Marvin Kahns Captured.

Marvin 1 Kuhns, the desperado who has received so much attention in the city papers for some weeks past, was captured early Thursday morning, at Green Hill, a small place in Warren county. He and another man, supposed to be his brother, stole a fine team and surrey near Plymouth, Sunday, and were followed by Sheriff Marshall, and Marshal Chaney, of Plymouth, a< d were finally located at Green Hill, in a boarding housß. An armed posse from Otterbein weut with the officers and surrounded the house. Kuhns put up an ugly fight but the breaking of his pistol lock the first time he fired prevented him doing much damage. Oae member of the posse was hit in the back, but not hurt. Kuhns got a pretty bad wound in the face. The officers did not know that they were on Kuhns’ track until after they had captured him. The two men were taken to Logansport, where Kuhns badly wounded a policeman, some weeks ago. A third man in the party escaped.
