They tab with ftshlines six miles longin Winnebago Lake, and use 20, OOObooksou every line. If they don't haul up 2,000 fish every time they lift a line they don't think they are hav ing very good luck, And every fish will weigh from twenty to seventy pounds. That's the way they fish for sturgeon out there. One of these .. . it in half u'v across . nan inn win n-vn j -- the lake. It is a rope an inch in di ameter.

These are tied to the main linn 18 inches anart, aud to bait all the hooks once requires not less than 1,000 pounds of bait. It takes the forty men and twenty boats ten hours to set the line for the first time. After that the fishermen are em- .nlnrriln frolncr over the Hue, haul- rJ " - ing in the sturgeon that nave oeen " eaucht on the hooks and rebaitiug where it is necessary. Th Washlngtiott Post siya ; tfiat ahe Is a great favorite In social circles, antt her fame M aldostenttrelyftaken tipby the numerous demands - mode upon it In every direction, The House Committee on Printing has authorised a favorable report on a resolution to print 10,000 copies of a compilation of the inaugural ad dresses of the Presidents of the Uni ted States from George Washington to Benjamin Harrison inclusive for the first century of Presidential In augurations, with authenticated iu- idents connected therewitn, nio- graphlcal sketches of the Presidents from official sources, together with steel plate portraits of the Presi dents and steel plate illustrations of the Capitol and White House; also, on a resolution providing tor tne printing of 10,000 additional copies of the volume known as the "Growth .f Industrial Art," with some additions. The indications are that Mr.Brow - er.of Mount Airy, who now poses in Congress as the Representative of the Fifth District, will have a vsry rough row of stumps to travel to se cure a re-nomination. The Wll- ' mington Star says that he hasn't - panned out with any of the numer ous promises he made in the late canvass, and the way he has divided out the oatronatre of which he has . .. . t - - bad the distribution has riled many of the faithful, especially the colored Contingent which stood by him so unanimously at the last election , They are kicking against the way h has ignored their claims and are now talking seriously of putting up a col ored man to run against him if h should be nominated. There are several Democratic candidates men tioned, any one of whom ought to be ' 'able to shake the very boots off of ! him. -. Senator Ingalls Bays that Harrison will be a candidate for re-nomina tion.. The State Chronicle remarks: The Democrats ask nothing better than that the Republicans should re-nominate the present occupant of . the WThlte House. He has made less impression upon the public and done less to win the people than any man who has been President since his grandfather, who died shortly after his inauguration. The sentiment of the country Is that he is the smallest man who has been elected to Chief Magistracy In the history of the re public In every local election held . In Indiana since Dudley bought the Presidential election the Democrats have made gains. This rebuke at home, as well as in Ohio and Iowa ' looks ominous for the fulfillment of .. Mr. IngalF'B prediction. Petitions and protests in respect of the tariff are beginning to make their appearance in the Senate. Sen- ator Manderson presented protest? from the farmers of Dodge and Pierce counties, Neb., and Carroll county. Iowa, against any material reduction on sugar, and their petition for the encouragement of and promotion of the beet sugar Industry. He also presented a protest from the cigar makers of Plattsinouth, Neb., against the adoption of the tobacco schedule In the House bill. They suggest a I duty of fifty cents a pound on all to , bacco Imported, whether wrappers . or fillers, and $r a thousand on cigars. " They al6o protest against the dis- - play of an import stamp on all ci- - gars made in reign countries and sold in the V- I:ed Ktatee. ' t.
