A MANIA WITH POOLE.
Chicken Stealing Carried On as a
Regular Avocation.
POLICEMEN CHASING HIN TODAY.

Discovered by Farmers Last Night
Who Follow Him Until He AbandOns
His Wagon and Escapes to the
Woods.
The officers are searching the woods
north of Topeka today for A. F. Poole,
the notorious chicken thief. Officer
Gaines the feetest man on the force and
Deputy Sheriff Dan Jones are after him
with the chances in their favor
Poole was on foraging expedition
among the farmers north of Topeka last
night. He has covered wagon and a
good team. Poole stopped at several
farms and had more than 100 fowls of
different color, sex and breed. At About
4 o'clock this morning Will Bigger, who
works on Fred Dauber's farm seven
miles north of the city, was awakened by
disturbance in his hen-roost An invest
igation showed that it was Poole. He had
stolen several dozen chickens. When
found Poole was in the corn crib helping
himself to feed for the horses and chick
ems. Bigger at once alarmed the neigh
borhoOd. Poole jumped into his wagon
and set out for Topeka at rapid pace.
Several farmers were soon in pursuit on
fresh horses When three miles north
of Topeka one of Poole's horses STUN bled
and fell. Poole realized that the per
suing party were close upon him. He
left his horses and wagon and took to
the woods. Within two minutes the
pursuers arrived at the spot. a part of
the puIsuers went after Poole and the
rest came to Topeka to notify the officers.
His team was driven to Topeka and left
in the yard of the city prison.
The officers are searching the woods
north of town. 1t is doubtful if Poole
can long evade the officers.
An examination of Poole's wagon
showed that the bed of the wagon was
covered with stats, and the space
underneath was as full of chickens as it
could be packed There were about 100
chickens, which were turned loose in a
vacant room in the basement of the city
prison. Poole's coat was in the wagon.
| The horses aud the wagon were covered
with dust and mud, and the animals ap-
peared to be completely fatigued with
their long chase.
There is no doubt in this case of Poole's
| guilt. He had a similar experience
several months ago with a party of
Granville farmers, but it was impossible
to prove anything against him. Poole's
business appears to be wholly chicken
stealing. He does it on a large scale
and his wagon is fitted up for the pur-
pose. The officers have been aware of
his operations for long time but have
been unable to catch him at it Poole
had desperate encounter with party
of deputy sheriffs in Topeka several
years ago when they undertook to arrest
| him on the same charge.
