While enroute to Nome with tlie Bear,
Captain Cochran decided that a few
| fresh fish would not be out of place on
i lie menu. He, therefore, allowed some
j of the crew to take out a net carried
i iboard ,hc vessel wltn the expectation of
■itching a few of the finny denizens of
(lie deep to be served up for I he delecta
tion of those aboard. The result of that
calch exceeded tile Captain's expecta
,ions by about two and a half tons as It
! was found when the net was hauled in
Hint there were something like three
tons of shiny trout and salmon caught by
.lie enveloping meshes. And all in one
a.st. The result is that not only the Bear
out ail tile captain's personal friends in
Nome have fresh trout today. In addition

of their opponents by a score of nine to
three. The Nome team played very rag

Hoffman and a total of nine errors were]
chalked up against them. Hoffman, the
new pitcher displayed some classy work,
fanning nine men and allowing but six
hits. Pettit of the Fort team also did
some excellent work, fanning the same
number as Hoffman and also allowing
ihe same number of hits. He was better!
supported, however, which accounts '
largely for^the large score in favor of
the Fort. The attendance was fairly !
