Wednesday telegrams were sent in every direction but nothing could be heard of the car. However late yesterday afternoon two of the boy* in the employ of Teague Bros, noticed tracks leaving the Boone Trail toward the old power plant, left by the same kino of tires worn on the missing car. Following the deserted road to the power plant however, they seemed as far from a clue a ever. On returning they noticed where th? car ha?l left the road. Upon close investigation the machine was found hidden a mi,,no* second crowth nine? in a veritable* wilderness Oir below the road. Two fences had been taken down to get the car to it^ destination and replaced perfectly. Tin boys say the car was so completed} hidden that it was simply good lucl finding it.
