seventy-six feet deep. The young man
was the 11 of Daniel Downs. a batter.

mother. about noon. told her he was
going insane..and then rushed out oi
the house. He ran in the direction of

ed after him. but she did not see him
jump into the well.
Mrs. William Merrill.
saw him go to the well and lean over
it. and then she fainted. When she re-
vived and told her story to the auth-
orities they were convinced that the
man was at the bottom, but as the
well was very dark and narrow, noth-
Ing codld be seen of him. By means of
1 derrick. grappling irons attached to
a rope was lowered and after nearly
three hours' unsuccessful worn Wil-
liam Palmer volunteered to be lower-
ed into the well and be secured the
body. When the remains were brought
to the surface. it was found that Downs
had a gash in his head and a part on
his skull crushed in. it is the ht that
he struck a stone projecting 1n the
side which rendered him unconscious
and that he probably was dead before
he struck the bottom. There was but
very little water in the well.
His work had been principally on
New York and Bridgeport papers.

That is how the professional fisher-

it is a well known fact that fish must

come to the fisherman. be the latter

well as lake fish. like rocky bottom.
and it is over this kind of bottom that
the best catches are made. it is no
easy task to locate a rocky bed along
the Jersey coast. and even with, ranges
or landmarks one is not always certain
to find it on another day's fishing trip.
The ranges are manipulated this way:
in an ordinary surfboat. such as the
majority of the Jersey fishermen use.
the beach line that looks so white and
extensive close inshore resembles a
white thread at a distance «it. say. lif-
teen miles irom the land. When the
dshermen discover a new ground at or
about that distance offshore. they gene
orally pick three marks on land—one
north. one south and the third directly
to the westward. By bringing these
three marks to a convergence the hap—
hunting ground is located.
As a rule these fishermen are a bit

iness reasons principally. for there
a ripe competition among these beach.
combers. and it is only by playing poo-
sum and keeping‘a weather eye open
that one learns what his rival some-
times knows.
One day last seems a reporter was
in one of these surfbeots eighteen
miles offshore from Barnegat. The
fisherman in charge. of the tiny craft
was heading for a rocky bottom as far
as he dared to go without compass or
provisions. When within a mile or
so of the ground. another fisherman
and his helper were seen at anchor.
They were hauling 11p whacking big
base as fast as they could throw out,
and altogether they seemed to be hav—
ing a glorious time. After the two
boats had separated sufficiently to per-
mit a private conversation the profes—
sional in charge of the first mention-
ed crait said to his shipmatezl
”Did you mark it?"
"Yes.' " answered the other. ”The
pier's to the westward. me life saving
station is to the northward and the
cottage bf that old crank is to the
southward,” '
"That's the way i made'it." replied
the first speaker. All this seemed like
so much Greek to one of the amateurs
in the host who began to ask ques-
tions.
"That's a new ground." said the fish-
erman. "We didn't know that it ex»
isted. Yes. they.are catching lots of
fish. Whydon’tn-hgo hack and try itl
Well. i do not like to imitate people-
at least i do not care to let them see
me copy them. l'll try it some other
day."
it may have been professional pride
or etiquette. this sharp bit of practice.
but in other walks of life it would be
called a‘trick of the trade. it's done
all along the beach. Here's another
trick of the trade that n surfmen at
Belmar taught this landlubberly repor-
ter. There's a schooner that tak the
city folk from Asbury Park offshore
oflshore this particular morning over
half a dosen or more surfboata cluster-
ed about her. The blting was first
class. but presently one of the big fish-
ing steamboate from the Battery was
sighted heading down the beach. There
was an interchange of conversation on
the part of the professional fishermen.
but they suddenly pulled up anchors
as if one man and began rowing ar-
ound. ‘
The schooner weighed her bower also
and under her heedsaile sad mainsalf
reached olshore. Naturally the ama-
teurs wanted to know why a shift
should be made. especially as the
strikes were unusually lively. ”That's
the Hal Oorster coming down." said
one of the fishermen iu'a half whisper
as if thoeeon the steamboat could hear
him. although she was fully two miles
away. "We have a good ground here.
and we-dou't want her pilots to find
the ranges. She'll keep to the south-
ward. and we'll circle around until she
gets out of the way.. That's how we
save our ham"
And they did save it too. The steam
boat kept to the southward for some
little distance and Inally. being unable
toget the ranges or whatever ground
her pilots had in view.” about
