SUIT CASE THIEF
WRITES A LETTER
Rudolf Eek Loses Leather Grip
When His Roommate Flees
to Parts Unknown

Rudolf Eek, a we'll known Morris
painter, would like to known the
present whereabouts of his late friend
and roommate, Chas. Barr, who fled
from his room at Willmar few days
ago taking Rudolf's leather suitcase
and leaving a note stating the grip
would be left at the Hogan Decorat-
ing Co.. IS office in this city. Neither
Barr or the grip can be located
today.
Eek and Barr were sent to WilImar
some time ago where they were as
signed work on painting contract.
They occupied the same room and
week ago Barr made known his inten-
tions of coming to Morris for visit.
That evening he emptied the contents
of Eck's grip onto the floor and left
the following note on the table:
al will send your grip back by Hogan.
I don't want to buy one here as /
have one at Benson. .-Chas. Barr. "
Failing to return on the appointed
time Eek wrote to Mr.. Hogan and
instructed that in settling for Barr's
services 81. so be deducted in settle
ment for the suit case. Mr.. Hogan
received this letter after Barr had
put in his appearance and demanded
his pay and leaving his services. A
letter was addressed to the hotel
keeper at Benson where Barr had
stopped. The reply stated Barr had
left no grip, there and had no grip,
valise. suitcase or baggage of any kind.
All he had was q small paper package.
Barr arrived in Morris about two
months ago and went to work for the
Hogan Decorating CO.. Very little
is known Of him and he gave out no
information concerning himself. Mr.
Eek has given up the idea of recovering
has suitcase or of ever seeing Barr
again. Should they meet another

S. Stewart Gives Contract for
35O-Barrel Flour Mill in
North Dakota Town.

Work has been commenced on the
erection of new 35O-barrel -four mill
at Mott, N. D. and the achinery
will be on the way in few days.
The promoter of the enterprise is S.
Stewart, of this city. one of the
prominent country -four millers of the
state. Mr.. Stewart is heavily inter-
ested financially at Mott where he
owns and operates the city electric
light plant and one of the largest
elevators in the town.
According to Mr.. Stewards plans
the mill is to be finished about Nov.
Is. 1t will be in charge of James
Johnston who has been the head mil
Ter in the Stewart mill in Morris for
the past eight years. Mr.. Johnston
expects to dispose of his property
here and move his family to Mott
sometime next month. Mr.. Stewart
is spending the week at Mott and is
completing arrangements.

CHURCH BARN USED
TO SHIELD THEFT
Automobile Stolen in Morris Re-
covered by Farmer near
Wendell Sunday.

DR.. Amos Leuty was one of the
happiest men in Morris Monday morn
ing after talking with farmer living
four miles northwest of Wendell,
Grant county The cause of his hap
piness came over the telephone in a
message announ ing the discovery
of the doctors stolen automobile TAX
en- from his garage early last We'd
nesday morning. Accom- panied by
Frank Zahl and Stanley Ryan, DR..
Leuty Immediately set out for Wen
dell and found his car standing in
a church barn ak miles from Wen-
dell, two miles from the Howard
Weaver farm. The car was uuinjur-
ed but the switch key and spark plug
were missing. DR.. Leuty rendered
Mr.. Weaver a check for $25, the
amount of the reward offered for the
return Of the car. Weaver protested
at first saying he did not feel justified
in receiving the money. He said he
had done What ne ronsl0eTeQ DUTY
under the circumstances but the
doctor insistd and the money was
devided between Mr.. Weaver and his
two sons whose curiosity led to the
recovery of the car.
At what particular time the car
was driven into the shed is not
known. Indications lead to the
theory that it was left there during
the early hours of morning while the
dew was still fresh. From the time
it left the Leuty garage till it landed
in the shed it had been run dry OF
oils, but how many miles it had cover
ed could not be determined. A pail
of gloves belonging to F., R. Putnam
and one pair belonging to Nels Olsor
we're found in the car together Will

known. The Putnam and Olson glove

Three Countries Visited but Like Morris Best

They say Minnesota looks better to
them than ever before, and they saw

Mexican California border which they

"We had a fine trip and the fair
was immense. said Mr.. Gaffney to
the Tribune yesterday, "but I am
more than ever pleased with Stevens
county as place of residence, and
think all the rest of the party feel
the same as l do in that respect.

VAGUE GAME LAWS

No Provisions Made to License
Minors and Game Wardens
May Experience Trouble

Hunters in Morris have been look
ing up the game laws the past week
and there seems to be some perplex- :.
ing features. Attorneys who have;
been asked for their opinons agrse
that is an apparent flaw in the word
ing of the law regarding game. birds
and water fowl and the killing of
same by persons 4 under twenty zone
years Of age regardless, of sex. The
matter will probably have to be set
tied in the courts before another
Legislature can frame a more simple
and intelligent law.
According to the provisions to gov

every resident of Minnesota over
twenty one years of age is required to
secure hunting licence from the
county auditor upon payment of ST.

satisfied that the applicant is a bon

ment for each offense.
1t is contended that the laws do not
require license for minors to hunt
in Minnesota during the hunting sea
son. 1t is further pointed out that
no penalties are provided for such
persons, and that consequently game
wardens or other persons have nc
authority to stop them from shooting.
The hunting season opens Tuesday

SCHMIDT',S WATCH
STOLEN BY: y ]! HOBOES B
Morris Lumberman is Victim of
Sneak Thieves in Downtown
Store Saturday night.

Herman Schmidt, bookkeeper at
the Lampert Lumber yard Offices in
this city. is minus watch and chain
and furty cents in change as the re-
suit of his experience in meeting
hoboes in down town store Saturday
evening. Two men suspected of re-
liev;ng him of the ticker were held at
the city Jail over Sunday but were
released Monday afternoon for lack of
evidence. Schmidt feels certain one
os the men went through his pockets
but he was unable to produce conclu-
sive evidence.
Schmidt was buying suit of clothes
at the Vinje clothing store and had
divested himself of his coat and vest
which he had placed on table while
trying un the glad rags in the rear of
the store. While doing so two strang-
ers classified as hoboes entered and
une of them purchased shirt while
his companion sauntered through the
store admiring various articles on dis
play. When Schmidt slipped on his
coat and vest he discovered the watch
and chain missing and further in
vestigation disclosed forty cents in
change had also vanished. One of the
strangers had left the store but the
other was detained and police officer
summoned. Later his companion was
found in one OF the saloons where he
was arrested and searched. The men
were locked up and held till Monday
afternoon when they were released
because of a lack of evidence. One of
the men appeared to be about 35 years
of age and the other about so. They
had all the earmarks of the common
laborer.
During Schmidt's visit at the store
the two strangers were the only mer
who entered the place. 1t is almost
certain one of the two connected witt
Schmidt's property but no direct
evidence was obtainable. Schmid
places the value of his loss at abou
$40 and says the hopes the new pos
SCISSOR of his watch will have bette
success with it than he did. In th'
meantime he is looking about for
new one.
