BILL BOARDS STIR WILD WEST SPIRIT Flaming Posters Inspire Boys to Reproduce Scenes From Cowboy Life. "Boyer's Indiana Cowboy Troupe" of boys from 9 to 12 years old, appeared complete at police headquarters today after a realistic demonstration of "bad man" catching at North Twelfth street and the railroad yesterday afternoon. - The victim was John Thompson, son of Louis Thompson, 714 North Twelftn street. At police headquarters today, the "bad man" explained that he proceeding innocently along the street after a visit to his father at the railroad shops, when the cowboy troupe dashed down upon him from behind a fence. He was lassoed after several unsuccessful attempts, during which members of the troupe held him while others praaticed until they were proficient enough to make the catch. In the troupe were John Boyer, Frank and George Briese and Horace Fears, all living in the neighborhood in which the attack was made. The Thompson boy told the police that his captors "squeezed him" with ropes against a telegraph pole. Witnesses say the boy was bound tightly from head to foot with rope. The troupe then held an Indian war dance around him while they flourished bowie knives under his nose. The victim added to the scene by crying. for his mother. His cries were so loud that the captors became frightened and released him. Shortly afterward Mrs. Thompson telephoned police headquarters. The police said after questioning the boys, that billboard advertising of a wild west show was the cause of the trouble.

WAR MAY ENLIVEN TRAD!UN HORSES Richmond' Buyers Say Exhaustion of Large Markets Will Create Demand. Horse buyers say the war has had no effect on the Richmond horse market, but they expect to see a good demand for horses later on, especially

those classes which will meet the requirements for the cavalry and artillery. H. H. Jones, who is thoroughly in touch with the local horse trade, said today: "I have not noticed any effect on the local horse market, but I anticipate an increased demand for horses as soon as the warring nations find means of shipping horses across the ocean. As soon as any of the larger markets are sold out, the smaller markets are called upon to replenish them. As soon as heavy trading becomes general in the large markets, buyers will be sent out all over the country." Ordinarily the fall months mark the dull season in horse trading. Farmers and gardeners sell their extra horses to avoid the expense of winter feeding and as a consequence the market becomes glutted at low prices.
