Speaking Terms
With Ghost

HALIFAX, N. S., March 7
The ghost of Antigonish
had callers today. Two
sleighs drew up to Alex Nc
Donald's deserted farm house
at Caledonia Mills. A moment
later DR.. Walter Franklin Pierce,
director of the American Institute
Of Scientific Research debarkcd
and dropped in for a indetermin-
ate stay. He brought his own
food supply enough to last him
until he had succeeded in getting
on speaking terms with the ghost,
reported to have been observed
by Alex and his family, and caus-
ing them to vacate. Dr. Prince
promised daily bulletins of his cx-
perienceS.
The ghost of Antigonish
stirred all Eastern Canada. Nari-
Gus Investigations have been made
but the strange doings continued.
Barns have been set afre, wierd
lights appear in windows of the
cottage house, and other mani
festations, which have terrorized
the community, have been going
on for months. A Halifax report
cl who went TO the scene to inves-
tjgate came back and offered 500
reward to anyone who would stay

Tonight

The stage is all set for the first
game of the championship BASKET
ball series between Newport and
St. Johnsbury tonight at the Con-
pany ID Armory. Promptly at 8.1o
referee Hicks of Berlin will stride
out to the center of the court and
start the ball going between the
rival outfits.
Coach Burch sent his men
through Il stiff practice session
Monday night in preparation for
the contest. "Chick" has just re-
turned from Windsor, where he
has been spending a few days dur
ing the lull in the basketball sea-
son.
The Newport quintet will pre-
sent a far better tonipht than
many of the fans in St Johnsbury
suppose. According to the agree
meat, signed by Managers Caswcll
and Fitzpatrick, the American Lc-
gion-Company L team is permit
ted the services Of an outside pro-
fessional player. Little is known
Of Malcolm, who has been engaged
by Newport to jump center, but
it is safe to say that he has the
goods or else he would not appear
in the visiting lineup.
During the interim Of he past
week or so, the NeWporterS have
been hard at work whipping their
team into shape for the big series
with st. JohnSbury. With strong
acquisition to jump center, the in
vading lineup from the city near
the international border may
spring a big surprise in the camp
of the locals.
Interest in the big game which
has been somewhat ovcrShadowcd
by the city election at Ncw~0rt

political fight ever wagcd at
Newport.
Rufus W, Spear was reelected
city clerk and treasurer over c..
j. Harrison VIII, entered the poll
teal arena but a few days ago
to oppose Mr.. Spear The latter,
/ who has served the city of New
port in that capacity since it has
been governed by a city charter,
received 485 votes to the 285 re-
ceived by Mr.. Harrison.
For the office of Mayor there
were SIT votes, the largest vote,
by far, ever polled in Newport. In
past years it was a large election
that drew to the polls even 800 vo-
ters. The unusual interest mani
Tested in the election this year is
directly attributable to the whole
hearted efforts of the Young Mems
Voters club. The political cauldron
was kept boiling continually since
the organization was perfected
about two weeks ago.
Interest was at fever heat at the
new Armory where 100 people
gathered for the business of elect
ing the city officers for the ensuing
year. Elections were formerly held
in School Hall but this structure
would have been inadequate to
house the throng that turned out
today.
MI. Spears reelection was
championcd by Hon. John w. Red
mond, who said that no one chad
a better record in the state nor in
any other state. City clerk Spear
had organized the financial admin
istration, when the city charter
went into effect, and the successful
functioning of the municipal gov
ernment since has been largely one
to his efTorts, Mr. Redmond said.
The applause was terrific when
Mr.. Spears election was announc-
ed. The very first to congratulate
him was his worthy opponent, c. J.
HARRISON Mr. Spears reelection
came about without any campaign
ing whatever on his part.
Schools at Newport were all
closed for the day, and never be
fore has there been such a wide
spread interest among the women
voters They turned out in large
numbers and were on hand at the
Armory carly this morning.
Mr.. Lindsay's election followed
a vigorous campaign carried on
largely through the medium Of the
new. papers. The choice of him for
mayor is signal victory for those
who oppose the installation of the
water meters. Throughout his
campaign Mr. Lindsay has haycd
the interests of the city which
stood out for the further installa-
tion of meters to regulate and
measure the water from Newport
Municipal-owncd water system.
W. c. Lindsay has already held
several Offices of trust in Newport
where he has resided since 1885,
serving as village trustee and CON
stable.
He is Il member of Orleans
County Bar and has practiced in
State and Federal courts ard was
to the u. S. Customs
service in 1898, and continued in
the service for II years. Eevcn
years ago he built business block !

ductd a gargagc business.

RAINBOW TROUT
IN LOUISIANA WATERS

A new game fish has been intro
duced into Louisiana waters, and one
especially attractive to the sportsman
the rainbow trout. This splendid
fighter IS a native of the Pacific coast,
but has been introduced in different
parts of the globe by fish culturists
on the demand Of sportsmen for fish
that is a credit to the most skillful
fist3fman. Some years ago the Con-
servation Department, through Com.
missioner Alexander, determined to in.
troduce the fish to Louisiana anglers,
and e. A. Tulian, who had had fine
success in introducing them to the
waters OF the Argentine republic, be-
fore he became superintendent Of the
fisheries division of the Conservation
Department, secured eggs and newly
hatched fish from the Pacific slope,
from Wales, England, and Germany.
The fish was first introduced in the
fish pond of DR.. J. G. Gladney of Min.
den, in December, 1917. and splendid
results we're promised, but unfortu.
nately, DR.. Gladney, true sportsman,
died soon after transplanting. and the
pond was abandoned.
Two years later shipment Of rain
bow trout were planted in the creeks
feeding the Tangipahoa river, and in
creeks and other streams Of East and
West Feliciana parishes. BY regula'
ton Of the department It was made Il
legal to take these fish for. three years
from November 10, 1919. but a few
have been taken by fishermen who
knew nothing of the species, and ex.
hibited az new and unknown species
Of trout. They have been observed in
Tanghipahoa streams by Messrs.
Richard and Walter Kent, and in q
few years in all probability this spe.
cies Of trout will be not uncommon in
all the Florida parish streams.
Scientists differ a. to whether the
rainbow trout is an entirely distinct
species. or whether It is a form of the
steelhead trout. The fish is subject to
great local variations, ana the individ.
uals in some streams are 50 small aud
20 brightly colored a. to be popularly
and erroneously regarded as distinct
species. Many anglers regard the rain
bow as the gamest Of all fishes, and
this IL probably true of the typical
trout in California, but it has been oh.
served that those transplanted in
waters east Of the Mississippi grow to
a greater size, but lose some Of their
activity. But this trout, wherever
found, can be said to have few, il any.
sporting equals among the salmon fam.
lily. The rainbow takes the fly 50
readily that there is no reason for re-
sorting to grasshoppers or other bait.
It 10 a fish whose gameness will satisfy
the most exacting Of expert anglers.
and whose readiness to take any prop.
q lure will satisfy the most impatient
Of inexperienced amateurs.
The size Of the trout varies with To-
cality, depending on the volume and
character Of water supply. In the
Sierras 1t weighs from two to eight
pounds. In Arkansas specimens weigh. /,
ing ten pounds have been caught, and
In New Zealand the claim is made
that thirty-pound specimens have been !
taken. a

PROTECTION OF GAME
IN FLOODED AREAS

Much interest has been aroused
throughout the State in the measures
taken by the Conservation Department
for the preservation of wild life threat
ened by the floods from the Missis-
sippi crevasses. When the land was
overflowed deer and other wild life
caught in the lowest portions of the
districts affected were drowned in
some numbers before they could reach
the ridges, :nd before the agents OF
the Conservation Department could get
to their assistance. But as soon as
the situation iecame known, Commits
sioner Alexander organized forces in
the Overf5owed areas, both for the pro-
lection Of the property of the inhabi-
tants and the wild life.
The boats of the department were
sent to strategical points even before
the first crevasse occurred, and when
the overflow came the cooperation OF
the local authorities was secured. the
regular agents of the departm ent were
put actively at work in the flooded
areas and additional men secured to
assist in the work. Shortly after the
occurrence Of each break the terri.
tory affected was zealously patrolled
to prevent the slaughter of the refugee
game and every effort was made to
rescue them from the flood. Hundreds
Of deer have been saved and are being
fed at the expense of the department,
which has employed men to tend them.
These deer are collected on high spots
where they are safe from the water,
but where they would die Of starvation
were not food brought to them. For
example, from $50 to 200 deer are gath.
cred on high spots in St. Bernard par.
ish, and are fed daily by men employed
for that purpose. This work is Sc

ment, but it is being kept up and will
