OF LANDING NETS.
A Sarcastic Isaac walton Describes his
Experience with Them.

A s.rcaat,o Isaac walton Describes His
Experience with Them.
Anelers will hear with tempered en-
thusiasm that new landing net has
been invented. The impossibility OF
doing either with or without a landing
not reminds the learned of what the
Roman sage remarked about wives
with no landing net how are you to
secure a fish. either where the banks
are steep and grassy or where you have
to wade far out from the beach2 The
irst problem occurs in the Test and most
southern streams; the second in large
Waters like the Tweed and Eden. In the
former case you bring your trout to
submission. but how are you to lay
hands on him9 The moral victory Is
yours. You have beguiled and dom
mated a subtle and spirited opponent.
But the base world refuses to credit
the triumph unless you have the trout
to show. Generally you bring him to
the edge of the bank and then try, very
gingerly, to lift him by the gut. Then
he gives a plunge the hook leaves It's
hold and off he goes. The plan of lead
ing him into ditch and walking half a
mile to the head of the ditch, where he
may be stranded, is tedious and undig-
nified.
In wading far out from the beach it
Is laborious and unsafe TO wade all the
way back, but it is very difficult to
grip a trout in midstream. Northern
anglers. therefore, use landing nets
nearly half as long as the rod, which
they carry in the left hand, a weariness
to the flesh, though a staff and com
fort in wading.
The southern has invented many
lodges. There are telescope net han
dies, which should shoot out to the
requisite length if everything goes well.
There are nets with hinges and springs,
which rust, and refuse at critical mo-
ments to open or shut Then the ma
chine has to be carried suspended to
something. and when you most need it
it is said you cannot unhitch it. There
you stand, the rod in one hand, and
fighting for dear life with your landing
net Or the wretched thing gets un-
hitched when not wanted and falls on
the long grass, which you do not dis
cover till you most need its assistance.
A landing net is always in the way
when not wanted, and out of the way
when most in demand. The new one
lis suspended from the shoulder by
the web band of the creel, but creel
is as great burden as landing net,
and is usually empty. Here are the
plain, simple directions for use: "Catch
hold of the handle with your left hand,
pulling it up at right angles to you,
with the net held closely between the
left arm and body; then, with thumb
and forefnger (still using the left
hand), undo the catch, pull, turn
and push, and it is Free" Verify,
this does not read like an easy task for
4 nervous man, fustered by that rare |
event, the hooking of a large trout.
Perhaps the best plan, after all, is the
northern one of carrying a simple land
ng net in the hand, or let us loose the
rout when we have established our
moral superiority, and discard impedi-
nenta. London Saturday Review.

THE INDIAN PROBLEM.
How a Man Who Knows Them Would
 Solve It.


 From the Tucson Citizen.
 In talk with Mir. Frank Porter, Dep uty United States Marshal, who knows the Indians of Arizona as we'll as they know themselves, having lived on the San Carlos reservation among them for the last ten years, he made statement that all Indian troubles in Arizona--and for the matter of that, anywhere--are due totally to one or more of three things whiskey, cartridges and tiswin.
 Tiswin is probably the worst source of trouble of the three. It is a beverage they make for themselves, and from 1t they set beastly drunk. It Is made from corn, by placing the cereal in stone jars and soaking for three days, when it will sprout. After it has sprouted they grind it, put roots in, and set it away to fer ment. It is of mild taste, and when drinking it one would not imagine that its effects are so powerful. The Indians are very fond of it, and improve every occasion to brew it. At San Carlos the making of it is strictly forbidden by the agent in charge, and when an Indian is found making or drinking it he isquickly put in the calaboose.
 The whiskey they are less fond of than the tiswin, but their love for it is part of their reputation. They get it at San Carlos from outslders--principally Mex icans-who bring in and disburse 1t on the sly.
 Cartridges are another of the ambi- tions the Apache To strives for. He has guns, and to take them away from him is useless-besides they are his private personal property, for which there is no deprivation. What he lacks, and what he must have to go on the warpath with, are cartridges. He would purchase them under the pretext of hunting purposes, were he allowed, but this excuse being denied him, he must get them as he does whiskey, from Mexicans from out side the reservation.
 In the case of the White Mountain In- dians the Government is becoming aware of the source of the present evils. They are no longer issued ammunition, and the strongest measures are being taken for the prevention of smuggling the cov- eted articles into the reservation limits.
 That's the solution of the whole busi- ness," said Mir. Porter. "When the Ari- zona Indians are wholly deprived of tiswin, cartridges and whiskey, and are 80 situated as to make it an impossi- bility to get them, the whole trouble with the Apaches and every other kind of an Indian is at an end."

A. Wonderful New Berry-Originated
% in Oregon-The Matteson.
There has been originated in the
great straw berry region about Turn
or and Aumsville new seeding va
riety, ,propagated by Matteson d Mat
teson. at their RedHill Berry Farm.
The first berries sent to the CAPITAL
JoURNAL office, Salem, last year
were of this variety, and they were
the most perfect fruit in every re-
spect that was shown in this city.
The berry is of deep red clear
through, high flavor, yet sweeter
than most kinds. An experience in
producing the finer sorts of straw
berries, leads the editor of this paper
to say that he does not know OF A
SUPERIOR BERRY IN FINENESS OF
QUALITY in every respect to
THE MATTFsoN.
He has secured the sole agency
from the originators and now for the
first time places a limited supply on
the market. Testing the fruit, and
q description of it's habits, leads the
editor of the JOURNAL to conclude
that it has exactly those qualities
that must be sought after to produce
fine berries in Oregon. 1t is of high
color, great sweetness, rich flavor,
meaty, firm, not watery, no hard
center, and exceedingly palatable.
DESCRIPTION.
The originators have been straw
berry growers for more than twenty
years and call this their BEST" be-
cause they have tried many new
and highly recommended varieties
and found this to possess more de-
sirable qualities than any other. The
MattesOn is an accidental Seeding,
originated from a single plant found
on Red Hill Farm six years ago. 1t
is
AN EARLY VARIETY,
coming four to six days before the
