TALKS IN SLEEP OF THEFT
Ranch Foreman in California Arreste j
On Statements of His
"Bunkie."

Los Angeles, CaI.-Edward A. An
dries was taken from an caSt-bOund
limited train ut Pasadena and sent To
the county Jail because Deputy Shcr-
ifs Fox and Nolan alleged Andres had
talked too much in his sleep. The Off
GERS explained that the prisoners
'bunkic" had told of the talking. In
which an cmbezzlement at the Glen
more QaD post office, years ago. was
mentioned.
For some few years Andres had
been foreman on a ranch in the Mnlibu
hills. During the past few weeks he
was declared to have talked while
asleep and to have mentioned in a
broken and somewhat rambling man
nor how he had robbed the post office
while postmaster.
Local government officials are inves-
tigating the ease. If sufficient evidence
is uncovered Andres will be taken to
Glenmore for trial.

ton of greater length in coats. In the
matter of trimming and In trim, def

nearly all the new models for fall, IS
plain, finished with hem and cut
about ankle length. The rule for length

definitely rclegated to the past as the
