Tells Police TROUBLES
Jinmics, Fuse, Dynamite and Caps
Cause Two Men 10 BE Held for
Investigation.

Two men. seemingly dangerous to
be at large. were apprehended by
officer Pilkington yesterday evening
when Robert Evans and Jack Blume
were placed under arrest ON the
charge Of suspicion. Both prisoners
are said to be wanted in Kansas for
a series OF hardware rohheros and
have been under surveillance of the
local police department for the past
two weeks.
A clue was secured hy Pikngton
from the night waiter at the oil Flyer
restaurant on North Main who in
/ formed the officer that two suspIc-
ious individuals were regular morning
visitors at that place. The regular
appearance OF the men about $50
O'Clock each morning caused the
waiter to think that their nightly
yigis meant no good. They asked
permission to leave grip in the place
! Friday morning, and much TO the Of
| ficers surprise, upon investigation the
contents were found to be a full bur-
glar outfit The kit contained bur
glars 'jimmies," two coils OF fuse, six
sticks OF dynamite, three Walls for
carrying glycerlne, and two boxes Of
dynamite caps.
A gun which the waiter at the OIL
Flyer noticed the men take from a
holster each morning and deposit in
the grip was found at the Oscar
Meth pawn shop on East First The
gun is said to be one of several dozen
that had been taken in hurglari2ng
the steele Hardware company Of Par
sons, Kansas on the night Of May 10.
on this occasion burglars procured
goods valued at $16475, and gained
entrance by boaring ont the lock on
one Of the back doors. The local po-
lice have notified the authorities at
Parsons and clerk from the hard
ware store will be sent to Tulsa to
identify the weapon
The men before being confined in
the city iail were taken to the Mich
! OILS Hardware store on Fast First
where several weeks ago a heavy pur-
chase Of dynamite and fuse had been
made by the men. At the time Of the
purchase the men pretended that the
! explosive was 10 be used on work in
the oil fields When the proprietor
Identified the men, Rlume edged to-
wards the door and attempted to
make his exit officer Pilkington
blocked the door with his foot and
/ handcuffed both while one Of the
clerks called the patrol wagon.
The same men were arrested under
suspicious circumstances on May A.
when suit case filled with clothes
which appeared as If they had just
been taken from the shelf was found
in their possession. The police were
unable to find the owner Of the goods
after holding the men for several days
and granted release.

To Use CARS IN WINTER
Increasing Demand for Touring
Routes Is Noted,

a constantly increasing demand for tour
western states is a marked feature Of the
approaching winter season. There has
been practically no diminution in touring
popularity since early summer, and all in
dications point to an exceptionally active
season during the fall and winter periods
Less than half dozen years ago fully 30

Touring to al Of the leading Southern re-
sorts has Increased within the last two
years and a great impetus to California
touring from the Eastern states has been
given since the successful mapping Of the
Trail TO Sunset by the Touring Club OF
America. over year ago. The Touring
clubs official scout Thomas W. Wilby. is
now homeward bound. finishing the return
trip Of his double transconunental tour,
and has succeeded in interesting the Gov
ernors and highway engineers Of many OF
the states hitherto little frequented by
motorists, 90 that substantial road improve
ments are now projected for hundreds OF
miles on the highway from the East 10
Los Angeles and other resorts i'm Southern
California.
one OF the important results OF this
scouting trip will be the prominence given
TO this transcontinental highway at the
forthcoming tri-stste conference OF the
Governors of California. Arizona and
New Mexico. Governor Sloan Of Arizona
and Mr.. Girand, the territorial engineer,
met Mr.. Wilby in Phoenix and expressed
great interest in the work Of the Touring
Club toward opening up the magnificent
scenic sections of the Southwest to popular
motor touring, in addition to the encourage
ment thereby given for improved roads.
As in many Of the Eastern states. there
has been a lack of coordination in con-
Meeting the main highways Of one state
with those of another, and the coming con-
ference will endeavor TO arrive at some
uniform system of construction for the
great automobile highway through New
Mexico, Arizona and Southern California.
Phoenix is naturally in the line of such
highway. and between that city and Flag
