Thief HUNTING IN THE WEsT.-A few years
ago, there was no individual in Arkansas who
caused more trouble to the good people Of that
State than Dick Hatcher, a notorious horse
thief. Richards exploits were not only daring,
but numerous. His movements were cunning
and stealthy. He would come down on the
barns and catte-yards of the community with
the suddeness of a night-hawk, and before you
could say " look and see!' would be OFF with
booty enough to keep him in sin and cham
pagne for a month. Things at last reached
such pass, that the citizens made up their
minds to offer a reward of one thousand dol
lars for his arrest. Among those who went in
for the prize was Bob Smithers. Bob armed
himself with the usual cutlery his bowie knife
aud revolver, and set out in pursuit of
Hatcher. He started at nine, D. M, and arrived
at the supposed residence of the robber about
midnight. Bob approached cautiously, ex.
amincd the outwork, and took preparatory
peepin at one of the windows. Things were just
as he desired; no one home but the housekeeper.
Bob knocked, obtained admission, and took up
position near blazing fire of oak and
hickory. Having done this, he asked for re-
freshments, and commenced looking around
for landmarks. "Who owns that buffalo over.
coat, and that fox-skin cap?' he inquired.
The gentleman l work for" was the house.
keepers answer. wonder how they would
fit me?" Saying this, Bob got up, tried them
on, and again reseated himself at the fire.
His object in thus Disgusting himself, was to
deceive any member of the gang who should
do as he did-peep in for the purpose Of recon.
noitering. Bob had not chuckled over his well.

ing to what it would lead, he Immediately left
his seat and made an attempt to rush out doors.
Just as he was crossing the threshold, however,
a four-pound fist knocked him fatter than the
stock-market. The next thing big-ist did was
to gag him with q bandanna and throw him
across mule. This was also done in q mo-
ment. When Bob recovered from the "stunnin"
swoon into which the blow bad plunged him, he
undertook to right HIMSELF but met with such
a severe reprimand from q pair of cowhide
boots, that he did not repeat it. After long
tramp through mud and darkness, the caval-
cade arrived and halted ut the magistrate g

when it was discovered that poor Bob had fallen

having heard Of the great reward" had gone
forth to make the same arrest that Bob had EN-

time Bob Smithers appeared in disguise, o,

lention, not only by reason Of the very satisfac-
tory testimonials 10 its efficacy which have been
volunteered by many who have been benefited by

Of people who are afflicted with the distressing
complaint, for which no medicine has before been
made public. DIR. Eastman, who discovered the
efficacy Of his remedy is a physician in this

is physician in whom great confidence is placed

tice, we have no doubt that the medicine deserves
