tuuatelv got himself into trouble by
transaction which occurred here on Sat
urdav night last. He came over from
Milford on the train due here at SIS p.
IN and ur fortunately missed the 6.25 p.
m train ing to Milford He went to
the liverjes ard inquired the prices for
teams. but it seems as II they were very
hiph in their prices which he objected to-
The Deople Of our town do not believe
mat Mr.. Belts wilfully intended any
wrong. He las the sympathy OF our peo-
nle II is an unfortunate occurrence Tor
Mr Betts. He claims that he was in
vited bv party to take a ride, and the
chances are that it was a tramp who oc
cunied the seat, and Mr.. Belts being uu--
awares WHO it was anu being anxious to
oct home. accepted the invitation at once
THE team was recovered and returnedi the
horse beiug found at shawnee, ousSS@
