ored men on the juries of the south. We are

film under the very nose of the mana
ger of the Daniel Boone show at the
Robinson carnival, then departed with
his loot to Dayton, O., is in the county
jail.
Sergeant McManus spent the greater
part Of Thursday IN Dayton in an at
tempt to bring the young fellow, who
is about n years old, back TO Rich
mond. He was arrested Wednesday
night by the Dayton police. and he told
them as well as Sergeant McManus
that he would not return to Richmond
unless the governor of Ohio honored
extradition papers in his case.
The officials labored long with Pang-
burn, but he was obstinate. The ex-
tradition papers must be forthcoming
Finally, the argument advanced by
Sergeant McManus that he intended
to remain in Dayton until Pangburn
consented to return to Richmond, had
its effect on the young man. He rea-
soned that the extradition papers
would surely be honored by Governor
Harris and that he might as well go
back to the Hoosier state and stand
trial without any more delay than nee
esEary Reaching this decision he
consented to return and last evening
and his triumphant captor.
Sergeant McManus, arrived here and
the young man was at once taken to
the county jail.
Thursday afternoon the grand jury
returned an Indictment charging Pang-
burn with grand larceny. He was ar
raigned in the circuit court under this
indictment and entered a plea of not
guilty. Pangburn stated that he had
no money to employ an attosney. so
Judge Fox assigned Pauper Attorney
2. ]. Freeman to represent the young
fellow.
Pangburn is a shrewd one and up to /
late has had absolutely nothing to say
about his guilt or innocence. The po-
ice here are of the opinion that Pang-i
3urn has led a checkered career and F
hat this is not the first time he has
iaced trouble. The date for the hear
ing of the case has not yet been set
out he will probably be tried some time
