discovered gang Of six men carrying
barrels Of whiskey out Of the West

were up to the workmen replied that
they were employed by man who
was down in the cellar.
Just then the man in question. r. T..
Southworth, the music teacher. made
his appearance at the head Of the cell
lar steps and told the officers that he
was responsible for the early morning
moving. The officers refused to allow
any more goods to be moved and kept
an eye on those that had been carted
to Mr.. Southworth's studio just across
the way, while Lieutenant Davis was
informed Of the proceedings. The lieu
tenant directed Mr.. Southworth to
cease operations.
An investigation Of the very unusual
proceedings disclosed the fact that the
proprietor, J. C. Vance, had taken a
midnight train for the north, and that
he would possibly not be back for some
time. Mr.. Southworth, who Is his
brother-in-law. was possessed of a bill

Festive Chicken Thief Again Busy.

A pack peddler named Isaac Petroskey,
living on South Washington avenue,
awoke yesterday morning to find every
chicken, duck and goose In his poultry
yard gone. The day went by without any
news of their whereabouts and he has by
this time made UP his mind that thieves
gave him a call during the night and left
him an empty coop as an evidence of their
visit. Petroskey was in the habit of going
about from house TO house with his pack
and trading his goods In several cases for
either duck a goose. or chicken; and
in this way he gathered up large colony
of the feathered tribe. The same night
raids were made on several hen roosts
along South Washington avenue. Petros-
key had about three or four dozen fowls
in his yard.
