FLOODS IN IRELAND. 
Terrific floods swept through the rivers of 
the south and west this week, particularly the 
Shannon, and a terrible amount of damage has 
been done to the spawning-grounds. As-the 
floods fall It will be found there has been quite 
a number of salmon and trout swept out of the 
rivers mto the low-lying grounds on the river’s 
banl^ Miles and miles of the lower parts of 
the Shannon are flooded for hundreds of yards 
over the banks, and many farms are completely 
submerged, and several hamlets and villages are 
more or less under water.—Fishing Gazette,

ORIGIN OF WOMAN. 
After the last meeting of the Royal Albert 
Fishing Club, a discussion was started by the 
Captain, Mr. Livingston. You can say what 
you like about the Darwin theory, said he, but 
you can call this the Jim Livingston theory, and 
you’ll find it nearly correct. You’ve all heard 
of the story of the creation of man, and how a 
rib was taken from him to create a woman. 
He was taken down for his rib at midnight, and 
an angel was stationed under a big gum tree 
to hold the rib until the sun would rise and 
shine on it and transform the rib into a woman. 
There being a long wait from midnight, the 
angel had partly dozed off, when a large ape 
stealthily climbed down the tree, hand over 
hand, grabbed the rib and skeltered back to 
the highest branches. The angel realizing the 
enormity of his loss, tore up into the tree just 
as it was nearing sunrise, but the monkey .was 
just out of reach. At last the angel was able 
to_ grab the ape’s tail and hung on with all his 
might. The monkey, in turn, clung steadfastly 
to the tree. With such a struggle taking place 
something had to give, and the monkey’s tail 
came out by the roots and down came the angel, 
a solikar (what’s a solikar, anyhow). While he 
was standing at the foot of the tree ruefully 
surveying the tail, the first morning’s sun shone 
forth in all its glory, and throwing its beams 
on to the tail transformed it into a woman, and 
to this day that’s what makes them so mis¬ 
chievous.—The Angler, Australia.
