty that it can be removed with the fingers. ' "Hometimes the borer fastens Itself to the oyster shell near the edge snd then the oyster is not killed. When the hole ot the borer is made near tho center of 'the shell the oyster Is at tacked in its vital parts and dies In three or four days after the hole Is first made." home of the bed-owners near Maurice river have lost large sums of money this year on account of the borer. All oyntcrtnen say there ran be 110 way taking away the Nirer without do a troy log the oyster beds. FUTURE OF ALUMINUM.

' The young people in one of St Louis' prettiest suburbs are in a state of fever ish excitement over a new game that has been devised by some of their num ber, says the Globe-Democrat. . It is called "progressive hammocking," and is so full of golden opportunities in a sentimental wax that It is destined to become very popular with the youth ol both sexes. ', ' - A bright young girl, to whom, with several others, is due the credit of hav ing given this new diversion .to the world, thus describes it: You see, each girl is provided with a hammock, in which sho reclines, grace- fuly or ungracefully, according to the extent of her experience in hammocking, during the game. The hammocks are hung far enough apart so that no one can see or hear her neighbors, and above each is suspended a : Chinese lantern with a number on it; but these, of course, will be blown out early in the proceedings. A chaperon Is required preferably two a lady and a gentle man. To start the game the boys draw numbers from a hat, and then each hunts up the hammock which corre sponds to the number drawn. At a given signal he begins to tell the girl In it a love story. By the rules the stories must be impersonal. . "But of course they won't be. That," she added with a laugh, "Is a matter that lies with the story teller and his conscience. Well, at tho end of fifteen minutes the chaperon beats a tom-tom and the boys move up one hammock, and each tells another story . to a new listener. The stories, mind you, must all be different that Is, one cannot tell the same story to two girls." "And they must all be love stories?" asked the reporter. , "Certainly. Oh, It's more fun. The boys out there are scouring the town for short love stories. , Do Maupassant ia in great demand. But some ot them draw pn their own experience for ma terial. Well, when the rounds have been made, and each of the six, say, has told six amorous tales to six tender maidens a secret ballot is taken, the girls voting for the best story-teller and the boys for the ix-at listener. That's here the real funny part comes In, Or, of course, each girl will vote for the man she likes best, and vice versa; hence the chaperon will become the sacred repository of one-half doten true love tales." "What alKHit the prisesT" "There will be six first prises on eaHi side, ami no boodles," and the fair schemer laughed heartily at tho success of her efforts to devise something new and startling In tho wsy of summer amusement. faeefa for llaaeee end Halls for are te lie Made nf lb Aluminum, which Itself posaeaaes a high degree of specific heat, does nut really absorb heat Itself, and thus Is not liable to the chief objection to Iron buildings in hot l oiintrlca. lint spsrl from light decorative purposes, says the rSt. Ionis 1'oat IHspatoh, surh ae balconies, cupolas, finlals and vrran das, It Is as a roofing malt-rial that aluminum shoald tie moat welcome to the builder.
