Diltz Evidently a Bad One; Another Story of Crime.

Noah' M. Wenrick, who.for some years lived near Rensselaer and who has been caring for his 'aged father south of Wheattfleld for some time, was a visitor -at The Republican office Tuesday 'afternoon.' It was at the Wenrick home that Roy Dilttz left the stolen buggy and cropped the mane 'and tail of the stolen horse. Mr. Wenrick cays that his suspicions were aroused and that he became convinced that the outfit had been stolen. He said that Blitz, however, told an apparently straight .story, saying that he had been employed on a farm near Monon and had quit because his employer would not furnish pasture for his horse. Mr. Wenrick is glad the young fellow was captured. He Is distantly related by marriage to Diltz and has been acquainted with ithe family for a number el years. He says that Bill Diltz, the boy’s father, was a bad one and served a term in the penitentiary. He also says that it was reported a few yeans ago that Roy and his sister, who dressed in men’s clothes, had tolen « team In Porter county. Among the effects found In Roy’s possessions was a picture of himself and another young man and two girls dressed in men’s clothes. That he is a bad egg seems very certain and Porter county should see to it that be gets a good long term in the pen.
