Reached MinOt.

VIM. Stevens car which was stolen
from the streets of Minot, Wednesday
night of last week, was located ut
Mohal and Sheriff Scofeld went to
that city Thursday, driving the car
home. The thief had run out Of gas
oline and abandoned the car at Mohall.
He grew suspicious that officers were
on his trail, so he walked from Mo
hall to Grano, boarding a train for
Kenmare. At that place, he was ar
rested by Deputy Sheriff Walstad,
who turned him over to Chief of Po-
lice Jack Kinser, who was coming to
Minot Friday morning with grip full
of evidence in liquor case. The thief
was peaceable enough until he step
ped off the train at Minot, when he
broke and ran. He has not been ap-

cure his name and all that they know
of him is that he is small fellow,
dressed in a light sweater and coat,
and wearing pair of blue overalls.

BLACK GETS VERDICT FOR SS7-
DEFENDANT AWARDED $1,825

Judge Woodrough, in Federal court,
awarded VIM. Black, we'll known
Mountrail county rancher, $87 dam
ages against John LaPorte, who leas-
ed the well known Black ranch on the
Missouri river for five years, ending
in 1917, and awarded the defendant,
LaPorte, S1,S25 in his counter claim.
This was the first civil case on trial
in Federal court in Minot. McGee &
Goss appeared for Black and Palda &
Aaker for LaPorte.
Black leased his ranch to LaPorte
for five years Black claimed that La
Porte allowed his cattle to Craze on
the hay meadow, damaging the grass
and the irrigation drains to the ex-
tent of 100000. He also asked $4,000
punitive damages. LaPorte answered
with counter claim. LaPorte is
now ranching at Miles City, Mont.
Black is one of the best known ranch
ers in the state. He has a very large
ranch and has made several barrels of
money out of his cattle. He spends
his summers on the ranch and his
winters in California. He was county
commissioner Of Ward county in the
early days before the county was di-
vided.
Thirty or forty witnesses from the
vicinity of Sanish appeared at the
trial.

ed that to assure their best work AMI
in order to have full independence for
the, highest expression of their art
they would, upon the completion
their then existing contracts, release
their own pictures, direct to the the
atres of the country.
This move for independence by the
foremost artists of the screen is the
most important and beneficial step
that has been taken in the motion pic
ture business since it assumed it's
leadership in the amusement field.
1t means for the motion picture pa
irons that Mary Pickford, Charlie
Chaplin, Douglas Fairbanks and D.
w. Griffith will hereafter be enabled
to produce pictures in their own way.
They will make fewer pictures than
they have made before, and this in
itself will be an advantage. Hereto
fore they have been obliged to turn
out certain number of productions
within given period and consequent
ly have not always had the time to
perfect their work.

CAR STOLEN IN N|NOT
LOCATED AT PORTAL
r. M. Graham's Car Taken Sunday
Night-One Man Under Arrest at
POrtal-Thieves Trying to Rob
Portal Bank.

A 1919 five passenger 60 h. p. Buick
touring car was stolen from Robert
f. Graham Sunday night and for two
days there was absolutely no trace
as to it's whereabouts. Officers We'd
nesday learned that a car answering
this description had been located at
Portal, N. D., but before the Portal
town marshal could arrest the driver,
he had pulled out with the car, driving
over into Canada, where it is hoped
he will be located within short time.
Three men drove the car from Minot
to Portal and parked the car in the
Portal ball park Monday night. The
marshal saw suspicious looking
character on the street and called him
to walk over to where the marshal
was standing, placing him under ar
rest. A second man was seen and he
was called across the street, but after
walking part way across he grew sus-
picious and ran. The marshal fired
at him but he got away. This was
about two o'clock Tuesday morning.
At the same time car which had
been standing behind the First Ma
tional bank building, came out and the
fellow the marshal fired at jumped in
and the two escaped with the car into
Canada. The third fellow was placed
in the lookup where he is at the
present time 1t is believed that these
men were attempting to rob the bank.
The engine was left running while the
car was standing back of the bank, but
the lights were out.
The fellow who was arrested claims
that the three men came from Minot
and it is believed that he will tell of
his connection with the theft of the
car.
The men had run out of gasoline and
they broke into Che Standard Oil fill
ing station at Portal that night and
replenished their supply. 1t had rain
ed that night and shoe tracks were
plainly seen. The fellow who was ar
rested wore pair of army shoes. The
marshal took them off and took them
to the filing station, the shoes cores
ponding exactly to the tracks. The fel-
low thereupon acknowledged that he
was with the other men when they
stole the gasoline.
Graham's car was stolen from his
garage in Eastwood Park Sunday
night The garage was locked and
the car was locked, but the fellows ev-
identity knew how to connect the wires
and drive away. Graham's car was
full of gasoline and the men had no
trouble in getting away. They broke
into the Pure Oil filling station and
stole two fve- gallon cans of gasoline.
Two overcoats were stolen that night
from c.. F. Truax's car which was
standing in front Of the Presbyterian
church, one being long ulster belong
ing to Mr. Truax and the other
short coat belonging to David Glib of
Sanish. It is believed that these coats
were stolen by the men who drove
away with the Graham car.
