STOCK THEM WITH FISH
The Lakes on Higgins Avenue
Soon to Be Utilized.
VARIOUS PLANS OFFERED
Judge Woody Suggests German Carp
but Others Have Notion That the
Mississippi Catfish Would Thrive
Best in the Muddy Water.

Miss.oula. June 13.-The lakes on Hig-
fish The merchants in front of whose
doors these lakes are formed are de-
termined to get some satisfaction out of
them. The lakes drive away business
and, if they can do nothing else, they
are decided that the next best thing to
do is to stock them with fish so that
they will be able to have a little sport.
Judge Woody thinks that the German
carp will be the best fish to place in the
lakes, but others. who have had ex-
perience, think that the Mississippi
cat fish will be the very thing to put in
these sluggish, muddy bodies of water
The matter is to be decided in a short
that the early fall will furnish good
sport for those who like to fish.
These lakes are large enough to prop
erly support fish of some kind and there
are many merchants and others in the
city who are not able to leave town for
a long enough time to fish for trout in
the mountain streams. For the sake of
these men w. c. Murphy, Judge Woody
and others have decided that the best
thing to do is to supply them with good
fishing close at home. A purse has
been formed and as soon as it is deter
mined which variety of fish is best
adapted to the Higgins avenue lakes
the stocking of these bodies of water
will begin and in a short time there will
be the best fishing in the state on Hig-
gins avenue. This move on the part Of
these gentlemen will be hailed with de-
light by those who are fond of sport
and have not the time to go away from
home for two or three days TO crafty
their love of angling. 1t will be very
comfortable to sit in the doorway Cf
Billy Murphy's store and pull in fish.
II will not be necessary to take along a
lot of bait.
George Webster's place is near
enough so that it will be possible for
the fishermen of this class to go there
and wet their whistles before the fish
that takes their bait gets away. The
attractions offered by the Copper City
Limited will be greater than ever. A
man from Butte will be able to come to
MisSoula and catch lot of cat fish and
get back to his home in a short time
There will be no weary trampng
through the hills but a comfortable
seat in the store door of Murphy &
Worden's store and plenty of fish. The
plan Of stocking these lakes is an eX-
cellent one and should be encouraged
Alderman Mcbride proposes putting or
these lakes a naptha launch that will
! afford parties from Butte and Amazon.
| da an opportunity to have a boat ride
! in addition to the charms of fishing
| This enterprise on the part of the gentle
| alderman is really commnedable. Alder
man Mix will have to hustle to find 6
counter attraction for his street Hig
| gins avenue has the call.

obtained at the stations. me results are
in some cases far reaching and important,
in others of much less moment Moreover,
the results are in scope and character de-
termined by the training and intelligence
of the members attending. Already from
the stations have come some of the rich
est results in biological science, and we
are not yet beyond the beginning. Among
those problems now beng studied may be
mentioned the life histories of various or
ganisms: the relationships between ami
mails and their environment; the develop
ment of organs under different conditions;
variation of different species relation
ships of lower organisms to commercial
industry the study of food for fishes or
other animals; causes and means of dis
tributon: propagation either to increase
those organisms living or to introduce a
new organism to prey upon some which
may be injurious; to determine what is in
the region and its usefulness and destruct-
iveness. In every locality brafny workers
will advance new and important prob
lens and the longer the Work of the sta
ton continues the greater the Importance
of the work becomes, and the more the
field opens up. 1t is sometimes said that
all has been done that is worth doing.
On the contrary, the bulk of the impor-
tant biological work in research and study
ly put it. when as many graves are filled
by biologists as have been filled by philos-
ophers, theologans. reformers etc, the
results of their work will be incalcula-

of the station a half dozen other lakes
may be reached. none of which abe known
to a greater extent than in location. Dense
forests extend for miles and the forest re-

II is located in charming spot-an ideal
spot Biological study in the schools of
the state is at low ebb. 1t should not
be so. The station will help teachers If
they attend. Students of higher institu'
lions of learning should be quick to see
the opportunities presented by the station
and should go and stay the full time.
Montana is not thckly settled. 1t is use
less to expect too much, and therefore
the station the first year will be but a
starter. Already five persons, including
the writer, have signified willingness to
gratuitously help those attending. A con-
sultation of the prospectus issued will
show that they are all well known for
their ability in the subjects they have
chosen. Students of Montana should look
carefully into this question, should exam
inc carefully the work before the students
attending the station, and should lend
their aid. The station merely offers the
opportunity. A wise man will seize an
opportunity to make for himself a repu-
tation and a name"
