ARRESTED We learn from the
Youngstown Viadicators of the Sth,
that Patsey Carey was arrested in that
city by Sheriff Logan on the Sunday
evening previous, on charge of being
concerned in the robbery of Tim Con-
foy some time since. That paper says ::
"Carey had eluded fhe vigilance. of
the officers since the robbery up to
this time, which good luck had so en-
boldened him that he thought he was
proof against arrest. Sunday evening
the Sheriff, who is always on the alert
for evil doers, suspected from several
circumstances, that Carey was in the
city. Meeting Capt. Barnitz, he COM
municated his scspicions, and the two
started out to find the worthy if pos
sible. After looking through various
haunts that Carey had been in the
habit of frequenting, without success,
they entered the blue ruin" palace
of Martin Burke on west Federal
street. They had scarcely entered be-
fore the object of their search darted
out of the door and started across the
street, going in the direction of the
c. & NJ. R. r. depot, with the Shiriff
in hot pursuit. Finding that he was
closely pursued by the Sheriff, and
that his flight would be intercepted
by Capt. Barnitz, who was fanking
him, Carey thought to escape by jump
ing fence amongst some lumber, but
in this he was mistaken, for no sooner
had he lit upon the other side than the
Sheriff, who had scaled the fence with
the ease of an acrobat, was upon him.
He was escorted to the lookup, thor
oughly searched, and assigned to cell
number one, where he remained until
next morning, when he was taken to
Garfield Jail, wearing the usual jewell
ry provided for distinguished guests"
If we mistake not. this Carey is a
young man who formerly made his
headquarters in this town, and got
the foolish notion into his head that
honest labor did not agree with him,
and that he could get living by his
wits. Such chaps are sure to come to
grief in the end.
