WHIPPING STREAMS
FOR FINNY BEAUTIES
Los Angeles Fishermen Trek to
Mountain Pools in Quest
of Wary Trout

Trout, the fisherman's joy, and the
variety of the finny tribe which most
strongly entice the angler to throw
his hook into the pool, has become
leading snare for many of the South
ern California anglers and the follow
ers of Isaaz Walton who have hitherto
been casting for surf in the briny deep
will pack their bait cans and suitcases
and journey into the mountains where
the king of fishes holds sway.
Parties are leaving Los Angeles daily
for camping and fishing trips into the
foothill resorts where there is a quiet
pool which affords a hiding place for
the finny beauties and coming back
with the anglers tale and a real de-
scriptIon of what trout tastes like
besides. From Scotts camp reports
are coming in of full creels and hun
cry game and the anglers are flocking
in that direction in punches. The San
Gabriel is becoming known amCng the
southern anglers as the Mecca of the
trout and the news of the find is
spreading among the eastern lovers of
the sport. Los Angeles and environs
is becoming noted for it's fishing. Not
only in gigantic tuhas and sea bass is
the lure of the Pacific spreading
among the eastern sportsmen, but the
trout records are becoming feature of
the "back east" letters and the local
streams, the Bear -alley country and
the San Gabriel, Bear creek and the
pools Of the San Bernardino mountains,
Santa Paula creek and the Fillmore
trout holes and a score or more of the
mountain trout habitations hereabouts
are becoming as famous as the ancient
joke in regard to the Los Angeles river.

BLACK BELT IN CHICAGO
AWAKE UNTIL DAYLIGHT

CHICAGO, July SIN the 'black
belt" on the south side, the streets were
filled with men, women and children
until daylight this morning.
In the noise that ensued, a hundred
different expressions of exultation were
yelled, but the one distinguishable cry
was
"Oh, you Jack"
Later this was heightened to "Oh,
you Jack Johnson"
Withal, the bedlam was good natured.
White people passing through the mob
were made butts for boisterous wit,
but without malice. Scores of the
negroes were arrested, but not for
crimes. They probably will answer to
charges of disorderly conduct, for chok-
ing the streets and blocking traffic.
The women were as wild as men in
the excitement and the children copied
their elders.
Saloons of the district were without
owners. Bosses had Joined the mob
and barkeepers were held in their posi-
tions only because Of the pressure out
side the bars.

heads bandaged or showing other evil
dences of their participation in last

BILE in the eventNof Johnson's victory,

OGDEN ROUGHNECKS DARE
JOHNSON TO LEAVE CAR
Trio Insults Negro, Then Jump on
Platform and Promptly Get
Kicked Off

OGDEN, Utah, July Slack John
son was greeted by a crowd of 5000
people when the train tC which his
private car was attached pulled into
Ogden. Johnson appeared on the plat
form and in response to desultory
cheering said:
well, people, turned the trick and
I'm going back to Chicago to my old
mother. I went out there determined
to turn the trick and l had no trouble
doing it."
After shaking hands with a few COL
ored admirers Johnson returned to the
car and seated himself at an open
window beside his wife. Three burly
young toughs walked up to the open
car window and applying a vile epi-
thet to Johnson in the presence of his
wife dared him to come to the plat
form. Johnson started to his feet, but
one Of his companions drew him down
again. The young toughs rushed to
the rear platform where one of them
was met with a kick from the foot of
one of Johnson's trainers and mouth
ful of tobacco Juice full in the eyes.
Officers rushed up and forced the
crowd back. The doors of the car were
locked and the conductor waved the
engineer to pull out. Several threats
of shooting were made by the tough
element of whites that had gathered
in the vicinity of the car.
JOHNSON GAINS MASTERY EARLY
In speaking of the fight, Johnson said
that in the first few rounds. when he
rushed Jeffries back several times, he
felt that he was the master Of the situ-
alton. The crisis of the fight was
reached in the seventh round, said the
champion. In this round he landed an
effective stomach punch, followed by
blow to the jaw. He said that he knew
then that Jeffries was at his mercy.
George Cotton Of Johnson's training
staff said: when Jeffrles and Johnson
clinched in the eighth round Jack said
to jeff: I've got your measure, Mis-
tab Jeffr1es, and am going to put you
out any time want to-"
AS result of the experience here at
the union depot, the railroad officials
placed two detectives on the train to
accompany the champion as far as
Omaha.
Johnson intends going direct to New
York, where he opens his theater en-
gagement Monday evening. In the
party with Johnson was Tom Flana-
gan, his manager; George Cotton, Sig
Hart Walter Monahan and Prof.
Burns, his trainers.

A physician who made a speciality of
