Deputy Sheriff r. j. Biorn returned
home Monday afternoon on the limit
ed with his prisoner, George Hunt.
rhe story is about like this. Hunt
was working for Herbert Church and
last Thursday evening he broke into
Alex McMillan's trunk and extracted
therefrom $55 in cash and S4OO in
notes. He then lit his lantern, and
went out to the barn, nothing being
thought of his actions. He then
walked to Hannaford and took the
train Friday morning went to San
born and from thence to Valley City
and from there into the country 20
miles northeast where the deputy
sheriff found him hiding in pig pen.
He was quickly arrested and confessed
to the robbery. Deputy Sheriff Biorn
handled the case we'll and traced him
without a break to where he was ar
rested. The prisoner was brought
back to Cooperstown on Monday.
Alex. Mcmillan who went along with
the deputy sheriff drove back over
land. Mr.. Biorn's team playing out
on him at Valley City after the hard
drive. The prisoner had spent quite
little of the cash but the notes we're
recovered. Justice Warner bound
him over to the district court Tuesday.

| Messrs. Bert Phipps and Geo.
Striuger took advantage of the excep-
tionally fine sleighing last Sunday
afternoon and went out for a ride be-
hind Miller Phipp's lively and very
gay drying horse. All went we'll for
a time until the horse came to the
conclusion that it was high time she
took a swifter gait, and without wait
lug for permission she carried the
notion in execution and lit out at a So
second gait. The boys tried hard to
hang on but it was no use and they
were unceremoniously dumped into
the soft and beautiful snow while the
horse kept going until she was caught
in town. This little affair happened
about mile and a half south of town
and it was very amusing to see them
hoof it into town carrying the robes
and other truck. Boys the girls won,
