VOYAGE OF A SETTER.
T. d. Liaville had valuable young English
setter stolen from him few months ago, and
although a sharp lookout was Instituted Tor The
much priced beauty, no trace OF the missing
could he found until recently a sportsman who
is intimately acquainted with Lnvie returned
10 this city from Honolulu aud stated that he
had seen dog there which very much resem-
bled the stolen canine. LinylllIe Immediately
acquainted friend who visits the Islands
quite frequently OF his loss, and few days ago
the handsome English setter was returned TO
lis master. This instance proves that many
valuable hunting dogs which nave been spirited
away from this city were shipped 10 foreign
ports.

James A. Richardson of the State Fish Com
mission states that lie has just completed the
placing OF 10000 fry of the rainbow trout in
Permanenta and Stevens creeks, near Mountain
View, and II was only a few weeks ago that he
placed 30 900 fry in the Los GaioS aud CalaVeras
creeks in Santa Clara County; also $4,000 young
fish which were distributed III the island streams
oil Monterey.
IN PRIVATE POND.
A sportsman VINO is a wel-known resident OF
Los GaIOs stated last week that tho yoliHg hsh
above referred TO were not placed IN the Los
Gatoss Creek, but that the CONSIGNMENT OF eyed ed
DIR. Knowles and placed IN a small hatchery
which lie (knOwles) had erected In The immedi-
ate vicinity OF the creek. Owing to incOmpe-
tency III the handling OF the eggs the first lot per-
ished, but the last consignment did fairly we'll
and about Is 900 Try were taken from The hatch
cry aud placed in private reservoir, where the
little beauties" now be seen sporting In
their element. The Los Gatos sportsman doubts
very much If the doctor Intends that any OF the
fish IN his preserve shall be taken from the pond
10 stock the public waters of the creek which
needs stocking very much.
PUBLIC PRESENTS.
The rainbow trout Is handsome and gamy
fish and a native OF The klamath River, In
SiSkiyou County. Last spring Superintendent
Of Hatcheres Woodbury. had temporary fish
trap and hatchery erected at the mouth OF
Shovel Creek, beautiful mountain stream
which emptles into tie klamath, and placed
James 4. Richardson, a gentleman who thor
Oughly understands his business, in charge.
The venture was successful and thousands OF
eggs were IaEeu from the fish, which averaged
three pounds and shipped to the main hatchery
OF SskiyOu County AT SlSSOns. from whence tbs
eggs and fry were again shipped 10 the friends
OF Commissioners ROutier and Harvey, who
had made applications for them. Thousands OF
by A.N. Ia Mott, at Glen Ellen, andthe young fry
distributed in a stream which flows through the
North Pacific Land Compauy's preserve. IN The
vicinity of Ukiah.
BASS AND PICKEREL WANTED.
A telegram was sent TO Senator Squire last
Thursday by George B. AdaIr, President OF the
Board Of Trade OF Seattle, asking him to use all
his influence TO have CARLOAD OF black bass
and piekerel fry sent TO Seattle as soon as posi-.
pie 10 stock Lakes Washington and Union. The
request was prompted by lie announcement
that the Fish Commissioner had sent fish to stock
Loon Lake. Alter close examination of the
map Mr.. Adalr discovered that Loon Lake was
diminuIiYe BODY OF water al the head of Clarke
River in Stevens County, on the line OF the
Spokane and NOrher Railroad. and near the
Spokane Indian reservation. lie thought that II
The Government could stock an inaccessible
lake ike Loon Lake with fish, II could give a
supply OF game fish to such lakes as Washington
and Union, on the very edge OF popuous city.
James West OF the Queen City Rod and Gun
Cluo said to Il Post-lntelligencsr reporter:
Black bass and pickere are the best game fish
in America Bass Will rise TO lily, while pick
erei are good for trolling or will bite at min
now. 1hey Will live well together aud with
trout, and Will soon clean out the chub which
abound IN the lakes and make poor sport. Ii
was a mistake 10 stock these lakes with White
fish, as they good for sport. They will
not bite at hook and can only be caught with
a net which Is exactly what we don't want here.
the bass " ill not only occupy lakes but VIII
20 into the streams and stock Them. The pick
erel VIII stay In the lakes. The slOughs OF LAKE
Washington will also make good spawning
grounds for them. The trout fishing IN Lake
Washington is not good because The water IS too
warm near tile shore aud on the surface, and The
trout stay at the bottom where cold springs rise,
and where 1t is too deep for sport
iIf we can get these lakes stocked with game
fish we shall have people coming from the East
for the fishing, Just as they crowd TO Maine, and
shall make this city and State great hshing
resort"
