THE CHASE AFTER MINT
BANDITS is FRUlTLESG
City and County Of Denver n
Kansas City Federal Reserve Bank
Offering Rewards Totailn9 $4,000.

Denver, Colo.-Denver, st2te and
federal authorities after a day and q
night spent in searching for the
masked bandits who shot n killed
Charles Linton. stole a consignment
Of 100000 from federal reserve
guards and then made their escape in
one OF the most daring and sensation
al daylight holdups ever staged in
the west, were without tangible clews
as to the identity of the bandits.
Police, spurred on by the offering
of a reward Of $4,000 for the bandits,
dead or alive, by the city and
county and by an additional reward
%aggregating $4,000 offered by the
Kansas City federal bank. admitted
that, although they had many clews
that promised possibilities, they were
still far from the solution of the hold
up. Detectives and patrolmen (the
entire department having been on
duty during the day. were dispatched
throughout the city many times in
investigating the numerous clews that
came to the attention OF the police.
A squad of IA detectives is engaged
in watching a rooming house in the
immediate vicinity OF the govern
ment mint, where earlier in the day a
car, evidently left on the street by the
bandits to be used in case Of accident
to their own machine during the hold
up, was discovered through informa-
ton furnished by a m The car,
an investigation showed, had been
stolen Sunday evening and was
equipped with a license tag stolen
more than two weeks ago from the
car Of the deputy county clerk of
Jefferson county, at Golden.
The automobile, according to the
woman, had been parked on the street
by three men about an hour proceed
ing the holdup and subsequent gun
fight on the front steps OF the main
entrance to the mint. Investigation
showed that the gasoline tank had
been we'll filled.
Continued questioning Of eyewlt-
nesses and other persons throughout
the day by Chief Fl. r. Williams and
Captain of Detectives Washington
Rinker failed to shed any additional
light on the identity of the men re
sponsible for the robbery. That the
robbery was accomplished by Denver
bandits and not by outside highway
men Is the belief of Chief of Police
Williams and search for them is be
ing conducted with that theory in
mind, although every clew or bit OF
issormation that appears to be worthy
Of consideration regarding the escape
of the bandits is being run down, de-
clared Chief Williams.
Roads leading into the mountains
were thoroughly policeG by details OF
policemen in an effort to find trace
OF the escaped men, but all searching
parties reported to headquarters that
their trips had been fruitless.

here indicate.
But whether he will be able TO re-
gain his place in the world of stars,
they said, was Arbuckle's own affair,
To be thrashed out by the motion
picture patrons themselves,-and
there was a wide divergence Of opin-
ion as to the probable result.
Officials OF the Motion Picture
Theatre Owners OF America said that
body had been flooded with letters
and kilograms, most OF which oppose
Arbuckle's return, expressing surprise
at Mr.. Hays action, the organization
statement continued.

only direct contact with the public, We
know OF no new developments to
change the minds OF the people ION

public alone constitute the judges OF
what should or should not appear on
the screen, the American people will
determine whether or not they want
Arbuckle films. No act OF any Official
can make UP the public mind in this
matter"
At the offices of the Famous Play
ers, which has three pictures made
by Arbuckle before his arrest in con-
nection with Miss Rappe's death, it
was said that no change had been
made in the company's policy of
withholding the films. No official
would indicate, however, whether q
change in policy was contemplated.
Joseph Schenck has contracted to pro-
duce new Arbuckle films, but whether
Arbuckle's test will be made with the
films now on hand or those Schenck
plans to produce has not been def
initeiy determined.

lev Waves Take Large Toll.

Chicago.-Fighting foot by foot
through towering seas and freezing
spray, the men who go down to the
sea in ships are fighting an epochal
battle across the icy waves of Lake
Superior to keep navigation open far
beyond it's usual time and bring down
the lakes the last cargo of the year.
Already the fight has claimed its
toll Of lives, and before the last ship
has been accounted for-or been
given up for lost-that toll may be
greater.
Nearly a dozen died a few days ago
when a Canadian steamer was washed
to pieces within a stones throw OF
safety at the mouth Of the Portage
Lake Ship canal.
Navigation on the upper lakes u.s.
ually closes December 1. This year
it was decided to keep the waterways
open until December Is, because the
coal and rail strikes had cut down the
coal shipped to the northwest and de-
layed the movement of grain east.
As a result nine big freighters.

And so did all the guests which was
just as it should be.

had though they were anything but
pretty and graceful!
The Blizzard Boys came along and
the Icicle Girls came when Mr.. Wind
began to blow his very cold winter
tune.
This was the song which went with
the very cold winter tune:
[ love the snow,
i love the ice. ~
I think that both
Are very nice.
/ love the rain,
/ love the slush,
To them ] never
Will say hush!
I love King Storm,
/ love Prince Sleet.
Together they can
Give q party quite neat.
King Storm has just come.
I invited him too.
1t was just as Prime Sleet
Asked me to do.
The people complain
When a storm comes along
But that doesn't change
The tune OF our song.
We sing and we whistle,
We laugh and we dance,
Cold air we have with US
And 1t helps make us prance.
Oh, the very cold weather
Is our keenest delight
But the great winter storms
With their power and their might
Make us happy as happy as happy can be-.
For they fill us with JOY
And they fill Ms with fun.
Oh. Prince Sleet, 80 dashing.
Our hearts you have won.
You are loved by your friends.
So don't mind all the others
For we're your admirers and loving
storm brothers.
Heigh-ho, heigh-ho,
! The winter and the snow.
And Prince Sleet giving a party.
While cold air Mr.. Wind will blow!
And all of Prince Sleet's guests
danced to the music OF this song.
which Mr.. Wind sang.
