AUTOMOBILE THIEF

Last Tuesday morning man
giving his name as H. Laish (or
Moore) who had driven into the
garage Monday evening with
Ford car, made a proposition to
VIM. Heckethorn, one of the pro-
prietors of the H-B garage of this
town, to sell him same, offering
same for 1915. He stated that
he and wife, who were accom-
panied by girl of ten years and
whom they claim. as a daughter,
were tired of their trip, which
they alleged had extended to here
from San Francisco. and wished
to finish their trip on the cars.
Mr.. Heckethorn proceeded to
make an examination of the car,
quickling noticing that the num-
Der on same had been changed.
The man produced bill of sale
dated in San Francisco and a
close investigation disclosed that
it had also been altered.
Mr., Heckethorn Immediately
notified Marshal House, who
questioned the parties. They
stood stoutly by their original
statements that they had driven
through from California and
swore that they would make it
hot" for anyone who molested
or interfered with them. Mr..
House got into communication
with Sheriff Downing, explaining
the case and his suspicious that
he had stolen car and was in
formed that a car and party of
the description of the parties here
were wanted in Denver. He at
once took the man to Lamar,
where it was found that he was
the party wanted and that the
car is supposed to be the property
of Commissioner Alex. Nisbet of
Denver.
The woman was a very pretty
one, and several people who
learned of the case. proceeded to
butt in' on Marshal House.
offering the woman all kinds Of
advice, and advising House that
he had better be careful about
whom he arrested. These parties
have since taken to the tall and
uncut"
The woman telegraphed to
Chicago for funds, intending to
go that city, but later departed
for Denver. She claims that the
man is her husband and that their
home was in Ft. Wayne, Ind.
She put up good 'front.' until.
she learned that the Denver Of
ficers wanted her husband, tell
ing in detail of her visit in Cali
-fornia and across the country.
Officers came down from Den
yer Tuesday evening for the man,
taking him to that city Wednes-
day morning. Their appears to
be but little doubt but that he is
one of the ring who has been
operating in Denver for some
weeks, and who are charged with
the theft of great many cars.

NEW COUNCIL NOW IN

Monday evening at eight o'clock
the new city council took hold of
the town affairs In q business like
manner. several appointments
being made and several being left
over to q future date.
The new council first allowed
the monthly bills. then taking up
a communication from the Dem
yer lawyers who have charge of
the lawsuit of the town against
the bonding company. Itappears
that the judgment for $40, 600 and
interest. amounting now to $11,-
896. % has been confirmed, and
the company is seeking a settle
ment of same on a compromise
basis. The council decided to let
the attorneys handle the affair
and if in their judgment the
money could be secured quickly
to allow a small discount. This
appears sound wisdom, and may
be the means of keeping the case
out of court for a number of years.
The various appointments were
then taken up.
Ed Haberstroh was elected
Mayor pro tenn.
For city clerk Robt. King nom
mated 7. G. Demaray; Ed Haber-
stroh nominating Frank Allen.
The point was brought up that
Mr.. Allen was not qualified for

COMMITS SUICIDE

On Monday afternoon, about
five o'clock. Joe Yates. who has
been a resident of this town for
some months past, committed
suicide in alley off Main street by
taking carbolic acid. death result
ing in few minutes after he had
taken same.
Yates. who was a son of Mr..
and Mrs. L. Yates of Rocky Ford,
old and respected citizens of this
valley for many years, came here
about six months ago, his brother,
Ar s. Yates, being lease agent
here for the Arkansas Valley
Sugar Beet & Irrigated Land Co.
He worked off and on for that
company, also taking any other
kind of work offered.
Several months ago he was
married to Efie Marymee, and
since that time he seems to have
been unfortunate in securing en-
ployment, and at times he seemed
much discouraged over his pros
poets.
Last Monday Mrs. Yates told
her husband that she intended
accepting employment at a local
restaurant to help financial af-
fairs. To this Yates objected
strenuously. Mrs. Yates was
firm In her stand and and accepted
the position.
Yates then went to the COM
pany Offices and drew a sum Of
money that was due him, telling
his brother that he intended leav.
ing this town and was going to
New York. His brother at
tempted to dissuade him from
taking such q step and informed
him that he would have steady
employment for him in a fewdays.
About one o'clock he boarded
the train and went to Syracuse,
Kan, about twenty miles away,
coming back on the train due
here at 4:5S o'clock. After get
ting off the train he walked off
up the track q short distance and
then came back up town, going
to the restaurant and asking for
his wife. He was told that she
had gone home.
He left the restaurant and j.
w. Rydder, the proprietor noticed
him reeling and rushed out, tax.
ing hold of his arm and asking
him what was the matter. Yates
could not answer, and Mr.. Ryd-
der, smelling the acid, at once
put in a call for the doctors, Drs.
Pratz and Wilson responding. An
investigation showed that he was
dead, though they made efforts
to counteract the poison.
The body was carried to the
undertaking parlors, being re-
moved to Rocky Ford Tuesday
evening for burial, the parents
and brother who resided there
coming down on an evening train.
Joe Yates was q young man,
popular with his friends. and one
whom a person would never sus-
pect of committing such a rash
act. The opinion here is that his
mind was unbalanced at the time,
he acting in a peculiar, manner
all Monday morning, talking to
his acquaintances in a peculiar
manner and apparently being
greatly worried, He gave no in
timation, however, that he con-
templated any such action.

TRACK MEET osEAr SUCCESS

The greatest track meet in the
history of the Arkansas valley
was that of the Kansas Colorado
League. which was held on the
local High School field last Fri
day.
The day was a dreary one, rain
falling at frequent intervals, but
this did not seem 10 dampen the
ardor of the large crowd, they re-
manning until the last event had
taken place, and fully fifteen
hundred people We're in attend
ance.
Syracuse and Lakin visitors
were the first to- arrive, about
fifty coming from each town. The
pretty girls and thesplendid track
teams did not appear to mind the
rain in the least. Granada people
came in at one O'Clock, the band
turning out to meet this train.
The large crowd atonce marched
to the field. and the track pro-
gram started of on schedule
time.
Syracuse brought up the same
''doggone. orney, little shrimp"
that took all the honors last year,
Grissom by name, and he repeat
ed his previous performance, TAX
ing first in four events. They
also had another extra fine man
in Minor, he taking first in three
events. They were easily the
stars of the meet.
The honors for Holly fell to
McMurtry, he being able to land
second place in most events but
unable to overcome the speed
which Grissom was able to pro-
duce, and against whom he was
mostly pitted. ''Pard" showed
himself a true-blue sportsman,
never giving up and fighting each
event to a finish.
