George Levan Who Gave the Officers
Such a Chase Last Week Ar
rested Yesterday at
Ottumwa.
WORKING AT HIS TRADE
Had Been In Mount Pleasant But
Found no Work There and
Went to ottumwa
to Work.

George lie Van, the man who took
livery stable of j. G.. Fackler, and
which was found in Burlington on
Thursday morning early by the police
officers of that city. has been caught
and has been placed under arrest and
will be taken to Wayland probably
today.
Sheriff C. B. Goe of Mount Pleasant,
Henry county, is responsible for the
mans capture, having arrested him
Saturday morning while working in a
harness shop at Ottumwa. LIE Van
was taken to Mount Pleasant where
he is now safe in Jail and will be
taken to Wayland without requisition
papers
Despite the fact that wrong de-
scription of the man was given Sher-
if Goe, he landed his man, the de-
scription given him saying that LIE
Van was five feet six inches tall,
while the Wayland man is six feet
tall.
The name of the Ottumwa harness
shop in which LIE Van was working
was not learned but in communication
by long distance telephone with Sher-
if Goe last night, he stated that lie
Van had been in Ottumwa only day
and had worked at the shop in which
he was arrested but day.
In Mt. Pleasant.
The day before, Friday, he was in
Mount Pleasant and was looking for
J, work, asking a number Of harness
shop proprietors there for employment
but he could find none. From this
fact, it would be seen that he was in.
dustrious and was continually seek
ing employment When he left for OF
tumwa, he stated that he was going
west and had probably decided to get
off at Ottumwa where he secured
work.
During lie Vans stay in Mount
Pleasant, Sheriff Goe was in another
part of the county looking after bust
ness and did not hear of the man
being there until his return. He
went to Ottumwa and returned with
him to Mount Pleasant.
In communication with the police
last evening, the sheriff inquired the
amount of the reward offered for the
mans arrest. He would not tell the
police whether or not he had gotter
the man, but when speaking with this
office, stated that he had the man in
jail there and would take him tc
Wayland and turn him over to the
authorities of that state today.
Quick Arrest.
The last heard of LIE Van was al
Burlington on Wednesday afternoon
when he was kicked from a hote
there for looking too much like :
tramp. He probably took train fol
Mount Pleasant and other interven
ing points. The team was returned
to its owner on Thursday night, being
brought down by boat and it was
thought that it would be only mat
ter of time before LIE Vans arrest.
lie Van was probably very much
under the influence of liquor and may
have had no intention of stealing the
team, Is what some of the county
authorities believe. He will be giveI
trial in the Missouri courts for horse
stealing after he has been turned
over to the officials there.

ONE OF OLD GUARD
 HRS PASSED AWAY
George Fifield Dies In Phoenix. Lived In Arizona For
 Forty Years,

George Fifield, one of the last of the territory's pioneers. 0sed Saturday morning in Phoenix. He was 77 years of age, and had resided continuously in Arizona for the last forty years.
 Acting Coroner Joinstone held an inquest with his corcners jury over the body this morning. The cause Of Fifeld's death is a3eribed to an ae- cident about ten years ago He was thrown down while attempting t0 erasp the brides of a team frighten- ed by the noise of q Chinese new years celebration, and the heavy wheels of the carriage rolled over him breaking a nLmber of bones and caus- ing thereby injuries from which he never fully recovered.
 Fifeld belonged te the old school of picturesque westerners. In Ari- zona he was equally at home in any town, and was familiar with the en- tire territory. He was an old-time stage driver oa oae line or another and 1t was while engaged in that oc- cupation that he earned the sugges- tive sobTiquet. Punch the Breeze. That was his nick n9me and he ear ried it to the day of his death.
 The later years Of Fifield's life were rather lonely ones. Most of the friends of his youth had drffted away or were dead. and he had no relatives upon whom to rely for comfort or aid.

 After they had received their pay, the section hands working at the Flor ence station crossed the river to the town of Florence ana supplied them selves with the wherewithal for one grand spree as is their custom when ever they are paid oI. A part of the evening was spent at Florence and when they returned to the station all had bottles in their pockets and the carousing continued far into the night
 Finally Valdez sought q little bunk house made of railroad ties and lay down to sleep. 1t is presumed that when he entered the place he was
