HORSES OWNED BY OUR PEOPLE

Very few of our people have any
idea of the good horses that are
owned here and the amount of mon
ey they are worth.
Jas r. Mcgowan has bay colt
called Cotillion by Baron Rogers
that went mile last year in 300,
and he has refused 81. 500 for him.
He also has a bay gelding by GAM

sters besides these.
Our genial stablemen, Fesler &
Stevens, have a black gelding by
Wilkes Boy that was tracked about
four months last season and trotted
miles with out skip in 2:154

LARGE SHAD.
Catches Big and Fish Of Remarkable Size arc
Being Taken at Points Down the River.

The Harrisburg Patriot says:
Shad of remarkable size are being
caught at nearby points in the Sus-
quehanna river and the hauls are
large. Two shad taken by local dip
ne. fishermen Thursday were sold to
down town hotel man. They to-
gether tipped the scales at fifteen
pounds and it is said others of the
same size have been frequently caught.
In fact'the shad catches are larger
and better this year west of Columbia
than ever before. Good hauls are
being made every evening in the
vicinity of Duncannon, where a few
years ago shad were almost unknown.
| Large seines have been bought by
the fishermen there and shad batteries
have been erected. The drag Of the
seine is picturesque sight and i:
daily watched by scores of persons.
AT Marietta Thursday eighty-fou1
fish were taken in one haul and forty
four big fellows were taken at Colum
bla. The local nets have brought t(
shore as many as thirty. The larges
catch is reported from cambridge
where aI5 shad were taken in one
day.
| From points along the Juniata rive
come reports of good catches. Few
seines are used by fishermen there
Dip nets in deep eddies and beloy
the breasts of dams are the favorit
means of fishing. This method is sue

Indictments Set Aside.
Hunters Charged With Shipping From the
State Discharged.

Judge Archibald, of the Federal
court of the middle Pennsylvania dis
trlc!, has filed an opinion setting aside
the indictment in the Blooming Grove
case, in which seven New York and
New Jersey residents were charged
with violating the Lacey bill, an act
of congress, prohibiting the surrepti.
tious removal of game from the state
in which it is killed.
The defendants on October 81,
1901, were coming from Blooming
Grove park. in Pike county, Pa, with
satchels containing hundred or more
pheasants, and box enclosing the
carcass of deer, when DR.. Kalbfus,
chief of the Pennsylvania game com.
mission, intercepted them at the rail.
road station and placed them under
arrest on the charge of violating the
Lacey act, in having prepared fol
shipment packages containing dead
animals and birds, killed in violation
of local game laws. Judge Archibald
decided that the defendants were moi
amenable, because the game was moi
shipped out of the state, and there
fore, the offense charged was no
completed.

The New Superintendent,

The Convention of School Direct
ors on Tuesday made no mistake IN
their selection of Superintendent of
public schools. William w. Evans is
a graduate of the Normal School and
subsequently took post graduate
course. He has had a number of
years experience IN teaching, and has
been very successful in that line. He
is young man of fine ability, high
moral character, and attractive man
ners, and is possessed of laudable
ambition to make mark in the world.
That he will bring to his Office his
best energies no one doubts who
knows him. We congratulate Mr..
Evans upon the handsome vote by
which he was chosen, and we congrat-
ulate the schools of the county on
having secured his service.

Our mechanics, carpenters and

them look quite odd carrying big
necks, but this is mumps style.
1t is said that Berwick is boom

BASE BALL GALORE.

Bloomsburg had plenty OF the
national game Saturday. Susquehanna
University opposed the Normal on
Athletic Field, while Berwick and the
new club recently organized at the
Magee Carpet Works battled for
supremacy at Athletic Park. Victory
came Bloomsburg's way at both
places AT the Normal, the game was
slow listless exhibition, devoid al
most entirely, of interest. Only in
one inning did the visitors display any
life. This was in the sixth, but they
were so far behind that the six runs
score J, only served to make the game
appear little more even. Lewis for
Normal, played his position IN fault
less fashion, making three very pretty
catches. The score by innings fol.

are capable of playing good ball, the
work in every particular being most
satisfactory.
