In a three hours' battle with a aionster horse mackerel the other ifternoon, while fishing, three miles off the beach of Highlands, N. J.. DIVES, POMEROY & STEWART ' l* 9 * 4 ~ u '" TUESDAY EVENING, West Osborne. Conrad Anderson and Charles Wardell, Sea Bright's leading deep sea fishermen, lost their nets, and, in all probability, will not be able to use their skiffs for some time. The huge fish was snared In Os borne's net. Osborne thought he had a shark, and motioned to An derson and Wardell, who wer.e ly- On Page 6 Appears a List of Anniversary Specials You Will Want to Read About ing close by, to work in their nets to keep the big fellow from escaping, because the price paid for sharks on the beach is generous. The two fishermen, in 22-foot skiffs, turned to their crew men and asked whether they had better take chances with the supposed shark. In the meantime Osborne cried but that the shark was breaking I HARRISBURG TEEEGRSIPH through his net, and begged assist ance. Immediately the other two skiffs were brought up and the nets sent over the sides. Gaff hooks and shark knives were brought quickly into play, but a sudden leap of the sea monster re vealed that, instead of a supposed shark, a horse mackerel was their prey.

But the swiftly flowing tide was too much for them, and the big fellow broke through the heavy nets. As he was about to escape, having ripped the nets beyond repair, An derson hurled his steel harpoon in to the fish's side. The mackerel immediately went to the bottom, rested a few minutes, then dashed to sea for more than nine miles. Wardell and Osborne tried to hook on and take up the trail with Anderson, but their skiffs had been damaged when the big fellow's tail ripped off part of their sides. $1.41 Anniversary Specials Children's $2.00 Black Kidskin Button Shoes, with patent leather tips, broad toes, spring heels.
