GnoCER ACCUSED OF
THEFTS COVERING MONTHS
r. &. Peck Arrested at Barn of J. AM
brose by Officer on Watch
for Systematic
Robber

F. E. Peck, a grocer of 1888 East First
street, was arrested last night by Patrol
man Carroll and placed in the city prison
on a charge Of petty larceny
1t Is alleged that Peck has for the last
six months been systematically stealing
grain from the barn of j. Ambrose, also
a grocer, at 1886 East First street.
Commencing last May, Ambrose began
missing grain from his barn, a sack at
a time He reported the thefts to the
police on numerous occasions, but no
trace could be obtained of the culprit.
Finally the thefts mounted to such pro-
portions that he asked the detective de-
partment to take hand in the matter
and Patrolman Carroll in plain ciothes'
was detailed on the case.
Last night the officer took a position
in the barn where he had good view
of the pile of grain sacks and within an
hour after he commenced his watch
man cautiously entered the place and,
shouldering a sack of grain, started out
with it.
Carroll placed the man under arrest,
and as soon as a light was obtained ne
was recognized He said that 1t was the
first time he had been to the barn, and
having a call for a sack of grain which
he was out of he concluded to borrow 1t
and report the matter in the morning,
Ambrose having closed his store and left
before dark

Stories of petty burglaries have worked
on the Imagination of @. X. Arslan, who
manages the Ostrich dye works, 716 West
Third street, and for the last two weeks
Arslan has slept with one eye open
watching for an expected, but unhoped-
for visitor.
In the darkest hour of Thursday night,
while Arslan was in his most restless
mood he heard the stealthy pit-a-pat of
what he imagined to be shoelesS feet.
Raising his head from the pillow in his
bedroom adjoining the store, Arslan saw
in the darkness a deeper shadow, figure
the outlines of which seemed to his imag-
ination, now made abnormal by thoughts
of unknown enemies, to be that of a man.
Fearing to move, Arsland watched the in
truder, saw a movement toward the show
window and then heard a crash.
Past Arsland's door dashed figure,
seemingly monstrous in size. An open
window was cleared, while Arsland, who
had leaped from his bed, stood amazed
at the actions of what he thought was a
burglar.
| Gaining courage with the flight of the
! supposed thief, Arsland turned on the
! electric lights and made hasty exam
ination of his store. Everything appeared
safe and sound. Not until Arsland had
continued his Investigations to the snow
window did he find that two of the beau
tiful ostrich plumes, valued highly and
used for show purposes only, had dis
appeared.
Returning to bed, Arsland waited until
morning, when he hoped with the aid OF
the police to run down the thief. When
he made a daylight investigation of the
affair he discovered cat had entered the
store through g transom Going to the
window the cats feet had become stuck
to a sheet of tanglefoot fly paper and In
its distraction at the strange predicament
in which it was placed the animal rushed
frantically from side to side of the win
dow seat. 1t was on one of these trips
that the sticky paper came in contact
with the two plumes, which adhered to
the paper and caused the feline so much
