JOHN B, GRAHAMs RIG,
It Was Found at MOberly, but the
Men Who Hired It Were Not
Secured.


The city authorities at Mexico teie-
phoned Chief QuayIe yesterday morn
ing to be on the lookout for a young
man giving his name al j. A. Thomp-
son, who was headed this way with q
horse and buggy belonging to q Mex
leo Hveryman. A visit to John Ha-
worth's livery stable revealed the
fact that the man wanted had pre-
cedsd the message to Moberly and
had left the horse and vehicle at Mr..
Haworth's. A thorough search OF the
city failed to locate the man wanted.
He had been working In Mexico, sell
ing life-sized portraits, and is describ-
ed as q young man about 5 feet 8
inches tall, weighing 100 pounds,
Hght-oomplexioned, smooth ehaven,
wearing q light suit of clothes. The
superstition is that on reaching Mo-
berry he became alarmed about get
ting safely away with bis steal and
took the first train for parts unknown,
leaving the horse and buggy behind.
The Constable from Mexico came up
this afternoon and took the horse and
vehicle back home.
