A REVENGEFUL ITALIAN.
For Supposed Insult, Ties Boy on
Horse and Turns Animal Loose.

Richfield, March 22.-One of the most
contemplate outrages was committed last
saturday upon an 1-year-old boy of
Haden POff of VeTmilion by an Italian
who was travelling through the country.
The boy was out riding a horse, and
when about a couple of miles from Yer
million met the Italian who stopped the
little fellow and began To talk TO him,
and when 4 few words had passed be-
tween him and the boy, the Italian took
and bound his~bands TO the saddle with
the 'front.' tic straps, and them binding
him backward across the back of the
saddle, tieing him down by the tie straps
Denind the Sad dle seat. bringing them up
around his neck. After doin- this he
slipped che bride off and turned the
horse loose to go where it pleased.
But good fortune was surely with the
little fellow. The horse went straight
nome at slow walk, and the boys try
ing position was at once discovered by
hiS parents. y large space of skin was
rubbed from his back where the little
seat OF the saddle. His neck was cut
quite badly from the strings that were
around it. Had the horse became fright L
ened II would surely have killed him. As
II was he was nearly strangulated from
the position he had been placed in
An alarm was given and "a large posse
OF men from Nermilion went out in search
of the brute. but their search proved I'M
successful Information was sent to Rich
field to the officers of the law and they
Immediately began search for the wretch.
Word has been sent to all the surround
ing towns and counties to be on the look
out FOR him. If caught he Will be broug hit
back tn face the law. The only reason
that can be supposed to have caused him
to commit such an outrage upon the boy
is that he called at the home of MIR. Poff
for food and was refused during the day.
