John Milburn. How ard Powe and Irwin Blakely are telling some wonderful tales of an eX- perience on fishing trip this week. Leaving town TueSuay just before noon, they encountered the storm about three miles west of Prescott, and sought se- fuge behind the east side of house. Further on they came to Howard Creek, which was near ly a half mile wide, and swinm- ing. but they were going a-fish- ing. so in they went, but they came near never coming out again. The wagon turned over and the contents floated down the stream, and it was with dlf- ficulty that Howard Powell say ed the mules. At this juncture Irwin climbed a tree, while John grabbed a rope and the refresh ments, and earned Carnegie medal, while Ben Hatley and Geo. Hale, who had been fishing be- fore under difficulties. only laughed. After saving a few necessary articles the bunch pro oeeded to the lake, where they camped, returning next morn ing to hunt for the rest of their effects including wagon, a cot and numerous quilts and wear- ing apparel. John says it ie the first time since he was a baby that he had to eat bread with spoon.
 But he has sworn off. and i' not going fishing again in five years. That's his idea today The others are ready to go to- morrow provided Irwin can get off.
