Mr.. VIM, Schnabel, proprietor of

still making trips on wheels without
difficulty. This shows the superior
ity of the Caldwell road over any
other into the Jordan Valley and De

Nampa is unable to make the trip even
on runners for considerable portion
of the time, the stage from Caldwell
goes through without an obstacle.

The bodies of the two victims were
taken out of the landslide when

hours time was consumed digging

when found were hardly recognizable.

them was a steep hill of beautifully
colored sand. 1t is believed that the
sand gradually wore away and that
the high winds Sunday caused the
rocks to start on their death-dealing
trip down the hill. On June 81, 1873
40 years ago, a cave-in occurred at the
same point killing tire men.

LY.LATE LAST MONDAY.

Sheriff He'll spent Thursday in Chi
cago tracing Edwin Coke, son of Ben
Coke, Lima farmer, and Frank Mum
don, son of Mrs. Ed. Mundon, a
Platteville widow. He returned Fri
day without any definite clues as to
the boys whereabouts.
The boys, aged 16, disappeared on
Monday night of last week. They took
with them 81 400 in Liberty bonds and
$50 in cash belonging to Ben Coke.
Mr.. Coke discovered his sons absence
about three o'clock Tuesday morning.
He last saw the boy Monday night
when he was with him on the road
near their home. Edwin said he in
tended to go TO an old house nearby
and that was the last seen of him.
Mr.. and Mrs. Coke remained up all
night worrying and about three
O'Clock in the morning Mr. Coke dis
covered that his safe had been rifled.
He notified George Whitcher, a neigh
Dor, and the two men motored to Du-
buque where they notified the police.
Coming home they met Sheriff He'll
in Platteville. The sheriff went with
them to Cuba City where they found
that the two boys had registered on
WOuOdy ulSuI uuuCl IllSlA III
and had left Tuesday morning for Ga
lena At Galena the station agent adj
vised that two boys answering the de-
scription of the missing pair, had
bought tickets for Chicago and made
some inquiries about change of cars
for Pittsburg Sheriff He'll and the
two men went to Chicago the next
day but could not locate the boys.
They notified the local police and
wired the Pittsburg police to look out
for the boys. The bonds are in de-
nomination of four 500 bonds and
one $1,000 bond, all registered. They
are easily negotiated especially with
a crooked broker
Mr. and Mrs. Coke, highly respected
farmers, are Frustrated over the af-
fair They say that Edwin was
quiet, industrious boy who had never
evidenced any tendency toward wan
der-lust" They want their boy back,
bonds or no bonds, but fear he may
realize his wrong-doing and be un-
willing to return to face his parents.
In this case he might never come
back.
The boys are green country lads
who have never been away from
home any distance in their lives A
strict search will be conducted by
the sheriff to locate them
