st as we were
froir.sr to press, the ?heriS" brought
word that Mr. James Patterson's
horses Had been st den during the
r.i-rhl, toretlici- with a set of harness.
Everyone was up in arms at once.

Sreeulatin was rife ail day on he'
rev ts as to where they would find
their., if at all; if they would catch
the thief; if they would brine him
h"rne alive, etc.
All doubt about tindir.fr the horses
was set at rest in the evening, by the
return of Patterson and Lcvintr, with
the st' U-n animals and harness, which
i hey found in the bushes near Mr. Er
vin's in Liberty precinct, this county.
The thief, for the time, escaped.
Next Day.
Was a lively day in P!attmouth,
anyway. In the mornin.tr Dr. (?
Warner had his trial, and just as that
was a'ut closed, Lavinus Patterson
the Ervins and Joe Van Horn came
up with the supposed horse thief.
At least they brought an old fellow
whom they had caucrkt in the brush
near where the horses ht'd been tied,
who could prive no very jrood account
of himself. A warrant was made
.-u and boss Marshal .Murphy took
the a"cd. indigent, wet and muddy
suspe-.-ted citi.tn over to the cast-iron
jail, situated on the corner of this
and that street, Plattsmouth. On

The trial was opened by Judtre
Sullivan, no attorneys appearing on
cither side.
James Patterson swore to the theft
of the horses, etc.
P. L. Rowe, saw the prisoner at
Peter Clarence's door, on Thursday,
saw the tracks of horses, about 1 a.
m., half a mile from Clarence's.
John Clarence and A. Beekman two

d al of amusement by "gettin' ahead j
of his circumstances," as he called it, j
every now and then. 'Lowed he saw
the defendant about Id o'clock Eri-
day morning when his hounds and ;
"the gentleman there before you came '
out of the woods together; the only
difference letween the gentleman
llu-re before you and the hounds,
gentlemen, was you saw him first and
the hounds a minute after," said Joe.
Went down to get Ervin's to help;
as we returned saw an object jump
from the road, either a colt or a dog
or a man. The object jumped into
the creek off the bank, 5 feet 7 in.
When we pot there found tracks of
feet and being on horseback, higher
than the others, I saw the very man
in that chair, gentlemen, over in the
bushes; "said "Good morning" and he
said "Good morning." (Here the wit-1
ness's circumstances got mixed in
w ith the tacks in the old man's shoes,
and we leave the others to tell the
tale.) 1
The prisoner objected to this wit-
ness as being under the influence of
liquor. The Judge said he would,

After he had washed his face and
combed his hair he came out and we
all went up by the fence and he sat
down and took off his riirht shoe and
wrunLT his sock out and put it on
atrain. It had one biir tack in the
center of the heel. The tracks in the
barley and where he jumped down
correspond with the shoe. Measured
tracks, etc.. and hands measure up to
juJ.e. Prisoner requests that the

that is the shoe he took off. The track
of this shoe and the tracks where the
horses were tied are the same, also
when he tried to water the horse:.
the bitr tack in center of ritrht heel
shows plain, (witness tells the same
story about breakfast, etc.)
Mary Clarence a little r:rl ten

that is the man. He came from the

south and east through the brush.
Prisoner asks if there was not an

Prisoner asked when he measured
the tracks. Witness, "Saturday
They spar about rain washing them
out, and when over the old man spoke
up quick and sharp, like a lawyer,
-That's all."
Silas Patterson caught the horses
and tells the subsequent proceedings
about coming to town with the pris
oner. Says John Osier first found the
horses. Patterson followed the horse
tracks from the time they were
struck to where they were tied, and
roje up an(j untied one horse while
SOme one else did the other. There
were no foot tracks in the road, and
no other men tracks made where the
horses watered.

YOUNG LAD DIS
POSES OF STOLEN
DO
It u
From Saturday's IJaliy.
This morning complaint was filed
by County Attorney A. G. Cole in the
county court against Delbert Allen,
charging the lad with having disposed
of stolen property in the shape of two
brans automobile lamps that were the
property of R. L. Propst. The boy
had scld the lamps to a junk dealer
residing in the north part of the city
and received "T cents for the two of
them. The court after hearing the
evidence in the case found the r oy
guilty, hut suspended sentence during
his good behavior and the promise to
tay out of trouble.
There is one feature in a case of this
kind that the county attorney is laying
stress upon, and that is the fact that
persons purchasing goods that have
been stolen are laving themselves lia
ble under the law to punishment as
well as the person disposing of the
goods. The law states that a child
has no light to enter into a contract,
or make sale, and the person who pur
chases goods from them under these
circumstances is making themselves
liable to punihment for the offense.
FROST & WORLEY LEMPER CO.
In a deal completed last week the
Yates Lumber company yard at Man
ley changed hands and the firm be
comes the Frost & Worley company.
The new owners are II. M. Frost and
his father-in-law. II. M. Worley. Mr.
Woiley is well known here, having
been for some time proprietor of what
is now the Wickersham hardware
store. He is now superintendent of
the new consolidated schools at Alvo.
Mr. Frost, who married Miss Blanche
Worley. is net personally known here
but he is a mighty fine appearing
young man and appears to be capa
ble of much energy and ability. He
will have charge of the yard and he
and Mr. Frost have already taken up
their home at Manley. They come to
this countv from Merrick county.
where they have recently been farm
ing two and a half miles west of Cen
tral City. Previous to this Mr. Frost
was enraged in the retail hardware
business.
Following is the commendation paid
them by the Central City NonpaWel.
"The people of Manley are very for
tunate indeed in having such an ex
cellent family as this join their num
ber and the business men of that city
"hould congratulate themselves upon
the addition of Mr. Frost to their
nv'dst, as he is a live wire from start
to finish and will constantly do all he
can to boost the city of his adoption."

CLAIMS FACTS MISSTATED.
The Journal is in receipt of a com
munication from Roman Meier, of
Louisville, in which he desires to have
a correction made as to the account
of his accident near this city in which
his automobile ran into a ditch. Mr.
Meier states that he was coming to
Plattsmouth at the time the accident
occurred and not enroute back to
Louisville as had been stated.

Indianapolis, Ind., March 11. A tor
nado swept over central eastern Indi
ana late today, killing more than a
score of persons at Newcastle and two
children in Wayne county. The total
number of injured will run over 200,
some of whom are probably fatally
hurt.
The damage will total well over
51,000,000 at Newcastle and several
thousand dollars in Wayne county.
Wire communication was crippled
by the storm and reports were meager
and hard to obtain.
Adjutant General Harry B. Smith of
the Indiana National Guard was at his
office late tonight directing measures
for reiief. He said his reports were
that twenty-six were dead and l'.o in
jured at Newcastle. Two companies
of militia were ordered to Newcastle
to police the city. Physicians, nurses,
undertakers and ambulances were sent
from nearby towns. Two special in
terurban cars, carrying thirty phy
sicians and fifty nurses, were sent
from here early in the evening.
At Newcastle.
Newcastle. Ind., March 11. More
than a score of persons were killed
and 1"0 were injured, some fatally, in
a tornado which wrecked 300 resi
dences in this city late today. The
property damage was roughly esti
mater at ?1,000,000.
Early tonight the list of identified
dead stood at ten in the morgue, but
it was said several others had been
found in various sections of the
wrecked district.
The identified dead:

Mrs. ARCHIE FLETCHER.

Expect to Find More.
The exact number of dead may not
be known for a day or two, as practi
cally all the bodies thus far found have
been dug out of the wreckage of their
homes. The search tonight was ham
pered by darkness, but with .the com
ing of daylight tomorrow it is believed
more bodies will be found.
The storm swept over the city in a
southeasterly direction, demolishing
practically everything in a path almost
two blocks wide and more than ten
blocks long. For several hours the
city was entirely cut off from com
munlcatlon.
Governor Goodrich was asked to
send troops to police the city, which
is in darkness tonight, owing to the
demolition of the power plant.
Confusion Fellows.
Confusion and disorder followed in
the path of the storm. Those who es
caped injury and death ran wildly
about the streets, women and chil
dren crying and wringing their hands
and men shouting and cursing. The
men finally settled down and began
the work of rescue, digging in the ru
ins of their homes for missing mem
bers of their families.
Only two or three bodies were found
in the streets.
Several fires broke out in the wreck
age on the south side, but a heavy rain
kept them from spreading. While
many substantial residences were dam
agedthe greatest destruction was in
the factory district.
No Warning of Storm.
There was little warning of the ap
proaching tornado. A huge funnel
shaped cloud suddenly appeared in the
west, hanging low and sweeping
tow-ard the city with lightning-like
speed. Groups of persons on the
streets began seeking shelter, men and
women running wildly through the
streets.
The tornado lasted only about five
minutes, and was followed by a hard
rain which also stopped in a few min
utes. One witness of the storm who was
driving with his family in an automo -

A NUMBER OF CHILDREN ILL.

Milk in Winter.
Why do your cows give less milk
in winter than thev do in summer?
Just because nature does not sup
ply them with grasses and green
food. But we have come to the as

tains the very ingredients that the
green feed supplies in season, only,
of course, in a more highly concen

remedy will make your cows give more
milk, and better milk with the same
feed.
