Joe Jefferson’s ''Kentucky'’ Reel. 
The late lamented Joseph Jefferson and ex-President 
Grover Cleveland were lifelong friends. One particular 
bond of sympathy between the two was a tireless de¬ 
votion to the art piscatorial. Probably no two men ever 
owned a liner assortment of tackle, and none certainly 
maintained a more active but generous rivalry in pro¬ 
claiming the especial superiority of some article for 
which he developed a decided preference. On one point, 
however, they were unanimous, both agreeing that the 
Milan “Kentucky” reel was the most perfect of its kind. 
When the will of Mr. Jefferson was read, it was dis¬ 
covered that, from among many other things of greater 
intrinsic value, it was his “Kentucky” reel, a favorite of 
many years’ standing, that he bequeathed to Mr. Cleve¬ 
land — a touching tribute surely to the unbroken friend¬ 
ship of a lifetime.— Adv. 
With the growth in the United States of the game 
preserve idea, grows also the demand for animals to 
stock these preserves, and since native game is becom¬ 
ing hard to obtain, it is natural that we should turn to 
Europe for our supply. Among those who furnish such 
stock is Julius Mohr, Jr., Ulm a. D., Germany, whose 
agent for the United States is Mr. R. A. Wenz, Yardley, 
Pa. There’ is hardly anything that Mr. Mohr cannot fur¬ 
nish, from game birds and animals for the stocking of 
parks to wild and dangerous animals for the use of 
zoological gardens and menageries. Pie has all sorts of 
water fowl and pheasants, live capercailzie, black game 
and Hungarian partridges. Persons contemplating stock¬ 
ing their preserves will do well to consult Mr. Mohr. 
Messrs. Elroom & Co., of Calcutta, India, dealers in 
polo sticks and balls, have established a high reputation 
for their goods. They also deal largely in bamboo, and 
not only polo players, but all rod makers, amateur and 
professional, should communicate with them and find 
out what arrangements can. be made for getting their 
goods into this country. Most bamboo which comes to 
this country passes through many hands. It will be 
worth while to consider the question of going to head¬ 
quarters for one’s supply. 
Few things are more important than the headgear that 
one wears in the woods. Within a few years many 
people have adopted the practice of wearing in the woods 
clothing unlike anything in nature, in the hope that by 
this means they will protect themselves from the rifles 
of the deer hunter. This idea has been adopted by the 
Western Hat and Mfg. Co., Department B., Milwaukee, 
Wis., for the reversed cap shows staring red, and only 
a man who is color blind could think it part of a deer. 
Canada is the great hunting ground for caribou and 
moose, and each year more people go to that northern 
region in search of great game. The advertisement of 
Sr. Laurent guarantees successful sport, and the hunter 
who purposes this year to go after the big game of the 
North, will do well to inquire further of the advertiser.
