a man walks when he is drunk Mar
shall Moore saw him and started To
overtake him and advise him to hunt
a quiet place off the street. Just be-
fore he caught up with Aldai the lat
ter i'm passing. picked up an AK from
in front of ID. II. Burtis' store and car
ried IL along with him. Observing this
the marshal put him under arrest and

MEAN THIEF, IF IT WAS A
THIEF. - The old dark brown mare
which in DAYS gone by. has been an
important functionary at the Critten-
ton Home. has been stolen, or at least
she is missing under circumstances
that suggest that she has been stol-
en-. Friday night she was apparently
perfectly 'contented In the little corral
as usual. without a strap or rope orna-
menting her graceful figure Yesterday
morning. she was gone. as also was
the halter which was left in the barn.
That indicates that the horse was
| either stolen or when she left she
wanted to make it appear that she
| was KIDNAPPED. 1t is hardly believed
that she would be IN to these girlish
| franks either for she has passed the
| ripe age Of ten summers. though she is
| still quite proud and "peart." She wore
| her name cut pOmpadour. and her tail
was somewhat frazzled by interminable
beating against the whiffletree. though
| il can be said to her credit that II had
never been bleached by peroxide of n.y.
| drogen. II is believed the old mare
means well but has been led astray
by some criminally inclined person
who had a firm hold on the halter
| strap. and any one who can give in
| formation concerning her whereabouts
either to the home authorities or the
sheriff. wall do favor that will Re
appreciated.
