Man Tried 90 Rob Ed Huston Last
Night on Lonely Road In West
Part Of City But Got
Nothing.
JUMPED OUT OF WEEDS
Illusions AssaiIant Used a Revolver
to Enforce His Demands and /.
Searched Man from
Behind.

Ed Huston, who lives near the Des
MONIES river bridge, was held up last
might and searched by the hold-up
man who held revolver agains,
Illusions ribs, so he reported to the
police. The hold-up occurred about
I11:45 o'clock and the scene was a
dark place in the road this side OF
the Iowa Can company's plant short
distance.
Huston was returning to his home
and was passing along Commercial
Alley There is a culvert where the
road turns near the old Taber Lum-
Der company's barns, and a clump Of
weeds grows high at this point.
AS Huston passed this point man
sprang out of the weeds and ordered
him to hold up his hands. The police
have description of Huston's as
sailant. The hold-up man used re
volver and poked the weapon into his
victims side.
The queer part of the whole per-
Torrance was that the hold-up artist
worked from the rear. He stood be-
hind his victim and searched him for
money. He found his pocketbook and
found nothing in it and stuck it back
in Huston's pocket. He even tried
to search his shoes and socks.
Huston was carrying no money or
valuables, and the hold-up man made
his getaway as soon as he found this
fact out Huston reported the affair
to the police Immediately.

No man or woman who eats meat

forms uric acid which excites the
kidneys. they become overworked

from the blood, then we get sick.
Nearly all rheumatism, headaches,

BOY SCOUTS ARE
. HOSTS At CAMP
Troop One Entertalns Parents and
Friends Fourth Of July and Every
body Has Splendid
Time.
BOYS WIN BALL GAME
Defeat Dads In Five Innings and Now
Dads are Aching for Chance to
Come Back and Beat
Them.

Boy Scouts of Troop One estab-
lished another record for doing things
when they entertained their parents
and friends at Camp McCready,
Fourth of July. The scouts were in
camp Saturday, Sunday and Monday,
! with Sunday as the visiting day ALI
the parents and friends of the troop
visited them Sunday which was vis,-
itors' day and had picnic dinner and
supper with the boys.
Possibly one feature that most i'm.
pressed the visitors was the cere-
mony of retreat which was partici-
pated in by the troop at sunset Re.
| treat is one Of the most impressive
ceremonies in the army, and the
scouts stood the formation with the
precision of veterans Retreat marks
the end of the days activities in the
army, and at all army posts the flag
lis lowered and the national anthem
played, or buglers play ITO the
Colors," with the organizations drawn
iup at attention and present arms"
1.-THE scout ceremony was every bit as
impressive as that Of an army post,
! and to the visitors who have never
seen the ceremony, proved a revela-
/ ton.
The early part of the day was given
over to boating and other water
sports in which the visitors and
scouts participated. In the afternoon
the big ball game was played be-
tween the dads and the boys, and in
live innings the dads had accumu-
lated four runs and the boys had
made five runs The dads incident
ially broke up their chances of win
ming by smashing the ball bat. Riley
broke it first, and then Foulkes took
lit after it had been repaired and
finished the job Scoutmaster Buss
'umpired the game.

The dads are so confident they can
clean up on the boys that they are
going to challenge them to game
some Saturday afternoon.
After supper there were fireworks
and the visitors returned home on the
evening cars we'll pleased with the
entertainment provided by the boys.
At meeting Of the officers of
Troop 1, it was decided that the troop
will hold it's regular summer camp at
Camp McCready, for ten days start.
