This is a fish story, But no cne need draw his breath when is it, for-every word in it is vouched @r @ irreproachable gentlemen of the Omaha Park board of commissioners. The ppblic, is well aware of the intentions of that honorable board to drain the Hascom Park lakes and do- nate the million or two of fish in them to the hospitals and the ‘Well, the up- per lake has been di d the fish are there for the hospitals , the poor, if they care to go and dig up. Along back in the hen it was warm weather, the pask missioners de- cided to clean out these lakes, or, at least, the upper one, repave the bottom, where the cattish and fits half-brother, the Ger- muh carp, have loved to burrow, and in the spring see if they could not plant some decent fish, whose tastes did not-run so much to mud. But, when they had laid their plans, there was a golden Indian summer simmering over Omeha, as it has a custom of doing each year, and the park commissioners forgot that there was such a thing as winter in this latitude. So, when they plac2d the date for their grand fishing excursion for January 3, they reckoned without the weather. Saturday oraers were given to begin draining the upper lake, and it was thougnt that by Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock the water would have passed away, except what was held in the lower depth right in the center, and that when the park com- missioners went out at that hour all they would have to do would be to cut a hole in the ice and rake out the fish. For this purpose they each went armed with a Jast year’s garden rake and a basket. ‘The first on the ground was Mr. Tukey. “What is this?” he ejaculated, as he found a lake from which the ice had drop- ped a distance of eight feet and was lying on the bottom, with the exception of the “deep place” in the middle. “Where are the fish?” “All under the ice, sir,” respectfully re- plied the landscape gardener, touching his cap to the park potentate. “That's queer,” Mr. Tukey muttered. and stylish. Double made his discovery the rest of the board put in an appearance over the hill, each man carrying his garden rake and fish basket. They were speedily informed of the wey their plans had gone wrong, and been down at the state fisheries they wouldn't have acted that way. My lish are better trained and have better sense.” “Then it must have been Adams’ fault,” and Mr. Tukey glared at the inoffensive park superintendent, who at that moment came sliding down the bank with a scoop net in his hand. “Here, Adams, this is a pretty kettle of fish you've got us into. What do you mean by such’ doings?” The park superintendent dipped his net in the pool and twisted it around a tew times before repiying, but the only resuit was the “riling’’ of the water and the bringing to the surface of a mud turtle. Then he looked across the pavihoa, then took a survey of the treetops of the park and at last, finding no other way out of it, replied: “How under the sun would I know that the measly ice would cave in this way?” “Please, sir,’ said the landscape garden- er, approaching and touching his hat, “if you will excuse me for taking the liberty of asking, what do you wish me to do with peered into it. There were half a ton of ease and carp frozen fast in the ice and mud. “It's a regular Klondike,” came from the lips of every one present, and with one ac- cord they began turning over cakes of ice along the edge and picking up the fish ly- ing beneath. “There is one,” said Lew May, picking up a ten-pound German carp, “that I put in this lake myself three years ago. I rec- ognize it by that spot on its left shoulder. And when 1 brought it here it was not more than an inch long. How the children must have fed these fish during the sum- mer.” The carp was handled fondly by each member of the board, but as all could not have it, they deciced to make a present of it to the reporter. Mr. Wharton offered to carry it as far as the car, but when they got to the edge of the lake decided that he had to go another way, and laid it down. The reporter then tried it awhile, but he didn’t seem to be very anxious about fish just then, and as a last resort a small boy was given a nickel to carry it up to the car for the crowd. There is about an acre of ground out in that lake which fs covered with fish, and the fish covered with ice. The fish are in a fine state of preservation, owing to hav- ing frozen sclid, and the park board gives this notice to the public that all poor peo- ple of Omaha who want 2 mess of fish can have them by going with an ax and dig- ging them up. Attendants will be on hand to see that no one carries away more than enough for one family. The desire is to have the fish distributed among those who need them. A mar can secure any number in a few minutes, as all he will have to do will be to cut a chunk of ice and pick up the fish. “@ i t variety of handles, in- with beautifal handles.

How a Valunble Right of Way W Secured From the Apaches. From the Dayton News. In 1835 the Gila Valley, Globe and North- ern Railway Company obtained from Washington the franchise for a road through the reservation, subject to the ap- proval of the Indians. This proposed line is to run from Geronimo to Globe, a dis- tance of sixty miles, and is to be practical- ly an extension of the sixty-five miles of road that connect G2ronimo with the South- ern Pacific station at Bowie. A large area of mineral and coal land is to be opened up by thé new line. Since Congress granted the egnditipnal franchise agents have been at wark among the In- dians, but arbitrary refusal was given until the general council was‘caled at San Car- los. Fully 1,500 Apaches were present, and the entertainment of {hem was the first item of cost in the raflro#a construction account. A feast and council was pro- posed, and invitations weresent by means of runners to all parts’ of the Indian do- matin. There were Indians ” whe had_ burned, slain and tortured just’ of natural de- pravity dancing about a he same floor with capitalists from ‘ and San Francisco, soldiers, ladies,‘ frontiersmen, miners and a Sees ‘ot “globe trotters. Every one had to dance. 'The etiquette was explained to ‘all, amd ittwas made evi- dent that if they choseto-be present and take part they must Observe all the-de- mands of the occasion, for a refusal might imperil the lives of all. The dance was ac- cordingly very democratic. Whoever the ee asked to dance with them respond- ed with a smiling assent.
