Ml-VH INTEREST MANIFEST. Much Interest has been manifested in local musical circles over. the coming apiearance of Paloma and Karla Schramm In Astoria. They will give two concerts at the Methdlst church tomorrow afternoon anJ evening, and the admission will be 50 cents for adul's ind 25 cents for children. The program for the afternoon concert will be pre pared with a special view to the desires and taste of the children. A San Francisco paper In speaking of Paloma's appear.uice In that city, sail: "Amorg the crowj at the concert, there was not one listener, one ventures to say. who sat quite unmoved. Some, musically sensitive, were profoundly touched, raderwakl stirred the depth of us, because he had known all life, and possessed the tremendous power which such cognition gives to a great soul. Paloma Schramm accomplishes the same result In us through her very Innocence, and her essential childish Ig norance of the meaning of existence." rtOBEHTSON DErtniCK HERE.

BENEFITS OF HATCHERY WARDE VAN DUSEN REPLIES TO MR. REED. Says Salvation of Future of Fish Ing Industry In In Artificial Propagation. Misier Fish Warden H. G. Van Du sen differs with W. H. H. Reed, of Cor bet t. Oreg'in, as to the value of .arti ficial propagation to tht fishing indus try. In an Interview- with an Astorlan reporter Mr. Reed declared that all that was lecessary for the replenish ing of the stream was th rlgorou enforcement of the closed eison. He atatel that the fish would thn seek their natural spawning grounds unmo lested and that young fry born amid natural surroundings would be more capable of self-protection than would fish turned out from a hatchery, where they bad been fed and cared for. Mister Warden Van Dusen, In an in terview yesterday. ald: "There Is no denying that something la diminishing the annual run of fish and some plan I necessary to replenish the stream. Personally I believe that the salvation of the Industry lie !n artificial propa gation. As nearly as can be estimated one and one-half million fish are taken from the Columbia each year. Last vear the Washington hatcheries turned 1.6'5,)0 young fry Into the Columbia an l tls tributaries. Oregon turned In 3.670,000 and the government hatcherle had an output of S.&S8.000. making a total of 2S3.000. Experts have found, as the result of careful experimenting, that ten per cent of artificially propa gated fish live to attain naturlty, and this ratio would Insure a desirable yearly Increase In the annual run. "The artificial hatchery of salmon is still in an experimental stage but cer tain facts have been demonstrated o often that they mut be accepted as truth. About five per cent of the eggs spawned In a natural state are hatched whereaa In the hatcheries fully ninety five per cent are saved. As to the lat ter fish blng devMd of Instincts of pro tection there is difference of opin ion and experts are watching young fry with a view to arriving at a more defi nite understanding. Some declare that th" fry should be turned Into th riv er at the time they begin to feed. Oth ers are positive that the best results can be gained by keeping them in the hatch eries until six months have elapsed, by wh'ch time they will have reached a growth of from four to six inches. "If the six months' plan was gen erally adopted It Is quite possible that the fish would have lost self-protection Instincts, because of continued feeding, without exertion. However, these are mere details of the methods which meet the disapproval of Mr. Reed. There can hardly be any doubt but that artificial propagation has been of much benefit to the fishing Industry, and Its potential Importance must necessarily receive a great deal of attention. Dur ing my administration of the office of master fish warden I will pay partlcu Hir attention to the hatchertes and at the expiration of a year expect to have figures that will prove beyond contra diction the value of artificial propaga tion. "I think that with adequate hatchery facilities the annual run in the river can be Increased to a considerable ex tent. We shall use every effort to en force the laws of the closed season, so that the fish may reach their natural spawning grounds. In regard to the hatchery work for the coming year the most Important action of the state board of fish commissioners will prob ably be in agreeing to the transfer of the Wenatchee hatchery from Wash ington to Oregon. We expect to turn Into. the Columbia during the coming year from twelve to fifteen million fry. and under exceptionally favorable con ditions the aggregate may reach twenty million. Warden Van Dusen received a letter yesterday from Representative B. L. Eddy, of Tillamook, stating that he was taking steps -to gain desired informa tion as to the most desirable site In the vicinity for the location 0f a hatch ery. Mr. Van Dusen will proVvaoly leave shortly for a trip to Tillamook and will inspect the various sites of ferred. A letter was also received from Deputv Sheriff E. C. Greenman. of Ore gon City, who has been employed by the warden to aid In enforcing the laws affecting the closed season, in which the writer siid that there was no attempts made during the last days of the closed season and the deputy is preparing for a vigilant patrol of the river and all vlolaters will be prosecut ed to the fullest extent of the law.
