The GAZETTE is now the Oldest
paper in the State, ard with few
exceptions the oldest il the coun-
try, and its usefulness has been de.
monstrated and appreciated during
the NINETY.oN YEARS of its exist.
ence. In its columns has always
been found g mirror Of passing
events and the careful chronicling
Of the history CT what is going on
in the world has ever been its aim.
1t is always welcomed in the house
hold, while in the counting room
and work shop it has become in.
valuable.
The GAZETTE, situated as it is SO
close to Washington, the great GEN.
tire of news, enjoys daily the bane-
fit of the ASSOCIATED PRESS DIS.
PATCHES from every part Of the
world !; hence its patrons can read
from its columns in the evening
what has transpired that day in ey-
cry portion of the United States as
well as from every part of the hab-
liable globe. Consequently it is
an everyday occurrence for the
GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals about
twelve or fifteen hours earlier than
the morning papers.
Correspondence from Washing
ton, Richmond and every sactlon of
the State is published regularly,
and all events Of interest occurring
within the bounds of the Common
wealth are to be found in the COL
umns Of the GAZETTE.
The local department. furnishes
full and complete history of every
thing that occurs in and near the
city, and this feature will, as ever,
receive careful attention.
Another feature that serves to
make the GAZETTE great desider-
alum with merchants is its after.
noon market reports from all the
great centres OF the country.
The GAzETTE's circulation in this
city is now larger than at any time
in its history and is steadily increas-

As sn example Of the work done in this
vicinity by the u. S. fish commission, we
are glad to relate the following: Capt. A. II.
Bellatiy Of this city, who il In the employ Of
the commission at Green Lake. accom-
panied by the necessary men to assist him. es-
tablished temporary spawning quarters at
Branch Pond this fall. The work WINS in the
nature OF an experiment, but the experiment
proved TO be very successful one. Sixty-fve
trout in all were taken, weighing from two to
five and one-hslf pounds each, eighteen males
and forty-seven females, and more than one hum
dred and ten thousand trout eggs were taken
and transferred TO the government hatchery
at Green Lake. In doing this not only were
the spawns secured snd insured OF proper
protection while Matching out. but the
fish were all returned TO the lake. The
deadly poach,r, who with his spear and net
in years past has been killing these splen-
did fish. finds his opportunity gone. 1t lisa
wel-known fact that one man last year de-
siroyed over sixty Of these large trout while
on their spawning beds. 1t seems u shame
that with the amour, Of money appropriated
by The State for the protection OF its fish and
game no more efforts have been made to
punish such acts.
