Even Spanish Mackerel Can't Resist

Tennis Notes

AVALON, Catalina Island, July 2o.-The
Sayonara Rowing club gave an at home on
their yacht Dolphin last evening. During
the evening the members of the club enter
tanned their guests by singing their club
songs, and the captain. Miss Vile, gave
some very clever character readings from
the handwriting Of those present. One of
the features of the evening was the illu-
mination of the boat by japanese lanters
and vari-colored lights. The flare lights
attracted large schools Of Spanish mack
erel around the boat, and some OF the FISH
leaped entirely out of the water In vain at
tempts to reach them. The guests were
Messrs. Turner, Trailer, Lamb, walton,
Lyman, Grossbeck, Jones and Orr. Re-
freshments were served and a crew from
the club, in uniform, manned the skiff
that conveyed the guests to and from the
shore.
Fishing and Yachting Notes
Mr.. Rider and Mr. Macomber were out on
fishing trip yesterday afternoon, and
had some amusing experiences. Mr.. Rider
was out for tuna, and with flying fish for
bait caught two immense yellowtail. but
did not get tuna strike. DR.. Macomber,
not so ambitious, confined his efforts TO
barracuda and yellowtail, but neverthe~
less had two tuna strikes during the after
noon. Both strikes were lost, as he was
not prepared for such big game.
The sloop yacht Restless arrived early
this morning from San Diego. She will
remain here some time, going over TO San
Pedro for the races Sunday. She is count

is owned and sailed by Capt. Clark.
The launch Sunbeam took a large pleas
ure party to Whites Landing and return
yesterday afternoon. On the way down a
trolling line was out, and several good
sized barracuda were caught.
One of the largest catches ever made In
q short time was registered yesterday af-
ternoon from the launch Putting Pig by
a party composed of Messrs. w. ]. and H.
Landers, Miss and Master M. Landers.
With three hours and half to fish in and
three lines out, the party brought IN u
catch of forty-four barracuda. The Ish
were found in one immense school. and
for time there was a fish on each of the
three lines, and 1t took good deal of skill
to keep the lines from being tangled. Miss
Landers succeeded In bringing sixteen fish.
while the rest were divided among the bal.
ance of the party.
The tuna seem to have commenced feed
ing again. and though number Of strikes
are reported none have been brought 10
