YANKED RIGHT TO JAIL
Three Sets of Double Harness, the Prop
erty of Mr.. Johnson. Also Found
Hidden in the Hay-Stickler
and Blakeiey Arrested.

Under Sheriff Murphy ard Deputy
Sheriff O'Neil went out to Park canyon
yesterday afternoon on search Tor
some stolen property. and found 1t in
the possession of J. c. Stickler and
Charles Blakeley. Both men were
brought to town and locked up in the
county Jail under charge of grand
larceny. Stickler is a wood hauler. He
lives on the side of Park canyon.
Blakeley who has been his associate,
is the son of j. NJ. Blakeley, con-
tractor of South Butte. Some time ago
William j. Johnson. of the firm of
Johnsor & Borthwick. lost three sets of
double harness, of which he could get
NO trace. On Thursday night his barn
was again burglarized and about %
sacks of oats taken out. The matter
was reported to the sheriff yesterday
morning. and Mr.. Murphy and Mr..
O'Neil started an investigation. They
soon found a trail which led them out
to Park canyon and to the cabin occu-
pied by SticlSler and Blakeley. The
officers searched the barn and found
more than 20 sacks of oats and under
the hay in the loft also discovered the
long missing sets of harness.
Stickler was questioned about the
matter and said he had purchased the
harness from a man who came through
the park some time ago, and that he
had bought the oats from a dealer of
South Butte named Little. Mr.. Murphy
placed Stickler and Flakeley under ar
rest and Deputy Sheriff O'Neil brought
them to town about o'clock yesterday
afternoon. Mr.. Murphy returning later
with the stolen property. Upon his ar
rival in town Mr.. Murphy went To
South Butte and made inquiries of the
man Little. and learned from him that
neither Stickler nor Blakeley had pur-
chased any oats from him lately.
Young Blakeleys father retained At
torney w. f. Carroll to represent the
young man. and his release on bail was
secured last evening. The warrant on
which the men We're arrested was
issued from Justice Traps court.

the diminution is all under the head
