SOME time in November last, the
house of Henry Kasson, near ~Independ-
ence, la. was burglarized, while Mr.. Kas-
son and his wife were away, and prop
erty to the amount of two hundred
dollars taken. Two parties, who left
there, about that time. going east, were
suspected of doing the work, and the
City Marshal, of Independence, SEM a
description of them to Sheriff Lane. At
the close of the term of Office, this, with
other matters, was turned over to Sheriff
Rewey. In the meantime, the trail of
the suspected parties was struck in this
county, and onc of the two located. A
dispatch was sent TO Marshal Candy, of
Independence, and last week he put in
an appearance. He was taken in tow
by Deputy Richards, and they laid their
course for a point in Wyalusing oppo-
site Clayton, where Delarkis Kendrick,
alias Alex. Couch, alias Fred. Miller,
was rudely awakened from a refreshing
slumber, by Richards gentle voice, in
viting him to consider himself a pris-
oner. Miller ct al, first tried a gam of
bluff; but, finding it would not work,
picked up his few earthly possessions
and followed his captor. The party
then proceeded over to North McGregor.
where the second one of the precious
pair, known there as Albert Ward, was
captured, as he was about to commence
work in the round house. A short sea-
son of reflection convinced the thieves
that they were thoroughly trapped, and
they confessed their sins, acknowledged
the burglary, and were taken to INDIE
pendence, by Marshal Candy, where
they will plead guilty and take their
sentence. The goods were recovered
at Dubuque, some weeks ago.
