SIRE ANS BEING DEPLETED.
SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE TO
PROTECT THE FISH.

In four years from now, at the ,ate it
is going on now" said a fisherman to a
Helena Independent reporter, there
won't be a small stream in the state from
which a man can take a nice mess of fish
in an afternoon. What with the endless
number of sportsmen who go after fish
~legitimately with poles and the dynamite
ing that is lone and the hunting for the
market, all in disregard of law, as far
as the last is concerned, the streams are
being depleted at a rapid rate. There is
all the difference in the world between
this year and o u years ago. 1t is an in
dication of what four years more will do.
1t stands to reason that the fish have got
to have a chance to multiply, and they
don't have it in the way the game laws
are now enforced.
THE trouble with the game law agita-
tion that has been had at each session of
the legislature in the past few years has
been that it has been divided W W
extremes. A part of the fellows who
want game laws are the men who cause
the suspicion in the mind Of the granger
hat the dudes are fixing up a little snap
for themselves. They are apt to be too
extreme in their ideas of the open and
close season and details of thai sort. Thu
fact is hat the essential of a good game
law is a provision for its enforcement. A
game law that gave us game wardens ard

the birds in the woods would be worth
more even if the open and close season
didn't meet the views of rye Pri-
vate game wardens are all right. but war;
lens ought to be paid and the state
should pay them.
THE state of Minnesota had reached a
pass something akin to ours when it dis
covered that something woul have to be
done or there would be no fish or any
thing else. 1t passed a law for the ap-
pointment of game wardens and the re-
suit was that in one year it took in $25, 900
more than enough to pay the expenses Of
the game wardens. And the law is en-
forced, relatively speaking; the streams
are becoming stocked again n there IL
game and fish for everybody.
'There is one thing hat ought to be
done right away, though, and that is the
stocking of the streams of the state. I
am told that the government will give us
all the fry we need and there ought to be
a movement among the sportsmen to
raise money to defray the expenses of
transportation and so forth. A few mil
lion young fish put in the stream now
would be something in our favor. But
not even the remote rivers of the state
have escaped the ravages of the sports
men. Fifty rods are whipping the streams
to where one was 10 years ago. The iso-
lated localities are all the more favorable
for the use of dynamite. 1t is getting to
a bad condition of AFFAIRS"

SCENTED LAST NIGHT.

The Bittner Theatrical company scored
a great success at the Grand opera house
last night in the presentation Of a lively
comedy entitled, Running for Congress"
Mr.. Bittner, as Jack Medford, the Jeffer-
sonian democrat who was elected to con-
gress as a protection republican, has a
role in which he appears at his best. Wal
lace Hopper, as Mr.. Bunyon, J. B. Fulton,
as Colonel Murray and Ella Bittner and
Mile Stevens are especially deserving
of mention for faultless work. Mrs. G.
O. Mcfarland, wife of the manager of the
Grand opera house, surprised her friends
in the character Of Anne, the adventure
ess. Mrs. Mcfarland Won golden opin-
ions from the audience by her clever in
depreciation of the character.
The specialties between acts are a
pleasant feature Of the entertainment
the vitascope pictures being especially
enjoyable. Running for Congress VIII

He is about II years of age and has an
abnormal appetite for watermelon. In
order to satisfy this craving for the lus-
cious fruit yesterday he appropriated a
melon from Rosenstein's stand, on West
Broadway. and was executing a very
quick getaway when taken in tow by an
officer. AS a result he spent the night in
Jail. When his name was called in court
this morning he burst into tears and ad-
mitted his guilt. Judge Sullivan called
him to the bench and talked to him
kindly.
"All boys are fond of watermelons, but
they should not steal them said he.
will you promise never to do such a
thing again if l let you go?"
The lad swallowed a Sob, promised
faithfully to be good in the future and
departed.

a woman named Mrs. Mary Mckay was
arrested at the instigation of Mr.. Johns
on a charge of malicious mischief, she
having. it is alleged, torn away an ad-
9unct to the house mentioned. She had,
1t seems, been occupying the house and
mad built an addition to it. When she
got ready to move away she tore down
the addition and employed Witt to haul
the boards away. When he began load
ing his 81 young Johns came out
with the gun and threatened to shoot
him, but J. B. Knight, constable in Jus
tice Smiths court, caught him. The boy
was released on bonds. This morning an
other chapter was added to the trouble.
A young girl called at the county attor-
ney's office and told Deputy Alley that
Mr.. Johns had disturbed the peace in her
presence n a complaint accusing Johns
with the offense was issued and sent to
Justice Bliss court.
A complaint charging Harry Frisby
with disturbance was issued by the coun-
ty attorney today and filed in Justice
Smiths court. Frisby was arrested by
a policeman yesterday on the allegation
that he had made improper demonstra-
tons toward a little girl named Annie
Fairchild in Renshaw hall alley. This
morning some of Frisby's friends called
on the county attorney and preferred a
charge against him for the purpose of
having his bonds fixed, in order that his
release from custody could be secured.
Among them was w. Rice, a millwright,

In Justice Smiths court at South Butte
yesterday, August Weinke was bound
over to keep the peace, his bond being
fixed at $500. 1t is alleged that a few
days g Weinke threatened to knock
out the brains of Adam Schmidt. The
latter stated on the witness stand that
the trouble grew out of the fact that last
year he, as boss of one of the depart
ments of the Parrot smelter, discharged
Weinke, but Weinke alleged that it or
iginated over a mining claim located
about four miles from the water COM
pany's reservoir. Schmidt owned the
claim in the first place, and, according to
Weinke, told Weinke he had not done the
representation work, and he could go and
locate it. Weinke said he located the
claim and had possession of it when 9TH
ers also staked it. Schmidt then took a
lease from the last locators inc Weinke
proclaimed he action an infringement on
his rights.
