izens the last part of last, week. The fol

places:
"Lost: A small boy about the size of
a man: barefooted with his dad's boots
on. When last seen was going east:
answers to almost any name you give
him. No reward will be given for his re
turn." Not hearing from him in due course of
time a search party was organized and
he was traced across the line into Ne
braska, where rte had driven around aim
lessly, tramping down about a secth-n of
good grazing bind belonging to Les
Crane. A man seeing him driving
around in a circle wentout to him, when
he inquired for a man by the name of a
color applied to a horse. He did not
know whether it was buy, brown, buck
skin or cream. He was directed to
Dunn's where he found the object of hi:,
search, a fair haired damsel who consent
ed to go riding with him. It was then
thought that a sure enough elopement
had been planned hut upon going to the
home of (he fair lady it was found that
they had just returned. The lady blush
ingiy told the searchers that they bad
just returned from a visit to friends in
the valley No wonder the relatives are
uneasy about this young man as he is
absent minded for last winter ho hitched
up to take his tiest girl riding, drove on"
and forgot to take her along. After
driving three miles he thought of her but
it was too late then to make amends. '
