TRIED TO SELL So FOWLS

Zeb Stoneking and Warnie Easley,
both charged with stealing chickens,
were brought back to Keokuk Wed,
nesday night from Kahoka by Sheriff
Scott and Deputy Sheriff Montgom-
cry. They were arrested at Alex
andria, and transferred to Kahoka,
from which place Sheriff Scott
brought them back here for trial.
Their arrest was accomplished
through the activities of the sheriff
and his deputies, who had been work
ing on chicken thieving cases for
about four weeks.
The two men were arraigned be-
fore Justice Hawkes. this afternoon at
2 o'clock.
The men were charged with taking
fifty-eight chickens from j. F. Haw-
ldns place on the Plank road. They
were endeavoring to sell them to the
general store at Alexandria, accord
ing to the word received by the au-
thorities here. The men drove into
Alexandria, 1t is claimed, in Stone
kings Ford, with chicken coop on
the car. The fowls had been thrust
in under the coop, and one of them
was smothered to death. 1t is claim
ed by the owner Of the chickens that
some of the fowls can be identified,
and it is expected to make showing
on this line at the hearing. Chickens
have been disappearing from around
Keokuk for some time and Sheriff
Scott has been working on the case.
Whether these men in custody Will
be connected with all of these crimes
remains to be seen.
Both Easley and Stonelfing were
confined in the county Jail. The
prisoners there as soon as they found
out what the men We're ticketed for,
