talking to Fleck, but even when the
latter came up and wrung his hand,
called him by name, asked after the

thought nothing Of the conversation
held under his nose. Fleck then gave
Finch the story about the machinery,

Horse Thief Captured.

Two or three days ago, the RECISrEI
noted that "a thief had broken open the
stable of KaSley Il Brooks, in the
Eighth ward. and stolen horse and a
piano-box buggy. At first it was thought
by the police the animal and rig had
been taken over into Washington county,
but this proved 10 be a false trail, and
nothing more was heard of the matter
fer q day or two, when Information came
from Cameron that a horse answering
the description Of the one taken had
been seen there. Yesterday a Cameron
officer arrived over the Il. X o. with
Robert Emmit. and the prisoner was
taken before Justice Davis, who com
mitted him TO Jail, in default
Of $1,000 bail, for hearing
Saturday. the 10th, at p. m. Emmli
had the stolen horse and buggy in his
possession when arrested, and he told a
very queer story about it. Emmit. who
worked for KaSley Il Brooks at enc
time. said he was in MOundSville the
dav the horse was stolen, but the next
dav he met a fellow there who had the
horse. and the two drove around town
together. Then the fellow turned the
horse aud rig over 10 him, and he drove
ont 20 Cameron. He could not explain
how a stranger happened to put him IN
possession OF the horse and buggy, on
their first meeting, and altogether the
story was stamped rs very transparent.

MheelInc Mnn In Dnkotn PolItIcs.

Mr.. J. NJ. Devine, formerly of Wheeling,
is just now having stirring time in North
Dakota politics. At a Republican conven-
ton in Grand Forks last week Mr.. Devlne
and two other geutlemenwerep placed in nom
nation for the position OF State Superin-
tendent of Public instruction At the con,
clusion of the count of votes it was found
that Mr. Deyine had received l'S
votes. majority over the other TWO
candidates. II was then suddenly
learned by the friends OF one Of the other
candidates that Mr.. Deviue was a Catho-
lie. and the friends succeeded in changing
enough votes to finally give the nomination
to another candidate. As a matter Of fact,
however, Mr. Devine was reared in the
strict Calvinism faith of the United Pres
byteran church And this religious feeling
is creating "A great stir in the northwest.
Mr. Devine is highly spoken of a. gentle
man and Il scholar by the press of that sec
ton, and whether Catholic, Presbyterian,
Baptist. or of any other denomination, the
papers believe he should have had the
place.
