ONTARIO BASEBALL TEAMS LOSE MONEY TO NAMPA; POPE SPEAKS AT BEND; VALE PRESENTS GOOD SHOW. A. V. COOK KINDS CACHE IN TULES AND ARRESTS TRANSIENT SUSPECT. •Nyssa is not without its Sherlock Holmes. Baldridge Implement company was robbed of guns, knives, scissors and a hair clipper Sunday night, of $75 approximate value. Marshal A. V. Cook has returned the stolen loot and made one arrest. Cook discovered the robbery about 2:30 a. m. Sunday morning while pat- rollng the alley. He found the rear window of the Baldridge store crashed in, and the screen removed from a window of the Nyssa Packing company. Cook called Wesley Browne, manager of the Baldridge store, and together they checked for missing articles. Noth ing was found missing In the meat shop. Monday J. Boor gave Cook the first clue, stating that he had observed two men enter the tules near the railroad tracks. Cook searched the spot thor oughly and found the cache. He also made another find. Some lime had been spilled along the tracks and he had blots of white on his shoes. In town he found a transient whose shoes carired the tell-tale marks—and the stranger's hair was newly clipped. The man's finger prints have been tak en and he Is held in Jail pending the return of proofs. Unfortunately, his companion was not with him at the time of the arrest and he declines to talk. Sheriff C W Glenn Is assisting Cook. Evidently, the thelves intended to en ter the peddling business.

The rear ^windows of Baldridge Im plement company had not been barred, or heavily screened, so the burglars had no difficulty in entering a window Browne says the windows will be barred at once.
