JAMES J. JOHNSON PLEADS GUILTY TO ATTEMPTED INSCKANCE SWINDLE.
James J. Johnson was sentenced by Judge James P. Hughes in the circuit court Saturday afternoon for attempting to swindle an insurance company. He was given a sentence of one to five years. Johnson lives at Roachdale and is ) a telegraph operator there. He has a wife and one son. The defendant entered a plea of guilty and said that he deliberately planned the crime because he was short of money. He attempted to hide his Whippet coach and claim his insurance and had a former resident of Roachdale, Tracy Newell drive the ear to Chicago on April 22. The young man drove the car there, hut on the advice of his uncle in Chicago, brought it back to Roachdale. After he came back Johnson persuaded him to take the car up to Mace, Montgomery county, where Newell was going to live, and hid the car there. Meanwhile Johnson put in his claim on the “stolen” car and would have received his money late this month. The sheriff of Montgomery county j somehow received news of the hidden car and brought Newell to Greencastle last night. Affidavits against Johnson were I filed in the circuit court Saturday | morning and he was arrested in Roachdale by Deputy Sheriff Alvaf Bryan Saturday noon.

HIGH WATER INTERFERES WITH SPAWNING OF BASS Spawning of black bass in streams this year has been greatly interfered with due to high waters and low water temperatures, yet the conservation department is making considerable headway at artificial propagation in the five hatcheries, according to George N. Mannfeld, fisheries and game superintendent. Young bass have been hatched at all state hatcheries, and within a few days deliveries of this species will be under way. Many of the bass are raised to fingerling size before planting as they do better at this stage. In April and May, 7,118,000 walleyed pike, and 1,305,000 yellow (ring perch) fry were planted in state waters. Wall-eyes, account of their predacious habits, are not reared to fingerlings. The yellow perch fry 1 planted were surplus. A large number of fry of these species were retained for rearing to fingerlings, as is the custom with all species handled, except the cannibalistic walleye. Nine species of game fish are being propagated at state hatcheries this year, Mannfeld says, arid are as I | follows: large and small-mouth black j bass, hluegill, crappie, rockbass,-red-eared sunfish. pike perch (wall-eye), , yellow (ring perch), and channel cat- | fish. Hatcheries are interesting plae- j es at this time of the year and open to the public.
