Phone 2271 LAND SA L E NOTICE San Francisco Remembers S teven so n W i t h M o n u m e n t Tourists to San Francisco are shown the little square at the edge of Chinatown where Robert Louis Stevenson sat and passed the time of day with sailors, booted miners and wanderers from everywhere, back in the seventies. Called Portsmouth square, it is a historic spot. Around it grew up the little village of Yerba Buena, later called San Francisco. The town's first hotel, theater and schoolhouse (faced the square. Capt. John Mont gomery of the United States sloop- of-war Portsmouth seized Yerba Buena and raised the American flag in the square on July 9, 1846, during the Mexican war. From his ship the square got its name. Stevenson was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, on November 13, 1850— just 89 years ago. A wanderer at heart, the frail man, in his twen ties, landed on the East coast, then came west by emigrant train. Motley crowds of people from all quarters of the globe haunted the square when Stevenson frequented it. Among them the slender writer found inspiration for his tales, as he observed strange characters and listened to their yarns. For hours at a time he sat on a bench in the sun, hearing stories about China, the South Seas and strange ports and peoples. It is said that some of these aroused in him a rom antic in terest in Samoa, where later he vis ited and died, at lonely Apia. Portsmouth square rem em bers “ R. L. S.” with a monument, the first ever erected to his memory. A simple rectangular block of Sierra granite, it is surmounted by a gold en galleon, the Hispaniola of “ Treas ure Island.” A quotation from the w riter’s “Christm as Sermon” is in scribed thereon: “ To be honest, to be kind . . . ” The scene from Stevenson’s day hasn’t changed much. Today there are sailors on leave, adventurers and peoples of many races to be found in the square. Chinese chil dren romp on the grass, while their elders doze in the sun.

Five cents!” Maine Plans to Restock Their Fishing Streams Seeking to maintain its claim to being the “ fisherman’s paradise,” Maine has undertaken an intensive program to stock its stream s and coastal waterways. The fish and game departm ent re cently released 10,000 four-to-six- inch trout in the Cumberland county waters and now is seeking to in crease the number of fighting Atlan tic salmon in its stream s. Gov. Lewis O. Barrows order«! the departm ents of inland fisheries and game, and sea and shore fisher ies, to undertake a joint survey of all known and potential salmon rivers to discover ways and means of bringing back the salmon in large numbers. The governor also proposed that the U. S. bureau of fisheries convert their Craig Brook hatchery at Or land into an exclusive salmon plant, and Washington has sent a special ist to investigate the situation. The hatchery is working only with trout now. It was suggested that legislation be enacted whereby the state could take over and destroy salmon weirs and reimburse the owners for their losses. The state, according to Bar- rows, already is prepared to make improvements in fishways, dams, and to clear stream s. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the undersigned.
