THE WRONG HORSE Sheriff Durkin Has Been Asked to Locate the Two Young Men WHO DROVE AWAY With Wrong Horse From Schlickman Yard—Bluffton Man’s Horse Gone. ■ — ■ The aid of Sheriff Durkin was enlist- | ed today noon to search for two young ’ men who drove away from the Schlick- i man feed yard this morning with a i horse belonging to B. F. Beckler of Bluffton. Mr. Beckler and a Mr. Sowers of Bluffton, who are selling a shower bath over the country, came here Thursday evening and put up l their horse at the Schlickman yard I for the night. Two strange young m«n with a horse and rig, also came Thursday evening and left their horse there for the night also. The two- - young men left early ’his morning and the attendant at the: yard, being a different one from that , who assisted them Thursday eveniig, : asked them to point out their horse, I whteh they did, designating the Beck ler horse. This was bitched up for ■ them and they started away. When , Mr. Beckler went to get his horse this mc'ning he found it gone, and tbc on< the strangers drove, having been left in its stead. It was thought that ’ perhaps the two strangers had made a mistake and when they would dis cover that they had the wrong horse they would return it. At noon, when the horse had not been returned, fear was expressed, that there might be some crooked work, and the sheriff was notified. There is some fear tha, 1 the horse left there by the strangers ! may have been a stolen one, which they thus tried to palm off on Nie people here. The horse belonging to Mr. Beckler has been owned by him for four years and is a bay worth about $l5O. TO VISIT FATHER.
