MONEY VANISHED
Savings of Sioux City Woman in
Trunk stolen.

Sioux City, Aug. 12.-While Mrs.
John Orlaehnovich. 1904 Dace ave-
nue., last evening about 6 O'Clock.
was absent from her home seeking a
teamster to move her household
goods. another teamster backed his
wagon to the door and loaded into
the vehicle a trunk containing $500
in money and a quantity of clothing.
The trunk. in which were all the
savings of Mr.. and Mrs. O~rlachno-
vich, was missed Immediately upon
her return. Neighbors were ques-
toned. but none had seen the wagon
or driver. Prints of wheels i'm the
yard showed that a wagon had been
used.
The police were notified, and a
thorough search was made of Coles
addition and the territory lying be-
tween the addition and Leeds. No
trace Of the thief was found.
Mrs. Orlachnoyich visited police
headquarters last night and. between
sobs, told her story TO Policeman
Frank Toxic. She said the money
had been tied securely in a pillow
slip and placed in the bottom of the
trunk. She was alone when the
money vas placed there, she said.
and supposed that its possession was
known only TO herself and husband.

CORN LOOKING fine
EXCELLENT SAMPLES OF GRAIN
BROUGHT TO CITY-STILL
IN MILK STAGE.

While not predicting a record
breaking crop of corn in the imme-
date vicinity of Madison, farmers
and others who have inspected fields
near here during the week, today
predicted that the yield will come
we'll up TO the average. Only in iso-
lated instances, ii is believed, has
corn been materially injured by dry,
hot weather.
Some very good samples of corn
We're brought to the city yesterday
and today. All ear of corn, still in
the milk stage, which would average
well up with any samples of corn
eve shown here at this season in
former years, was attached to a
stalk taken from the farm, i'm Clarno
township, of Prof. j. w. Goff. of the
State Normal school. The grain is
what is known as the large Wimple,
pedigreed corn. The ear is full and
sound, and measures about 10 inches
in length. The stalk, which was
taken at random, from a field grown
by j. c. Shoemaker, was brought to
The Daily Leader office. Mr.. Shoe
maker, who is a veteran Missouri
corn raiser, said that his field here
is as good as he ever had raised
anywhere.
other exceedingly good samples OF
corn are on exhibition at the Fitz-
gerald hardware store. That corn
was raised on the farm of Martin
Johnson, just east of the chautauqua
grounds on Lake Madison. Two
large ears and a smaller one. all an
excellent quality of grain, give prom
Use Of a rich harvest on Mr.. Johnson's
farm.
1t is predicted that with favorable
weather much corn in this vicinity
will be ripe in three weeks. and some
of it before that time.

NOT SO COLD
UPON FOUR OCCASIONS IN Al
GUST, 1916, TEMPERATURE
LOWER THAN LAST NIGHT.

Persons who last night donned an
extra garment for street wear or
brought III an extra blanket or quilt
for their beds, the while wondering
if the first frost of the season was
at hand and if SO the extent of the
damage it would bring, probably lost
sight of the fact that there were sew
eral nights last August when the
temperature dipped lower than ii
did after shutdown yesterday.
During the early hours this morn
ing the mercury descended to So de-
grees above zero, registering some 40
degrees lower than the maximum
temperature of the ~forepart of the
week. 1t is said that the change
from the long period of torrid wealth
er during July and the forepart of
August led many to believe that the
night and early morning were cooler
than they really we're. Compared
with the temperature of last August,
last night was a reasonably warm
summer period. according to a rec
ord kept by Rev. Mgr. T. A. Flynn.
The record kept by Rev. Mgr. Flynn
discloses that on the night of August
g., last year, the temperature dropped
to As degrees above zero, on the fol-
lowing night it was A degrees above.
on the 10Th of the month 1t was
again A degrees above, and on Au-
gust 80 the mercury registered 3S
degrees above. On the latter night
there was a light frost in low places.
