cial. Sheriff Hamilton arrived in town
late last night from Kibbey. a small town
fifty miles from here, bringing three men
who are accused of stealing cattle. They
were examined before Judge Lee and
bound over TO the district court in bonds
of 81. coo each. None were able to furnish
the required amount, SO they will have 10
ianguish in jail until the next term of
court. Their names are Robert and Oscar
English, and Leslie Watson. All are
ranchmen living near Kibbey, and il is
claimed they have been carrying on opera
tions in that vicinity for some time.
They had become bold OF late. They
would go out on q range. and selecting the
most suitable cattle drive them into q cor
raj and slaughter them in broad daylight.
Charles Catcher caught them in the act Of
killing one of his choicest steers a few
days ago, and at once filed information
against them. From papers found On Les
