 Considerable excitement has been aroused over the fact that parties have been stopping in the house owned by E. Labreck, and supposed to. be vacant. A careful investiga- tion of the premises showed that some ones had been through the house, talk ing cider, clothing, canned goods and. aqgun, besides many other smaller a1ticles. Fhe Methodist parsonage was looked into and it was found that this, being near, was used as an annex to the Labreck property. or perhaps as club room. Here the officers found two pails of Labreok's filled with hard cider, with chairs and dippers handy, Merrick Vint, n found evidence of parties having slept on the hay in the barn on the property, and of stolen property having been carried there. Deputy Sheriff Howard has 8 warrant for one of the members of this summer club. j
