PORTLAND ARRESTS LOCAL THIEF OF 18 of Eggs and 1,000 Pounds of Butter Hore A man who 11 years ago proved fruit, turkeys, and merchandise here and then jumped a cash bond of $1,500 today is nursing tnjuries in a Portland, Ore., hospital and faces oe of grand larceny and bur- siary. J. C. Hollenbeck made the mistake of burglarizing a Portland business house at the same time a boiler de- cided to blow up, Burleigh county charges of grand larceny avainst Hollenbeck have been outlawed by the statute of limitations but J. T. Moore, chief inspector of Portland police, has written Chris. J. Martineson, Bismarck chief of police, in regard to the man. In 1918 Holfenbeck was the owner and manager of the Sanitary cafe, then located at Fifth street and Broadway avenue. Because he of- fered food prices that “beat other restaurants by a mile,” he built up a substantial trade but also invited sus- picion of police officials. Chris Martineson arrested him one morning just after the man had stolen seven turkeys and hauled them to his restaurant in a two-wheeled cart. He put up his cash bond after being bound over to district court, and immediately disappeared. The Northern Produce company, Stacy-Bismarck company, and Guss- ner's grocery store were the principal losers when Hollenbeck made his noc- turnal trips here. He was charged with stealing 100 cases of eggs (about 3,600 dozen), 1,000 pounds of butter, and 700 turkeys from the produce company, $300 worth of fruit from the fruit wholesalers, and $300 worth of merchandise from the grocery store. He served two and one-half years for burglary in the Nebraska state penitentiary shortly after disappear- ing from Bismarck, Martineson says.

Hugh Allen THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, MO: DAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1929_ THE FIRST AUTHORIZED STORY OF THE LIFE OF THRE COMMANDER OF THE ZEPPELINS CHAPTER X | It was a great day for Friedric! iafen when the word got around in 1923 that Luftschiffbau Zeppelin Times had been hard in the vi lege since the Bodensee and Nord- stern were taken away and the great Zeppelin factories closed, for Friedrichshafen had become a Zep-| pelin town, and the rise and decline of Zeppelin fortunes affected all the inhabitants, The three great ha gers, each one larger than the next, the smaller ones like outgrown co- coons, marked the skyline even more distinctively than the twin towers on the King of Wurtemburg’s sum- mer castle nearby on the lake front. Here were located the Zeppelin shops where canvas and silk and gold beater skins were made into airship coverings and gas cells, and! light-weight duralumin formed into girders, Nearby were the Maybach engine plant, the Dornier airplanc| factory and other subsidiari lost of the male population of| Friedrichshafen had been employed in one or another of the Zeppelin plants. In the slack post-war days Von Gemmingen, Eckener, Colsman and the others used their utmost it genuity to give employment to as many people as possible, trying to hold together the organization. The presses that had been used to make girder parts were diverted to aluminum kitchen ute 1s. Maybach was building automobiles and motor boat engines, the gear plant was building gears for what customers it could find, the Potsdam hangar} near Berlin was leased to a film) company and here the genius of/| Reinhardt and others were already | at work on novel scenic effects. | But the mark was still working) MAIL ORDER HOUSE | HELP UNDER ARREST $20,000 in Thefts Charged to 11 Employes of Minne- apolis Concern Minneapolis, Sept. 80.—(AP)— Eleven employes of the Minncapolis branch of Scars, Roebuck & Com-| pany, mail order house, were under arrest today while thefts said to to- tal $20,000 were being checked. Charles McCarthy, detective for the firm, said evidence indicated the; company had been robbed system- ee for more than a year and a half, Some of the loot has been recov- ered from the homes of the suspects, he said. Articles stolen include ra- dio sets, furniture, kitchen ware, lamps, draperies, and linens. Fake orders and the looting of | delivery trucks with the consent of | Grivers were said to make possible the long list of thefts. Four of the men under arrest, it was explained, were drivers, Under the system em- ployed it was said some employes packed articles for shipment and put them aboard the trucks for delivery to the post office or railroad sta- tions. On the way, the articles would. be removed from the trucks. A checking of accounts after the failure to receive payments for the missing articles was said to have brought about the arrests. Some of them live in Minneapolis and the rest in St. Paul. They were held without charge while officials de- cided whether to prosecute them in the state courts or-to ask postal in- spectors to carry prosecutions into federal court. Further arrests were promised.

Asserts in Sermon O'Neill Must Have Gathered Material Out of Sewers Bishop Walter E. Brown, of the | Helena area, occupied the pulpit of McCabe Methodist church, at the Sunday evening services. He had |dedicated the Deaconess hospital at Mandan in the afternoon and from here he goes to Williston to attend the North Dakota annual conference. The bishop's sermon was of a gospel character, dealing with the subjects of sin and salvation. In the course of it he denounced Eugene O'Neill's nine-act play, the unique “Strange Interlude.” The play was produced at Helena, home city of the bishop. His impression of the drama was that the author had lived in a sewer to obtain his material. In connection with the services the girls glee club of the Indian schoo! sang several numbers under the direc- tion of Mrs. Herman Scheffer. These numbers were “The Earth Is the Lord's,” by Ohl, and “My Creed,” by Bennett. In addition to the bishop, local ministers going from here to Minot and on to Williston tomorrow will in- clude G.
