MAY Be SENT TO PEN.
New Law Makes Chicken Stealing
Serious Offense.

The case of State VS.. George John,
son, charged by Chas. Switzer, OF
Harrison township, with chicken steal
ing was brought up before Justice
Prichett Friday afternoon. SevgrSr
witnesses were examined and the de-
PENDANT was held to the grand jury.
Bond was fixed at 81, 10000 and in de-
fault of same the defendant was re-
committed to Jail. This case will be
watched with considerable interest,
as it is the first to be brought in the
county since the old misdemeanor of
chicken stealing was made a felony,
punishable by two-year term in the
penitentiary. The change Of the law
went into effect July 4. The felony
is designated as the larceny of chick
ems from an enclosure in the night
time The defendant in this case, It
is charged, has done all this. 1t
looks like a test case or the new law.
The man was seen coming out Of the
hen house by the owner, Cnas. Swift
ger. The thief got to his buggy and
was off down the road before Switzer
could do anything. The rural tele-
phone was soon brought into use, how
ever, and the man was corraled, He
had thrown the chickens away when
caught, but Switzer identified him as
the man seen by him, and when
caught there was ample evidence to
show that he had had chicken coops
about him.
Mrs. Nellie Johnson, wife of the
above defendant, filed an information
in Prichett's court against Bert Pick
EFT, charging him with larceny, the
taking of an umbrella from the Rock
Island station. The case was heard
today by Justice Prichett.
aas
The case OF the men, George Prem
tiss and James Corey, who were ar
rested by Constable Andrews, charg.
ed with street gambling and brought
into Justice Prichett's court, took a
change of venue to Justice Kendig.
The evidence against the two men
was considered sufficient to hold
them to the grand jury. The bond
for appearance was placed at 5000,
which was furnished and the men re-
leased.
The crowds of people in attendance
at the Parker Carnival are about as
orderly and well behaved as any that
have ever been gathered in the city
on an occasion like this. The police
officers made only two arrests yester-
day and these were for intoxication.
No complaints whatever are heard
from the carnival crew. The drunks
were taken before Justice Kendig and
the punishment was made to At the
crime.
