4 COUPLE OFTOUGH CITIZENS.
Two HOrse-Thieves, Claiming Dallas
~ Home, Arrested ia sherman.

From the Sherman Register of Sat
urday is taken the following details of
the arrest and confinement of couple
of alleged horse-thieves, who claim to
reside in this city:
yesterday morning two suspicious
looking characters rode up to John
I4ogsdon's livery stable and Offered the
horses they were riding for sale.
Marshal Erwin happened to be
present, and from their manner and
conversation suspecting that all was
not right and they We're Offering stolen
property, determined to watch them.
He then went to iennedy's stable and
told Mr.. Kennedy that he thought the
horses were stolen, aud requested him
to see what amount they would sell the
two for. Not succeeding in getting an
offer for the horses at Logsdon's stable,
the two young men rode directly to
Kennedy's stable, where they imme.
diately repeated their proposition to
sell, and after the expiration of n few
minutes concluded to part with the
two-both splendid horses, with sad
dies and hTidles-for fOrty-ive dollars.
From this Erwin felt that he would
be justiiiahle In arresting them.
which he proceeded to do. They man
| Tested great indignation when first Ia
ken In charge, earnestly aVerred their
innocence, and demanded that they be
released. This Erwin refused to do
until they could give more satisfac-
tory account of themselves, and sepo-
rating them, he went to work with
much skill and tact to get n confession
from them. lie first went to work on
the younger OF them, and finally got
him to crying, but could get no confess
sion. lie then approached the other,
and after much trouble succeeded in
getting him to acknowledge that they
had stolen the horses from Dallas
county, and that they lived in the town
of Dallas. They at first refused to re-
veal their true names, but finally con-
Guiding that it would be impossible to
avoid Identification when taken to
Dallas, ~ Erwin explained that they
would be, they acknowledged their
names to be Mcklndree Evans aud w.
II. Martin. They are both young men,
and admit that they have stolen sew
eral horses previous to this, and say
that they once stole numb OF hor-
SEES In Dallas county and sold them in
Sherman. Martin carried pistol,
which the officer took from him. They
were placed in Me county jail, and
will be taken to Dallas in a few days"
Marshall Erwin, of sherman, ar
rived here Monday night with the two
parties named, and also with two 9TH
ers who are charged with the same of
Tense, but whose names have not been
ascertained. One of the fellows-Mc-
Kendree Evans--says that he has only
been in the State sixty days, and that
during that time he has stolen eleven
horses-a pretty good show for an am
ateur, as he claims to be. He says he
would not have been caught this time
except for the lack of nerve and sense
by his partner. BE that as it may, he
and his confederate In crime are now
safe from the snares of the outer world,
and have nothing to fear except the
action of the grand jury now in SEES

Christmas is Coming.

With the near approach of Christmas
we may expect revival, even if Temporal
~, in almost every department of business
The great holiday of Christendom will
and should be celebrated in every family,
even if the dull times have compelled eve
~ parent to economiZe in advance to save
up for the joyous festival. Not only the
little ones are to be made happy. but the
Older folks relish good fare during the
holidays, and take delight in contributing
to the happiness of all. The Christmas
tree must bear choice and variagated fruit,
the stockings must be filed. and gifts
must be provided. The smoking turkey
and steaming pudding must be ensured
and the cakes and pies, the confections
and the toys must all be there, or there
will be no Christmas at the house which
fails in these essentials.
And then the presents No we'll regu-
ted family can dispense with the hallow-
ed custom of bestowing presents upon rel
atives, friends and neighbors This is an
usage as old as Christmas celebrations; a
feature which grows rather than diminish
es with each year. The liberal lover, the
doting parent. the affectionate child, the
kindly kinsman, the bachelor and the
maid, all devote their savings for sweet
testimonials, and all vie with each other
in csnferring pleasure and pledging at
lection. 1t is beautiful season, observed
with beautiful and appropriate practices
1t is estimated that many millions of
dollars are turned into active circulation
by the Christmas festivities. We are just
at the end of that dull season which in
variably precedes the holidays. since. from
the end of summer up to the time the
thrifty housewife begins her preparations,
the prudent family man boards his earn
ings to make merry at the Christmas jubi-
lee. In few days every home will be ac-
lively filling its larders and providing
good things for the grand jollifcation.-
annapolis Gazette.
The stores viii soon be putting in the
holiday goods and making attractive dis
plays, and the shrewd storekeeper will be
advertising in the TIMES his wares TO
catch the Christmas customer.
