VISITORS MUCH
PLEASED OVER
FISHING TRIP
LESTER SMITH AND BOB
LAKE WERE TAKEN DOWN
TO WATERS AROUND SAND
KEY ON ANGLING JAUNT

Lester Smith, member of the
firm of Smith and Son, owners
of large fishing interests in Wis
consin, with headquarters at Port
Washington and Osaukee counties
in Wisconsin, had a great time
out fishing yesterday.
They were on a short visit with
their friend, F. w. Knapp, and
he induced them to go fishing and
get some real fishing sport. They
decided to determine the differ
ence between fishing in the lakes
in the north and the ocean in the
south.
Quickly after reaching the vicin-
ity of Sand Key the fish began to
strike and kept it up for several
hours, so fast and furiously that
the anglers were amazed at the
evident hunger of their game.
Told that this was a regular
thing, Messrs. Smith and Lake
were skeptical, thinking this was
one of those days when fish were
biting more freely than others,
and Mr.. Knapp was spoofing.
Mr.. Knapp had just finished
telling his guests of anglers who
had brought fine specimens to the
boat and were on the point of
taking them from the water when
they were seized by barracudas.
Then Mr.. Smith felt a tug at his
line.
After playing the fish a while
he started to draw it into the
boat. 1t never got there, that is
in one piece. They just had
time to see that it was a fine
specimen of mackerel when there
was a flash below the surface and
quicker than thought barracuda
had taken the lower half of the
prize and disappeared in the
sucpIlS.
A moving picture was taken of
the fish just after the barracuda
struck, and when either Mr..
Smith or Mr.. Lake tells this story
to friends in Port Washington,
and are greeted with the trite
and time-worn phrase ''just an
other fish story" they will have
the film to show.
The visitors left over the East
Coast yesterday afternoon declar-
ing that in the future they will
believe anything told them about
Key West waters being the great
est in the world for fishing.

FINDS GOLD COIN IN GARDEN

Harry Burkins, of this town, has a
garden that is one jump ahead of all
others in this locality, so far this
season, as it has produced rare
gold coin. No telling what the next
crop will be.
On Monday, while working up the
ground with rake, he uncovered a
bright gold coin. 1t is about the
size of a five dollar gold piece, but
much thinner, and light yellow in
color. The coin is beautifully mint
ed and but little worn. On one side
around the head ON the gola piece
are the words "Georgius III Del
Gratia". On the reverse side of the
coin is the coat of arms with crown
at top, encircled by lettering, includ-
ding the word REX" and date,
"1773."
The gold piece is a beautiful one,
and by comparison with coin
chart appears to be an English
broad of the 18th century, valued
at 20 shillings, or $4.S5 in U. S.
money, it however, would represent
a much greater value to any old
coin collector.
