An Exciting Man Hunt.

About ll.3D a. IN. Tuesday tele-
phone message reached j. II. Twomey,
town marshal and deputy sheriff, that
Max Mahler, the Sedgwick livery man.
had been assaulted and dangerously
wounded by one of band of gypsy
horse-traders which had been camped
nesr Sedgwick for several days. The
message stated that the horse-traderS
were headed towards JuleSburg. and
the marshal at once organized Il posse
OF citizens and started west to capture
the man who had made the assault.
whose description was given. In the
posse were Marshal Twomey. Il. w.
Jenkins, Sid Huntlcy and Frank
Fischer.
The posse had gone only about a
mile west when the man they
wanted was seen riding towards them.
Two members of the posse-Twomcy
and Jenkins alighted from the car
riage in which they were riding and
when the man came within hailing
distance they ordered him to halt.
Instead of complying with this COM
mand, the man put spurs to his horse
and rode past them in run. As he
passed, both Twomey and Jenkins fir
ed their revolvers at the horse. The
animal was struck by the shots, but
did not slacken speed until he had
run nearly three miles north. when he
fell dead. The rider took to the
prairie afoot and succeeeed in making
his escape into Nebraska.
While Marshal Twomey's posse
were chasing the man who had as
saulted Mailer, several members of
the gypsy gang drove rapidly through
Julesburg. They were pursued east
across the state line by w. II. Wal
lace, G. w. White, Ed Lowe and DR..
Babcock, and two members of the
party were arrested and brought back
to town. These were held until it
was learned from Sedgwick that
Mahler's injuries were not serious,
when they were released.
The trouble that brought on the as
sault of Mailer arose over Il horse
race. Mailer and the gypsy were
riding race for a purse of $500 and
the latter struck the former over the
head vito a loaded quirt, inllicting Il
slight scalp wound.
