Theft and his father, Charles Theft. have
been arrested by Sheriff Freye of Wa
baunsO county, on the charge of murder
ing William Smale. the farmer who was
shot at his home northwest Of here on
Monday night.
The murder has called to mind that at
least two other members Of the SmaIe
family have died under suspicious Cir
cumstances. and the officers profess to
believe that thorough Investigation will
disclose plot against the members of the
family il Is probable that the body of q
young daughter who died last summer
may be cXhumed and the stomach an
dlyZed for traces Of poison. The child S
death was attributed TO hydroph0bia but
at the time there was "a strong suspicion
that she had been poisoned. Several years
ago the eldest son died suddenly while the
father was absent from home.
