Jack Sullivan was on the spot in an in
stsnt, and leaping upon the negro,
wrenched the smoking revolver from
his grasp and pinned the yeggman to
the earth. Other men jumped upon the
PROSTATE form and he was held a cap
tive. During the fight, two other mem
bers Of the band managed to make
their escape.
POLICE SUMMONED.
When the lights were noticed in the
, school house, the police were notified
by telephone. Night Captain Kramer
received the message, and Immediately
communicated with the sheriff's office,
inasmuch as the robbers roost was
outside the city nmitss
In less than five minutes Deputy
Sheriff George Siemon, Night Captain
Kramer and Of1cers Herkert and Gin
name had piled into a waiting taxi cab
and we're on the way to the scene as
! fast as the machine could go. A battle
was expected and all were armed to
/ the teeth.
THREATS OF LYNCHING.
When they reached the spot, they
found the negro held to the earth and
surrounded by a crowd OF Infatuated
citizens. Threats of lynching filled
the air and the negro was Immediately
taken into custody. Ofcer johnson
had arrived on the scene and re-en
forced with the additional man, the
officers decided 20 storm the fortified
ton, as it was still believed that the
remainder Of the band were hiding il
the basement.
PREPARED FOR A STAY.
An entrance was effected through
an outside cellar door, but when tn,
police had gained the interior, it wa
found that the birds had flown. !
fire was burning in the furnace and
big pile Of coal gave evidence that tn
yeggmen had decided to make thei
stay a permanent and comfortable one
Seven or eight baskets of provisions
enough to last a week, were found il
the place In addition there wer
three overcoats, blankets, guns, an
munition and a kit of burglar tool:
A big pot of mulligan stew was cool
ing on the red hot Goals and it wa
evident that the robber band wer
just preparing their evening meal whe
the interruption came.
NEGRO Is STRANGER.
The negro, who was captured, CAV
the name of Frank Russell. He is fror
Bloomington and is AZ years old. Hi
stories vary so greatly that the polio
put very little faith in the few stat
% ments which he has already mad,
. The robbers have evidently been ST
: toned in the basement of the schoC
: house for some time, and il is yer
, likely that this band is the same whic
has been perpetrating the various burr

:, some time past
: Russell was placed under $3.50

WINTER CARE OF
THE BROOD MARE
Plenty Of Exercise Necessary
to Produce Healthy F0aIs.

One Of the most important points in
caring for brood mares is to give them
plenty of exercise, writes A. c. Becker
In American C%ultiVator. prefer to
use my brood mare In a team, but not
to do any heavy work which would be
likely to cause a strain. Keep her
sharp shod to lessen danger OF abor
ton. l don't think that heavy draw
ing hurts a brood mare as long as she
Is not severely backed or jerked. be
careful not to give her too much hay.
as she Is apt to eat too much If given
a chance.
/ prefer mixed clover and timothy
hay. Feed more grain and less hay.
| prefer bran to oats. l generally feed
a half gallon of bran and a half gallon
of chop at each feed. Give the mare
some roots. as 1t helps to keep her
bowels regulated. aud you will be less
troubled with the colt having constl-
patton. If you have no roots feed salts
occasionally. / firmly believe In work
ing my mares until foaling time.
When the colt is constipated | use
fresh butter and q tablespoonful of
whisky three times a day.
Also 1t is a good practice to inject
oil. 1t pays to lose a little sleep II you
want TO raise colts. Be on hand to as
sist the mare In foaling If necessary.
Disinfect the string before tying the
navel. l have had more trouble with
constipation than with joint Ill and be.
lieve 1t is caused by not keeping the
mares bowels loose enough.
