posed Of band Of 900 one and

Wednesday evening Sheriff Tenn
pleton arrested Julius Alexander, a
genus hobo, who was among arriv-
ais on that day, upon suspicion
that he was implicated in the rob-
berry Of Woodson Hodges residence

revealed the gold watch that was
among the plunder secured by the
thieves and confirmed the officer in
his belief that he had secured the
right man. Alexander was ar
raigned before Justice Hosford,
where he waived examination and
was held to answer at the next term
Of the district court in the sum Of
81, 900. IN default he was commit
ted to the county Jail.

company, tried in the district court
this week, involved title to one of
the most promising properties in
the Boulder district. It was an ac-
tion brought to recover possession
of the Hidden Treasure mine upon
claim Of prior location by plaintiffs,
the property having been originally
known as the Paynlaster lode.
From the evidence it appeared that
this location Of the Paymaster had
been permitted to lapse and the
property was regularly located as
the Hidden Treasure and afterWard |
disposed Of to the company now
operating it. This was evidently
the conclusion reached by the jury
and verdict was rendered for de-
PENDANTS.
