Mr.. J. E. McQuiston, our genial R.

A Mr.. Click, of Mason, had his
Ford car stolen Saturday night. On
Sabbath, Mr.. Click, in company with
Deputy Sheriff S. L. Delaney, of
Mason, got on track Of the car and
followed it on down this way in the
direction of the highway, and found
the car Sabbath afternoon stranded,
for want OF gasoline, on the old Cow
ington public road near the home Of
Mr.. v. L. Payne. Doubtless those
VINO stole the car had to leave it
alter running out Of gas. We under
stand Nh. Delaney thought at first
that they were on track of the thief,
but lost the trail. We hope they may
catch him yet.

We heard a few days ago that
Sheriff Volz, with some of his boys,
was among the hills and ravines be-

such things in this part of the county.
1t seems in these times Of possibili-
ties we are not surprised at the find
ing of a still anywhere.
