PERRY GOODNER IN JAIL AT MITCHELL

Man 'Who Skipped Out Five Years Ago With Rented and Mortgaged Property Captured. Perry Goodner is in jail at Mitchell, S. Dak., and Sheriff Hoover, of Jasper county, is on the road after him, bearing a requisition signed by the governor of two states. « Five years ago next September Goodner disappeared from Rensselaer. He took with him a buggy which he had rented from Liveryman John M. Knapp, a team of mules which were mortgaged to John M. Judy and is presumed to have taken along another man’s wife. The mules were later recovered by Judy, but not until he had spent their value in money looking for them. The buggy was never recovered. Mr. Knapp has been trying for five years to locate Goodner. and it was his relentlessness that resulted in his apprehension last week at Mitchell. The woman Goodner was supposed to have taken with him eventually returned here. Sheriff Hoover is expected to return hefe Thursday and Gtoodner will probably get a trip over the road.
