GENESSEE BOTHERED
BY PETTY TX|EVERY
MANY SMALL ARTICLES STOLEN
FIRE DESTROYS WHEAT
-LABORER LOST MONEY,

There has been considerable COM
plant about thieving being carried
on in town recently. The latest to
occur was on Thursday night of last
week when some one entered the gar
age of Milton RAIDER at his home lin
the west part of town and took two
good tires from his Ford car, ONE
from a rear wheel and one from
front wheel. The one taken from the
rear wheel was of the Lee make and
was almost new and the other was
in good condition. Mr.. RAIDER says
he will pay a good reward for evi-
dence leading to the arrest of the
guilty party.
One night last week two men, or
boys, were found in the basement of
the Morscheck garage. George Nor
scheck had been to Lewiston and re-
turning during the night heard
noise in the basement and switching
on the light went down and saw the
feet of two men disappearing out the
rear door of the basement. Entrance
had been gained by forcing the rear
basement door.
At other times men have been seen
sneaking around the alleys in the
business section at night and while no
other reports have been made regard
ing buildings being entered, there is
little reason to doubt but that their
were not good.
A night marshal should be put on
duty in order to make sure that no
further thieving is done.
Fire Destroys Wheat
A fire at the Shermon Wahl ranch
Tuesday afternoon destroyed some $50
sacks of wheat belonging to Gamble
& Wahl. The straw stack was Slso
destroyed.
Chas. Schooler was doing the
and the machine had been
stopped during a shower and they
we're just getting started again when
flames were seen to come from the
side of the stack opposite the machine
The machine was hastily removed and
was not damaged The loss was fully
covered by insurance.
HOnesy Best Policy
In the want ads is a notice of a lost |
oocketbook containing $110, which |
vas lost nearly two weeks ago. The |
oser is working man and is very |
anxious to find his purse.
1t would seem that any one who |
to be the least bit honest |
would report a find like that. and if |
hey do not it is self-evident that they !
would make way with anything else
hey could get if they thought they |
would not be caught.
Threshing Interfered With
The weather man has again badly |
nterfered with threshing operations
n this section of the country. 1t has
,een raining intermittently for the
,ast week or more and just about the
ime the grain gets dry enough for
hreshing Old Jupiter Pluvius gets
,usy and dampens things up.
It is estimated that not more than
alf of the threshing has been done
n the Genesee territory.
