HUSBAND AND WIFE
HELD AT WINCHESTER
ON LARCENY CHARGE

WINCHESTER, Ind, July 20
Sheriff Lundy Fisher arrested James
S. Page and Gladys Page, husband
and wife, at Redkey, Saturday on a
charge of grand larceny and returned
them to this city. They were arraigned
before Judge A. L. Bales and each gave
bond to the amount of $1,000, with A.
w. Fowler of Redkey and Willis
Hodge of this city, as sureties. On
Wednesday afternoon Mrs. Page en-
tered the Victor Harmon garage at
Saratoga and told the saleswoman that
she and her husband had been having
trouble with tires, and would have to
buy a new tire. Not knowing the ex-
act size, she asked permission to take
two tiresout to the edge Of town,
where the machine was standing and
that one would soon be returned and
she would settle for the other.
When she did not return, after wait
ing for some time, Mrs. Harmon grew
suspicious and sent the garage boy
out to investigate. He was told, by
persons who saw the machine, that
there had been no tire trouble but
that the woman placed the two tires
in the car and drove off, toward Red
key. The garage sent out machines
which overlook the Page car, and the
two Harmon tires with another new
tire, were found concealed in the car
The tires were recovered and the
machine number taken. AS soon as
Shriff Fisher was notified he tele
phoned to the secretary of state, and
learned that the car belonged to A
w. Fowler, of Redkey and later learn
ed that Mr.. and Mrs. Page, who drove
the car, through Saratoga, were EN-
ployed by him. When Mrs. Page ap
peared in court she carried in hel
frms a young baby.

O'ROurke. Johnson lifted an easy
fly to Collins.
