WESTBY And
COMERTOWN ARE
VISITED BY THIEVES
STORE AT COMERTOWN is BROK-
EN- INTO AND DRUG STORE AT
WESTBY is ROBBED-HOT ON
TRAIL OF THIEVES.
STEAL ROY STAGEBERG'S FORD.
BUT MACHINE is RECOVERED
AT CROSBY.

The ROstad Drug Store was broken
into at Westby last Tuesday night by
thieves who stole 5000 in cash and also
500 IN checks besides a large number
OF diamond rings and other jewelry.
The same evening the Comertown
Mercantile Co. Store was broken into
and a large quantity of merchandise
was stolen in the line of wooden shirts,
clothing, etc.
The Sheriff's office was notified i'm
mediately upon the discovery of the
robbery which was the next morning
and Sheriff Salisbury rushed to the
scene Of the thieves activities immedi-
ately
He picked up clue at Dooley and
from what he learned the thieves ate
supper in Comertown at 1880 o'clock
and after entering the store in that
town went to Westby where they en-
tered the Rostad Drug Store as above
mentioned.
The thieves, who apparently trav-
eled without a car, after robbing the
Drug Store went the rounds of the
various garages and tried to steal an
auto, but were unsuccessful until thew
came to the Roy Stageberg Ford,
which they were able to start and pet
away with. The car was later picked
up at Crosby, N. D., and the Sheriff
is hot on the heels of the culprits.
1t is understood that many of the
citizens in Westby believe that they
should have night watch and that
if they had had a night watch the rob
berry in Westby might not have taken
place. They argue that towns with
no protection whatsoever from bur
glars after dark fall easy prey to
these highwaymen and bid thieves to
come to their town and plunder their
business houses. 1t is thought that
Westby viii probably take some action
of precaution against these night ma
rauders in order to prevent future
robberies in their town.

SUN ECLIPSE
SEEN MONDAY

Yes, it was not to be the end of the
world, but on September 10th the
country had a total or partial
eclipse of the sun, depending in what
| state you live, according to astron-
Omers who disagree as to the
time of the last total eclipse which, it
is said, the last appeared 54 and 18
years ago.
The fact is, there are still survivors
of the last total eclipse whether it be
either the one 81 years ago or the one
Is years ago. There are a plenty who
declare that "cows came home to be
milked," "rOosters crowed their twi-
light solos," and "stars shone bright"
on either or both the occasions.
The eclipse was visible here from noon
Monday until 2:25 o'clock, which time
will likely apply to Helena and other
parts of the state. Only a partial
eclipse will occur there with the likeli-
hoOl that a total eclipse occurred in
California.
According to astronomists, the path
of the total obscuration was 105
miles wide and the central line will
pass among the islands off the south
ern coast of California. The northern
limit of the totality laid one mile to
the northeast of Santa Barbara, Cal,
% miles to the southwest of Los An
geles; IL miles to the northeast Of San
Diego.

INSANE MAN
HBROUGHT
TO OPLENTYWOOD

Joe Kahut, man of deranged mind,
who has been wandering around aim
lessly in the Coalridge country and
who has no way of gaining a liveli-
hood, was brought into Plentywood
Wednesday morning after an all night
search for the man by Sheriff Sails
bury and Under-Sheriff Aldrich.
Residents of the COalridge precinct
reported the man to the county of
ticials, stating that the women folks
were badly scared by his coming up to
the house without warning and seek
ing food. This often happened when
the men of the house were away and
in order to relieve the people of that
part of Sheridan county from a con-
slant menace it was thought best to
place the man where he could be taken
care of.
Kahut is rather a harmless sort of
creature and has been living on 90
pliers and rabbits which he killed on
the prairie and from what he could
beg in the shape of bread, etc. He is
about 40 years old. During the dark
ness of night the crazed man would
creep into the gardens and help him
self to vegetables, etc. The whole
community in which the unfortunate
man operated will breathe easier be-
cause of his being taken up by the Of
ticials and the unfortunate man will
also be better off as he will receive
better care.

POPULAR YOUNG
SCOBEY COUPLE
MARRIED HERE

Last Monday Floyd Sunderland ano
Anita BertOnneau stole a march on
their friends in Scobey and quietly
autoing down to this city were mar
ried by Father O'Rourke, DR.. Sells
and DIR. Storkan being witnesses.
The bride is beautiful and accomp-
lished young lady Of Scobey, and is
very popular in the social circles of
that city. She had recently been en-
ployed at the SoObey Sentinel office as
clerk.
The groom is we'll known in Plenty
wood, having resided here for a num-
ber of years before going to Scobey.
Floyd is greatly respected by all who
know him and was very popular both
here and in Scobey. He was known as
a very stright forward young man and
a square shooter.
The young people also disappeared
from PlentywoOd without their mission
being known and autoed over to Will
iston, N. D., where they will spend
their honeymoon at the home of
Floyd's brother George. 1t is said
that a royal welcome is awaiting the
happy young couple on their return
to the big end town.
The Producers News joins with the
many friends of this young couple in
wishing them a happy voyage through
life as husband and wife.

FRED EKSTEDT HAS
PAINFUL ACCIDENT

Last Friday, while threshing on the
Pete Erickson farm near Dooley, Fred
Ekstedt had the misfortune to get his
arm into a pulley. He was immedi-
ately brought into Plentywood by
Frank Fishbeck who was at the Erick-
son farm at the time. Upon an X-Ray
being taken of the injured arm it was
found that two bones in the wrist were
broken. The bones were set by the
doctor and bandaged up and Carl Elk
stedt, brother Of Fred, took Mr.. Elk
stedt back to his home again.
Just how the unfortunate affair
happened is not quite cleaer to Mr..
Ekstedt, but it seems that he was
pulling away some weeds which had
accumulated near one of the pulleys
on the separator and his hand in some
way slipped into the machine.

It will study its own needs thor
oughly. and it will lay out programs
of achievement which it hopes to
realize. 1t needs better schools,
better roads. better transportation,
improved systems of cooperation and
more scientific education among farm
ers etc. its organizations will have
committees working for such definite
and specific ends. 1t will not set inn
possible goals which are beyond its
reach, but it will try to decide what
can be done on some reasonable pro-
gram that = live country town could
expect to accomplish, and then it will
work with united energy to get those
things done.
In the effort for improvement,
there must always be some disap-
pointments and failures. But the
town that sets certain people to work
to accomplish certain well defined
ends, is going to come a great deal
nearer accomplishing those gains than
the old time country town which Just
drifted along without effort to i'm
prove civic conditions or secure bet
ter industrial and business methods
and facilities.
