Horse and Buggy Thief.

Friday last a tall, slim, and in his own
opinion, stylish, young man came to Eli
jah Nichols stable, and wanted to hire q
good horse and buggy to go out into the
country and see his sold friend" Bill
Douglass, of Highlander fame. He said
he would return Saturday, that his name
was VIM. Cole, that he had just arrived
from his dear old home in Sturgis, Michi.
gan, and that he was bound to see Bill
lie mentioned, also, rs familiar friends OF
his, several prominent residents in this
county, formerly of Michigan, and aver.
red that nothing would crafty his inner
heart more than to give them all hearty
hand shake again. Mr.. Nichols stable
keeper, being cynical young man, stern.
ly declined to let the Michigander have
horse and vehicle, when Mr.. Nichol.
himself came in, and after listening care
fully to and cogitaIing profoundly upon
Mr.. Coles biography, decided that II
would pay to risk the required outfit
with him. He accordingly got \ RooC
buggy, and Nichols gray trotter, the best
horse In the stable, and departed. SAT
urday he did not return, and Sunday Mr.
Nichols smelled large nice, and riggec
up another good horse and drove out u
Mr.. Douglass farm. He asked Mr.. Doug
lass IL he knew young man named Cole
from Michigan. ".Yes, sir. Is he in this
country" replied Douglass. And ther
suspicion became certainty, and NIchol.
knew his rig was stolen.
Douglas said Cole worked in his stabI,
at Michigan, until he one day traded Ons
OF Douglass ponies for q watch. ana {
Waterman was sent for him, but he sud.
denly disappeared.
Mr.. Nichols returned home, and Mon
day morning, finding that Cole ad beer
seen travelling rapidly northeast on Fri
day, he loaded his revoIvers, aud in compa
ny with Mr.. Paine, started In that diree
ton. kilograms and postal cards haVG
