An odd wager which will interest the fishermen of McHenry has just been made by J. W. Krueser, owner of Krueser's hotel on Pistakee lake, with 3. Anderson, a Chicago business man. After an argument as to the merits of the different lakes in regard to fishing, a wager of $850 was made that a team of two men conld catch more large mouth black baas in two days' fishing on Pistakee lake than in any other in a radius of three hundred miles of Chicago in the same time. Jos. Haas, clerk of Cook county, was accepted as stake holder, and George Bingham, one of the state's game war- decs, will act as referee. Dr. Benson, a Chicago physician who made a record catch of sixty black bass in three days on Pistakee lake last spring, and Will Duttnill, resident of Fox Lake, or Walter E. Follett, of the Chicago Daily News, will the team selected by Mr. Krueser. Mr. Anderson will name his men later and says that boW of them will be Chi­ cago men. The contest will take place in June.

JUonfcf Oood to Washington People. - The Daily Transcript, Little Falle, Minn., Tuesday, April 26: P. W. Blake has received. advice from bis attorney in Washington that his idea as to a nut lock to be used at points where the rail­ road rails join, seems to be a novel one and that no such a patent has bean ap­ plied for. The new idea which Mr. Blake is having patented is a lock which the in­ ventor believes will take because of its simplicity. Over the nuts, which are through the fish plates and rail, is dropped a bar in which have been cut groves to correspond with the surfaces of the nuts. The surfaces of the nuts and grooves of the bar are tappered in such a manner that when the bar ia dropped over the nnts and into place, a dovetail is formed and the bolts secured against slipping. The inventor holds that after these locks have been in­ stalled the work of maintaining the road will be considerably lessened. . . Lion Fondles a Child.
