So this is not a fish story after all.
When Sam Kimmel told you that he
caught a string of trout that averaged
a pound each, you believed him, of
course, for everybody who knows Sam
knows him to be a truthful young man,
and that he wouldnt lie, even about
the fish that he caught, or didn’t eatch,
as the case may be. 1 have always
flattered myself with the belief that
my reputation for truth and veracity

aught a whale you wouldn’t believe
me, even if I gave you my solemn as-
| surance that it was no fish story.
Therefore, I shall not lay elaim to hav-

approaching within two miles of him, on
the windward side, will be convinced
of the presence of the leviathan, for the
smell is awful.
The species of whale known as the
grayback is uncommonly plentiful off
the coast of California this summer.
So abundant are they that a number of
vessels have been in collision with the
monsters of the deep. A good-sized
schooner was wrecked off the Golden
Gate several weeks ago by colliding
with a whale, and the crew narrowly
aped drowning. The U. S. torpedo
boat Farragut which is at present cruis-
| ing in these waters was kept busy dodg-
school of graybacks while en
route from San Diego to Santa Catalina
Island, recently.
One day last week the excursion
steamer Hermosa which plies bet. een
San Pedro and Avalon, Santa Catalina
Island, ran squarely on top of a giant
grayback in mid-channel. The 400
passengers aboard were badly shaken
up and more scared than hurt, but the
steamer escaped uninjured. Not so

monster wriggled away from the scene
of the accident somewhat painfully,but

apparent.

That Ate of Rattles.
From the Berlin Record.
Our’ esteemed friend Mr. Smith, ¢
the Meyersdale Commercial, was seized
with a bad attack of rattles, last week,
by the appearance of another news
per in his town, and the way he swi
ed around and mixed himself up was a
wonder to the uninitiated. After ad-
mitting that there wasroom in Meyers-
dale for another paper, it chiaracterized
the newcomer as a spite
paper, estab-
tished for no other purpose than to run
Editor Smith out of town. Then de-
claring that no paper in the county
gave Messrs. Koontz and Kendall more
han did the
Commercial, it goes to work under the
head “Settle the Insurgents this Yea
and gives its readers to understand that
the thing for them to do is to refuse to
give their support to Koontz and Ken-
dall. After this mix friend Smith gets
off his usual gag about the rest of the
county papers being weak and puny
affairs, and the Commercial being the
only “paper what is a paper,” and hav-
ing the only job outfit “what is a job
outfit” on this end of the earth.
Well, now, as to the papers of the
county, the Record is ready to admit
that the Commercial is (in Smiths
mind) a regular Sun’s circus and Uncle
Tom’s Cabin show jammed into one,
and that the Commercial job depart-
ment beats a fat woman exhibit all to
pieces; but it is not ready to admit
that they are the whole show. The
Record is seized with the idea (rightly
or wrongly, it would nct swear which)
that there are several pretty good pa-
pers in the that
honest and loyal support t
county, and none o
Commercial, that they must resort to
the
lease of existence.
