The largest catch of salmon made
on the salmon banks with a seine this
year was made by party of fisher
men from Ballard, Wash, who took
5000 sockeye salmon in one haul in
the middle of the season. The catch
was made by a party of eight men,
who have fished the waters of the
Sound for ten years, and it is pro-
nounced one of the largest, If not the
largest. haul made with a seine.
Leonard Strygen, of Ballard. who
was with the party. in speaking of
the haul, said: I'VE drifted all night
on the salmon banks, which are near
San Juan island, and regarded as the
best of the fishing locations on the
sound. We had an enormous seine.
1t was really more than we could
handle. Just before morning a large
shoal of salmon were seen jumping
in the shallow water toward shore.
We ran them down and let out the
seine.
After rowing around the fish and
closing in on them we were amazed
to find that we had captured a small
scow load of the silvery creatures
This bunch of fish was worth $4,000
1t is the largest catch made this sea

UNEXPECTED ADVENTURE.
Grouse Hunters Get Exercise and
Hunting Not "on the List"


Hunting Not "On the List"
Many and varied are the adventures
that have been encountered by the
Maloney Koeppen-R RAIDER grouse hunt
ing party that has been operating in
the vicinity of Meacham for the past
week. According to MIR. RAIDER who
returned from the wilds yesterday af-
was promised him, and the same is
true of the others. However, they
have found few grouse.
on Saturday the party was camped
about 20 miles south of Meacham, and
when the men returned to camp in the
evening they found their horses had
left them. One of the animals had
cen tied to a chunk for safekeeping,
and as the other horse would stay with
his mate, it was thought the team
was safe. However, the animals had
decided to return home, and not far
from the camp the men found the
chunk from which the tethered ami
NAL had freed itself. AS 1t was get
ting dark the search was given up for
the night. At 4:3O the next morning
Mr.. RAIDER set out with his son to find
the horses, and trailed them clear to
Meacham, 90 miles, the trip being
made before breakfast.
During the afternoon Messrs. Ma
loney and Koeppen secured team
from a rancher and rode to Meacham.
on their way the storm came on and
they were in the timber while 1t pre-
vailed. Trees and limbs were falling
around them, but neither was struck.
However. another man who was fol-
lowing directly behind the two, found
the road barred by large tree which
lay across the road. Nevertheless, all
arrived at Meacham in safety.

constitute a party which has arrived
here from Ponca City, Oklahoma.
These gentlemen were sent here as a
committee of a colony of something
over fifty oklahoma families who re-
sire to to come to this county and
make their home. The people they
represent are all thrifty and many of
them have considerable means to in
vest
The gentlemen are more than
pleased with this section and it is
almost settled fact that the colony
will come as this valley presents the
conditions they are looking for.
They desire to become located in Il
new country where land is not too
high and where they will have a
chance to use some of their rights on
government land. They are satisfied
that some of the 4,721,0O0 acres of
vacant government land in Horney
county will suit them.
The gentlemen will go overland to
Shaniko where they will again take
the train and visit the fair. From
Portland they will return to Okla
homa and report to the people who
are interested.

CAUGHT All IN
SHALLOW WATER
EIGHT LARGE DEEP WATER FISH
TAKEN IN SMALL POOL NEAR
MOANALUA YESTERDAY.

All of the natives along the water
front and the people at the fish market
on King street were excited yesterday
afternoon over an unusual capture Of
fish by three men. Eight large ahi
were taken by the men in little pool
of water at Ahua just below Moana-
lua. The pool was only too feet in
depth. Five of the fish were caught
without net or line while the remain
der were taken with net. The men
were Alec Smith, Jr, Kaaihui and
Kaaea. The fish were very large so
the men hurried back to the fish mar
ket and sold them to the Chinese fish
sellers at a good price.
The strange part of the occurrence is
the fact that the fish were taken so
close in shore. None of the boatbOys
could recall a similar occurrence. The
ahi Is deep sea fish and abounds in
deep water. The japanese catch many
