SUFFERS LOSS OF CHICKENS Morri3 Stander, farmer residing northwest of thl3 city, is suffering from the repeated invasions of chick en thieves, they having reduced his flock from 130 chickens down to eight lonely birds. Several nights ago the farm chick en house wa3 invaded and all but thirty-eight of the chickens were taken and last night the second raid removed thirty of the survivors of the first visitation. Sheriff Homer Sylvester was call ed out to the scene of the raid this morning and looked over the pos sible traces of the chicken thieves. The sheriff found indications of where the parties had driven away from the Stander farm and was able to follow the trail of the car for. some time, but which was gradually elim inated in the heavily traveled road way. It is hoped that some definite clue of the thieves may be found and the parties brought to justice for their crime.
