A Bad Pardner.

Monday two men came over from
Hoisington, presumably seeking
work. They stopped at a lodging
house, and one of them George White
secured employment. Before going
to work he thought best to go to the
lodging house and see if everything
was all right. He found his ''pardner"
had skipped. taking all his clothing
and a revolver. The officers capg ht
the pardner, few miles from town.
His name is Geo. Van Cott, and in
Justice Ogle's court he was found
guilty of petty larceny and sentenced
to six months in the county jail.
Sam Shattuck was over from Hois-
