RECOVER STOLEN
MOVIE" FILMS
Three Moving Picture Films Stolen
From the orpheum Theatre
Recovered by Police.

Three moving picture films valued
at over $3.50 which were stolen from
the Orpheum theatre the night before
New Years eve were recovered TODAY
by the police and the man whom the
police believe to be the thief, Harry
Arpp, is expected to be arrested with
IN a few hours. The films are now
estimated to be worth only about $3.50
as their value decreases with their
age. even though they haven't been
used. A machine lens valued at s25.
which was stolen about one week be-
fore the films, was recovered by the
police with the films. The lens was
stolen from the Hippodren.e theatre.
The recovery of the films and the
information that leads the police to
believe that Arpp is the man who
stole them comes principally from a
brother-in-law of Arpp, Dan Horn. and
a brother-in-law of Horn, John Thomp-
son. Horn and Thompson own NOV.
ing picture machine and number of
films which they carry about to small
towns in wagon, and exhibit. AID
parently Arpp gave the films to Horn
and Thompson, but they say they re-
fused to take them because they
thought they had been stolen.
Arpp apparently secreted the films
in barn at the home of his mother
in-law, who stated that she had found
them in the barn when she returned
them to the police today. Arpp, Horn
and Thompson, have all been arrested
by the police at different times but
We're released because of lack of evi-
dence upon which to hold them. The
police are looking for Arpp at present
He is known to be in the city and his
arrest is expected at any moment

POSTAL FIGURES
STILL SHOW GAIN
Receipts Cut Down as the Last Day
Of January Fell on
Saturday.

Receipts from the Keokuk postoffice
as complied by the postmaster and
given out for the month of January
1914, show an increase over the same
month last year. While the increase
over the figures for 1913 is only $12.19,
it must be remembered that the last
day Of January this year fell on a
half holiday for the business houses.
This is figured as losing something
like one hundred dollars compared
with last years figures.
The total sales for January 1914
were $7,S60.2S. The sales for January
1913 amounted to s7,34S.09, making a
gain for the present year Of S12.19.
The gain in postal receipts which
has been steady for two years shows
something Of the prosperity of the
city and shows that the city is not
falling behind.

MORE PETITIONS
BEING CIRCULATED
Six Papers are Prepared and Pu,
in Hands Of Boost

Not content to rest on their laurels,
the south side residents are max ng
another strong campaign for sigma
lures to their petitions for a new
street car line on their side of the
city. Six more petitions were drawn
up and have BEEN put in the hands of
cileulators. 1t is variously estimated
by the south side boosaters who are
after the line, that they can get from
500 to 500 names on these petitions
which makes an average of from
1900 to 1900 names.
The first petitions have already
been presented to the company. These
contained some two or three hundred
names and will be forwarded to the
head company at Boston for decisive
action in the matter.
One OF the new petitions which
has bsen prepared is being kept a,
Schonten's bakery where 1t may be
signed by any of the residents who
may not have had chance before.
