There are an unusually large number
Of nets being either lost or stolen Just
now, and If the latter, the thieves are
sharp enought to leave no traces behind
them. A peculiar and altogether anus
ing story was told the other day by a
fisherman who had his net of 300 faith
oms stolen, under his very nose, SO to
speak The night was very dark, and
as he was paying the net out, the thief
was at the other end pulling it into his
boat as fast as the owner lowered it
into the water of course keeping at a
respectful distance. When the robber
had taken up about 25O fathoms Of the
net he cut 1t off from the remainder
and escaped under the cover of dark
ness. The owner discovered his loss
when he went to haul in the net.

II may be of interest to the public to
know that on rough estimate nearly
100000 will be paid out to the Astoria
fishermen during the next ten days.
The gill net men have been singularly
fortunate this season, inasmuch as
nearly all the fish that have been caught
this year have been with gill nets, the
traps being an almost total failure. In
this respect the season of 1894 has been
fortunate one for the fishermen.
