Jay Minnis, Walter Daley and Harold Barker, three boys between the ages of 16 and 19, ran away from home about a week ago and started to hobo it across the country to Wyoming. They had been reading some literature full of exciting situations and evidently decided to become heroes, but their adventures were cut short by an unsympathetic policeman who found them asleep in a boxcar when they got as far as Lansing, and summoned them to the august presence of a police justice.

The parents of the venturesome boys were notified and they brought their sons back with them, a trifle less enthusiastic over traveling.
