Harness thieves made another success
full raid last Saturday night. This time
they struck Caldwell, commencing in the
city apparently.
They first cleared oft George Walker,
who lives in the western part of the city.
They didn't leave him even hitching
strap. His loss is fully $1,000.
The next victim was D. j. Baker,
prosperous farmer living about two miles
northwest OF the corporate limits. He had
to send to Caldwell Sunday morning for
a set OF harness before he could drive
to church. the thieves having made a
Clean sweep.
A mile west Of Bakers they made an
assault on John j. Stephenson's harness
and got set out Of the barn where his
dog got after them. The harness caught
on a wire fence and the thieves fed. So
far as we have heard this ended their
depredations for the night.
Sheriff J. r. Heskett went to Caldwell
this morning and will doubtless return
this evening with the thieves. as he usl-
ally does-not. There is no danger of his
following them, as he might have to pay
out fifteer cents without an absolute GER
tainty of getting a dollar back for ii.
