Officers on Trail
Of Bank Robbers
Kettle Falls Bank Burglary
in 1917 Has Not Been
Forgotten

Paul F. Leonard alias Charles
Smith, alias Charles Lewis, alias
Hulster, who is wanted in connection
with the robbery of the Kettle Falls
branch of the Bank of ColviliS Nov.
II, 1917, has been located III Fort
land according to information re-
ceived from J. T. Moore, chief in
spector of police of Portland
Prosecuting Attorney o. w. Noble
and Deputy Sheriff c. A. Ledgerwood
left Thursday for Olympia to secure
eXtradition papers, and expect to

Columbia Irrigation Company bonds,
and two postoffice money orders
totaling $63. Entrance was gained
at the front door, the safe door was
blown off, the strong box wrecked,
and the burglars made a clean es-
cape, although several residents
heard the explosion. At $3.50 their
auto, which had been stolen from w.
A. Haskins at Marcus, got into a
ditch near Harvey, and they secured
Lester Clinton to drag them out. At

Hunters with a flat tire, and later
the car was found overturned near
Fruitland.

made by finger prints and photo-
graphs.

Automobile Men
Merge Interests
Gates and HydOrn Join
with the Culver & Rich
ardsOn Company

Maturing plans which have been
under way for several months, the
Culver & Richardson Co. now has an
organization which is the largest in
northeastern Washington, compris-
ing all the various units which form
a complete organization for handling
the automobile industry.
Some months ago the company
purchased the building formerly oc-
cupied by the Columbia Garage, at
the corner .of Main and Second. The
space of 60x120 is entirely covered
by brick sales and storage room, and
iron mechanical department.
Earle T. Gates, who conducted the
Colville Weld and Repair Shop,
merges his business with Culver q
Richardson, and this department will
be in charge of Curtis Clinton and
Earl Droz. Battery and ignition
work will form special department
and in the mechanical room is
every equipment needed for speciali-
zation in this important branch of
the automobile business.
The lathe, mill and custom work
will be in charge of Claude Hydom,
we'll known mechanic, who has here
tofore operated his own plant. He
will have the largest lathe in the
county, being 16-foot with 16-inch
swing. All kinds of machine work
will be handled in this department,
the necessities of the sawmill busi-
ness being handled here in the way
of mill work and grinding shafts.
R. F. Benedict will be in charge of
the car repair and blacksmithing
work, and A. P. Rasmussen is also
a skilled mechanic in this depart
ment
The Culver G. Richardson Co. thus
presents an equipment for handling
anything in the line Of car repairs,
regardless of size or kind. The com
pany handles only Buick and Dodge
cars and G. M. C. trucks, but has
made arrangements in Spokane for
Immediately securing any part OF
any make car that may be needed.
The company is stocking connecting
rods and crank shaft bearings for
practically every make of car in this
territory, also piston rings, pins, ETC.
Royce Richardson is plant super
intendent and in charge of the Office
Ross Culver is sales manager. Earle
T. Gates and Robert Davis are the
company's statesmen.

a hard problem for the Colville bat
ters to solve, met his second defeat
this year and was forced to retire
in the seventh inning in favor of
Sites who did a little better 1t was
not entirely a question of poor sup
port by the Marcus team, but the
fact that the Colville team hit the
ball often and hard.
Bill Underwood, who is a star bat
ter for the Colville team, hit one g.
base hit, two 2-base hits and a
single. Gerald Exley proved very
strong at the bat and in the ninth
inning dropped home run over the
railroad track, which brought the
players and spectators alike to their
feet; it was the longest hit ever
made in Marcus. Hydon, Rogers
and Sill were equally strong at the
bat.
The fielding of the Colville team
was very good while that of Marcus
was not so commendable, being weak
in spots.

Prosecuting Attorney
Brings in a Prisoner

Prosecuting Attorney o. w. Noble
took the place of a peace officer
Tuesday night when he took up Col
bert Cannon on the road between
Valley and Springdale, and caused
him TO report to the officers. Cannon
was wanted for escape from the Col
vile Jail two years ago, where he
was held pending investigation of a
charge of mortgaging property which
he did not own.
While in the county Jail he had
been frightened by other prisoners
telling him how serious his case was,
and that he might get as high as
Is years for it. One morning, while
being taken out to breakfast, he
made his escape, and had not been
heard from since. However, the
bank was reimbursed for it's loss, and
investigation disclosed the fact that
the mortgaging of the property was
more of an error than crime on
the part of Cannon, hence it was the
intention to discharge him. But Can
non did not know this.
Tuesday evening, as the prosecut-
ing attorney was driving from Spo-
kane to Colville, he was accosted at
Valley by a youth who asked if he
could ride to Chewelah. Mr.. Noble
recognized him, and at Chewelah said
that Cannon might as we'll come
along with him. Report was accord
ingly made to the officers in Colville,
but it is believed the case will be
dropped. Cannon's two years as a
fugitive have been more punishment
than could possibly have been given
him had he stood trial on the origin
al charge.
This is not the first time Mr.. No
BILE has made what equaled an ar
rest, but it is the first time he has
brought back an escaped prisoner
without warrant.

Corps of Teachers
For the Public Schools

All but three of the teachers have
been selected for the coming year
by the board of the Colville public
school system. The board, which
comprises H. o. Bair, F. Leo Grin
stead and Quinn w. McCord, announ-
ces the following contracts:
Supt. G. l.. Putnam will fill the
second year of his contract made
year ago. Reflections in the high
school faculty include Hugh A. Scar
borough, principal; E. c. Durdle,
Smith-Hughes agriculture; Grace
Engelsen, home economies; Muriel
Anderson, commercial. New teachers
are Robert E. McHugh, graduate of
U. of W., manual training; Juanita
Loomis of Pullman, w. S. c. grad
uate, English and dramatics; George
w. Wallace, w. S. c. graduate, his
tory; Neva Douglas, w. S. C. grad
uate, Spanish and English; Mary
White, U. of W. graduate, science
and biology. Two more teachers are
yet to be selected.
In the grade schools, the following
are reelected Mrs. Alice M. Thomas,
principal; Jessie Rice 5th, Ruthemma
Sturman 4th, Rose d. Eastland I'd
and music. New teachers will be
Jessie Findley of Parkwater Sd, Mary
Buchanan of Cheney 5th and 9th,
Verna Watson of Cheney 4th, Fran
ces johnson of Cheney 1st, Jessie
Chaplin of Lamont 5th and 9th,
Myrtle Loyles of Cheney 1st and I'd,
Mildred Bachelor of Cheney Sd and
4th. Another grade teacher is yet
to be secured.
One more teacher will be used in
the Colville schools than last year.
Two more teachers were recommend
ed by the state high school inspec-
tor, but by eliminating the physical
training course which was led last
year by Miss Weller, and by rear
ranging some of the work of other
teachers, the board believes that the
work can be handled satisfactorily.
This does not mean that athletics
will be eliminated, but that the spe-
cial physical training course will be
dropped and athletics cared for by
other instructors.

COlyille Baseball Team
Making Good Record

When Colville defeated Marcus on
the Marcus diamond Sunday, with a
score of 20 to 4, Colville went on
record as having lost no games this
season, although playing only three
games up to that time. This turned
out to be nothing less than mas
sacre.
1t seems that the nearer the Col
vile team gets to the Canadian line
the better it can hit the pill, and its
performance at Marcus would indi-
cate that it was just a few feet this
side of the line.

year for Chewelah and who had been

aration for Life" and he showed
that the tasks which must be done
by the youth of today are the same
kinds of tasks which have been done
in all ages, but that these things
must be done better in the future.
He explained that an education is
intended to fit the individual not
only for better and happier and
more prosperous life for himself but
to assist the Individual in making
life better for others
The church was crowded to capac-
ity.

Two Are Admitted or Honorable Record in
 Service.

Five more men from foreign lands were adopted as citizens of the United States in the Federal Court, Judge E. Ritchie presiding, yesterday and two applications re- main to be acted upon, perhaps to- morrow.
 The lucky ones were: Gustav T. Echstrom of Sweden, Herman John son of Norway, August Tiedeman of Germany, Damian N. Sverckoff of Bulgaria, Martin Fredeem of Sweden. The last two were admitted on their honorable discharge from the mili- tary service of the United States. MT. Sverckoff enlisted from Cordova and was discharged from Fort Liscum. MT. Fredeen enlisted from the States and was discharged from Fort Bliss.
 INVESTIGATING COZAGOs
 The two remaining applicants are Hughes Clark Hosick of Katalla Scotchman, and Gus Cozakos of Greece. A special investigation is being made in the latter's case.
 Each of the newly adopted citizens passed Deputy District Attorney Harry G. McCain's searching eXamin- ation satisfactorily. evincing unus- ual knowledge of American history, customs and public affairs.

John w. Lognes Post of the Ameri- can Legion will hold it's regular meet ing tomorrow night in Elks' Hall. One of the Legion leaders said today: "The Elks, being 100 per cent Amer ican and no camouflage, have been propmt to offer us, most generously, the use of their hall and convent ences for our meetings. We are grate- ful, too."
 Every woman who had a husband, son or brother in the world war is invited by Commander Warren Fay Tor and his co-workers to attend the meeting tomorrow night, for the pur- pose of forming a Woman's Auxiliary, so necessary to the success of the post.
 Many of the Legion men probably will wish to attend the meeting of the Game Club, which meets to- morrow evening at 7:30 o'clock. For this reason the Legion meeting will open at 8:30, giving them time to at- tend both.
