Farmer Finds Bones
 Of 12-Foot Mastodon

UPLAND, Ind. May 15-The bones of mastodon 12 feet high and 16 feet long here have been found on the farm of J. w. Jones.
 Jones, inspecting a washout, noticed a massive jawbone pro- truding from the earth. He called Prof. J. H. Furbay of the Taylor University, and 30 students of the college excavated other parts of the prehistoric animal. It is expected every part of the skele- ton will be found.
 The American Museum of Nat ural History at New York has estimated the Upland mastodon lived at least 10000 years ago.
 Indiana has proved a fertile field for the finding of animals of the Pleistoeene age. In the swamp lands of the northern part of the State many elephantine beats that roamed the country in prehistoric times met their deaths, mired in the muck.

LOUISIANA CITY
 IS STILL RULED
 BY FIRST MAYOR

BOGALUSA, La, May 15-This little city of 16,000 people has had but one mayor.
 He is w. H. Sullivan and was elected in 1914, when the town first was incorporated. Three times since then he has been re- elected without opposition and ap- parently has the office so long as he is willing to serve. Here is the reason:
 Unlike many villages that grow up about lumber mills only to slump when the plant has cut it's timber and moved away, Bogalusa has become an orderly city of paved streets, public parks, beau tiful public buildings, golf courses and churches.
 All this has been accomplished under the leadership of Mayor Sullivan, who also is .presi- dent and general manager of a great lumber company. He fath- cred the re-forestation movement in Louisiana, which is responsible for the growth and permanency of Bogalusa.
 Behind the cutting crews fol lows a planting squad. And to- day more than 100000 acres of growing pine trees clothe lands which otherwise would be barren hills
 Unique among Bogalusa's un- usual structures is a giant refuse burner It's idleness is monu. ment to Mayor Sullivans ideal of efficiency and economy.

Farmers and Poultry Raisers
Sleep Better Now That Ar
thur Mihlhorn Is Locked Up.
Stole l 500 Hens.

Farmers. especially poultry raisers.
throughout Holland and Windham
counties, are sleeping much better
since Arthur Mihlhorn Of East Hart
ford. was arrested and convicted Of
chicken stealing and sentenced 70 the
state reformatory at Cheshire in the
superior court at Rockville, last week.
A series Of chicken thefts had
alarmed the countryside. Poultry rails
ers would awaken in the morning TO
find their hen houses without a sign
Of life. Il was believed that some
sort Of gas was used TO overcome the
flock and allow the chickens TO be
gathered up without any disturbing
noises
The state police were called IN and
il was not long before Mihlhorn had
been arrested and confessed 70 many
chicken thefts. II is said that he adj
mitted stealing more than 500 chick
ems during the past few months, GOV.
ering several counties in the state.

GROCERY STORE
is BURCLARIZE.D
SUNDAY NIGHT

Marking the first robbery in several
days the grocery store operated by
George Roark, at 1914 Seventh street,
was broken into Sunday night and
a quantity of tobacco, soap, chewing
gum and candy taken. The place was
entered through the use OF the same
trick the twilight burglar used several
times, namely the breaking Of n
window.
A big pane of glass was completely
broken out and the loot must have
been carried away in gunny sacks,
police believe. The entire stock of
tcbaccos, cigarette papers, chewing
gum and life savers was listed among
the loot. The store is no3 large
one so that the stock Of each article
amounted to about one case.
No groceries were taken so far as
could be determined and it is
indicated that the robber wanted the
supplies for his own use or possibly
for the use of a gang OF which
he was member The police are
working on several clews. They state
that they do not believe that this
robbery was committed by the twi-
light burglar who has been strangely
silent and inactive for week.
