YEGGMEN RAID
GAYVILLE BANK
ESCAPE WITH $4,000 IN LIBERTY
BONDS--CASH is NOT
MOEESTED

Gayyille. Sept. 24.-Yeggmen en-.
tered the Gayville bank and escaped
with at least 5000 in Liberty bonds.
1t appears they were after Liberty
bonds only and made no attempt to
secure cash. They blew the combi-
nation of the vault, rifled 10 or IL
private safety deposit boxes, taking
every Liberty cond they could find.
An officer of the bank stated il
was impossible to tell accurately how
much they secured until the custom
ers appear and a final check is made,
but it is thought the Liberty bonds
carried away are worth at least
$4,000.
No attempt was made to tamper
with the safe or break into any other
of the deposit boxes - the thieves
were apparently just after the bonds.
Nobody heard them, and with the
street dry and hard it was impossible
to tell which way the robbers went,
but some clues were left which are
being followed
During the night someone broke
into the private garage of Father
Link, on Capitol street, and took out
his Chevrolet car, and Sheriff John
son believes that the same persons
may be responsible for both the auto
theft and the bank robbery, and is
making Investigations along this
line.

vided with idmmers. The crowd in
creased as the evening wore on, and
attracted drivers who came near
enough to know that there was
something on" and wanted to know
what it was. Where they were not
properly equipped they soon had
their curiosity satisfied, and as JUS
tee shop was kept open within a few
doors of the corner there was no de-
lay in getting action where the party
arrested was willing to enter his
plea. Several refused to plead and
asked hearing on charges made
against them. In all, nineteen ar
rests were made for the evening.

Coal Shipments

Huron, Sept. 24.-If the threat
Lakes is called, it will seriously re-
tard shipments of coal into South

They said shipments at the present

and that there was plenty of coal on
the docks. If the strike is called,
however, movement of this supply

department few days ago disposed
of the last tract of state school land
in Lincoln county, and got the high.
est price ever paid for that kind oi
land in this state, the tract of 40

southeast counties of the state was
rushed upon the market at $40 an
acre, the minimum under the law.
But now this tract which was re
Jected at that time as not work SIC

OF training all teams and Of allowing

Ice Yachtsmen
Expect Biggest
Season in History

RED BANK, N. j., Nov. 2e.-With a
cold snap here and indications Of
severe winter, ice yachtsmen are busy
sharpening runners and generally tun-
ing up their "white-winged' fiers for
what promises to be big season Of rae
ing on both the North and South Shrews-
bury rivers.

it is said, of landing the championship
pennant Of America and the two rivers
for the South Shrewsbury Club, Elisha
Price. q we'll known skipper Of the latter
club. has bought the former American
championship pennant winner Imp
from the Straus estate. The North
Shrewsbury Ice Yacht Club, O. Red
Bank, has held these remnants for sew
eral years.
The fact that there WAS no racing last
winter, owing to the mild weather, mas
tended to create even keener interest IN
the sport for the coming season, and
with all the younger men interested IN
the game back from war service. the
greatest racing season IS assured.
IL Is expected lHht Jcni !. NipuoH',
of New York, will have his string OF
racers in commission. These include the
champion Inguenue. which. sailed by
RUDE White, won the championship PEN
nant Of the two rivers two years ago
and has one leg on the American pen
nant in a match with the Independent
Club. The Ingenue also has leg on
the W. Harold Powers Cup.
Edward Fielder, who sails knock
about in the summer races of the Rum
son Country Club, will have his former
champion Drub in commission again this
season for the big racing events, and
may be one of the local club defenders.
George W. Bray, whose Daisy put up a
creditable performance winter before
last, will try again for championship
honor.

the "fa.her" of ice yachting, who has
last forty-fve years, says he will be OH
