The latter with great show of learning and confidence of baffling the Carbondale countable, de manded to know whether the warrant was properly "backed." Instead of making a detailed explanation of the contents and "backing" of the war runt, the constable Informed Josephs that ho was also named In It. This took the sand all out of him and with fear and trembling he asked to be permitted to depart alone to svek bail. This the officer would not allow, and during the two hours hunt for a bonds man It seemed that the whole popu lation woh at their heels. Deputy AVrlght. took good core of Jacobs and Josephs while the constable arrested Berry In an outhouse near his home.
