another car, which stopped for the
same reason.
Daddy, that's our carl" cried young
Candy suddenly to his father Candy
stepped out and looked the stranger
car over, and sure enough, the lad was
right. He recognized the car by the
sedan top which had been made to or
der, and saw that it was his car.
you've Got My Car.
There were two young men in the
Cadillac and Candy spoke to the driver.
II see you have my car" he said, cit
was stolen from me three weeks ago"
Impossible" cried the driver. "This
is my car. / bought it three days ago
and can show you the bill of sale"
"Well, let's go in to see the Keno
sha sheriff about it them" suggested
Candy. 81 nkow that's my car, but
we can settle it there"
The young men were obliging and
turned about with Candy, arriving
soon at the sheriff's door, where
Candy explained the situation to I'm
der Sheriff Knipfer. He told Knipfer
that his car had been painted blue with
blue wheels. The Cadillac of the
strangers was black with red wheels.
Knipfer took a knife and lightly
scratched the surface of the paint on
the Wheel and sure enough blue un-
derneath was plainly visible. On the
records in the sheriff's Office there was
a notation of a stolen Cadillac, with
the motor number as given by Candy.
The motor number on the car brought
in Saturday was partly the same and
the rest had been altered.
Believe Young Men Innocent.
j. Nicholas Hoffman, the driver of
the car, told the undersheriff that he
had purchased the car this week thru
an advertisement in a Chicago news
paper. He said he was to pay $4,000
in all for it, on the basis of $1,000
down and $50 month, commencing
August 1. The negotiations were made
with man at the Somerset hotel, and
Hoffman said he had paid the $1,000
and was to pay the rest each month
to ga. L. Bancroft, 5O5 Sheridan road,
Chicago"
While the sheriffs Office believed that
Hoffman was giving true version of
his relation to the car, both he and
his brother were held awaiting the
disposition of the Chicago police who
were duly notified. 1t is expected that
the Chicago officers will arrive here to-
day to get the car and take the Hoff-
man brothers back with them to
Chicago.

Chicago Wax Manufac-
turer Finds His Stolen
Cadillac at Truesdell.
BRINGS CAR TO TOWN
Young Men in Cadillac Be-
lieved to be Innocent Pur-
chasers of "Hot" Car.

Lucky chance led A. T. Candy, Chi
cago wax manufacturer, to take the
trail of the Geneva road Saturday
afternoon just behind a car which
proved to be his own Cadillac sedan
stolen from him three weeks ago at
Chicago: Candy was not only his own
detective but his own marshal as well,
for he took the two young men found
in possession Of the car with him to
the Kenosha sheriff's office. J. Nicho-
las Hoffman, 1917 Ardmore avenue,
Chicago, told the undersheriff that he
was the one who had innocently pur-
chased the shot" car and with him was
his brother, John Peter Hoffman.
The discovery was made by Candy
at the Truesdell crossing Of the Ge-
neva road when he stopped to let a
train pass and found himself along
side of his own Cadillac, recently
stolen from him. When he told the
young men in the Cadillac that it was
his car, they willingly went with him
to the sheriff's office here to discuss
the matter. Candy was able to prove
that it was his car, and Hoffman as a
result will be $1,000 out, as such was
the sum he said he had paid on de-
posit only three days ago to one ga

Boy Recognizes Car.
Candy is secretary and treasurer
of Candy and company, with offices at
401 N. Paulina street, Chicago.
He kept his Cadillac in a garage in
Chicago and one night about three
weeks ago, some one called up the
night man at the garage and repre-
senting himself as "Mr. Candy" ord
cred the car to be brought to his
club and left outside. The order was
complied with, and when the real Mr.
Candy appeared at the garage the next
day he found that his car was gone.
Candy purchased another car mean
while and Saturday he and his wife
and young son set out for Lake Gene
va. When they reached the Truesdell
crossing of the st. Paul road, the
ringing of the bell warned them that
train was coming and they stopped

in her being deserted by her husband,

Northern hospital for the insane For
years efforts were made to restore her
