STEELHEAD TROUT
GLADDEN. THE
ANGLERS

The ardent anglers who have been
waiting impatientIy for the steelhead
fishing have been made happy by the
announcement that the bar at the
mouth OF the Russian River was
opened on Thursday night. There
have been countless thousands OF the
steelhead in the ocean outside this
point awaiting an opportunity 10 go
up the river. and this gave them the
desired opportunity.
The weather is ideal for the fisher

Is clear at the present time and the

usually about eight or nine ounces.
For lure they use the rcd ny. shrimps.

This is made OF either copper or silver,
or all silver or brass. The spoons are

for still fishing from the bank
The steelhead range in weight from
three pounds TO twenty-five

The sport is opening unusually carly
this year. as the fish did not come in
until late in December last year The
fishermen are prepared for the opening

stream during all the time the fish are
there. This sport comes in TO supple
ment the exciting times on the trout
streams and always finds the men of

turns for the men who know the habits

that man applied for work at the

and employed John F. Nugent, Esq, TO
assist in their defense. This they

This property carries a well defined

Eagle mountain and the characterist tic
rich gold and silver bearing ore for
which adjacent mines are noted. An
adjoining property, still further to the
southeast, known as the Burro, was
operated by its owners during the past
year and mill run made that is said
to have yielded better than $50 per ton
in gold. The vein is we'll defined for a
long distance. Its continuation, how
ever, to the south from the Burro is
capped over by flow of rhyolite, and
while nc ore groupings can be found in
consequence of this obliterating cap,

virgin and presents some excellent op-
portunities for speculative develop

ingiis, Miss Callas, all in colonial and
dainty empire gowns representing her
as young matrOn, Mrs. Hamilton and
Mrs. G. Crete in neat silk gowns and
lace, representing her at the age of 30;
Mrs. Hastings representing her in din
ner costume of black silk with lace
over dress, at about forty years; Mrs.
Tullis and Mrs. Mills in black lusUer,
with white andkerchief, representing
her at the age of 45. The ladies all had
their hair powdered and wore the Gus
tomary black patches as beauty spots,
and such an array their husbands
would scarcely have recognized them.
Aftera spirited game OF whist, at which
Mrs. Davey won first prize and Mrs
Hastings consolation, came a tour of
around the world, guessing the names
of the large cities, at which Mrs. Mills
VOL the prize. After which they were
all invited by the hostess to an adjon-

one finding her place by her name be-

The decorations we're simply beauti-

flags, with Ratchet decorated with
red, white and blue ribbon lying at the
foot of the tree. Festooning of miu-
iature hatchets fell from from the
chandelier to the corners of the table,
being finished with carnations aud
smilax. The table (well can't tell it)
fairly groaned under all the delicacies
of the season, aud uLder the soft red,
white and blue lights, the hand painted
china and cut glass fairly shone. An
other decoration worthy of note was

miniature flags aud lit up by shaded
red, white and blue lights The lunch
con was enlivened by music from an
adjoining room during the entire course.
Those invited were: Mesdamrs lug
