CRAIG NO WADMITS HE DID NOT CAICH FISH City Engineer Explains, Under Pres- sure, that His Trophies Were Given to Him. City Engineer Craig enjoyed the repu- tation of being & real fisherman for & day or two, but now Is not standing so hign in the list of local piscatorial cnamplons. Saturday last he went to Carter lake with Councilman Sheldon, but during the whole afterncon they did not get & strike. “The rascally fish have all gone to sleep, opined the councilman, who is & real fish- erman. When Mr. Cralg arrived on the street car he had a siring of tish that aroused the admiration and envy of all who saw them. - He kept his poie in plain signt, also the string of fish, and wure & sinlic bland but modest, and kept It on all the way home. Now the story has leaked. At the dock, when he returned from his un- sucesstul hunt, Mr. Cralg met a friend who fishes merely for sport. This friend Was giving & fine string of bass and crap- ples to his boatican, who later gave the fish to Craig, #s an old friend of hiy school days, and the latter made the best possible use of his trophies, but withGut saying & word as to how he acquired them. He did not even claim to have caught them. He just let the fish speak for themselves “Yes, that story Is true,” admitted the city engineer, “but no one can mccuse me of flylng false colors. 1 sunpiy en- Jjoyed the sight of those fish, and took an inuocent pleasure in the excitement they created. but I can tell you a real fish story. Belng at Elgin, Neb., yesterday, L saw Banker McBride and a 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 golng up there soon as possible, because 1 want one fisn that 1 can say I caught myseit.” Auunouncements of the Theaters.

The land In that country has never been proved until the last few years and while soll and| climate analysis proved that we had just a8 good & country as the Hood River, Ore- gon, section or the Wenatchee, Washington, | section, still we had never grown anything there until the last rew years and the consequence was that all values were ex- perimental. As the crops come into bear- ing, however, and we begin to get returns from the land products these values grow and grow so that the price of property is advancing by leaps and bounds. Our fruit farms are not in bearing yet and we do not know what they will do. There are Instances of where fruit has been raised and in those cases the returns have justi- fied a 10 per cent return on as high as| $1,000 per acre. But the hay and grain lands are showing a return at current rates | of interest as high as $250 per acre.

Plumbers Defer Strike Action i pillin i Journeymen Will Await Decision of Master Plumbers’ Association at Next Meeting. No plumbers’ walkout will be called be- fore next Monday, if at all, according to action taken by the local plumbers’ union in a meeting at Labor temple last night. The union men decided, according to statements by several members, that they would let their demands for a raise rest until after the meeting of the Master Plumbers' association, Saturday night. The union submitted its demand to the association last week, and the latter laid them on the table, neither granting or rejecting them. A few of the boss plumbers, not connected with the assocta- tion, have' granted the plumbers an in- crease of forty-six cents a day, however, and as a result only a few of the em- ployes remain to be given better pay. The union men conducted their meeting In strict secrecy last night, and the re. port given out at its close was without detail.
