ONTARIO
HATCHERY
OUT OF IT
FISH WARDEN SAYS OWING TO
LACK OF FUNDS THIS HATCH
ERY WILL NOT BE OPERATED
PLENTY OF FISH IN WALLO-
WA BUT STREAM TOO LOW FOR
THEM TO NAVIGATE,

Because of the insufficiency of
the balance on hand in the state
hatchery fund Master Fish Warden
Clanton, who has returned from a
tour of inspection of the state sal
mon hatcheries along the Columbia
river and it's tributaries, announces
that he will make no attempt to
operate the Ontario hatchery, the
largest in the state, this season and
that, unless there is a generous
freshet soon to permit the flow of
the Wallowa river from its present
low stage to permit the fish to as
cend the stream, the results from the
Wallowa hatchery will not be so
great as in the past which will oper-
ate to tighten the yields of the state
hatcheries materially as compared to
former seasons.
Mr.. Clanton says that the waters
of the Wallowa river are lower this
season than ever before, in fact there
is not sufficient volume of flow to
permit the fish to ascend the stream
to the spawning grounds. Immense
pools formed in the stream below the
hatchery were found by Warden
Clanton, by doffing his clothes and
into the ponds, to be literally
alive with salmon, which will go up
the stream to the spawning grounds
with the first freshet and sufficient
eggs will be realized to produce
big yield of fry before the spawning
season closes. The conditions at
other hatcheries visited were not so
serious or aggravated as at these two
stations and an average yield of
eggs and small fry is expected.

CHARGE is
PIRACY ON
HIGH SEAS
HUGH j. THOMPSON, A SEATTLE
BARBER, WANTS TO GO HUNT.

Thompson a barber, his wife, his
wife's sister and crew of five able
seamen are all locked up in the JEFF
ferson county jail today and
must face charge of piracy on the
high seas.
The alleged pirates were caught
on board the schooner Vida after
an exciting chase off WILDLY Island
by the revenue cutter Arcata The
demand for their arrest came from
United States Marshal Hopkins, who
charges that the barber-captain stole
the ship from its moorings while it
was in the custody of the United
by the Arcata, the name of the
schooner had been changed to read
"EIvira" and it was only when
Thompson was confronted with the
Vida's ships papers that he admit
ted his ship was sailing under false
colors.
Thompson was on his way to the
South seas. He planned to form a
colony to be known as Cashkopy-
tonka in Peru and all those willing
to join the expedition in search Of
golden ingots were invited 10 come
along. Thompson's wife and her
sister and five others took the
chance. The departure was de-
layed, however, by Louis Shedding,
who libelled the schooner on a
claim for $500, and the United
States marshal seized the craft
where it lay anchored off West Seat
tie
Yesterday Thompson and his par
ty boarded the Vida and set sail
The absence of the SCHOONER was
soon noticed and the revenue cutter
sent in pursuit. Had the Vida
gained one hours start she would
have been in British Columbia wa

stay the progress of the voyage for
