TRAILED The ROBBERS
The CIew Furnished BY BIOOdhOunds
Cause Arrest Of Four

the town on Thursday night of last
week when the Love jewelry and
variety store was broken into and
robbed and the Denbo restaurant
entered and quantity of ice cream,
cake and fruit eaten and cigars and
other stuff carried away. At Loves
store a panal of glass was care
fully removed and the back door
unbolted. Goods to the value of
$25 were missing The store had
been robbed just a week before.
An investigation showed that the
thieves had inspected the back
doors and windows of several other
business houses in an attempt to
get in and it was decided to try
and put a stop to further operations
of the gang. A fund to defray
the expenses was quickly raised
and the Chillicothe bloodhounds
were telephoned for. Sam Rohrer
and Deputy Sheriff Davis of
Livingston county brought the
hounds down on the noon train.
The dogs had no trouble in picking
up the scent in the enclosure at the
rear of Lomax & Co.'S drygoods
store and at the back of Sherry's
drugstore where the tracks were
plain and undisturbed. The trail
led to the ally, north to the opera
house corner, east one block to a
vacant house north of the depot,
through the yard to the track of
the north ~" where the dogs
seemed to lose the scent. They
were brought back and started
again. They went over the same
route but when they reached the
railroad they went north one block
to the crossing east of Moberly's
implement house, where they again
got confused and were returned for
another start. They went over the
same route again but when they
got to the crossing, without even
haIting, they turned east to the
residence of John Vinegar and
would have entered the house had
the door not been closed.
Constable Ben Thompson and
Marshal Pease at once suspected
Trace, Winegar's oldest son, but
he was not at home nor in the
crowd of more than a hundred who
were watching the work of the dogs.
However, he was found up town
shortly afterwards and placed under
arrest.
After some questioning he ad
mitted his guilt and named Ray
Goodwin, a boy about IL years of
age, as being implicated in the
When arrested the Good
win boy denied knowing anything
about the robbery and told pretty
straight story as to the time he
went home that evening. But on
the evidence of Vinegar the two
were locked up. When examined
that evening by Prosecuting At
torney Mckinney Vinegar also
named Henley 0sgood and a colored
fellow by the name of Vance as
having taken part in the robbery.
These two were arrested and all
four were given a hearing the next
day before Justice E. K. Welsh.
Vinegar changed his statement
about the Goodwin boy and he was ,
and Vinegar was released
On bond. The OsgoOd boy proved
