THE REAL DOPE ON THE
LOCAL FISHING SITUATION
Banker Johnson Denies Soft I'm
peachment iof Low Enthusiasm /
on Piscatorial Pleasure.

j. r. johnson, the local banker
and also q great disciple of Isaac
Walton, took great umbrage at q
suggestion in these columns q few
days ago to the effect that his pisca-
tOrial enthusiasm had recently sus-
tanned a severe. shock as the result
of minor Irritation with the finny
tribe on Two Buttes Creek accom-
panied by two other devOtees of
the rod and tackle
Continuing to wax wrOth at The
Chieftain's accusation Mr.. johnson
hastily organized company of
more or less well known rod and reel
artists and early Sunday morning
the coterie, well equipped with Be-
vo and other well selected bait, left
for the Two Buttes dam. There
were eight in the crowd, and do you
believe it,, the whole neighbOrhoOd
around here have since been feast
ing on fish.
Anyhow, Capt. J. R. johnson Of
this expedition reported on his re-
turn to Holly Sunday night 160 fish
caught. He has reaffirmed his al
legiance to the now sainted Walton
and has made dire threats against
the literary factory at The Chieftain
office unless retractiOn of all past
aspersions relative to his faith in
fishing as pastime is made instan-
ter.
The Chieftain appreciates the
great wisdom in discretion as COM
pared to valor in critical situations
like the present and hereby hum
bly, but magnificently deposes and
swears that we never said it.
Sundays detachment to the Two
Buttes dam included besides Capt
johnson, his fatherinlaw, j. W..
Campbell of Hutchinson, A. w. Mes
Ike of Wichita, and our townsmen,
H. W. Woods, E. A. Northrup, Sgt.
Hughey Dicks, M. H. HuddlestOn,
and Paul Whitcomb. But to be
candid the boys say the fishin' was
fine and they had good time And
the editor and. family are grateful
for q mess of fish.

MOST MODERN MACHINE
SHOP IN THE VALLEY
New Equipment Purchased by w.
w. Heckethorn Some Weeks Ago
Has Arrived from Factory and Is
Now Being Installed.

Some weeks ago while w. W.
Heckethorn was in Denver attend
ing the stock show, in anticipation
of his rapidly increasing business
and growing demands for expan-
sion, he purchased something over
$1,000 worth of new shop equipment.
Most of this machinery arrived
the first of the present week and
when it is installed Mr.. Heckethorn
will have machine shop in conncc-
tion with his large garage, auto,
truck and tractor business un-
equalled between Dodge City, Kas.
and Pueblo.
The new equipment includes a
universal bearing burning in and
testing machine, something not usu-
ally found outside the large cities.
This places the H.-B. Motor Cos.
plant in position to. handle most
anything that comes along in the
line of auto and truck repairing
and in the minimum of time, and
will prove a great convenience to
the tourist, when he learns of the
facilities in Holly, as well as auto,
truck and tractor owners through
Kansas.
Another new device added is a
connecting rod Strengthening and
aligning jig, modern tool for
quick and accurate service.

The following Associated Press
dispatch was taken from last nights
Denver Post:
Paris, June rs Frederick William
HOhenzOllern, the former German
crown prince has escaped from Hol-
land and made his way into Ger
many.
News of the escape of the ex-crOWn
prince caused considerable stir in
peace conference circles. While it is
not felt that he is figure around
which the reactiOnaries and mon
archists would gather enthusiastic
cally, nevertheless his act is regard
ed as an event of considerable sig
nificance in view of other German
recalcitrancy.
1t is suspected in peace confer
ence circles that the crown prince
plans dramatic coup by which he
hopes to overthrow the republic
restore the monarchy, sound the call
to arms and defy the allies counting
on the partial Rehabilitation of the
entente armies to enable him to
make effective resistance.
While ostensibly under intern
ment' by the Dutch authorities, the
heir of the HOhenzOllerns has been
allowed great freedom in his move
ments. 1t is known that he has
kept constantly informed of the
state Of affairs in Germany through
friendly cOurfers.
