Confessed the Theft

The Will Moore Ford truck,
now belonging to Nal Anderson,
is in the Tippett wareroom for
safe keeping. Wednesday even
ing of last week the room was
burglarized and the rear right
wheel and two castings stolen
from the truck.
Skeeter Davis, arrested for
the burglary of the Tippett
building in the rear of Bank of
Keytesville and theft of a wheel
off a Ford truck therein, plead
guilty at his preliminary exami-
nation before justice Agee We'd
nesday and was bound over to
circuit court, giving bond in the
sum of $500 for his appearance

Miss Margaret Bunton will be
home for the K. H. S. exercises.
1t is seldom that ficral display
such as was that at the burial of
Mrs. Grace West has been seen
here on any occasion. The mag
nlfcent wreaths and loads of cut
flowers were indeed beautiful.
Nat Butler and Jack Patton
were arrested in connection with
the stealing of the Ford truck
wheel last week but discharged
by justice Agee on molten of
prosecuting attorney Brummall.
There was a great number of
the friends of Hon. H. ]. West
came from Brookfield Saturday
to pay the last sad tribute of re-
spect to Mrs. Grace West and
there was a host of the friends
of Mr.. and Mrs. West from Sal
isbury, Brunswick and this city
present at the burial.
Mr.. w. A. Ficklin has sold his
poultry and egg business here to
w. G. Agee and gave possession
Tuesday. Mr.. Ficklin was not
with US long but during that
time demonstrated that he knew
how to conduct the business that
he engaged in. That the egg
and poultry market got a big
boost as a result of Mr.. Fieklins
disposition to pay fair price
for the produce, no one can deny
In fact since he came here it is
clear that this city has become
the principal market for such
and the trade territory practic-
allydoubled. Mr.. Ficklin has
purchased similar business at
Clifton Hill and his many friends
here while regretting his depart
ure. wish him unbounded sue
cess where ever he goes.

side of The town and his children
attending neighborhood schools
wherethey were popular and pro-
gressive in their studies. The fam
lily attended the Christian church
of which they were members, in
this city as regularly as weather
conditions you'd permit and in all
particulars they were respected.
About 1906 the family moved
to Twin Falls, Ida. and except in
one instance, have never been back
to this section. Among the children
was Miss Blanche, about 10 when
they left for their new home and
accounted one OF the beautltul
girls of the neighborhood. Also
a sister, LYDIA, about 13 years of
age at that time and a handsome
girl but lacking in face and figure

the same neighborhood east Of
