ton, his young manager, had carried
out some bright ideas. Then Stein,
happening to visit a friend who had
made great success in the big city,
came back to Rockton with more ex-
panSiVe ideas in his mind than ever.
''The whole essence of your propo-

Stein went back to Rockton with
this bee in his bonnet, after instruct

to send him on as soon as he got him.
One day there alighted from the

however, swallowed him whole. He

himself Roger Lane, about an hour
to convince the merchant that he was

flashed card showing that at one

Jerseymen Caught in Net
of Truck Thieves Charged
With Getting 100000 Loot

NEW YORK, March "A recent ar
rest in connection with the so-called
gang of truck thieves has led the dis
trict attorneys Office to make a thor
ough investigation into the looting of
trucks delivering goods at the piers of
the Old Dominion line, TIL Mallory
line, the CLYDE line and the New York
Central Railroad Company. Accord
ing to reports about the Criminal
Court building, the amount of the
thefts during the past year has
reached a figure of more than $100 900,
divided as to $4,000 on the Old
Dominion line and 10000 each from
the three other lines.
The police have arrested Nicholas
Iambetta on a charge of grand
larceny, and he is held in $4,000 bail:
Charles Goldstein, who is held in
$4,000: Albergrese, of Great Notch,
n. j., former saloonkeeper in West
street, who has furnished $500 BAIL
and Charles Seaman, who is now in
the Tombs, after pleading guilty to
being a member of the gang of
looters.
Seaman, on his arrest several weeks
ago, made a confession, and one by
: one the other members of the gang
were gathered in.
The method of operating
charges against all the men being
grand larceny-was the forging of
orders of bills of lading. The driver
of a truck containing load of mer-
chandise would appear at one of the
piers just before closing time. One
of the men in the gang would APP
proach the driver and tell him that If
he stored the truck and merchandise
in a certain warehouse, which was in
dictated, it would be worth 500 to the
driver.
The driver would fall for it, and on
the following morning would be given
a receipt and a duplicate of the goods
as if they had been delivered to the
steamship company. The trucking
concern would forward the receipt
which had been forged and keep the
duplicate for protection. When the
constance failed to receive the goods
he would present his claim to the
steamship company, and, having a
receipt for what had been supposedly
delivered to the company, would col
lect the full value Mr.. Deuel. is look
mo m the many ramifications of the
operations of the trucking gang, and
other arrests are expected in the near
future.

In the interest Of the seating
movement for the new church, the
preacher-in-charge visited Dallas'

ment last week The trip was more or
less successful so far as the main OBJ

interest in other matters, few Of
which we shall make note Of in
passing
Arriving in Fort Worth after an
an night run over the T. a p. Ry we
proceeded to the American Seating
Company and submitted our plans,
and communicated the details Of our
wants as TO oak pcws and then while
the man In charge was making mp his

METHODIST CHURCH NOTES
(By Rev. ]. W. Hunt

Fine audiences greeted us morning
and night last Sunday. The morning
theme was Service" and the even
ing topic, THE Robe OF the Savior. "
The male quartette got back into com
mission and the return Of Mrs. Curry
to the choir added greatly to the mus
lie.
Next Sunday is Easter Sunday and
our services will be accordingly ar
ranged as to sermon and music.
You arec ordlally invited to be pres
ent.
The Snyder signal. (Snyder, Tex.) 1887-????, 1914-04-10


On account OF the fact that 1t will
tPke so long to install pews and the
terms of the seating companies are
huch harder than they used to bo--
too hard In fact for us to meet now,
the congregation voted to use the
June church notes to pay for a large
number OF folding chairs to be used
until II was possible to get pews and
then transfer them TO the Sunday
School basement. 1t simply amounts
to buying the chairs first as they
would have to be purchased soon or
late anyway, and will let us into the
church much sooner.

he made a few remarks. They were
to the point He began by asking the
political prophet where he got his in
formation concerning the farmer vote
and the frame up for Tom Ball. Low
is and Radford were promptly cited.
Our farmer friend came back strong.
He assured the gentleman that those
two gentlemen would have about as
much to do with the farmer vote as
the agitation in Ulster had to do with
small pox in the South Sea Islands.
He knew both men personally. Had
told one to his face that morning that
he had everlastingly played the fool
by his endeavor to deliver the far
mers to the liquor crowd. THE far
mers started this prohibition move
ment, II is our child and we are not
going to desert II for a cry OF expe-
diency and that at the time when 1t
will benefit only the liquor inter
ests, he declared and then asked the
brother II he had noticed how Gray
son county had Just gone for prohibit
tion. We'll. that is Just the way the
farmers Of north Texas are going for
prohibition and Tom Ban til the
strange hold OF saloon domination is
forever broken IN Texas" He showed
that he was better Informed on the
situation than his opponent and that
angered the gentleman especially
when the crowd laughed at his ex-
pense, which It frequently did. Every
farmer on the car was for Tom Ball.
That completed his undoing. He grew
personal and as both were physically
big men business picked up. The ar
rival Of the car In Dallas ended the
controversy, Just as the rest OF us
were liking to get under the seats.
while at Dallas, We visited the Dal-
las Seating Company, the Dallas Art

POLITICAL GOSSIP.

Two state senators who are candi-
dates for congress. A. b. Carney. who
is out against Guy Helvering for the
Democratic nomination. and Jouett
the race in the Seventh, have sent
word that they will hang on to their
jobs in the legislature, in the event
they land the congressional seats they
are after, clear up to the beginning of
their congressional terms, March 4.
This will preserve the Democratic
majority in the state senate which
might be imperiled should they re-
sign. Governor Hodges wrote the
two senators asking them not to re
sign In the event s0f their election to
congress and they have both assured
him they will stay in the senate until
after the next regular session when
their votes will be needed.

warden, and the death of a female
fish now means the loss Of several
thousand young fish to the streams
of the state this year when they are
badly needed. The fish will be busy
with their domestic duties during the
next few weeks and black bass, which
are combative during their spawning
season, are particularly liable to get
into trouble with baited hooks that
come drifting their way. They spawn
in shallow water, Dyche says, and can
frequently be seen lowering about
their spawning places.

also among the dignitaries called
upon by their constituents to deliver
messages of inspiration to graduates
at this glad commencement season.
