STOLEN RIG RECOVERED
DRIVEN TO OGDEN FROM SALT LAKE BY THE THIEF

Yesterday afternoon Sheriff Layne received a telegram message from Salt Lake City advising him that a horse and buggy had been stolen down there and requesting him to look out for the rig. The outfit was taken from where it was tied by the parties who had driven it from home to a meeting they were attending and last night about 7:30 the thief drove up to Corey's livery stable with the property, and with the simple request that the horse be fed well lighted from the buggy and hurried down the street. The sheriff's office was notified but too late to get any trace of the fellow: and it being quite dark at the time, no accurate description could be given of the thief. This morning, however, Deputy Sheriff Joe Bailey got wind of a party who answered the faint description given of the man, but though he has been diligently searching, he has not succeeded in locating the guilty party.

CALL BOY INJURED
ROBERT GAULT LOSES A FINGER ON RIGHT HAND

Robert Gault, who for some time past has been a callboy at the Union Pacific yard office, came very near suffering a serious injury in the yard today through a piece of carelessness and meddling.

A freight train was being made up in the yard and he, regardless of the fact that he had no right to do so, went between two cars to manipulate an automatic coupler. He was unable to pull the pin out and got up on the buffers to make another trial. Just as he took hold of the chain the slack of the train was taken up and the chain straightened out clipping off the end of the middle finger of the right hand. He was immediately taken up town where his finger was dressed. He ran a narrow escape from losing his hand.

BURGLARS AT WORK
THEY ENTER THE ELECTRIC PLANING MILL LAST NIGHT

About $50 Worth of Carpenter's tools are taken
and later recovered at Stein's Second-Hand Store on 25th Street.

The electric planing mill on the corner of 24th and Wall was entered between the hours of six and eight last evening and about $50 worth of carpenter's tools, belonging to Mr. Avey were stolen. The thieves gained an entrance by forcing off a board over the chute from which the shavings are ejected and they carried off an iron mitre box, a hand saw, braces and bits, and some chisels and screw drivers, besides a number of valuable planes.

The burglary was not reported to the station until this morning and soon afterwards Officer Drown located the stolen articles at Stein's Second-Hand Store, near the corner of Lincoln and 25th street, where they had been pawned by the thieves. Mr. Avey was notified and, going to the store, identified the tools as belonging to him.

Mr. Stein said the man who sold him the articles was about 30 years of age, had a smoothly shaven face and wore a brown darby hat and coat. The same fellow had been in the store twice yesterday, having pawned a watch for $3 and later came and redeemed it.

Detective Pender and Officer Brown are working upon the clues thus furnished and expect to catch the culprit unless he has left town.
