WILLIS GIVEN THE LIE.
From the Dover State Sentinel.

From the Dover state SentlneI.
Mr.. Jonathan S. Willis statement
there were no Union Republicans in Mil
ford Neck, was very effectively branded
by the primary vote at Milford of a week
ago, where the Union Republicans cast
three times as many votes as were cast
in the entire county at the bolter prin.
aries. While Milford Neck is largely
Democratic it is congenial soil for tie
growth of a genuine brand of Union Re

issued by Samuel r. Church. Justice Of the
peace, and placed in his hands for execu-
ton. Justice Church alleged that in Octo-
Der last he placed in Gould's hands writ
of replevin authorizing him to take posses

delivering the animal to Landon.
A day or two later it was found the bond
given for the replevin of the horse was in
sufficient, and Landon was notified, and
given three days in which to file an ade-
Quate bond. Not doing so, Justice Church
issued another writ authorizing Gould to
again take possession of the horse and re-
turn him to Salter. This writ. the justice
alleged, Gould refused to execute.
In reply the constable claimed that JUS
tice Church had no authority to issue the
second writ, and declared that If he exc
cutcd it his bondsmen would have been
liable for any damage the plaintiff Landon
might have sustained. The constable also
claimed that the first writ was properly
issued and executed. because the bond au-
thoriztng it was proper and had been &C.
cepted as sufficient
Chief Justice Bingham and Justices Cole,
Clabaugh and Barnard considered the case.

DOuDt over Identity OF Man Who HOD.
bed Hotel Guests.
The police department Is IN a quandary
over the identity of the hotel sneak who
robbed the rooms of Representative Robert
son and others at Wizards Hotel, the Sth
OF this month. Soon after the robberies
were committed a picture of RED Heyr'
was recognized as the likeness of the man
who registered al Wizards as c. l.. Doug
lass OF Tombstone, Ariz., and for whom the
police were looking. Later, as published in
The Star. Mr.. w. P. Barnhart, clerk at
Wizards Hotel. went to Pittsburg with
Detective Helan and identified Mick
Moran. alias Campbell, as c. l.. Douglass.
A writ of habeas corpus, made returnabe
Pittsburg and Moran Will in all probability
be released.
Since the Identification the police depart
ment has received informal ton that Moran
could not possibly have been in this city
the day the Willard Hotel robberies were
committed. This Information was received
from the Cincinnati authorities. Moran
was arrested there the 9th of the month
and was held in custody two days. On
the morning of the Sth of the month he
paid a fine and was discharged from GUS
tody. This incident was closed about II
o'clock in the day.
In view of these facts and of what has
transpired the local police think the re-
covery of some Of the stolen property will
be necessary to get a conviction in the
event of the capture of the thief who ac-
ITALY committed the robberies at the hotel.

The question of repairs is an important
one to horse owners, whether the team is
kept for pleasure business or convenience
1t is weil-known fact that this item about
doubles the cost of a harness during its
life.
Mr.. Conrad Becker, the well-known dealer
in horse equipment, meets this question in a
new and practical way. with the new
Thompson bifurcated riveted harness.
Where stitches were used in the ordinary
harness. a new patented bifurcated rivet
is used in this harness. Ripping is
impossible. the cost of repairs nil. Har-
nesses of this make in steady use for three
years have required no repairing. The
ability of these rivets to resist wear and
tear is obvious. The rivets of the lighter
harnesses are covered with black celluloid
under heat and pressure, and, without af-
fecting the weight materially, beautify and
strengthen the harness.
