isearding the Zion in His Den.

During tho last weeks Court thief
stole the Judges hat and umbrella from
tie Court room, and when Court ad-
journed for dinner his Honor found it
necessary to send out and purchase hat
before he could leave tho Court room
After dinner, mt the suggestion Of the
Sheriff, his Honor hung the new hat in
tho same place, while Deputy Sheriff
Rose kept watch on it. Before the Judge
could call the Court to order the thief ac-
cidantly lifted the hat from its moorings
and started Off and the next minute he
was In tho strong grasp of Deputy Sheriff
Rose and Immediately piloted to the
look up.
1t is reported that tne thief was an i'm
portant witness In one Of the pending
cases. He evidently expected to gain
considerable notoriety, as we'll as good
hat, by "bearding the lion in his den, the
Douglas In his hall"
His Honor's hard fortune did not stop
at this incident. On Friday, while out
driving with Hon. Jno. Z. Breazeale, the
horse took fright and both his Honor and
Mr.. Breazeale were thrown out and con-
siderably bruised.

BOY DEsPERAD0s
Eight and Fen But They Hold
Posse of Men at Bay.

CHERRY CREEK, N. Y, Sept. 10, 1897.
Two boys, not yet in their teens, defled
a posse of men yesterday at the point of
revolvers and after firing several shots,
escaped to the woods. An effort to dis
lodge them was futile.
The lads are George and Rich Ander-
son, 8 and 10 years old, who ran away
from home two months ago because their
father whipped them for disobedience.
They have been with a band of robbers
who have infested this part of the coun-
ty. The ringleader, Benjamin Brennan,
was caught recently and confessed. He
said that the Anderson boys were with
the gang and were well supplied with
money and arms. They had $3S between
them and also revolvers and plenty of
cartridges.
Charles Nelson captured the younger of
the boys yesterday after a chase. The
older brother pulled his. revolver, cover
ing his man, commanded him to release
his hold. Nelson did SO, and the
two boys went away together.
Nelson reported his experience to the
neighbors and Jackson Harrington, Ed
Paine and Peter McCloud followed the
young h~ighwaymen. They chased them
had run far enough to suit them, they
turned, fired five shots at their pursuers
and took to- the woods and are still at
large,
