kind OF work. stole an overcoat from the
front of a. Metz's clothing store. They
were observed by citizen, who Informed
Mr.. Metz. Marshal Fleming was notified
and 10 about twenty minutes efterward
the thieves who gave the names of Chas.
E. Boyle and Chas. Edwards, were ar
rested at the Missouri Pacific depot
where they tried to sell their ill
gotten property. In the afternoon they
were brought before Justice Fletcher,
where they pleaded guilty, and each re-
ceived sentence to pay $5 and costs with
sixty days additional In jail.
The rapidity with which they were
traced down, arrested, tried, sentenced
and incarcerated doubtless surprised the
bold scoundrels, but 1t will please the
citizens who have been annoyed hereto
fore by just such vagabonds.

their hands and anything that was In

A tug pulled the big ship out into the
stream. The SlethOdisls Immediately
