STATES HOGS STOLEN
commandant Horton Confident That
Disappearance of Swine From the
Soldiers Home Hog Lot is the Re-
suit of Bold Theft-Fourteen Head
Missing at First. But Four Return.

1t appears as tho the disappearance
from the herd of the state at the Sol
diers' Home, is due to theft, and not 10
the fact that the animals strayed away.
as was thought at first might be the
case. Commandant Horton firmly be-
lieves that the animals were stolen, and
bases his supposition largely on the
fact that four. which did return, are so
Wild that they will allow no one near
them. and refuse to feed with the other
hogs in the lot.
The smaller ones of the lot were the
only ones missing Monlay. and just
when they We're taken. whether Satur-
day or Sunday night, is rot known to
certainty. Tuesday four of the ami
mails returned TO the fence surrounding
the pen, and there was no place found
where they might have escaped. This
leaves ten yet unaccounted for. The
pigs are fine ones. thoroughbreds, and
Will weigh now between thirty and for
ly pounds.
Commandant Horton thinks that the
larceny was accomplished by a party of
sufficient size so that the work could be
done quickly. and without making much
OF a disturbance. He thinks that sacks
We're used to carry the animals to
wagon. which must have been driven
down near TO the lot. after dark. Com
nandant Horton will appreciate any in
formation whatever that will lead to
the recovery of the animals.

STILL MAKING REPAIRS.
Glucose Company Men Continue to
Work on Repairs About the Plant.

Whether or not the glucose company
intends to open their big plant in this
city this fall is question which is
open TO doubt, but one thing Is certain,
and that is that it is going ahead with
the repairs to the buildings as tho they
intended to operate at no distant date.
The corner of the ware shed, torn off
by an Iowa Central switch engine. has
been rebuilt, and the entire walls of
the factory, wherever needed, will be
reprinted. Staging IS now being
built on the interior of the smaller
brick stack for the purpose of reaching
the top for the removal of the cap.
This will be torn off, and as much of
the stack torn down as is necessary to
reach good sound wall. 1t will then be
rebuilt. Agent w. G.. Craig has received
no instructions than to proceed with the
work of repairs and is able to shed no
light on the company's probable in
tentions.
