THOUSANDS OF DEAD FISH
Peculiar Situation Caused by Evapor-

Arrivals from Clear Lake last night
reported that Swan lake, the big reser-
voir eight miles from the town. is dry
ing up so rapidly that thousands Of
fish are stranded on the bank, filing
the air with a terrible odor. This
lake" so dear to lovers of piscatorial
pleasures. has a unique history that
now seems to have reached its closing
chapter.
Built many years ago by a number
of eastern capitalists, the reservoir is
described as containing several small
natural lakes or pools. Z, 500 acres, and

the gang was raising a genuine rough
house when the officers swooped down
upon them and attempted to round
them in. The men didn't propose to be
taken in and for the next few minutes
there was about the liVeliest fistic mix
up that has been seen there in some
time. The officers reported that they
