TROUT FISHING SEASON ALMOST OVER. —The trout fishing season will end on Thursday of next week and the zealous disciples of Izaak Walton will hereafter be compelled to go after the wily bass or hang up their tackle until next season rolls around. Fishing creek yielded the best returns this year of any stream in this section. Fishermen who visited there had fairly good luck when the weather conditions were favorable but the frequent hard rains kept the stream in a murky condition two-thirds of the time, when successful fishing was im- possible. | Spring creek and Logan's branch af- . forded rather poor fishing. About the only things worth while in either stream | were the big trout caught. Every few days a lucky fisherman would land a ' trout big enough to make a meal for an | , ordinary family, and this would be justi- fication enough for a week's hard luck. All the streams will be stocked this fall : with fingerling trout and by next season fishing ought to be better.

C., and received in substance the fol- i lowing reply: The money to pay pensions comes from the general fund which is im- posed for other reasons than those of taxation. More than half of it comes from duties on whiskey and : The other half levied if sommes from duties upon imports for pro- of American farmers and m Those taxes would remain the same if there were not a pensioner The would Nittany Country CLuB ELECTS OF- FICERS.—The annual meeting of the Nit- tany Country club was held at the club at Hecla on Saturday afternoon and the | they principal business was the election of officers for the ensuing year.
