Fridy night June 49, at Charles Oleson's resi-

About ten o'clock he heard a noise in his back
yard, and went out to inquire the cause. i He
soon discovered several causes in the shape of
as many tramps, who were taking possession
of his barn. He ordered the men off, but they
only responded with threats. Despairing of
coming out victorious if he attacked the gang,
alone, Oleson went back to and entered his
house, leaving it again by the front door to
look up policeman. His wife somewhat un-
easy, accompanied him to the front door to
await his return there. While at the door Mrs
Oleson heard noise in the house. She hasti-
ly entered, and there found two burly ruf1ians
in possession Of her bed room. They were
making themselves at home by a thorough
search through wardrobe and bureau. She
gave scream; this alarmed them, and with
out any plumber they rejoined their comrades
out in the yard near the barn. Just here OLE
son came in with policeman, and both being
informed of the raid, rushed out in the back
yard to catch some one of the tramps. Not
quick enough, the tramps saw them coming
and decamped with such speed that they could
not be overtaken.
