INDIAN PATTERNS AFTER
PILE FACE BROTHER

Pickerel Lake, s. y, Dec. A.
John Keeble, a Sioux warrior
who owns the most of the land
around Pickerel Lake, has de-
cided not to lease any Of the
land in future for hotel pur-
poses. In the past he leased
land for hotel and cottage pur-
poses, and as a result a number
Of cottages have been erected in
this vicinity, in addition to a
good hotel, which aided In max
ing Pickerel Lake ore Of the
finest fishing and shooting re-
sorts in the northeastern por-
ton of the state. Since the
building Of the hotel and cot
tages hundreds of people have
each season visited this resort.
Following the action Of the In
dian owner the hotel will have
to be moved to a new location
this winter when the present
lease expires. It is stated that
the Indian owner Of the land
also has decided to greatly in
crease the rental charged cot
tagers for the privilege of hav-
ing their cottages on the shores
Of the lake.

BURGLARS ATE A PIE.

Burglars entered the Phoenix butch CT shop on Naco Road sometime Sun day night and stole thirty-four pairs of shoes and one apple pie. They strewed crumps of the pie all over the floor. but of the missing shoes there is not a trace The building. which is owned by the Rafaclovich & Brajevich company. was used in part as a ware house fer the stock of that firm. Back Of the market proper were stored gro ceries and general department stock Of all descriptions. in the front room was kept the show case of fresh pas try. The invaders gained entrance through the front door by the simple process of pulling loose staple which held the lock. IL seems curious that the thieves should have stolen only shoes out Of the wealth of steal able articles they must have stumbled across. One officer on the case has evolved the theory that the burglary was committed by a centipede. The sleuth hounds of justice are working upon this clue.
