STOCK STREAMS
IS STATE PLAN
Fish Hatchery Will be Forced to
Limit to Produce Spawn
for Dakota Waters.

Fargo. N. D., Feb. 27.-There is go
ing to be a great campaign of stock
ing the streams of the state with fish.
according to action taken by the state
game and fish commission at the
meeting in this city yesterday.
The board is going to do much work
with the state fish hatchery and has
outlined tentative program for de-
livering a greater amount of spawn
to streams.
The meeting being held today is the
first session of the hoard this year and
plans were also discussed for the es-
tablishment Of a state game farm for
the purpose of propagating game
birds. E.
The board is especially interested in
two bills before the legislature at this
time. one providing for the shortening
of the open season on game and the
other providing for an open season on
beaver. The beavers are said to be do
ing much damage to forests along the
banks of the various larger streams
of the state.
Those present at the meeting were:
President J. P. Reeves of Beach, Vice
President j. H. Kirk of Bottineau,
Secretary G. NJ. Hogue Of Steele, E. B.
McCutcheon, chief game warden of
the First dictrict at Minot; w. F. Re-

SPORT NEWS IN GENERAL
HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WILL Be
IN CITY THIS WEEK TO ATTEND
annual BASKETBALL TOURNEY

the greatest number of rooters along.
This team has made a wonderful rec
ord this year and it has been due
mostly to the unusual support that
the residents Of that live little city
have given and to the coaching of r.
B. Murphy. Reports ernanating from
Michigan indicate that every live fan
in that city will be here to watch
their team carry awav the laurels as
the supporters Of the five feel certain
that the district championship is as
good as won already.
Petersburg will not admit that
Michigan is going to have the balmy
end of the scores, although the high
school team Of that CITY has taken
couple defeats already this year from
Murphy's proteges. Petersburg fans
contend that the tables will be turn
ed on the university court. Petersburg
and Michigan are old rivals and the
fans of both cities hope to see the two
cities come together in the final game
of the district tournament, when the
championship will be decided.
Out Devils Lake and Bathgate way,
optimism is also paramount, and ru-
NOR has it that there will be some-
thing doing when these teams hit
their stride with title laurels at stake.
st. Thomas. Langdon and Pembina
will also be here with big contingents
OF supporters and will be ready to
clean up the Lakers or any other
team that is put in opposition.
Every indication points to keen
competition in every event and each
team entered will be strengthened by
the best available athletes that can
be obtained.
Many fans contend that the strong
Michigan team, which has a record Of
12 straight games and no defeats,
will fail to get into the state tourna-
ment as this aggregation will be the
one team most feared and all visiting
Quints to be put in opposition will be
prepared to deliver defeat. 1t is also
rumored that several of the teams
permitted Michigan to win, in order
that the true strength of their aggre-
cations would not be discovered dur
ing the preliminary games which
brought no laurels.

CANADIAN NOW
IN BEST TRIM
Of HIS CAREER
"Kid" Bruny Down to Weight
and Promises to Give Visitor
Drubbing.
Deitz Brothers Will be on Pre-
lininaries-Keller and Zespy
Will Battle.

The stage is all set for the big ath-
night when some of the best boxing
artists in the northwest, will meet In
the squared circle in what promises to
be the most attractive athletic enter
tainment Of the season. Abe Man
tell. Canada's cleverest lightweight
boxer, arrived in the city today and
claims to be in the pink of physical
condition. He declares that he W1D
run no chance of taking a whipping
from Kid Bruny of Milwaukee as he
has too big q reputation to uphold.
Bruny holds the same contention,
and realizing that he is in the embryo
stage. believes that he must take the
measure of the Canadian to esta ablish
his name on the list of ring perform
ers. Bruny had to drop weight for
the Manitoba champion but he is now
down to 134 pounds and can take off
the other pound easily. The two men
will weigh in tomorrow afternoon at
o'clock.
Bruny does not doubt but that he
can stick through eight rounds with
two months Of strenuous training and
is in perfect physical condition. He
will rely on his clever footwork to
get away from Mantell's punches and
believes that he can get across
enough vicious jabs to check his op-
ponent. Bruny will be supported by
the fans from both cities, as he is now
a favorite in local sport circles, and if
he is defeated by.Mantell, it will cause
no little disappointment.
Pieliminaries Good.
Several fast preliminary bouts have
also been arranged. Deitz brothers
will open the card with a NIT per-
formance. Every fan in this section
Of the state is familiar with the work
Of these boys and little need be said
relative to their ability.
Young Keller and Zespy will be
among the feature performers while
Jack Collier and Roy Mason, colored
lads, will undou btedly put on the fast
est number Of the evening.
A big turnout of fans is assured for
the event, as it is probable that this
will be the last attraction of the kind
for the season. Arrangements have
been made to seat over 500 in the
Commercial club rooms auditorium
Ring side seats are now on sale at the
Council Cigar store and at Jim Od-
ber's barber shop.
| Jim Odber and julie Alrick are the
promoters of the show.

A OONTENTED CITY.
That Is What tho Australians Call
Adelaide.

Adelaide.
Adelaide's unusual plaza business
section surrounded by a zone Of 1000
acres Of park lands, beyond which are
the residential sections-seems de-
signed to put business cares. recrea-
ton and quiet home life in separate
compartments. The organization Of
city life to allow for leisure-a feeling
more prevalent in Adelaide than in
Melbourne, or even in Sydney, and al
most unknown in American cities-is
partly responsible for the universal
impressions among visitors that Ade-
laide ranks high In general culture.
Both climate and the high quality
Of South Australian pioneers are also
factors which have helped to make
Adelaide such q desirable place Of
residence. Those who are attracted by
the climate, people and manner Of
life of the foothill cities Of southern
California, who care for out of door
life and flowers and fruit, and wish to
spend week lends in nearby mountains
or at the seashore, would feel at home
in Adelaide.
Most writer's on Australia profess to
see differences in types and manners
In the three leading cities of the
commonwealth, and the natives feel
sure that differences exist. Melbourne
is "hustling," Sidney is "easy goine''
Adelaide Is "solid" and "contented. !"
On the basis Of short acquaintance
these characterizations seems as un.

FARGO COLLEGE
wins FROM A.C.
Coach Watkins Five Scores Vic
tory From Home Town Farm
ers-Movold Out of Game.

Fargo, N. D., Feb. 27.-In a fast
and hard fought basketball game the
A. c. quint went down to defeat at
the hands of the Fargo college toss
ers by a score of 27 to 18, last night.
Captain Movold, star forward of
the A. c. team, was out of the game
on account of sickness. The team
lacked the confidence usually shown
when Movold was leader. The farm
ers were able to hold together for the
first half but at the end Of the last
period went to pieces.
The first half started out with no
unusual playing. 1t was not until
Hauser made the first basket that the
fireworks started. The game then
showing the fastest basketball ever
seen in Fargo. The advantage SEEM
ed to be with the A C. men the first
half as the Hilltoppers were unable
to connect with the basket. After re-
peated trys by OVERLY, Peterson ard
Lane they managed to find the hoop
for two counters. The whistle stop
ped the first half with tie score OF
10 to 10, the Fargo boys connecting
with two more baskets and two fouls
while the Aggies had five field has
kets.
Both teams returned with deter
mlnauon to come out on the long
side Of the final score. The Aggies
started with a great burst of speed
that made it look like win for them.
Fargo's men, however. rallied in
great defensive onslaught which
checked the Aggies for time. The
splendid team work Of Watkins men
was now shown to be the strongest
offensive feature against the state
men. Hauser, who had been playing
the floor and trying to make the
scores also. had reached the end Of
his endurance.
Hauser. Peterson and Hayes were
the stellar players for the losers while
there was no individual stars in the
