fellow, named Rip Van Wrinkle. An the chill

than to Fly kites and shoot marbles with them Rip
loved to fish and hunt, too. He would tramp miles
through the woods with gun his shoulder. But while
Rip spent his days in this WY, the fences his farm
were all falling down, his place going to rack and

He was happy. l., fact, he would rather starve
than work. When his wife told him how idle and care
less he Rip shrugged his shoulders shook his head

 No attempt is being made by the officials today to conceal the gravity of the affair. The postal authorities freely admit that there was a robbery and that the amount missing may be large sum.

 The mail clerks in charge of the pouches profess to be almost certain the pouches were safe in the car when the train left Denver John M. Kuy- kendall, president of the Denver Om- Dibus and Cab company, which has the contract for carrying the mali to the depot, says it would have been impossible for the sacks tc have DeeIi stolen before they were put on the train. On the other hand, the post office authorities admitted today that their theory that the pouches were merely mlssent Is nov improbable on account Of tAs long time that has elapsed since the disappearance
