CRAIG NO WADMITS HE
DID NOT CATCH FISH
City Engineer Explains, Under Pres
sure, that His Trophies Were
Given to Him.

City Engineer Craig enjoyed the repu-
tation of being q real fisherman for a day
or two. but now is not standing SO high
in the list OF local piscatoriA champions
Saturday last he went TO Carter lake
with Councilman Sheldon, but during the
whole afternoon they did not get a strike
The rascaIy fish have all gone to sleep,
opiDed the councilman. who is a real fish
ernan.
When Mr.. Craig arrived on the street
car he had a string OF fish that aroused
the admiration and envy Of all who saw
them. he kept his pole IN plain sIgnt,
also the string Of fish, and wore smile
bland but modest, and kept It on all the
way home. Now the story has leaked. At
the dock, when he returned from his I'M
successful hunt, Mr.. Craig met a friend
who fishes merely Tor sport. This friend
was giving a fine string of bass and crap
pies to his bostnan. who later gave the
fish to Craig. as an old friend OF his
school days. and the latter made the best
possible use OF his trophies, but without
saying a word as to how he acquired
caught them. He just let the fish speak
for themselves
Yes, that story is true" admitted the
city engineer. but no one can accuse
me- OF flying false colors. l simply en-
joyed the sight OF those fish. and took an
innocent pleasure in the excitement they
created. But 1 can tell you a real fish
story. Being at Elg.n. Neb., yesterday, L
saw Banker Mcbride and friend bring
in enough bass to supply all their friends,
after several days fishing in Dewey lake,
about fifteen miles from the town of
Wood lake. in Cherry county. They told
me at least 500 bass were caught in two
days by some parties OF fishermen, and
that to haul in three bass on one hook
was no trick at all. I'm going up there
soon as possible, because l want one fish
that / can say 1 caught myself"
