The La Cygne Weekly Journal Linn County Saturday November 13, 1880 The coal taken from the La Cygne shaft is proving to be in great demand.

The La Cygne Weekly Journal Linn County Saturday November 13, 1880 Ten thousand young California salmon were deposited in the Marais des Cygnes river, this city, on Tuesday evening. THey had been hatched about three weeks previous, by artificial process, by Hon. D.B. LONG, Kansas State Fish Commissioner, at Ellsworth. Mr. Long left home Tuesday morning with several thousand of the young fish. The number mentioned abouve were left here, by him, that evening, and another lot he took to Fort Scott. The latter were placed in the Marmaton. Mr. Long is doing the State excellent service as its Fish Commissioner. The people of this locality have reason to be grateful to him, not only for his donation of salmon, from the State, but also forsome thirty thousand young shad which were placed in the riever about eighteen months ago. This is the first introduction of shad and salmon into the Marais des Cygnes river at this point, so the matter is an experiment. We hope it may prove successful, and that Mr. Long may some day happen in La Cygne and be refreshed with palatable morsels of each variety of fish he has so kindly planted here.
