LIGHT RUN OF SALMON.
From News Received July the Alaska
Salmon Season Will Be Short.

From information received from
Nushagak yesterday the hatcheries there
Are not having a good season or had not
had good season up to July A, the day
that the information left Nushagak. This
is accounted for in many ways. The
season has been cold, the temperature
running from 26 to 40 degrees. Other
climatic causes are cited which would
explain the scarcity OF fish.
News was received by the Alaska
Packers Association and also the Alaska
Fshermen's Packing Company The
news given out at each place is corrobo-
atisc
The force Of men, many who are
from Astoria, who are at work at the
hatcheries, are expected home about the
end of this month. The season is about
ended at that point in Alaska and it
will take two weeks eafter the season
closes to get ready for departure. From
the different reports received it appears
that the run at the hatcheries has been
very light, perhaps only one-hal of
what it was at the same time last year.
The fish that are taken are King, Silver
sides and Pink species.

tan assembled his council. and II was
declared a law that, 20 avoid a similar
calamity in the future. neither The
Sultan nor any OF his successors

Il Is a well-known maxim OF Turkish
law and religion that the Sultan IL free

not difficult to imagine TO what out

be carried by a ruler who, by educa-

naturally inclined 10 the qualification

custom which Is a partial corrective

the inhabitants OF the capitai city.
No woman resident IN Constantinople
can be chosen or purchased for the i'm

bought In Circassia, Georgia, Anatolia,

unfortunately too true that the cases
are rare when they are taken against
their wills or the desires OF their pa
