Gasoline Engine choked With Money
Webster City, June 6.-When Hans
Hove, from near Stanhope, started to
set up small gasoline engine ne hao
purchased from p. A.. Mature, q Stan
hone implement and automobile deal
er he found it literally choked with
money. There was $500 scattered
through the working parts, $500 in sill,
yer and 5000 in paper. Mature had
had the engine in his place of business
for some time and was as much sur
prised at the find as Hove.
There is no clew as to where the
money came from. Hove, however,
has deposited it in the stanhope State
bank and will return 1t to anyone VINO
can prove ownership. The $500 IN
silver was in a sack and the $500 was
also in the same place. Considerable
mystery surrounds the find and much
interest attaches to the final disposi-
ton of the money.
