Portable captivity where many yarded together

such cheerful citizens, and they do many drol
things that the average visitor works overtime in
watching them. l have learned the language of our
bears sufficiently that whenever hear of them

In warning threatening an enemy, the soth
bear says: "Ach! Ach! Ach!" and the grizzly
says: "Woof Woof!' A fighting bear says
"Aw-aw-aw!" A baby's call for its mother is
"Row Rowl" A bears distress call is: 'Ew-

Such occasions not rare and | recall one

The auto-boat was bounding along at full speed
in smooth water and suddenly shot out into the
strong wind that came around point. At the
moment a large school of tunas in out of the
deep and charged flock of fliers. The latter went
spinning into the air in DOZENS resembling with
their lace-like wings huge dragon-Hies There ap-
peared to be nearly one hundred of these large
fiers in the air at time; and as they left the
water the wind caught them and lifted them higher
and higher until they twenty thirty feet
above the surface; then they turned and swept
down again toward the water with graceful swoop.
1t then that fired and took them to the
right and left, the bOatman casting off in the small
boat with scoop-net to secure them.
My companion shot one at height of twenty
feet, and as it fell with crash a tuna just below

helm senseless on the deck a large
flying gurnard had hit him on the
temple, knocking him down.
So well protected are these fishes
that it is difficult to shoot them, and
they are of little or no value.
None of the flying fishes, and the
several species are found in many seas,

They fly directly ahead, and when
they turn it is because they tip up

the fiers start fifty feet away and
strike the steamer head on, or soar
over my boat when the slightest move

sea they appear to go down into the
holloWs of the waves and rise out of
them; but this is because the air
forces them up.

- tempted to secure specimens of the
Atlantic flying fishes which eaped from to
wave by shooting them. They active that
it was difficult feat; but in California waters |
had better success. Here a singular sport, with
the great California flying fish game has devel-
oped. The latter is three times large its
Atlantic relative provided with enormous side-fns
or wings, while two the tail also important
in supporting the fish in its remarkable flights
against the wind
The waters of Southern California abound in
remarkable fish, known as the leapng- tuna which
preys upon the flying fish; and from June until
August these waters are the scene of eXtraor-
binary exploits the tuna flushing the flying fishes,
when the gunner, if he is prepared shoots the flying
game, which affords all the sport of woodcock
quail.
An automobile boat is employed for the purpose
The sportsmen sit in the bow, one each side,
and all being ready the boat is sent over the tuna
grounds at full speed. The boat alarms the fishes,
which lie the surface and they hear the rush,
and see the great black form coming they believe
it to be a tuna and with a violent screw like motion
of the tail hurl themselves into the air then spread
ing the fins or wings, assuming position parallel
to the water, about a foot above it.
1t is that the sportsman takes them. One
rises just ahead and goes spinning away, caught by
the wind and lifted into the air. 1t is cleverly
knocked by the port gunner the at the
wheel stopping the engine and the ier being picked
up in a scOOp-net and kept valued tuna bait.
The launch speeds on again, and presently two
fiers rise. One scars straight ahead the other
bending to the right, SO resembling the blue water
that it is almost impossible to distinguish it, and
the sportsman misses it. for it is by no means an
easy shot. Now the boat is sent around in a circle
and it shoots into a school of hyng-hsh they
in all directions and the gunncrs are demorazed
In such furry | have a flying fish dash at

big black eyes staring in hypnotic manner, its
four large wing-like fms stiff and fixed. not moving

as it passed my head, but let it escape.
On another occasion fying-fish struck my
companion singing blow in the back,
while another bombarded me in
the neck SO violently that | lost my
balance. The flying fish is blunt
headed resembling the gray mulet,
and such fish weighing three four
pounds proves projectile to avoid.
