It developed with the announce ment of his arrest, and that of a man named "Slim" Cole who. it is said, wos his accomplice. That systematic robberies have been carried on for morths and that two members of the gang are in custody. The men have been under the suspicion of the local police, and the authorities are cer tain of their thefts from poultry houses near Iaporte. They even knew of expeditions they made to other parts of the staic. ami once went as far as Eafayette. They were unable to get the goods on them, however, in spite? of their ef forts to capture them with the stolen property in their possession. Hutton also posed as a cattle buyer and live stock dealer. He shipped quantities of chickens away from Eaporto and he never seemed to be buying very many. rOULD a census be taken of the satisfactoiy Linoleum jobs laid in South Bend homes Wild's Linoleums would lead the list by a large majority. There is a reason. Wild s Linoleum has gone through the experimental age. The first Linoleum made in America was made by Wild's, and years of manufacture have made it a finished product. We could cite no better recommend than the fact that for 41 years we have sold Wild's Linoleum and today can point to jobs still in use which were laid over a quarter of a century ago. We have hundreds of jobs which have been down for years. Linoleum if it is not made right, or if there is a substitute in material or process is expensive for the customer. The hundreds of satisfactory jobs in South Bend homes proves that Wild's Linoleum is Made Right The Price Schedule: Lie Gems Wild's F'arquet Inlaid, sq. yd. . .$1.40 Wild's Straight Line Inlaid, sq. d. . $1.35 Wild's" "B" Quality Inlaid, sq. vd $1.25 Wild's" Battleship, sq. yd $1.50 Above prices include layin Wild's Cork Carpet, sq. vd .
