Mr.. J. G.. Spencer, owner of that popu-
lar resort known as Sylvan lake, came
down from the hotel on Wednesday last
and upon being interviewed gave the fol
lowing interesting report: Some parties
fishing in the lake last Monday caught
two mountain trout, one weighing -
and the other 5 pounds. This is pleasing
news, for although it has been known
that the lake contained many fine trout
yet for some reason they never would
bite. 1t has been presumed that the
lake contained so much for the trout to
eat in the way of small fry that they had
no occasion to take the hook. Now it
may be presumed that the stock of small
fry is becoming exhausted and the trout
are getting hungry and will henceforth
furnish some sport to the visitors at the
resort. This will add very much to the
attractiveness of the lake, as heretofore
there has been nothing but the exquisite
beauty of the scenery which has drawn
so many people to the place. Now that
it is known that the sport of fishing is
added to the other charms Of the place
the attendance during the season in 1904
should double that of 1908, and IT may
be found that further hotel accommodate
tons will be required to meet the de-
mand. Mr.. Spencer is a very conserva.
tive gentleman, and has made scarcely
any effort to advertise his resort to which
nature bestowed so much Of grandeur
and beauty, and to which by his own
wealth and good taste he has added SO
much of elegance and comfort.
