A thtof who gnvo tbo name of Harry John

by Phillips Arrons , a tlerk ICelloy , Stlgor Sc
Co 's ' dry goods store at Fifteenth and
Dodge streets
Shortly ngtcr 2 o'clock three men entered
the store Ono of them said that ho wanted
to buy n silk dress pattern for his sister nnd
that ho wanted peed stuff "
Mr Arrons waited on him Kovoral
pieces wcro shown the men
when Johnson rather suddenly started to
Iravo the stora Ho was carrying his overcoat - •
coat on his arm Arrons suspected that
something was wrong nnd ran after tno fel
low , catching him Juht ns ho got outside the
door , und hustled him back into the private
onlio
Under the overcoat , carefully concealed ,
wus a bolt uf flno silk woith about $10.
The fellow bad little to sav nt
first , but when ho saw the police coming bo
began to rava nnd Unally rcslstod arrest en
tirely Ho was handled by Sergeant Graves
nnd Ofllcer Byrnes until ho reached the
station fighting tbo olllcers nil the way
When the big Iron gate was thrown open it
too it two mom policomcn to put him in n cell
When once locicod up Johnson began curling

Ho is not known by the police , but it is
