STOLEN AUTO
FOUND BURNED
EAST OF CITY
Vandalism Suspected in Loss
of Big Car; Machine Is
Total Loss.

The burned wreck of a big seven
passenger Studebaker touring car,
stolen from in front Of the BUTLER
Nash garage on Central avenue early
Tuesday night, was found about five
miles southeast of Great Falls, on
Valeria way. Thursday night by Deputy
Sheriff Fred Huotari.
Every scrap of inflammable material
about the car was entirely burned.
Officers said that in their opinion the
car mad been deliberately destroyed.
Hardly IN one case out of a hundred
it would be possible for the car to be
so entirely destroyed from a fire
originating from the motor, they said.
Nothing had been removed from the
car except one front. tire. This tire
was reported by the Butler garage,
owner of the car, to be new. With the
possible exception of the motor, the
remains of the car wouldn't be worth
- cents as salvage, the officers said.
The car had been driven off the
road. about a mile and a half beyond
the Rainbow falls, and about half over
a barbed wire fence. One post of the
fence was broken off and several
strands of wire lay beneath the wreck.

ELEVATOR FIRM
MAKESL0ANS ON
STORED WHEAT
Rocky Mountain Company In
augurates New System in
Handling Grain.

A grain loan department has been
established by the Rocky Mountain
Elevator company, according 10 j. W.
Sherwood, manager of the Royal Mill
ing with which the elevators
are affiliated.
The loan department, which VIII
make loans on grain stored IN eie-
vators of the company, will lend money
UP to, so per cent of the card value
of the wheat at six per cent interest.
Under, the system, the farmer who mas
obtained a loan on his wheat may dis
pose of it at any time Of the wear he
desires or he may take another option
of the loan whereby the wheat is sold
at the rate of a certain amount each
month. thus obtaining the average
price for the year. This plan results In
the farmer being paid in a monthly IN
come rather than a single lump sum.
The loans are made upon appllca-
ton to the manager of any OF the
Rocky Mountain elevators and ap-
provaI of the Great Falls offices. The
grain must be free from m incum-
brance such as liens or mortgages.
"On many occasions during and Just
after the harvest wheat is low IN
price" Mr.. Sherwood said, and added:
MANY farmers are compelled to sell
their wheat at once to raise necessary
cash. Many of them would prefer to
hold it. This effort nay help in re-
moving the long standing
idea that elevators buy wheat and hold
it or sell depending upon the market.
mo elevator company can afford to
do that. We have a market for the
grain we receive and it is sold the
moment title passes to us. If the
market goes up some one else makes
a profit and if it goes down some n
else takes the loss. We could not
operate on the basis of 100000
bushels of wheat, for instance, and
have the market drop 10 cents a
bushel. The loss would be large. To
avoid this loss we cannot hold for a
profit"
The new grain loans are made on
application to elevator managers, which
are passed upon in the head offices and
on approval the loan is made with a
minimum of red tape and within a
short time.

Notes by Wire
| to The Argus

Paris, May 11.-Hand painting
has now reached evening cloaks,
having progressed from hats to
gowns to shoes. The ultimate in
chic at the moment is black satin
evening wrap overlaid with a faint
design In silver paint Still more
effective is an evening wrap of some
thin black material with a meander-
ing design in pale gold paint Now
and then a thin wrap gold painted is
put over a black satin, silver
painted foundation. This latter idea
seems to be the apotheSis of the gold
and silver and vogue. The effect is
beautiful, but the accompanying
gown must needs be very rich in
texture.
London, May 11.-Scarcely had
the hoop skirt begun to assert itself
when lacQuered satin took the stage
and suddenly the evening gowns
began to twine themselves about
the figure in the old oriental style.
The very new formal frocks remind
one of the photographs of actresses
some twenty years ago when every
stage star had at least one picture
of herself closely wrapped in a
length of silk that twined about the
feet. The gowns do not actually
Irvine about the feet but they taper
to a remarkable narrow compass.
Paris, May 10.-The fish-taiI has
returned as an appendage to some
of the afternoon and evening cos
tunes. It is used with rather mar
row costumes of cleaning material
and gives a prettily mermaid look
Couture ornaments have grown al
most topheayy. They are built up Of
jewels and beads and frequently
hug the head like boudoir caps. On
each side a huge evolution of the
earring covers the ears and wrinkles
even below the shoulders.
