HIGH WATER HAS
MADE OPPORTUNITY .
FOR FISH SUPPLY
THE SPAWNING SEASON NEXT
MONTH WITH STREAMS ALBUM.
DANTLY SUPPLIED.
GOVERNMENT CAR OF BASS
Birds, Too. viii Be Plentiful When
Shooting Season Opens, Should
Weather Conditions be Favorable at
Breeding Time This Summer.

! While the high waters in Duck
liver and tributary streams has been
causing considerable trouble and
working some damage in places, the
nimrods hereabouts are saying that
there is finer prospect for good fish
ing this summer and fall than there
has been for several years.
The high water in the river has
come at season of the year when
the fish are travelling up stream If
they can, and these numerous rises
have afforded them an opportunity
at the right time. This will also abun-
dainty increase the supply of fish
next spring, as the spawning season
will be on next month, and the extra
fish that these rises have given will
help to increase the. hatchings for
this season. Sucker, red horse and
trout spawn in the order named, and
should the weather be warm next
month and free from extra rises in
tine river, there will be more fish
next spring than has been known
for years
The government fish commission
promised lot of stock for Duck riv-
er last fall but the supply gave out
before they reached the local reuuisi-
ton, and the commissioner has prom
Iised to place Maury county near the
head of the list this year, and thus
insure car of bass for stocking the
stearms here. This will supplement
the abundant supply that is promised
in the present conditions, and the dis
ciples of the rod and reel here are
taking much comfort over the out
look
Bird hunters too are getting much
satisfaction out of, the fact that the
past winter there has been much
less hunting than usual and al
though the winter was severe, there
were more birds left than The close
Of the season generally finds Many
reports have reached them aof almost
unbroken coveys- in various sections
Of the county, and with favorable
weather conditions during the laying
and brooding season the fields will
TEEN with Bob Whites this fall when
the shooting season opens.

AND THE SANITARY INSPECTOR
WILL RlGlDLY ENFORCE THE
CLEAN UP ORDERS.
WARRANTS TO FOLLOW NOTICE
The ockup VIII Be Used as Work
house and Those Who Are Out Of
Employment VIII Be Given Work
on the Streets.

The move along order and vagran
cy laws are to be rigidly enforced
from this time forth, was the cdic1
OF the mayor at the city hall Thurs
day night at the regular meeting Of
the board, and the aldermen all ap
proved.
The city physician also sent out q
statement that the sanitary laws
would necessarily have to be enforc
ed whether it was the disposition Of
the city to enforce them or not, on
account of the more rigid state status
If the state laws, and the determined
manner in which the state inspectors
are looking after the compliance
Herewith. 1t was stated by the au
thorities that the sanitary laws will
be enforced without regard to per.
sons and that after due notice has
oeen given warrants will be issued
where there is not a prompt compli
ance. 1t is thought that by this
move the city will be saved mucn in
The way of lime and disinfectant ex-
'penses, which have heretofore been
necessitated and have been rather
heavy.
Another item of expense is ex-
pected to be decreased is the streets.
in the enforcement of the yagrant
law the city lookup will be used as
a workhouse, and the Migrants will
be worked on the streets, and much
work that has been requiring an out
lay of cash will be done by these.
1t IS a matter of much qualification
to his many friends that judge Err

to take up his work as city recorder
with the expiration Of his present
leave Of absence, which occurs Sat
urday or Monday.

against Evelyn y. Thaw. wife of Harry
X. Thaw. to recover $2,O24 for goods sold
and delivered, reported to-day to City
Court Justice Lynch that there was no

was discharged, and the case will be
tried again in January.
The Gorham Company asserted that
Mrs. Thaw ordered the articles on an
individual credit. She Contended that the
goods were ordered in the name of her
husband as necessaries. and that he
should be compelled to pay for them.
The jurors could not agree as to whether
or not the goods. including ornaments and
jewels, were really necessaries.

Smith Has His Work Cut 0ut
For Him Handling Bad Actors,
But He's the Lad Knows How

pOY MORAN goes to the Pacific
Coast league. The announce
ment comes from Washington and
settles the fate of the former At
lanta outfieIder, still, by the way,
resident of Atlanta.
Moran was given only a most
casual tryout by Manager Griffith,
and it was believed that he would
order Moran to report for spring
training. However, it is evident
that the Gray Fox must have dug
up ancient dope and modern opin-
ions, and decided against the fleet
footed eX-Cracker.
D ILL SMITH is up in the air over
- the case of Pitcher Waldorf.
He has never seen him work and
has to form his views by studying
the records and by asking opin-
ions. And both are very various.
A couple of Waldorfs games
make him look like the best pitch
er in the world. The rest make
him look like the biggest bum. Most
of the dopesters think the knock
kneed lad is a bowling farce, ard
50 do most of the players. On the
other hand, there are a few who
believe that there is an ff-Chance
the big eX-Cub has some real stuff
in him. EXActing Manager
Whitley Alperman is one of his big
boosters. He thinks Waldorf has
much ability and that there Is
chance that he can make good.
Our own private opinion is that,
because many an ugly duckling has
blossomed out into some swan,
Smith would make a mistake not
to look the man over before getting
rid of him.
AS to the cases of Johns, john
son and Sitton it is all decided
they go to the highest bidder.
This Johnson, by the way, may
in time develop into a pretty good
player. He has as smooth and
easy a delivery as any man who
has ever worked in Atlanta, and his
Kitty league record was fine.
