Joseph Koenig Nabsi "a Nocturnal aFarau-
der Upon his Premises and the sheriff
Takes M'm to Jai.
About enc o'clock this morning Joseph
Koenlg, living on west Third street,
was aroused by his wife, who had been
awakened by the furious barking Of the
family dog, which is kept in the saloon
below the family rooms. Mr.. Koenig
supposed the dog was barking at other
dogs on the outside and he opened q
front window and emptIed some water
on the side walk. He heard footsteps on
the sidewalk end, surprising the trouble
to be at an end. laid down again. His
dog, however. kept up the noise, and
Mr.. Koenig was finally led to inyesti-
gate. He bade his wife take the lamp,
and they descended the back stairs, and
entered the saloon through the rear
door. which was kept looked. The
lamp cast its rays into the front end OF
the store, and there, standing nearly
against the front window shades, was q
man, grim and terrible in she gloom
Mr.. KoeniR, returned to the upper story,
after locking the back door, and arous
ing his brother and q friend who is
visiting him, handed one of them q
\ double barrelled shot gun and the othel
the lamp. He also awakened Mr.
Fiefar, his neighbor, who %unsheathee
his revolver and the force returne,
to the saloon. Sheriff Kincel had beef
sent for in the meantime. Koenig an.
the others entered the saloon from the
rear, and the man holding the lamp wa
stationed where the room would b
lighted in every ome The armed
men leveled their weapons on th,
burglar. and be was effectively in
Inundated. Twice he made movement
toward q heavy iron poker under tht
stove, but was threatened with instant
perforst1on, and failed to reach the poker
When Kincel arrived he found thu
burglar thus carnered and promptly
escorted him to the county isil. Their,
he was searched and a bunch OF keys
some money and o few trinkets wert
found. He was recognized by MIR. Kin
Gel as q man named Mr.. Daniels, WHIT
boarded with the sheriff n Yankto,
some fifteen years ago. He is in jail TO
the present.
1t is supposed the captured burgla
had a confederate on the outside Of tb'
building, all the doors having besl
found locked, and all the windows bar
red and latohed securely. The confedel
ate probably had keys to ft the from
door, and after admitting the captures
man relocked the door and waited o
the outside for his partner to hand on
the spoiIs. McDaniels is o mediur
sized man OF sandy complexion, an
altogether very innocent looking.

One Of the cases which will come up
for the consideration OF the United
States grand jury at this term of court,
will be q case OF timber trespass against
three or four Charles Mix county men.
In a letter recently received by q Yank-
ton attorney from one of the interested
parties the case as presented calls forth
the sympathy of the public. During
the coolest week of last winter these
men, finding their fuel supply exhausted,
purchased Of one jack Selley, some wood
and went to Selley's island IN the Mis-
sour TO get the wood. While there al
work, they we're taken prisoners by In
dian police, who took them to Brnle
agency, where they we're turned oyer to
the authorities at Chamberlain, who
| bound them over to await the action Of
the grand Jury. These men had families
at home end IN being taken to Chamber
lain they left their wives and children
without q particle of fuel. Consider
able suffering resulted and more vii
follow, il the cases are pushed, as the,
are poor men.
