Some party or parties entered the
store of Frank Gault & Co. sometime
between Saturday night after the
store was closed and before it was
opened Monday morning, and car
rled away some clothing, shoes and
possibly other articles.
Ii is not known how the entrance
was effected. but the store was en-
tered and some goods taken. Mon
day some goods were found near
town hidden in a straw pile. Frank
Gault went down and at once recog-
nized the goods. Word was sent for
the sheriff to come down. Deputy
Sheriff S. E. Humphry and County
Attorney Fred Blume came down.
Kirk Winchel and Albert Ables
were suspected as the goods found
were near by the house where Mrs.
Winchel lives. Kirk was arrested
and taken to Audubon and put in
Jail, while Ables had made his es-
cape leaving on the train possibly
for Council Bluffs. Sheriff Auder-
son and Gus Gault are in pursuit OF
him but at this time no word has
been heard from them.

A THIEF AMONG THE ANGELS
Sturgeon Corrected His Opinion of
What Ne Might 10.

What He Might 10.
One day the mayor of Cambridge,
who had tried to curb Mr.. Surgeons
tendencies to sensationalisni. inquired
of him if he had really told his congre-
CATION that if ! Chief got into heaven
he would begin Eiclli;'s tie angels
pockets.
yes, Sir" the Eoua.:y preacher re-
piled, Il told them that if X were pos
sible for an ungodly man to so to
heaven without having his nature
changed he would be none the better
for being there, and then, by way of
illustration, l said that were thief to
get in among the glorified he would
remain thief still, and he would go
around the place picking the angels
pockets
"But, my dear young friend" asked
the mayor seriously, don't you know
that the angels haven't any pocketsY'
No, sir" replied young Spurgeon,
with equal gravity, 81 did not know
that, but am glad to be assured of
the fact from gentleman who does
know. l will take care to put it all
right the first opportunity l get''
The next Monday morning Sturgeon
walked into the mayors place Of bust
ness and said to him cheerfully, 81
set that matter right yesterday, SIR
What matter?" he inquired.
Why, about the angels pockets"
what did you say?"
ooh, sir, just told the people was
sorry to say that had made mis-
take the last time preached to them,
but that l had met gentleman, the
mayor Of Cambridge, who had assured
me that the angels had no pockets, so
must correct what had said, as l
did not want anybody to go away with
false notion about heaven. I would
therefore say that if thief got among
the angels without having his nature
changed he would try to steal the
feathers out Of their wings!" -Homi-

SNOW AND RAINFALL
IN MOUNTAIN COUNTRY

Denver. Colo. Sept. H.-Continuous
rainfall over the entire eastern portion
OF Colorado. beginning with a heavy pre-
cipitation last night at o'clock and con-
tinuing until about noon today in a milder
form. has saved the late crops and placed
the ranges in splendid condition for the
grazing Of cattle during the coming Will
ter. All fears of a shortage OF water,
both for human and animal consump-
ton, are allayed. Reports from differ
ent places in the mountains are to the
effect that snow fell during the night
20 a depth varying from three TO eight
inches and that the forest fires that have
been burning for a month or more have
been auenched. IL seems that the rain
and snow was general on the eastern
slope of the Rockies from Montana TO
New Mexico. On the western slope the
precipitation was fitful.
Reports OF. interruption to railroad
traffic, due 20 WashOuts, are being re-
ceived at railroad headquarters in this
city A washout on the Union Pacific
delayed traffic both ways several hours.
The tracks of the Burlington near
Julesburg. Colo. are submerged for
distance of 2.0e0 feet, necessitating the
use of the Union Pacific tracks in
that neighborhood. Nearly every line
of railroad in eastern Colorado is ex-
periencing difficulty in operating
trains because of washouts or opened
roadbeds. No trains on the Colorado
& Southern have been running to Boul-
der today.

Gle. precipitated a wrangle among the
members OF the trans-Pacific freight
combine that promises the defeat OF the
high tariff which shippers are subjected
10 at present. The Portland a Asiatic
people were forced TO take the cargo at
the reduced rate by the NJ. j. Brandon
stein company who threatened TO char
ter a sailing vessel and begin shipment
on their own account unless the rate was
reduced. Their cargo consisted OF 1000
tons of tea. and rather than lose this big
haul the steamship company broke away
from the agreed rate. The company Is
now the object OF attack by the other
members of the shipping combine. who
are accusing them OF treachery and
threaten TO throw I'D the agreement ep-
tirelY.
The combination on freight rates was
entered into last year by the Pacific Mail
Steamship company. the Togo Kisen

at Los Angeles Into
Execution.

". A. Clark viii enter into COMPETE
ton with Henry z. Huntington in in
terurban railroading about Los An
geles. says the Herald.
When the Montana statesman relin-
quished his option on the properties OF
the Los Angeles Traction company il
was thought his threat to enter the
electric railway field here would not
be carried into execution. 1t was set
tied some time ago that the Clark road
TO Pasadena would be electrified or
made OF double motive power. the
scheme being to run both electric and
steam trains over the line. Arrange
ments are being made 10 double track
the road from Los Angeles TO Long
Beach, one track to be for electric cars
and the other. as at present, TO remain
a steam railroad. From Long Beach
TO San Pedro there will be no change.
How far this scheme OF combining the
two systems of railroading viii be car
ried by the Clark people no one of the
officials OF the company would say. But
il was told that the plan OF double
tracking the lines to Pasadena and
Long Beach and running both steam
and electric cars will be cSrried into
effect
