FOUND!
$4,000 STOLEN MONEY.
THE THIEF IN CUSTODY.

Our readers will remember the ac.
count published in the AVALANCHE
last December of the loss or theft of a
money package containing $4,000,
which belonged to this county, and
was sent by County Treasurer Davis
from Lansing by express. The mes
senger on that train, Mr.. ID. Newman.
was positive that the package reached
this point, while the agent here, Mr.
Lamport, was equally positive that it
was not in his possession when he
checked off the packages after the de-
parture of the train.
Both these gentlemen were above
suspicion, hence the affair was cnvel-
oped in mystery, which grew with the
lapse of time. The express company
made good the loss to the county, and
offered a reward for the apprehension
of the thief and recovery of the prop
crty. There the matter rested and had
apparently passed from the minds of
our people, but meanwhile Sheriff
London was not idle. His theory was
that the package was abstracted here
while Mr.. Lamport, who was also bag
gageman and station agent, was re-
ceiving baggage from the train and
must have been taken by some one ac-
quainted with the place, but who. was
the question.
While revolving the matter in his
mi he found that young man
named Adelbert ID. Price, who was
working on the section here, and who
was known to be in very moderate cir
cunstances, had thrown up his job and
suddenly became a man of considera.
ble leisure, with money at his com
mand. His suspicious we're aroused
and he shadowed him from that hour
till he found he had paid out over ST.
600 and had received nothing from
outside parties. He had bought horses,
wagons and buggies to start a livery
stable and had money to pay for all he
bought. These things satisfied the
sheriff that the money was in the house
or near at hand, and on Friday he had
officers of the express company here
and took n search-warrant for the
premises and a warrant for the arrest
of Price. When taken into custody
lie strongly avowed his innocence and |
told them boldly to go on with their
search, which they did with no success
until nearly through the cellar. when |
they found cigar box tucked away |
under the floor which contained some
thing over 81, 500. When Price learned |
that the money was found, he ac- |
the theft but claimed that |
he had an accomplice who was brought |
in, but was soon relieved from all sus-
picion by the full confession of Price.
who waived examination, and will be
1rraigned at the May term of the cir
cult court

ELECTION REPORTS.

Contrary to custom, the clerk of the
weather gave us one of the brightest
OF days for election, and our people
seemed glad to celebrate the demise of
March, the month of "six weeks win
ter" There was no unusual excite
ment, although n good deal of quiet
work was done, the chief struggle be-
ing over the Offices of Supervisor and
township clerk, though all passed with
the best of personal feeling. The Re-
publican ticket was elected entire with
the exception of one school inspector,
as will be seen by the report below, as
declared by the board at the close of
the polls. Eighty-four votes were cast,
as follows:
