Thursday morning about seven j’cloek Harry Lewis discovered that his tiuddlc had been stolen during :he night. Footsteps and marks where the cinches had dragged in he sand were traced to where there were tracks of a buggy drawn by imull footed mules. The trail wus follow for four miles to the residence if Arthur Newman where another laddie wus taken. A posse was or ganized and took up the trail. It was followed to llaogan s bridge.

About sundown the pursuiag part es found the alleged rustlers in amp on the south side of the snow enac about three miles west of town. Cbey proved to be two young men lamed Everett Robinson and Frank L'ole. Perhaps out of fear of being inched, knowing the method •fideal ing out justice iu the neighborhood where they stole their plunder (Rob inson formerly lived there) they 4rabbed their guns and tied. Young Lewis and Wm. McAllister pursued them on foot. On the south bank of the Elkhorn Cole was shot. Lewis and McAllister mounted their horses and captured Robinson about one half mile further on. Ralph Lewis came to town and gavd notice of what was done. Coroner Kline wus wiied. He came on the noon train today (Friday.) The coroner issued a venire lor six jurymen and placed it in the hands of Constable Allman for ser vice. They repaired to the scene of the tragedy where they were swornin by the coroner.
