During past years persons engaged in the catching of Biilmon on the Clackamas river have, ! through some means, been able to Hood tho market with a big supply early in t he morning of the opening day of the season. This can only bo accomplished by violation of the law. The Clackamas river is a stream difficult to patrol, and .fisherman, realizing this, pick out the most advantageous places for securing the first haul of salmon. Oftimes they pack their boats far up into the moun tains by wagons, over the rough roads, and, reaching a coveted place, float their boats, and drift down the river witli the current with their nets. Last year Fish Protector McGuire employed one man to patrol the Clackamas river ; but he was not able to accomplish much in the way of imposing penalties for violations of thestate law. This year Mr. McGuire has appointed eight deputies, who live along the Clackamas river, to patrol the stream, and these guards are expected to keep a vigilant outlook, so that no illegal fishing will be indulged in during the final hours of the close season. The plans for artificial propagation of salmon have proved so extensive that the U. S. fish commission has doemed it neces sary to secure the service of a special agent in the gathering of eggs. A con tract has been made with ThomasBrown, of Oregon City, to collect the eggs on the Sandy river, and as soon as they are "eyed," to transfer them to the hatchery for artifical propagation. The work in this line has proved so extensive that Superintendent Hubbard, of tho U.S. fish commission, could not give full at tention to it on account of the inej-eased work proposed to be carried on. Suicide. Samuel Faust, a fanner liv ing a short distance back of Oanoinah, hanged himself in his barn Tuesday morning. Ho had been confined to the house much lately, taking care of j an infirm wife, and had grown somewhat morose. Ho did not sieep well, and' about 4 o'clock he arose and dressed him- self in his best clothes and went to the j barn. Later hisbody was found suspend-! ed from a beam by a small rope around the neck. The coroner was at once 1 notified, and the jury that he impaneled, j after hearing testimony, reported that the deceased committed suicide, while I suffering from temporary aberration. Mr. Faust was 61 years old, and lived with his wife and two sons in the family home. One son is in the state insane asylum. A married daughter lives in ! California.
