Tacoma, Feb. 2.—Kidnapped from the busiest corner in Tacoma yester- day morning, Arthur Rust, 20 years old, son of W. R. Rust, Tacoma cap- italist, was held prisoner for more than an hour in an old garage while Winthrop ' his captors attempted to extort :25.‘| 000 from his father. Rupert Berg, 23 years old, who car- ried the message from the kidnapper to the banker, is under arrest. Rust was on his way to work at the Bank of California when he was invited to ride with a stranger who drove up in a big automobile. At the corner | nearest the bank the driver of the car drew a pistol, ordering Rust to [ keep quiet if he valued life. The prisoner was taken to the ga- rage, where he ‘was forced to write | a note to his father informing him | that he was a prisoner and that if $26,000 was not forthcoming he would be dead. While the messen- | ger was en route to town and the kidnapper on the outside of the ga- rage young Rust managed to ex- tricate himself from the blankets and rope that bound him. He saw a col- ored man, to whom he called for help. A superintendent of a nearby factory came to Rust's assistance. Rust’s father was notified. The po- | lice chief sent out two automobile loads of police, 'rhed the kidnapper had escaped.

Willheimer deciared he was frankly skeptical of the ancient belief that if the little brute sees his shadow when he comes out of his hole on February (- hard winter in sight and back for a six weeks' snooze. Months ago he began preparations for today’'s experiment. For fear one ¥roundhog might not act true to tra- goes a catnap, thus neither proving nor disproving anything, Willheimer laid in a supply of five. The groundhogs were billeted ad- vantageously along the creek bank while the investigator was perched in to watch for their exit.
