 The capture of James acd. Ncftz { is ore Of rh best pieces of work that has ever been done by officers of this territory. Ever since the time when the crime was committed, City Mar sha, Mullen. the rangers, the sher- .f's ct5ce and every constable and c4cer :r this part Of the territory have worked hard On the case. and ,@e capture CT ,vofJz and James. isi taeT prove ID be the right men will bring -o those who effected, the cap tu-e the honor of the shrevtest piecc { of detective work that has beer done hereabouts

 A shor, time before this Noftz swore to a complaint charging ore. Of the inmates Of the Cora Niles house with the theft of much money ana valuables.

 The killing Of Milless, ard the m successful attempt to obtain money at the point of guns is fresh in the minds of all Who were ir Bisbes at the time.
