CAPTURE ALLEGED
THIEF WITH
SYSTEM" y
PHOENIX DE- TIVE
AND LOCAL OFFICER
POUNCE DOWN ON T. H.
CHERETTE
(From Tuesdays Daily.)


Detective NJ. Joe Murphy of
Phoenix, assisted by officers from
Sheriff Keeler's Office, yesterday eff
fected the arrest of Thomas H.
Cherette, wanted in Phoenix charg-
ed with as clever burglary sys-
tenn as has ever been unearthed in
the criminal history of that city.
Cherette was pursuing his newly
adopted vocation of peddling photo
graphic engagements when bounced
upon by Detective Murphy and
Deputy Sheriff Frank Wilson in
east Prescott. He was rushed to
the county Jail from where a ma
chine was secured and driven down
to the depot in time to catch the
40 train for Phoenix yesterday af-
ternoon.
When Cherette commenced the
erection of an $1,000 home in Phoe-
nix, his employer, Ezra w. Thayer
one of the largest hardware dealers
in the State became suspicious.
Cherette was only a clerk working
for a small salary.
Recently, Cherette severed his
connections with the hardware COM
pany and ventured into the photo
enlargement business. When he
left home, the hardware company
engaged the detective to investigate
The new building was looked over
and considerable of the merchandise
of the store found to be lodged in
doors, windows, walls and the gen.
eral makeup of the new structure,
entailing an outlay of several hun
bred dollars. No account had been
charged to Cherette, it is alleged,
and no cash was ever paid for the
supplies.
Then commenced the chase after
Cherette, the detective arriving here
Sunday evening. Together with
deputy sheriffs, he secured the city
yesterday morning but the pursuit
was fruitless. The hotel registers,
with the exception OF one, were
looked over. In that one, the John
son House Cherette was located.
The capture of Cherette and his
quick departure for Phoenix is in a
great measure due to the sister of
Deputy Sheriff Wilson. Acting the
part of Il sleuth, the woman i'm
called up the SherifFs Of
hce when she spied Cherette walk
