check from the watcher and after a
little bluffing got it, when he arrested

WOOL THIEVES USE
FORD TRUCK TO
MOVE THEIR BOOTY

some time during Wednesday night
OF last week the wool-hauling outfits
OF George Portlock and Cecil Chris
Hansen, enroute to a Mountain Home
warehouse, camped for the night a
snort distance south of Hot Spring,
were found to have been robbed of a
tour-hundredpound sack of wool
the property of the Bruneau Sheep
company. AS much as is positively
known of the perprators is that they
visited the camp in an auto. and
from the wagon Of Christensen slid
big sack of wool into the machine
which was then driven toward Bru-
neau on the west side of the river
Its trail being easily traced by Port
lock and Christensen to point
near the Congregational church.
AT this point the enterprising
thieves added to their cargo another
third OF sack of wool from the load
ca wagon OF Jess Groves, also bound
Tor the railroad town and camped
Tor the night. Evidently only as
much wool was extracted from the
second find as the auto could accom-
nodate' The sack was ripped open
with a knife.
From this point the trail could be |
10 longer distinguished in the be- |
multiplicity Of tire tracks.
IS far as can be learned there is but
slender chance Of discovery of the
niscreants and none for recovery Of
ne wool.-Bruneau Nugget.

tion OF Major G. M. b. Murphy,
vice president of the Guaranty Trust
company, OF New York, a former

Osborne of Chicago, an expert on
transportation, has made his part
OF the work ready. So has Ernest
Mccullough of Boston, a noted
engineer and authority on sanitation

The Red Cross is here to orga-

Third, give effective assistance
