40 ri
Skaters on Buffalo creek and on
the river are finding great number
OF fish. catfish principally. in the ice.
Some of them are very large. Several
fish that have been gotten weighed as
much as six pounds. 1t Is thought
that some one whose regard for the
law is very little has been using ex.
plosives to kill the members of the
finny tribe. An investigation will
probably be made by the game and
fish warden and II any substantial evi.
denee can be gotten that dynamite
or other explosives have been employ.
ed by iehthyophgists and the culprits
can be unprecedented. there viii be
arrests made and the parties viii be
prosecuted and brought to Justice.
