ONE ON OUR MARSHAL.

After, From the Thief.

The Columbus police officials be.
lieve they have good joke on the
marshal of Logan. Several days ago
a horse and buggy were stolen from
Henry Schaeffer, of this city, and a
description of it sent broadcast over
the country, one of the cards going
to the marshal at Logan.
Two farmers captured the buggy
in the possession of Joseph Carrier

the buggy and Carrier to this city.
Carrier was presented in police court
yesterday morning and waived ex-
animation aud was held to the grand
jury.
Last night Captain Russell re-
ceived telephone message from the
Mayor of Logan informing him that
the stolen horse was in possession of
the marshal of that city and that he
had purchased it from Carrier while
he had the description of the horse
and supposed thief in his pock It.

Jura-Trias company has two very IA
vorable mills sites on the banks of
Senorita Creek. The company also
has 90 claims with copper showing on

tons of ore or the dump ready to be
taken to the mill.

in the finest of pine timber, which
can be used for mining purposes. The
climate is such, that the mines can
be worked the year round with no

large company of eastern capitalists
had obtained possession of copper
claims in Arizona and on talking
with their attorney discovered that
the same geological construction of

He thought that to become an actor
It was only necessary to do some start

that prize fighter had become an
actor; that a man who jumped from
the Brooklyn bridge had no difficulty
In obtaining theatrical engagement.
From these premises, Easel argued,
through some extraordinary train of
reasoning, that freak" performance
was the best and most direct road to
the stage, and he cast about for de-
sirable attraction"
In his boyhood he had frightened his
mother by swallowing big peach stones.
In spite of the dire things predicted
for him, he had never suffered incon-

decided that he would make bid for
theatrical fame by becoming a human
ostrich. a swallower of glass, nails, pins
and old iron.
