Jones of Westches<ar, zhe a $10 BOD; $5 CREEL, ONE “PUMPEIN SEED" One of the popular supernumeries of the local police force is an ardent fisher- man and as a general rule has pretty £00d luck. A story is going the rounds Which does not reflect much credit upon his piscatorial ability, It seems that the ol4cer bought a §10 fishing rod ana $5 creel and other equipment necessary to a day’s angling. The officer started out in his seven passenger limousine for Gardner Lake. 7lie day looked fine for a big catch, the wind was just right and everything was perféct. The officer put boldly forth onto the lake, baited his hools and cast. This operation was Tepeated time after time throughout the greater part of the day, but the new fish basket remained as clean as the mément it left the store. Just as the sun was casting long shadaws across the lake the tired, yet hopeful, fisherman made a long cast. His line whistled through the guides on his pole and the bait dropped gently into a likely look- ing stretch of water, He waited a mo- ment and then came a slight tug at the line, then another and then the line started to slide out gently. The fisher- man was all attention, at last his vigil was rewarded. He played the fish with great skill, let it run and then bringing it to boat, All set with lapding net to capture his prize he watched eager- Iy for old John Biss to come to the surface—but, imagine his disgust, when 2 measely little “pumpkin seed” dangling on hig line. This was the last straw and the fisherman weighed anchor, pulled for the shore and was soon homeward bound. DISCOVER OND INDIAN BURYING GBOU” What was evidently many years ago an Indian burying ground was dug into at Noank by men in the employ of D. E. Doyle & Son, while they were loading sand into trucks at one of the sand pits on the Ecclestone place in Fishtown. Three skeletons were uncovered within a small area and this fact together with the position in which the bodies were placed leads to the bellef that the spot was a regular burying ground and not a single grave such as have been found quite often in these parts Stories to the effect that there was an Indian burying ground somewhere on the Ecclestone place have been hand- ed down but the exact location was not known, re being no distinguishing marks, al f any of the old settlers knew the location they did not make it known, or if they did divulge the in- formation. it has been forgoiten Due to the nature of the land which is mostly sand, the bones were well pre- served, even the bones of the fingers and toes being perfect. One of thg skeletons was that of a veritable giant, the skull and bones of the torso being twice the size of any of the others that were un- covered. It is impossible to say how long the bodies were buried, but it must have been at least 130 vears, while in all prob- obility it was much longer ago than that.

DISAPPOINTED Geneva, Sept. 2—(By the A. P.)
