— (A. P.)-—Thousands of trout are

clares Professor R. A. Muttowskj, of
the University of Idaho, who is here
trying to figure out a carefully se­
lected diet for each species.
Certain types of trout should ba
planted in streams where the bugs
and insects are to their liking, he
believes. And because they are not
so planted there is a waste of thou­
sands of fish each year.
"Trout are particular regarding
what they eat.” he says. "If we can
select the right place for the right
fish there will be a marked decrease
in the number of trout that die. My
work is to determine just where var­
ious varieties of trout should be and
this is based on what bugs and in­
sects they are fond of."

were joined by the mutinous 15 th

Numerous acts of bravery were
done by both Spanish and faithful
native troops, but the surprise was
so sudden that it was impossible for
the garrison to save the guns, which
were carried off by the Moon. Then
both Spanish and native troops fled
precipitately, abandoning rifles, bay­
onets and baggage.
The casualties—comprising killed,
wounded and prisoners—numbered
over 300. and if the landing detach­
