ate limits. The five acre tracts will

is to include within the limits only

From “Davy

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 27
(by Associated Press).—“Jack
the Grappler,” as Frederick Link
is known along the waterfront of
San Francisco Bay, asserts that
* he averages an income of $5,000
year, “fishing,” for articles that
have been dropped into the bay
by accident from the ferryboats
and liners. Link says he has
been plying his trade since 18S4,
using only what he terms “edu
cated grappling hooks.”
Diamond rings, wallets, coils of
wire, watches and even boxes of
motion picture films have been
brough up by Link from the bot
tom of the bay. When employed
to recover a lost article he charg
es $2 for his work only upon de
livery of the article.
The pith of ordinary commercial
use is obtained from the elder.
