What is believed to be q new spc- cies of salmon has appeared in the Skeena river this season. and fisher men are puzzled at the strange fish. lt has never been seen before, either in the Skeena or any other British CCumbia river.
 In appearance the new salmon re- sembles both the sockeye and the humpback, being described as a cross between the two. It's markings seem tD include characteristic spots and cclorings of both fish. and the dorsal fin. while distinct from tieher of these species, appears to he a modification of both.
 The new salmon is of large size. and is splendid food fish. having rich SO highly prized by canners. The run of this strange. and SO far as known. CT tirely new species. has hcen large this season. and fishermen will watch with interest for it reappearance next summer.
 In other ways the salmon run on the Skeena has been remarkable this seq son. The spring salmon. so named because 1t is usually the first to make large schools late in the season. The oldest fishermen on the river cannot remember such an occurrence before. Prince Rupert Empire

Horse Throws Him Against a Barb
Wire Fence-Brought to the
Hospital.

Howard Whitson, fifteen year old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. M. Whitson,
who has been working on the W. A.
Campbell farm, met with a painful
accident yesterday morning. While
moving hay he had occasion to need

Upon his return he found that one
of the horses had his foot over the
wire. Howard attempted to extri-
cate the animals foot but the horse
reared and plunged, throwing the
boy against the fence until he was
very badly cut about the hands and
limbs. Help came to the boy and a
phone message was sent to his faith
err, who went out with his car and
brought his son directly to the hos
pital, where his wounds were dress
ed by Dr.. Wyatt.
The boy is still confined to the
house, and will be obliged to use
crutches for a few days. 1t will be
some time before he RECEIVERS from

Roy Fisk's Mother.

Our readers are familiar with the
case of Roy Fisk, former member
of a Webster City base ball team,
who, after leaving Webster City be-
came assistant city clerk of Newton,
Iowa, and became involved in spec
ulations and was finally sentenced to
the penitentiary. A few days ago
his old mother, despairing of secur-
ing pardon for her son, committed
suicide at ColfaX by throwing her
self from third story window, the
facts of which were published in the
news columns of the Freeman-Trib-
une. The affair has called forth
many expressions of sorrow and SYM
pathy and is the occasion for the
following timely observations by
the Marshalltown Times Republican
A woman, in despair of obtaining
a parole for her son who is in the
penitentiary, took her life the other
day at Colfax. Her case is a pitiful
one and has more than a passing in
terest in this community where the
son was once and in a way well
known. The boy had been sent to
school and to college. He was a

TRAGIC DEATH OF
PHILIP HANDEL
Son of Mrs. Fred Beerman Suicides
at His Home in Meriden,
Connecticut.

!, Philip ]. Handel of Meriden.
Connecticut, son of Mrs. Fred Beer
man and brother of Mrs. F. J. Drake,
former well known residents of this
city who now reside at Galesburg,
Illinois, and also nephew of City
Councilman John Essig, passed away
Tuesday morning by an act of his
own hand. Mr.. Handel took his life
by shooting himself while under a
spell of mental alteration and was
found only few minutes afterward
in the packing room of the Handel
Art Lamp Manufacturing plant
which he owned and conducted. Mr..
Handel was well known to many
people in this place and vicinity,
having visited here several times at
the Drake and Essig homes.
DR.. and Mrs. Drake and Mrs. Beer
man, who went west several weeks
ago, received this sad and tragic
news after they had just completed
the Yellowstone park tour and the
dispatch awaited them at the park
exit. DR.. Drake sent word to Calvin
Young of this city while en- route
to Connecticut from Yellowstone
park and later a Meriden, Connecti-
cut, newspaper was received by Mr..
Essig, giving the particulars con-
corning Mr.. Handel's tragic end.

Sylvan Beach at the Cavana sanitar-

went to New York to meet their
daughter, Miss Kathryn Lane, when
she returned from abroad. Howev-

was crowded and if they would wait

bright fellow and athletic, a good
ball player and rather popular
young man. Perhaps mothers can
imagine the pride of his mother in
her manly son. Mothers are espec-
tally tender toward their man chill
dren when their shoulders broaden
and they assume the protecting air
of manhood with the toga virilis.
And when he came home and was
given a position of trust by his
home town it is not hard to under
stand her pride and her dependence.
A little "club," considerable booze,
much poker, the usual procedure
of the weaker dead game sport of
membership in the CLUB" of the
smaller town, speculation of city
funds, the inevitable discovery, pen
itentiary, mothers shame and sor-
row and unavailing effort to secure
pardon for her boy, and then desper-
alton and self-infiicted death. There
is the story. The son in the peni-
Tertiary, the mother in her grave.
Perhaps now the Club" if it still
exists, will again hand in its indi-
vidual keys to the club room as it
did when the first tragedy in the
Fisk family shocked the town of
Newton.
There are weak boys everywhere,
boys the sole dependence of moth ers,
young fellows who lack the equi-
poise and counterbalance of caution
which keeps the harder headed from
disgrace. Some one always goes
wrong under the influence of the
"club" the eXclusiveness of which is
cover for much that may not bear
publicity. The tragedy is inevitable
1t is logical conclusion. Not always
such disgrace as this or such a ter
rible and pathetic finale, but tragedy
nevertheless.
Who is his brothers keeper? That
query must come up in this case as
it was asked when the first mother
mourned over dead son and walled
that he was not. Surely we who
walk carelessly past the youth on his
way to shame and sorrow shall feel
the partial responsibility that is ours
follow use like our shadows, the
sense that we have denied as Cain
denied the right of brotherhood
which is protection of the weak by
the stronger. Fiske perhaps, de-
serves small sympathy, che was old
enough to take care of himself" but
we never grow too old for mothers
to care for us and suffer for us and
die for us. The shadow of her agony
and the uselessness of it and the fin
al and despairing act of her life
should go far toward abolishing ev-
cry little, vicious club in Iowa where
drinking and gambling are carried
on behind closed doors. Mrs. Fisk
did not suicide. Circumstances COM
bined to destroy her.
