My Old friend, Dan McDonald of Plymouth, is responsible for the stopping of fishing in Lake Maxinkuckee this spring. He will have a number of seaunces excplaining to hotel keepers, boat owners and pushers at the lake how he happened to do it. For every fish caught by transients at the lake it cost them at least two dollars. This money was spent at Culver . The lake will be dead now until warm weather and the principal sufferers are not the fisherman who can go elsewhere and enjoy their favorite pastime, but the hotel and boat men at the lake. The anvil chorns is now in working order.

Nice place for a supposedly sane man to be these days at Maxinkuckee, chopping fire wood in an effort to keep warm. Out here two week and nat a fish so far. In fact no effort has been made to catch any. Beastly northerly winds with an occasional snow fall has been the r ule. It speaks will for the sanity of the other cottagers to learn that I am the only foolish person here. All the others ducked for home...Jim Foley, Eginihard Schmitt and J ulius Wagner gave up it disust and left for Logansport last evening. And yet the earlier blossoms have alreasy started. Along the banks of Lost Lake across from the Arlington...I went down to the inlet yesterday to see Capt. A. J. Knapp's steamboat which was sunk by the ice during the winter. The upper works and smoke stack are alone visible. It will take a great deal of hard work to float the boat but as the timbers are of the best white pine there will be no damage. While down there I was hundreds of sandpipers...Nearly three weeks at Maxinkuckee and not a fish. How is this for tough luck? pg. 1 30 Apr. 1910 Logansport Cronicle

Union township, Marshall county, in which Culver is situated went wet last Friday by a majority of 25. The Culver Citizen, in commenting on the change says:

If the man or men who run saloons, in Culver during the coming two years observe the new law carefully, we are disposed to believe that the town will not stand on a low _ plane that it has been for two years.

Ts the same story wherever blind tigers held sway. Logansport has been wet for two years. and has a cleaner police record than the so-called dry territory. pg. 1 Apr. 8 1911 Logansport Chronicle

New Association At Maxinkuc kee

Logansport fishermen who visit Lake Maxinkuckee each year will be much interetsed in the formation to the Protective Association which was recently started by residents of Culver .

It means a great deal to the merchants of Culver to have Maxinkuckee remain the pop ular resort it has been in recent years and they were aware that the fishing was one of the strongest drawing cards.

The association has asked that a deputy be stationed there reg ularly through the spring season and S. S. Chadwick has bee given charge of a plan to put a screen at the outlet which leaks to the smaller lake.

At a recent of the new organization, as reported in the Culver Citizen, Mr. Chadwick said he had looked over the matter of screening the outlet, and gave his idea about the sort of fish that came in and went out of the lake,

He stated that the railway company cold be induced to put in a levee on either side of the railroad, a concrete pier could be put in on each side of the outlet. His idea would be to put in a grate made of iron bars, which would for a sort of a trap.

He said that Harvey Easterday and himself would volunteer to his gate each day, keeping a record of the fish that go either way, destroying the obnoxiuos fish. The matter will be take up with the fish commisioner when he next visits Culver . - pg. 4 Feb. 17, 1912 Logansport Cronicle

Lake Maxinkuckee

The Closing exercises were held at the Culver Academy this week and were largley attended.

The Schaefer cottage on Long Point is rapdily nearing completion. Mrs. Schaefer sold her lot next to the Reitemier cottage to Henry Meyer of Terre Haute and purchased the Steele lot next to W. C. Routh's cottage.

Steamers are still out of commission. Capt. Crooks will try and be able to okae care of his patrons by today.

John Routh and bride are spending their honeymooned at theh Routh cottage on Long Point.

Steve Chadwick is putting in a new lighting system for the grounds surrounding the hotel.

The lake is covered with June bugs and as a res ult fishing has been very poor the past few days. SOme small catches are reported, and it is said all have been caught with salt port for bait.

Very few cottages are open and everything points to a very poor season. The absence of low rates for the week-end is sure to hurt the lake trade. - pg. 8 Jun. 8 1912 Logansport Chronicle
