The supposed horse thief arrested
by Constable Walden Friday evening
turned out to be John Medling,
farm hand, working for a stock man,
six miles northeast of TT. Scott, Kan
sas. The suspicious of the officers
which lead to the arrest OF the young
man were well grounded. Medling,
who was poorly dressed, rode into
Butler on the above day on very
fine animal, stopping in front of BEN
nett Wheeler store he asked the con-
stable who was standing on the side
walk to buy him a piece OF tobacco.
The officer did as requested and then
put a few questions to the young
man as to where he lived and where
he was going. The answer was eva
sive and the general manner of Med
ling aroused suspicion that he was
not all right. So the constable pro-
ceeded to get a warrant and went af
ter the young man who started north.
Medling was overtaken near the farm
residence of Elmer Thompson, Just
north of the city limits. He was
walking and leading his horse. TIE
officer commanded him to surrender,
but instead he let his horse go and
ran. He was so badly scared he ran
into Mr.. Thompson's house scream
ing at the top OF his voice, Tom,

back to town and put him in jail.
