Two Horses Stolen.

O. G. Mathews of near Rothville
came TO KeytesviIIe Mouday and
swore out a warrant before Justice
VIM. P. Jared for the arrest of J. R.
Mcclure, charging Mcclure with
stealing a horse from the afiant the
night of July 80. Mcclure halls from
near St. Lonis aud had been working
for man named Long, who is
nelghbor of Mathews. Mcclure dis
appeared about the time Mathews
horse was stolen and he feels conf
dent that Mcclure is the thief.
Depury Sheriff L. A. Embree has gone
in search of Mcclure, but had not re-
turned up to the time the COURIER
goes to press.
Dick Flnnell, respectable colored
citizen living near Namrash, in Mis-
souri, township, is victim of misplaced
confidence and is now minus an s.
year.old bay saddle horse aud sad
die and bride. Finnell has been run
ming a threshing machine and while
threshing at F. w. Meyers. near Dal-
ton, the early part of last week he en-
ployed a strange man, who gave his
name as George Brown and said he
lived near Malta Bend, Saline county,
to make some repairs to the machine
Brown did good job of it and was
afterward employed by Finnell to take
charge of the threshing crew. Brown
claimed to be a detective and told
Flnneil that he BROWN only wanted
to make enough to cover expenses
while looking for some crooks who
had robbed store at Kansas City
Brown proved to be good worker
with the machine gang and also
worked Finnell He collected some
money from VIM. Remmert for thresh-
ing and on his return from Remmert's
he met FInnelI and borrowed his horse
to ride to Cazzell for the purpose of
getting some money he claimed to
have left with R. P Leach. merchant
at that place. This was the last that
Finnell saw of Brown, but was in
formed by some movers that they met
him up near Brunswick riding a
horse that answered the description of
the animal FinneIl had loaned"
Brown. Nathaniel Glasgow says he
knows Brown and that he went by the
name of Harry Brown at Malta Bend.
FlnnelI bought blind pony, saddle
and bride from Brown. which the
purchaser subsequently, sold to a negro
woman for SO and got to retain the
saddle and bride. FinnelI now
believes that the pony was stolen by
Brown. FinneIl has not obtained any
clue to his missing equine nor does
he know anything about the present
haunts of the man who borrower

Munson was dismissed when it came
up for trial in Justice VIM. P. Jared's
court last Friday. The defendant
hives near McGlnnis' bridge and was
charged with stealing an old violin
from Thos. Woodbridge. Prosecuting
Attorney Collet did not think the evi-
dence against Munson was strong
enough to convict, hence refused to
prosecute him.

Fred Witherspoon. an IS-year-oId
youth of Moberly, of $4s at a point
between Keytesville and Dalton while
the two parties were in the caboose of
a freight train en- route from Kansas
City to Moberly the night of the 10Th
of flast month, was held in the the sum
of 81 900 at his preliminary trial in
Justice VIM. P. Jared's court at Key
tesyille last Friday. The prisoner
could not furnish the required bail,
and was returned to Jail until the
grand jury can investigate his case.

Dan Fuller of Marcellne had pre-
liminary trial in Justice VIM. P. Jared's
court at Keytesville last Friday for
attempting to bribe Fred Witherspoon,
the prosecuting witness IN the case of
the state against Will Graham for
robbing Witherspoon of $4S in
caboose of Wabash freight train,
not to appear against Graham.
From the testimony adduced the court
believed Fuller to be guilty as charged
in the information and bound him
over in the sum of 81, 900 to appear
before the next grand jury. Fuller
could not give the required bond and
was sent to jail.

Martin Rafferty, of near McGinnis'
bridge was arraigned in Justice Wrp.
P. Jared's court last Friday to render
an accounting for his fracture of the
peace and dignity of the state by sell
ing pistol to Ed Munson, a minor.
Rafferty, entered plea of guilty and
was fined $50, but was gwen stay
of execution as to the fine provided
he would pay the costs. 1t is said
that this clemency was extended to
Rafferty, because the warrant issued
for his arrest was due largely to spite
work on the part of the prosecuting
witness rather than a desire to pro-
mote good citizenship.

ALAR MED
By Situation In the
Twentieth District.


Chairman Dick does not attempt to
hide his alarm over the turn affairs
have taken in the Twentieth district,
says the Columbus Citizen. He visited
the district Monday and had talk
with king" Beidler' of Lake coun-
ty, who is running as the Republican
candidate for Congress. Dick does not
appear to have much faith in what
Beidler says of the situation. "a can.
didate, even If he is alarmed over the
situation, will not say So" said Chair
man Dick
Il did not ask about the effort which
| see by the papers is being made to
Keep Phillips name off the ballot"
said he, "but do not think that 1t will
succeed. If he has 5000 signatures to
his petition, and I am told that he
has, l do not know of any legal way
to keep his name off the ticket"
"Are the 5000 signatures those of
Republicans?" he was asked.
''That I do not know" said he. 81
have not examined the list However,
If they are Republicans the situation
is a very dangerous one"

John G. Held. republican national com> mitteeman for Alaska, is in Skagwav, and emphaticalv contradicts the Skagwav del egation as to the occurrences at the Juneau republican convention. While he admits the convention endorsed John G.

He further said that MT. Price will be showed under completely in the next republi can convention, and claims that he will have a hand in shoveling the snow.
