I
Chicago, Jan. 23. — The re*
inarkitble disappearance of .$250,
000 la liberty bond's consigned by
the Pirst National iiank of lietroit
Jdicli., u> tb© Studebajser corpora
'iou at South Bend, Ind., remained
a mystery today, although the loss
was noted January 4.
The circumstances are sa'<i' to in
dicate a clever robbery. The bonds,
tweu(y;Xive in numter and. °f the
$10,000 denomination, bear num
utrs from 23,734 to 23,768. Bank
ers and brokers thioughout the
country have been notified to be on
tlio lookout for them.
Post office records at South Bend
ar* said to ghow that five regis
tered packagea were uelivered to
thr> studebaker offices on January
4v The postmaster ha5 five re
cei"t; purporting to show this. Stu
uebatfer employees found four of (
Hie packages, but the fifth, which
contained the bonds, was missing. i
The postmaster is said to have
exhioited a receipt f°r this p»ck
ajjf-, bearing the signature of the
seventeen-year-old mail clerk em
ployed by th« corporation. The lad
uonietf that the s'gnatuie was hib
and insisted that he ha# received
no such package.
Sicce then postal cierKs uave
I been at work, and the vast plant j
| o£ the Studebukers hag been search
ed from basement to roof without
I developing a single clue, it is said,
Kvery employee who could possibly
have seen the package hag been
interrogated1. The case was kept
secret until yesterdiy, believing
mat this method offered greater
chances of success.
I IX A YSW KH TO MAW" INQUIRIES
Skagway, Jan. 23, 1919.
A recent telegram to the school
boarv? announces the fact that an
experienced1 primary eacher has
been secured to take Miss Butt's
place in the public school.
Mi?s Butt, who is an extensive
raucber in her home town in Idaho,
.found, soon after her arrival ' in
Skagway, last fall, that certain busi
ues« complications at the home
raac* would require her early pres*
enre there in the spring. She,
thereiore, asked that another teach
er secured to take her place.
Sitiie tha* time efforts have been
made to get in touch with a good
primary teacher, but as yar condi
tions have brought about a scarcity
of teachers that was not an easy
t'-iic^ to do. However, during Mr.
Halm's holiday visit to Seattle, he
pu' the matter in capable bands
and he has just received notice that
'he right teacher hag been found.
Sb« is expected to arrive some
time In February.
Mit.« Butt's many friends, and es
pecially the parents of her little
ones are expressing great regret at
losiiip her. The school Board
v. isaes it known that they accepted
her resignation only because she
felt that her business interests de
manded her presence in Idaho. They
feel that her place will be hard to
£11 in the school and in the com
munity.

Ottawa, — The Royal Northwest
Mounted Police is to have it? juris
diction extended from lort Arthur
to Victoria. It is understood that
this important decision has been
reached- and thar the necessary or"
dariu-council will be passed im*
mediately. Commissioner Perry of
the police force hag been in Ot
tawa for the last week consultng
with the government and this de
cision has been reached.
Tbr; mounted police will have
charge of the enforcement of fed
eral laws from 'he head of the lakes
to British Columbia. For some
time it has been increasingly appar
ent that a federal force wap neces
sHry to enforce Dominion laws. It
has therefore neen decided instead
of disbanding the forte as was at
one lime proposed to extend its au
thority through the whole of West
ern Canada. In Eastern Canad»
the Dominion police will be in
creased- in strength although there
has been a pioposal to extend the
famous red-coated force to the
whole of Canada. This may be de
cided later.
'lhe force, which now consists of
only some 500 men, will be in
creased to 2,000 or 2,500 men.
Ihere are two squadrons of the
muunted police in France, consist
ing of 740 men. They will be add
ed to the home force. There are al
so ISO men in Siberia. These,
with ex-mounted policemen, who
aie nnxious to return, will likely
orin,* the force tip to strength.
The headquarters of the whole
force will continue in Regina. There
wili also be posts at Port Arthur,
Winuipeg, Nelson, Vanoouver and
other points. Commissioner Perry
will remain in charge. Since the
w-'r there have been a few police
doing DounflCry patrol work in
Manitoba and among the British
Columbia mines, but now they will
continue the work they have form
erly carried* on in Saskatchewan
and Alberta only.
Thf local trappers are catching
a few furs these fieys. Lynx, mink,
muskrat and ermine seem to be
the most plentiful.
The sunrise this morning on Face
mouu'ain was one of the most beau
tiful ever seen and many of our
townspeople enjoyed the sight.
