THIEF WHO STOLE
 MULE STILL AT LARGE
But Incident That Followed Sale of Stolen Animal Here Is Being
 Closed.

The story of the small dark man, 7 calling himself Carl Benton, the smah mule that sold for $30, the liveryma1 who issued the check and the firm who cashed it, is drawing to a close. About the only details lacking at the present time is the capture of the "small dark man" and the securing of $30 to reimburse the liveryman.
 The owner of the mule arrived from Warren and identified the ani- nal, which was promptly turned over by D. A. Caldwell, who bought the mule from Benton" paying him with a check for $50, which was cashed by the firm of Henry Marx & Company, but oa which Caldwell stopped payment at the bank, after it was ascertained that the mule was stolen.
 Mir. Caldwell will take up the check, it is said, paying the $3O.
 The stranger told Caldwell that he had been hauling stave bolts in Grant county, but had sold his wagon and the '.best mule," but that he had a small mule, which he would be glad to bring up and show MT. Caldwell, if he cared to make purchase. The story was plausible and the liver y> man told the man to bring along the animal. After looking the mule over, MT. Caldwell offered $3O for it, which the stranger accepted. He made a small purchase from Henry Marx X Company, rendering the check in pay ment, which, after conversation over the phone with Mir. Caldwell. was accepted and the difference paid the stranger ill cash.
 The officers are making every ef- fort to apprehead the thief but it is highly improbable that he will re, fund the $3O to Caldwell if captured.

Minnekahta Bath House Being Oycrhauled and
Otherwise Improved.
A reporter for the Star upon visiting
the Miunekahta Bath House the first
of the week was pleasantly surprised at
the new improvements being made in
the building and the equipment this
spring. Since Mrs, Nicholson became
the owner a little over year ago she
has made wonderful improvement in
the property, first by exoavsting for
and installing an open air plunge for
summer and the enlsrging of the In.
door plunge for winter use. This neces-
STATED the outlay of q considerable
amount Of money and some of the
other improvements had to 60 until
later. However some little time ago she
began the remodeling of the interior Of
the bath house proper and at the pres
ent time this is almost completed. The
ladies side of the house has been in
ane condition for some time but on the
mems side four of the old bath rooms
have been converted into one large
massage room where aside from electric
and hand treatments, any kind of a
bath can be'given. The floors are of
cement and the walls and ceiling in
this ss we'll as all the other rooms in
the building are of steel and painted
an enamel white. e. E Johnson, an
expert masseuer, has charge of the
mems department and with two assis-
tants has all he can do at all times.
Nine. Silverman, an expert massuese
recently from Denver, with two assist.
ants has charge of the ladies depart
ment.
The Minnekahta Bath is the oldest
in the city and has within its walls the
original Indian bath tub and spring
which gained for the town great deal
Of its reputation as place In which
rheumatism and other ailments we're
relieved and cured. With the new i'm.
provements now made in this popular
place of cures the already large busi-
ness is bound to be increased to con-
siderable degree.
