Seized Four Suits.

farm laborer, explained in the criminal
court that, being unable to collect So
from James Boyce, living near Flack-
vile, he took four suits of clothes as
payment. He admitted he was gen.

excellent quality and appearance.
"First 1 put on one suit" he said,
'and then 1 thought how much better
It looked on me than it did on Boyce,
SO took the Others"
With the disappearance of. his suits

grand jury and an indictment was re-
turned against the farm laborer. Boyce
paid SIS to find and return Devine to
the city to face the larceny charge.
Devine went to Madison, Ind, after

that the General Federation must be

that a part of the inspiration comes
from the bigness. History has never
yet fully written the chapter as to the

reason why there is in this dear land

bell several times a man put his head
out Of the bedroom window to say that

He came down in dressing gown and
carrying candle in his hand.
The constable explained his suspi-

he had just run up to town to see that
all was right After chatting for a lit
tie he invited the constable to have q

was the account Of a war waged be-

perhaps $500 B. O. The first battle
was that between Cain and Abel Ap-

The first warlike king is said to have

Of the shire counties in the heart OF

the word "shire" in connection with
horses was used in statutes Of Henry

English black horse and the shire horse
the breed has for centuries been cult
waited in the rich fen lands of Lincoln

has done so much to promote the
