TIRE Thief IS
NOTPROSECUTED

Dan Ellsworth Tuntinsker late
Thursday evening confessed to Detec-
tive Hutton and J. Howard Worrall,
president of the Auto Service & Sup
ply Company, Ltd, Itha he had stol-
en- two tires from the Shelves of the
company, and had sold them without
turning in the money to the cashier.
Tuntinsker was stopped by police.
man early one morning while enter.
ing the store, but as he was an en-
ploye of the firm in the capacity Of
salesman and collector, nothing fur.
Their was thought of the matter.
The theft was traced through a
young Chinese newsboy, who saw
Tuntinsker emerge from the store at
the corner of Alakea and Merchant
streets Saturday morning at about D
o'clock, carrying tire on his Shout
der The newsboy hung around until
the store was regularly opened and
told about the man on the white mo-
torcycle,' who came so early in rhe
morning. Tuntinsker used key
which mysteriously disappeared some
time ago from the pocket of the shop
foreman of the company.
A severe reprimand, a bad scare
and his, promise to make it his last
and only offense and leave the city,
saved him from being brought up in
police court on the charge. The COM
pany decided not to prosecute. 49,

From the evidence submitted 10 us
in various cases, We are impressed
with the apparent widespread traffic

WELSH MANS INVENTION
INTERESTS WELL MEN

A we'll seal, the invention of Mr..
r. J. Stockton, engineer at the Gulf
Coast mill, is at present attracting
considerable attention from the deep
we'll men and rice farmers of this sec
ton.
Although Mr.. Stockton is not a well
man himself, he observed recently that
the method used by the drillers in
chinking the gap between the well
casing and the suction pipe of the
pump was very crude and in many
cases not satisfactory, their method
being to ram a quantity of old rice
sacks into the gap between the two
pipes trusting to those old sacks the
task Of retarding the flow of water
from the pit back to the well. Real
izing that this method at the least
was no in keeping with the mechanic
al perfection of the balance of the
we'll equipment he set about to devise
an accessory that would be absolute
ly successful in every instance.
The result of his efforts in this line
are apparent in the development OF
the Stockton we'll seal, which we'll men
and expert machinists all agree is
sure to meet every requirement.
The Stockton invention is quite as
simple as it is effective. the old reli-
able force. gravity, being employed
to insure it's effectiveness.
The device consists of cone shap-
ed flange with leather cup shaped
to fit the we'll casing; this flange and
cup are fitted to a short length Of
pipe below the pump and are held in
place while being inserted in the cas-
ing by another flange and a small
spiral spring. After the device is in
place the pressure of water in the pit
above forces the leather cup to the
casively effecting stopping any flow
back to the well.
Besides retarding the flow of wa
ter back into the we'll or air suction
from the outside the invention tends
to reduce friction among its other fea-
lures, only requiring a very short
length of pipe below the pump in the
place of the twenty-foot length that
has heretofore been used.
Showing that his invention has
struck a popular chord, the Layne &
Bowler Co., has ordered two Stockton
Well Seals for trial and they are at
present being manufactured at the
Armstrong Machine and Well Works
