CLEVERLY CAPTURED. Another Gang of Horse Thieves
 Rounded Up.


 Ernest Gentry, who was arrested last week charged by complaint of Navajo Indian with stealing some fifteen pO- nies rom the latter, near Navajo Springs. Arizona, was given prelimin- ary examination last Thursday before Justice Craig. After hearing the evil dence, the justice bound Gentry over i'll the sum of $500 10 await the action of the next grand jury. In default of bail, he was remanded to the custody of the sheriff.
 Shortly after the adjournment of the court, Sheriff Scott rode into town, bringing with him the accomplice of Gentry, Art Farrell. As it was then 6 o'clock in the evening. the preliminary examination of the last-named party was postponed until the following morning. At 9 o'clock promptly, Art Farrell was brought before his honor, and expeditiously bound over in the sum of $500. Bail not being forthcom- ing, he was remanded to the county bastile, to keep company with his part ner. And thus ends the first chapter in the criminal career of these young men.
 The evidence developed at the exam ination was very damaging for defend ants. John F. McC arroll, of Navajo Springs, related to the court how he followed, with the Indian owners of the stolen stock, the trail of the thieves from start to finish, through all it's de- vlous turnings; how eventually he came to Luna Valley, x. M.; how in that valley he began to locate horse here at this ranch. several more at some other ranch, until he and his Indian companions had gathered in all fifteen head. In each and every case, the hold CTS of the stock acknowledged having bought them of Gentry and Farrell, but after learning the facts. these peo- pie unhesitatingly surrendered them to their owners. MT. McCarrell is loud in his praises of the good people of Luna Valley, that they accorded him every assistance, and their horses were kindly loaued him while his own vera fed and rested. Their hospitality was un- bounded, and such, Mir. McCarrell says as he has not experienced since he left his old Texas home.
 Too much praise cannot be gran ted the last named gentleman for his efforts in trailing and running to earth this crime. What he has done in this behalf has been at his private expense. and as 8 stock owner himself and he modestly considers he has simply done his duty, and no more than any other stockman of the county would do under like cir cumstaDces.
 Before closing this article, it is proper to state that throughout this entire matter, Sheriff Scott and Mir. McCarrell have worked tremendously and in con- junction, and their separation one tracing the property, and the other the culprits-wss the result of preconcerted action.

Hoods SarsaparilIa has achieved great success in warding off sickness which, if allowed to progress. would have un- dermined the whole system and given disease strong foothold to cause much suffering and even threaten death. Hoods SarsapariIla has done all this and even more. It has been taken in thousands of cases which were thought to be incurable, and after a fair trial has effected wonderful cures, bringing health, strength and joy to the afflicted. Another important point about Hood s Sarsaparilla is that it's cures are perma- nent because they start from the solid foundation of purified, vitalized aud enriched blood.
