While the court was helping its oldest member, Justice Oliver Wen dell Holmes, to celebrate his 89th birthday, there came news of the sudden death in a Washington dental office of one of its mem- Justice Edward Terry Sand ; ford: In a> few hours came report of the death of the late Chief • Justice Taft. • ‘ Mr . Justice Sandford was 64 ; years old. He was appointed to the supreme court' by .‘President Harding in 1923. A native of west-- ern Tennessee the body was re turned to Knoxville for buriql. It i was accompanied by a delegation from the court, which returned im mediately to Washington for the last rites in honor of the late chief justice. ' The death of Justice Sandford provides President Hoover another opportunity to name a member of the highest court in the country. How he will meet the situation in the light of the recent senatorial fight on confirmation of appoint ment of Chief Hughes remains to be seen. The fight on Mr. Hughes was not personal, but was based upon the belief that he was too conservative, that his long connec tion with big business had prejud iced him toward that viewpoint. If the new appointment is of a man of similar connection a more stren uous fight may be expected upon him. ♦ 1 Fraulein Anna Koetzen of Berlin threw acid in the face of Otto Marisch, who had jilted her, and destroyed the sight of his eyes.

In the, old days before these things, happened, why if .a person lived on a, fresh water pond or rivulet, why all they had to do was to bait their hdok with sjdnach and they were practical ly sure of dragging in a .muskie, a, pickerel, a perch, a pestilence, a sword fish, a swage, a serod or a, era me.. But now days since they have found out about the new kinds of fish you have got to use a whole lot more Judgment. J?hat Is \vhy , J have been approached oh all sides with a view to learning the now se*. crets in regards to how to fish for the new kind of fish. Would like to exchiira at the outset that 1 have,, long been a student of what 1 sometimes call the tinley tribe and am known around home by a nick name 1 once give myself, namely, still call me Isaac on accl. of the -mastery j have got over the piilCjUbfljJ, m —"—*** Well to filcike a short story stilt i Muuir&» tht? miesi hsn uuu caff be caught in medium water, that is, half way between salt and fresh and vice verse, is the geffel. The nimrod must first lay on their back and read 'an eveTiiiTg paper. Along about five o’clock you bait your hjook and cast H oJL the side o| tlie boaT or or bicycTe*oP wTmievJr |qu wal in to start with. The bait must be sag? dressing out oTa turkey. It will Im prove matters a good deal if the fish erman keeps reading the comic pic tures of the paper and laughing aloud as that makes the geffel think he is not in earnest. Sometimes it is nec essary to have two evening papers as the geffel don’t always agree on which is the funniest pictures. The first time Commodore Gallagher of the Knickerbocker i’acht club fished for geffel, he had no less than three comil supplements and haa to read one and a Vz before 'ie even got a nibble. By that time both he and the geffel was laugh ing their heads*off. That put them both on easy st. Another fish that has recently been discovered in all kinds of waters and some kinds of milk is the prone. The word prone means laying down face forwards on your stomach and that is where this scion of the tinley tribe' got its name on acct. of it always iy-‘ ! ing down face forwards on its Stom ach. In o*-der to catch them you have got to first wake them up and turn them over and ask them why they was laying on their'stomach. It may of been from cramps or something, but as soon as you find out then you know how to fist) lor them. If it was cramps you give them some kind Os indigestion tablets which 1 won’t men tion no names on acct. of free adver tising, but if that is what it was, they will get very grateful and turn over on their side and I hen is the time to grab them. A prone laying on their side is as helpless as one of Tunney’s sparring •> »' 1 , In this connection 1 it might be’of Interest to tell other Isaac Nimrods s about '> my first experience in prone fishery. 1 1 had been out in a queel boat on Lake Geneva; Wisconsin, for three years, every day, trying to get a prone/ 5 They wouldn’t even look at me. One day'’however, one of them got in terrible shape and began to cry- in misery and* 1 called'down" to the bottom of the lake what is the matter. The 1 prone 1 -rolled over and made the remark that it ferr ! kind ot out-of things ws JprfrtieS had been go Ing on at the -different mansions and 1 cottages -around the lake and It had hot been invited to ooe. . ’ Well, I sayW you and I are In the same boat. 4 5 * No, says the prone, we ain’t but we will be* With that, he Jumped up and got my boat/ That is one way of catching a prone. - . Another kind of fish that every body is ravenous to grab one of them down our way is the month fish. This is four times as long as the weak fish and it takes four times as long to catch -them but when you catch them you don’t half to worry for another month. They are caught with a page out of a calender, like for inst. if you are fishing in September, you bait your hook with the October page of the calendar and they will grab it, think ing they are going ahead somewheres A year from now I will give you an other lesson in what I call the pisca tonal art. <© by the Bell Syndicate.
