New Hampton, Iowa, Dec. Is. -
Charles Taylor, Walter Murphy and
Harry Grotemac, the men captured for
the recent safe blowing at the Ayers
Lumber Co., at Lawler, received their
preliminary hearing before Justice j.
E. Noble, who bound them over to the
district court. In open court before
Judge W. J. Springer, the three pris-
oAers pleaded guilty to breaking and
entering in the night and to larceny,
and each received sentence of ten
years at Fort Madison. They received
their sentence without any sign of
emot on and impressed all the witness
es as being hardened in crime. They
will be taken to prison Immediately by
Sheriff Russell and his deputies.
A peculiar incident has come to light
in connection with their purchase of q
pocket fash light at garage here, on
the day of the burglary at Lawler.
When showing them the flash light,
the local salesman said, in jocular
manner, ''This would be good thing
to crack safe with. = The crook gave
him q swift glance and replied indiffer-
emily, 81 might try it"

Valuable Reiier Badty Injured.

The new and valuable PoIled Angus
heiter recently bought by C. D..
Nichols was badly injured Wednesday
at Wentworth & Burr's garage where
the Short Course stock judging is done.
The animal was led in By Harold
Nichols and was attacked by Went
worth's bull dog, a vicious beast,
which could not be driven off. In it's
fright. the heifer plunged through the
big plate glass window and was badly
cut about the forelegs, one cut at the
knee joint being especially deep and
dangerous. and will probably result in
permanent injury of a serious charac-
ter, if infection does not set in and
cause death. In either event, the
damage done is greater than the value
of al! the dogs in the county. The
legislature should place the dog tax so
high as to discourage people from har-
boring the worthless brutes
