n : la tty. Conn.— How can I catch live minnows with a 



net (not a seine)'; They are so very quick in their movements that 

 the minute you get a net under them, they are off like a flash. There 

 are hundreds of them around our boat when fishing for pickerel, and 

 we have to catch them with a needle hook and then put them on the 



large hooks for pickerel, of which we catch plenty. Thev clean our 

 hooks off quicker than we can catch the minnow a, and that, Is why I 

 want-to gel the knack of getting them in a net. 1 thought, perhaps, 

 there might be a way of en'icing them into the net that I did not 

 know of. Ans. If the minnows are not to be found in the small 

 streams, we can oolv suggest that you entice them over the net with 



bread crumbs ami let them get familiar with the pn-s,-ui f the net, 



then raise quickly. We think you should find some in the brooks -at 



A Fight With a Buck.— A correspondent writes from 

 Lower Soda Springs Hotel, Shasta County, as follows: J. H. 

 Cremer. on old mountaineer who lives near this place, tells 

 the following story: A fortnight ago two miners came to his 

 house for the purpose of huwiig him direct them to a certain 

 trail leading to a mine. He guided them, and on his return 

 he spied a deer lying by the side of a dead tree, apparently 

 sound asleep. A whoop aroused the animal, followed by 

 more yells, which so frightened it that it rushed headlong 

 into a tree top, which in some way injured it so that it seemed 

 crazed. It then turned upon the" defenceless man, trying to 

 use its horns, which were about twelve inches in length. Mr. 

 Cremer felt sure it could do no harm in this way, but found 

 that in his rage it would stamp him to death; soin an instant 

 he caught it by the hind leg and had the good fortune to throw 

 vav that one horn held it fast under a limb of a 



fallen tn

A Ton of Bbook EroTJT.— Yesterday morning about 10 

 o'clock one of the- men who were working alongside Lake 

 Bigler wood flume at the lumber-yard in Carson called out to 

 the men below that all the fish in Lake Bigler were coming 

 down the flume. A few seconds later a s'chool of fish struck 

 the apparatus which is placed in the flume to turn sticks of 

 timber over the edge of the flume, and being suddenly de- 

 flected fell over the workmen. The waiter was fairly bristling 

 with trout and suckers, and they came in irregular" numbers, 

 about six inches long and all alive. Nearly a ton of tho fish 

 fell under the flume, and the workmen took them away in 

 baskets. A ton of fish in half an hour is about the best score- 

 on record for Nevada. It is believed that they were crowded 

 into the supply pond of the flume by the storm, and then 

 driven into the flume in b ouches of say two or three dozen in 

 a bunch. They would strike the reflector and fly in all direc- 

 tions. Tltis thing was kept up for nearly half an hour, when 

 they got beautifully less and then ceased com ng altogether 

 They were mostly brook trout.— Carson (Mm:) Appeal , "

BRAIDED FISHING LINES. 



The great superiority of a properly braided line over a twisted or laid line, has increased the tleiuand tor 

 braided lines enormously. This demand lias induced a number of manufacturers, entirely unacquainted with the 

 requirements of anglers, to put on the market a quantity of perfectly worthless goods. Many of thete lines are 

 undersized and short of marked length; nearly all of them Hd'e made of poor material and on old-fashioned 

 machines. Anglers ■wall please take notice that ail of our best bruided lines— coition, linen, raw sill,-, boiled silk, oiled 

 silk, enamel, and polished waterproof tapers— are labeled with our full firm name and trade mark, exeept the enamel 

 fly lines on cards, which bear only our trade mark and the name of the Empire City Braid Co., whose agents we are. 



Orders received from persons residing in cities in which the dealers keep a full line of our goods in stock will 

 not be filled at any price.
