John says there is much activ-
ity in the Warrens section this

Jail--Companion In Bad fo'
Receiving Stolen Goods.

Il Cbas. Graham and Joe Collins
1.-TWO transients, were placed un.
Pder arrest here Tuesday afte,
moon for stealing a suit of clothes
and were taken to Grangevillt
"wednesday evening by Sheriff
Yates and placed in the count!
! |iail. Graham, who carried one
arm in a sling as the result OF
severe burns recently received
from a gasoline explosion, was
/ the one who did the stealing and
turned the clothing over to Col
|lins, who claims he received it as
belonging to Graham.
The suit was taken from the
|C. B. Fetters home Tuesday
evening while Mrs. Fetters was
visiting a neighbor. She saw
Graham walking down the street
with the suit on his arm but
thought nothing of it until the
suit was missed later. Mr.. Fet-
ters then instituted a search and
soon located Graham and brought
him down town where he was
arrested and placed in the city

Graham turned it over to Collins
as having been given to him and
the latter was held on the charge
of receiving stolen property.
Graham is said to be a dope"
fiend. The preliminary hearing
of the two men will take place

Council Had Busy Session

The village council had quite a
busy session Monday evening
and disposed of a number of mat
ters of greater or lesser impor-
tance before the members brought
their last business session to a
close.
After allowing the usual grist

meeting for the purpose of select
ing a ticket for the coming viii
lage election. City clerk Belknap
reported a total of IL registrations
up to the time his books closed
on March 9th, which, together
with the so votes cast at the last
election will mean that only 62
voters can vote at the coming
election without swearing in their
registration on election day.
1t was decided to secure the
south room of the Creelman build
ing as a polling place for holding
the village election and w. M.
Schiller, l. M. Julian and j. E.
Smith were appointed judges and
Mrs. Rhett and Mrs. Libbey
clerks of the election. The Off
cial election proclamation will be
found elsewhere in this issue.
The matter of putting in a COW
cred drain for about $50 feet on
the south side of First street east
of Broadway was considered and
ordered installed and the board
then went on record for street
improvement by voting for GER
tain street work on Main, King
and Broadway streets within the
next four weeks.
After passing a short ordinance
vacating a stub of an alley in
block &C." east of Idaho street,
the board then adjourned until
May Sd, when the newly elected
trustees will be sworn in and the
affairs of the village turned over
to their tender mercies.
