Thieves Steal and Destroy Camping Outfit on Kankakee.

Thieves on the Kankakee river stole and destroyed on entire camping -outfit belonging to L. P. Kuss, a former merchant of Thayer, but now of Gary, and Hobe Godfrey, of Hammond, Saturday. Never in the history of the river has there been such a complete cleanout as was made by the thievfes who raided the Kuss camp. Three tenl3 were taken down and carried away, a pushboat Was stolen, the loot including three shotguns, two rifles, a revolver, the entire camping equipment, rubber boots, camping furniture, men’s clothes and everything that could be carried away. Mr. and Mrs. Godfrey and Mr. and Mrs. Kuss had located their camp on the Nels Morris ditch, just west of the Gifford bridge. They had one of the most complete camping outfits that has ever been seen on the river. Saturday afternoon the entire party went to Shelby in the motor boat for the purpose of buying the supplies which were to last them over Sunday. When they returned they were amazed to find their camp had disappeared as completely as If it had never been constructed. There was, in fact, nothing left but the site.,upon

which it had been formerly located. The women's clothes, and they had taken enough to last them for several weeks, were evidently of no use to the thieves and so a bonfire had been started and the clothes destroyed. The idea seemed to* be that nothing should be left in the camp that could be carried away. It was seen that the only thing left to do was to return to Hammond and Gary and abandon the camping trip. It fs believed that the theft was accomplished by some of the river rats who have been loitering about the place. As soon as the party left the camp it is believed that the work of carrying it away was begun.

A "Classified Adv.” will rent it.
