the 11:37 train last evening and were
this morning planted by A. C.

Archibald, the fish being divided be
tween Third and Horseshoe Lakes.
The fish were in good condition when
they arrived and unless they are mo
lested during the next few years,
some good fishing may be expected
on the lakes. When the government
slocks a stream with lish, a require
ment is invariably made that none of
the lisli shall De caught tor a period
of three years and this rule will apply
to tne laKes siocucci with simtish

Application was made for these
lish some tune ago by the hirst Na
tional bank force and it was neces
sary to secure the co-operation of
Congressman Hawley before the ap
plication was acted upon favorably.
