A Bold Hhief.
One Of the boldest pieces Of thievery
was committed in Abba yesterday
when an unknown negro went into the
home of Chris Rund. The man came
to the house from the 60" depot and
entering the house he grabbed such
wearing apparel as he could reach and
made run for an out going train.
The word was telephoned to the towns
to the west to look out for the man but
the probabilities are that he will make
his escape good.

Gated at LeMars. has moved to Dallas,

different stages the cereal has reached

not pick out the corn for big ears but

The showing evidences that the corn
is in the very best of condition and if
the frost will hold off for couple of
weeks there will be an immense crop
