Held for Grand dsLsrcalny:

Two strangers, giving their names
as Thomas Martin and John Shy were
arrested last Friday evening on a
charge of grand larceny in the second
degree. They were Brought up before
Justice Bitterness Saturday afternoon.
Il appeared from the evidence that on
Friday evening j. !. Ekander, the
tailor, had finished q pair. of pants
and vest for Capt. Rice, while A. C.
Rasmussen was JUST finishing the
coat. Ekander laidszthe pants and
vest on a table in the front room of
the shop and told Rasmussen to put
them with the coat in case to be
brought in by Rice. Ekander then
left the shop. Soon after the defend.
ants came in and asked zRasmusson
for some buttons. He told them to
wait moment. Martin was standing
in the door between the two rooms and
Shy was walking about in the front
room. Before Rasmussen was ready
to get the buttons Shy walked out.
Gus Weizinger, another employe in
the shop became suspicious and went
out after him, but returned without &C.
costing him. Martin then walked out,
and Weizinger told RASMUSSEN they
had better look if anything was mis-
sing. They found that the pants and
vest we're gone. It is supposed that
Shy sneaked them under an overcoat
heswas carrying on his arm. Mar
shall Sorenson was notified and ar
rested the men soon after, but found
no trace of the missing garments.
The justice decided that there was not
sufficient evidence to hold Martin as
an accessory before the fact, and he
was therefore released. Shy was
bound over to await tie action of the
grand jury, and was required to fur
nish $3.50 bail. Being: unable to Sc
cure bail he was committed to the vjgi-
liant care of the sheriff
The stolen articles were found
Saturday morning by Joe Neuberger
near a telegraph pole west of the pass
enger depot. 5
Dannie Daffey, 'pal'' of the pris-
toner's, was arrested Saturday FORE
noon for passing bottle of whiskey
to the prisoners in the Jail. In the
evening he and Martin. were released
and told to make themselves scarce in
this vicinity. They obeyed the order
and struck out for other pastures.

The Use OF Grease.

Many thousand chickens are de.
stroyod each year by the too profuse
Use OF grease. We have seen grease
and coal oil or kerosene smeared all
over the heads and bodies OF small
chicks to kill the lice. Again. We have
seen the hens feathers covered with oil
10 kill the lice, and when she covers
the chicks she paints them full ot thc
oil, much 10 their injury. How wonld
you feel II smeared all over with oil
and turned loose. so 10 run with no re
lief for days? oil is not ft TO put on
the hen 10 kill the lice: IL is only good
20 put on the head To kill the head lice
and very little only should hc used for
this.
When you must grease their heads
use either melted lard or sweet OIL
Paint IL on with either n small. stir
brush or your finger; only pat on
enough 10 grease the head wen. and no
more. If your hens are infested with
lice use insect powder on them. the
kind you buy at the drug store by the
pound. Don't use oil on then. for II
is not good for them nor the cLicIs.-
The Feather.
