After stealing three automobiles

and the North store at Pocatello
and making wild ride thru south
ern Idaho, Temp Smith, 17-year
old boy. C. Gardner, J. J. Kelley
Martha Christman, Ella Pappas anG
Matilda Hatfield, all of Pocatello
were caught at Ogden and are now
being held at the Blackfoot jail
under charge of grand larceny. The
date for the preliminary hearing has
not been set and will beyond doubt
involve a great deal of interest = The
escapades of the culprits are many
their stories vary, but the facts OF
the case, as near as can at this time
be asCertained are as follows:
On August 80 the Blackfoot of.
ficers were notified to watch for
three men and three women suspect
ed of stealing watches, shoes, foun-
tain pens, clothes, silks and knives
from the Lost River Consolidated
Mercantile company at Mackay, max
ing their getaway in stolen Ford
car. The car successfully carried
them and their loot to Moore, where
it became mired. Undaunted in their
fate Saxon car was appropriated at
Moore and driven at high speed
over the desert, until they reached
spot seven miles from Taber where
broken wheel forced the crowd to
spend Saturday with a rancher, hid
ing their stolen possessions.
Two of the men of the party
caught the Mackay freight train, and
at $50 p. m. drove off with Louis
Felt's new seven passenger Stude-
baker car, which was parked in front
of the city hall at Blackfoot. After
picking up the rest Of the party and
the booty they again resumed their
journey.
But by that time the officers all
over this section of Idaho were no.
titled and were fast on their trail.
LSuis Felt offered a reward of $50
for the return of his car and Bing-
ham county put up reward of $100
for the arrest and conviction Of the
thieves, Sheriff Simmons, with a
party followed them from Fort Hall,
over the mountains and was several
times within a few miles of them.

BINGHAM COUNTY LEAGUE
DISCUSS NEW PLANS

For the purpose of considering and
discussing the fall business and max
ing definite arrangements concerning
important matters the directors of
the Bingham County Civic league
met at the city hall, Wednesday aft.
ernoon. The second Wednesday OF
every month at 6.15 p. m. has been
set as the permanent time for hold
ing the regular meetings. At the
close of each meeting the directors
with the chairman for the next
months assembly will prepare the
program and make plans for the FOL
lowing meeting.
The system of financing the league
was changed and hereafter 1t Will
be necessary to have a membership,
under the card system, to this organ
ization. This matter is to be handled
thru any one of the directors, the
secretary or the treasurer, and Will
be explained explicitly at the next
meeting by William Varley.
The condition Of the roads In
Binfham county has been brought to
the attention of this organization and
is being seriously considered. In
contemplation of the heavy crops to
be hauled, the league will make an
effort to have the roads improved.
The matter will be taken up with
the county commissioners, and a re-
port given at the next meeting. 1t
was proposed that all roads should
be irrigated under the direct sup
ervision of the road overseers, how
ever, this matter is in allegiance:
Great deamnds are being made by
the farmers for places to store this
falls crops, especially potatoes, and
the league directors would like all
who have possible places for storage
to notify County Agent r. X. Gron'

INCREASE SHOWN IN
SCHOOL ENROLMENT

The school board and school
authorities greatly feared that there
would be a decrease in the enroll
ment of the Blackfoot schools this
year, owing to the demands for labor
and general conditions brought about
by the war; but are agreeable sur
prised because Of the apparent in
crease. The census of this district
has not been completed but already
shows complete gain over last year
of 76 pupils. The enrolment in the
high school is about on a par of that
of last year, there being approximate
ly 200 students. The only conges-
tions thus far are found in the
seventh B class at the Central school
where there is an enrolment of So
pupils with 10 more to come in; in
the primary grade at Irving, there
being so beginners in the one room;
and in the high school sophomore
English class.
A number of requests have come
in for the teaching of telegraphy In
the high school and there is an effort
being made to meet these demands.
The railroad companies insure posi-
tions to efficient operators and the
cost of equipment for such course
is very slight.
A large class of young ladies have
enrolled for domestic science, the
outside districts being more pre-
valently represented.
There are 70 freshmen enrolled,
which shows some decrease as COM
pared to the previous year. This is
due perhaps to the samll eighth
grade graduating class here last
year; the pupils from other districts
stand in majority. Lots of girls

T. e. Browning of Ogden reached
here Tuesday morning, to the effect
that the entire party and their loot
were captured and held in the jail
in Ogden. 1t appears that the sup
ply of gasoline was almost gone and
money was becoming scarce. The car
and all but two members of the
party were left at place of seclu-
sion in the suburbs of Ogden, while
two of the men with a few articles
betook themselves to Ogden for the
purpose of obtaining money by dis
pensing with some of the stolen
goods. They were successful in sell
ing pair of new shoes at Jew
store, but after several other at
tempts people became suspicious and
called the police, who Immediately
put them under arrest and notified
the authorities here. One of the men
confessed to the chief that they were
the parties that had made the rob-
berries and took him to the place of
hiding, where the stolen goods, con-
cealed in six suitcases were recover
ed.
They were brought to Blackfoot
and are now waiting their prelimin-
airy trial. When seen by our report
er they seemed rather sullen and ar
rogant in their manner, and are ap-
parently dissatisfied with life behind
the bars. They were reasonably well
dressed and ranged in ages from II
to 35.
With them on their journey was
Vivian Hatfield, the f1ve-eyar-old
daughter of Mrs. Matilda Hatfield.
She has been sent to some relative
in Pocatello and will shortly be sent
to the Children's home in Boise.
Mrs. Marie Sheperd and J. H.
Green of the Lost River Consolidat-
ed store in Mackay, were at the court
house, Wednesday, identifying and
making an inventory Of the goods,
and as near as they have now ac-
counted for $500 worth of goods
were in the suit cases. Few Of the
articles had been disposed of,

F. Bergman were appointed as a
committee of the league OF audit the
books and accounts and so maintain
them. The directors further sug-
gested the appointment of an assist
ant secretary.
1t is a difficult matter for the
people left at home" to keep in
touch with the local men who have
answered the call of the nation and
acting under the suggestion from the
Red Cross and the V. l. S. societies,
the following committee was appoint
ed to provide farewell entertainment
and send occasional greetings to the
boys who have gone and who are go
ing into the United States service:
James Duckworth, chairman; Rev.
CLANCY, Rev. Colver, Rev. Peterson,
Rev. George and Father Gresl.

ENTERTAIN FOR BRIDAL COUPLE

Elaborate in details and enjoyable
in every particular was the dinner
party given Monday by Miss Edna
Gillispie and Mrs. Leah Graham Kin
ney, in honor Of the bride and
groom-to-be, Miss Hazel Hackman OF
this city and James Perkins of Ruth,
Nevada. The guests found their
places by dainty place cards and cor
sage bouquets of rose colored sweet
peas. A centerpiece of the same
shade of sweet peas was very attrac.
tive. Covers were laid for eight and
four-course dinner was served by
Miss Georgia Archer and Miss Ruth
Chapman, after which cards were
enjoyed
