upper reaches, where the stream is mar
row, the fish wheel is used with much
profit, resulting in indiscriminate
slaughter of the fish.
Gill nets vary in length and depth.
Few are less than 1, 400 feet long, while
a large number are /, 800 feet, with a
depth of from 90 to 35 feet. The size of
the mesh varies from seven to ten
inches. After the net has been dried
and received any repairs necessary it is
transferred from the rack to the boat,
being placed astern in such a name as
to make the casting a simple task.
Nearly all the fishing is lone in the
dark, most Of the men abandoning their
work as daylight approaches and going
home after depositing their catch at the
cannery or fish station. Catches aggre-
eating 3, 900 pounds are made OCCASION
ally, while at other times the nights
work is hardly sufficient to pay for re-
pairing the nets.
The method of seining is radically
different. The outfit of a seiner consists
Of ten men, four horses, seine, a large
soow and a fiat bottomed boat, and his
operations are necessarily confined to
favorable portions of the beach or to
slightly submerged islands, which at
low tide afford an opportunity of haul
ing up the seine and removing the fish.
The seines used in the Columbia are
about /, 800 feet long, graduating i'll
depth from 16 feet at the ends to 160
feet il the center, their value being at
least 81, 900.
If a good location can be secured, the
fish trap is the most profitable salmon
catching device in use on the lower
Columbia. The trap consists of four
| parts-the lead, the heart, the tunnel
and the pot. The lead is formed by
| driving a row of piles from 200 to 300
| feet long, and along these, from the
| sand or bottom of the river to a point
above high water mark, stretching net
ting which has been previously coated
with tar for purposes of preservation.
At the end of the lead is the heart, also
constructed of netting or trap web, in
the shape of the organ from which it
| derives it's name. AT the lower or mar
row end the heart opens into the tun-
mel, which is also formed Of web with
out ends, and tapering toward the pot,
a distance of ten feet. At its junction
with the latter the tunnel is almost
two feet in diameter, the other end be-
ing four feet, but once inside the fish
are secure, the action of the water on
the small aperture through which they
enter being such as to make escape al
most, if not quite, impossible.
HOWARD SPENCE SINCLAIR.

this counts for much. Aside from this,
he is much more popular with the i'm
perialists than his brother Victor ever
was. He is good soldier, and has many
Napoleonic traits that are absent from
the character of his older brother.
Prince Louis was born in the chateau
Of Meudon on July 10, 1854. He was
educated for service in the French army,
but after his father, the late Prince
jerome, was expelled from France he
entered the army of Italy. Resigning
his commission in that service in June,
1889, he travelled for six months, and
in the following December he entered
the Russian army as lieutenant colonel
in the dragon regiment of the king Of
Wurttemberg at Mini Novgorod- Some
time ago he was transferred to st. Pc
tersburg with the rank Of colonel In the
ozarina's lancers. The young imperial
list is a great favorite at the Russian
court. and has made many warm friends.
Prince Louis is a silent, reserved, self
controlled man who has been careful of
what he has done and said in past
years. He looks as though he might be
depended upon in case of an emergency.

SALMON BY THE TON.
HOW THE GREAT CATCH OF CO.
LUMBIA RIVER is MADE.

With Immense Nets the Salmon Fish
ers Drag h Water, Sometimes
Getting 5000 Pounds of Fish at n
Single HauI-The Chinook.
Every year enough salmon to fill 50O,-
900 cases are taken from the Columbia
river and canned. A case of salmon
would be as much as q good sized fam
lily would want in a whole year. OF
course the Columbia river does not fur
nish all the canned salmon used, but 1t
furnishes the best. From Alaskan wa
tiers were taken in 1897 enough salmon
to fill nearly 1, 900, 900 cases.
There are several varieties of salmon
found in the Columbia, but the best OF
them is locally known to the Gamers
as the Royal Chinook. 1t is found in no
other waters. It's special merits are the
firmness of its flesh, its delicate flavor
and rather large proportion of oil. The
