A GRAND JURY CASE
SHERIFF HENLEY GIVES AID TO
HIGHLAND TOWNSHIP

Sheriff d. e. Henley received a call
about three O'Clock Saturday morning
from RIchland township, stating that
chicken thieves were operating in the
neighboThood and assistance was ask
ed at the C. w. Hite farm place. Mr..
Henley soon after arriving at the
scene of the trouble where a numb sr
of birds were missing took the trail
of strange outfit and followed it to
the home of one Joseph Mccoy. He
found the missing property and Sc
cured an admission from Mccoy AMI
his wife that they had done the job"
but were willing to pay Mr.. Hite for
the thirty-nine birds found in their
possession.
Mr. Henley began nosing around in
the neighborhood and found where the
same parties had sold 46 birds at Pc
oria. These were identified as the prop
eTty of the Farr home in the Richland
locality.
Further investigation reveals the
fact that the McCoys have been dis
posing of chickens at TaintOr, New
Sharon and Pella regularly for the past
four months.
Both Mccoy and his wife were ar
rested and brought to ,Oskaloosa and
arraigned before o. c. G. Phillips on
a charge of chicken stealing. They
waived examination to the grand jury
and in default of bonds have been
placed in jail

An extension of the street railway

material with which to make the ex,
tension as the government had use for
all the material in sight at the present
time.
The rails entering into the extern.
sion comes from the High avenue line,
west of Fl street and from the College
avenue line, west of the Friends
church at C street and from other
places about town. The old rails taken
up will be relaid in the new extern

that now exist and prices of all ma

service line will not be possible until
after the close of the war or until the
demand for material entering into the
construction of line becomes some
where near normal.
The new extension will have right OF

Friends church. 1t will pass the Chau-
