It is said that officials have located
Rev. Daltons car near New Rockford.
It is said the car was found ditched
along one of the roads and up to this
time no one has been arrested IN con-
nection with the theft. Mr.: Dalton
left yesterday for New Rockford and
will undoubtedly drive the car back
today. The fact that most OF these
stolen cars are being ditched soon
after being stolen goes to show that
the work is being done by amatures
and not real car thieves.

Rev. Dalton returned home last
evening from New Rockford where he
went yesterday to bring back his car
which was stolen last Tuesday night.
The car was not damaged to any ex-
tent and the only expense Mr.. Dalton
will have is the cost Of two new tires.
He considers himself very fortunate in
getting his car back. as we understand
the car was not insured The only
thing missing from the car was two
small bibles which were in one Of the
pockets Of the doors. The thieves
probably read these bibles which ap-
parently bothered their conscience and
they abandoned the car in ditch near
New Rockford.
