against him.

xioll of the police on Saturday. when the
complainant appeared at Headquarters
with the startling information that her
a.ouse had been entered during her abb
selcc that day and all her furniture.
chairs, tables. beds. stoves, pictures, and
ever an organ had been removed and
Hearted away. The detectives made an in
restiEation and soon had Buchanan un-
der suspicion. They learned that a col
ored man had driven up to the house with
a wagon, hod loaded the household goods
into it and had calmly driven away with
them Those who witnessed the per-
Torrance thought the occupant of the
house was moving and paid no further at
ton tc what was going on.
The furniture was located IN the estab-
1slament of local secondhand dealer,

had sold it was obtained. Buchanan's
arrest soon followed. Although the or
