Eon AFhat TO he successful fisherman in
the .,ters OF Lake Washington. one must
know certain. at least, of the good fishing
grounds and be acquainted with the meth
DDS of the men who know much concern
ing the fish to be found in the lake. Some
persons use the fly to the exclusion OF all
other methods, and 1t is doubtless true
that there is more genuine sport in land
ing gamey fish with the fly than with the
spoon or sunk hook. Anglers are also
very proud OF their ability to cast fly,
and put in much time casting. An expert
with ive-ounce rod in hand will send
the fly in skilful manner from eighty to
ninety feet and bring it back over the sur
face of the water just as gracefully.
Hand in hand with the ability to cast
comes the experience required to choose
the kind OF %y best fitted for the particular
season. Trout are very changeable in
their moods and. while the general rule
followed is TO initiate the flies that are
found near the waters at different seasons,
it does not always prove TO be the correct
one. At present the proper thing TO use
on Lake Washington is a red and yellow
body with gray wings. 4 pure yellow
body answers the purpose nearly as well.
In the brooks and streams that flow into
the lake fy-fshing is rendered difficult by
the underbrush along the banks and logs
In the water. The pleasure of throwing
the fly is also lost. The best method IN
small brook fishing is 10 use a small hook
baIted with iish-worms The bait may be
gotten along the banks of the streams, or
better yet, obtained the evening previous
TO the excursion by overturEIng the sod at
the mouth of drain or at the base
of a manure pile. Old time fishermen
usually dig large supply of worms and
then put them in q tin can packed with
moss. The worms work their way through
the meshes of the moss 10 the bottom, and
when taken out, are clean and bright,
thus becoming excellent bait.
Captain \. X. Leake, the veteran Lake
Washington fisherman, depends almost
entirely upon the troller, and dislkes fly
fishing. When he uses the sunk hook he
almost invariably bats the locality where
he intends to make 4 haul with salmon
eggs. SO far this season the captain has
not done any fishing, and says that he has
observed that all the fish brought in so far
are smaller than usual, the sizes running
from quarter to half pound. The trout
taken from the streams run from three to
six inches in length
OF al the prime fishing grounds in the
vicinity of Seattle. Ed l.. Ferry's pond
near Juanita takes the lead. From this
the owners and those who are allowed the
privilege of fishing IN its waters have
caught some fine fish. Several fish ing ex-
curslons have been planned for today, and
tomorrow there will be no end OF disserta-
tions on tisherman's luck

On Friday and Saturday evenings Gus
Williams will appear at the Seattle opera
house in funny production entitled
"Keppler's Fortunes" Recently the Gin
cinnati Enquirer said of this comedian:
Gus Williams is one of the greatest OF Amerf-
can dialect comedians, and in his play, "kepp-
lers Fortunes he has a great chance to show
his peculiar talents. II is a pretty production,
replete with humor, and made more effective by
many pathetic incidents. The inimitable Gus
met with a great welcome at HOucks last
night. The house was crowded and the per-
Torrance was given a most enthusiastic recep-
ton. AL the interest centers around the WORK
OF Williams as keppier, the German, who is
strong character. Mr.. Williams has a number
fnew songs. every one of which made hit.
His burlesque on Comrades" was encored three
or four times, and in all his musical efforts. the
comical Gus showed that ne has as strong hold
upon the popular heart as ever.

DIsORDERLY PROCEEDINGS.

The Fourth Day of the Meeting of the Shareholders of the Freeman,s Journal and National Press-Mr, Healy Elected a Director After a Heated Discussion.
 DUBLIN, May 19.-The meeting of the
 shareholders of the Freeman's Journal and
 National Press was resumed to day, this
 being the fourth meeting to rearrange the
 directorate of the amalgamated papers.
 Each of the previous meetings has been
 marked by the most disorderly proceedings
 and the one to-day was no exception.
 Shortly after MT. Gray, the chairman, had taken his seat MT. Healy announced that the conflicting parties had come to a satis- factory arrangement. Before he had time to say anything further one of the share holders requested that MT. Healy be called to order, contending that it was the chairman's place to make the state- ment.
 Mir. Healy paid no attention to the call to order and attempted to proceed with his remarks, but his voice was drowned by an uproar of yells and misses and cries of ''order." The confusion lasted until MT. 1Iay AppehleQ TOT R uearlUS, Wueu sOIuo- thing like order was restored.
 MT. Healy then moved that in pursu- ance of the arrangement arrived at MT. John Dillon take the chair. MT. Gray va- cated his seat. whereupon Mir. Quint, declared that MT. Grsy's &C., ton in surrendering the chair was mon strous, and fully justified Mir. Healy's statements regarding him.
 After a heated discussion MT. Dillon was elected chairman. There was another | wraugle over a proposal that was seconded by Mir. Healy to elect MT. Dillon a director, several of the shareholders insisting that | MT. Dillon was not qualified to hold the position. Mir. Dillon was, however, final | ly elected. A number of the shareholders, acting under legal advice, withdrew from the meeting.
