The truthfulness of the scriptural
statement, "the wicked flee when no
man pursuotb," was verified at Davis,
West Va., last week when Sheriff
Burns was in that town on his chase
after the horse thieves. Sheriff was
sitting In front of a hotel when he saw
a man from this section, whom he was
acquainted with, walking up the other
side ot the street. Sheriff said,
"hello!" waved his hand and got up to
cross the street, to talk with him, but
the man said, "Oh no, you don't!" and
run down the street as fast as he could
go. The sheriff don't even know what
offense the follow Is guilty of.
The following Reynoldsville people
were out on the huckleberry mountains
in Clearfield county last week picking
berries: E. T. MoGaw, Henry Delble,

HOW SHERIFF BURNS CAPTURED
A PAIR OF HORSE THIEVES.
Pursued Them Day and Night fur a
Week On Foot, by Buggy, by Tram
Thrilling Leap From a Train.
Mondny noon Sheriff Ed. C Burns ar
rived In Brookvillu with tho pair of
horse thieves, John Henry Burgen and
Joseph Branmls, whom ho had chased a
week before capturing them. The edi
tor of Til K St All found Sheriff Burns
In his ollloe Mondny afternoon and from
him wo got the following facts concern
ing tho chase and capture of the
thieves.
On Saturday, lllth Inst., while nil the
citi.en of Punxsutawnoy were interest
ed In the departure of Co. L, Burgen
and Branuns iitolo a horse and buggy
out of a shed. The rig belonged to a
farmer named Mcllwaliie, who had
driven to town to see the soldier boy
depart. Tho theft was reHirted to
Sheriff Burns and that evening tlio
sheriff started after tho thieves, but it
was not until Sunday afternoon that he
got onto the right trail of the fugitives.
They had driven to Adrian, then to
Eleanora. then to Big Run and from
there to Bell's Mills, thence to MeGccs,
on the Susqticlitiniiu river. The thieve
did not take a direct route nt any time,
but kept, winding around for tlie pur
pose of throwing their puivmrs off
tho trail. From MeCees they Med
to Coalport, Hastings, Carl town, Indi
ana county. Then they crossed tho
main line of the Pennsylvania railroad,
near Ploasiyitvlllo tunnel, to Elliott
nnd to Sculp Level. At this point
Sheriff Burns lost the trail and lieforo
ho regained it the fugitives had two
days' start of him. From Scalp Level
the parties tisik to the mountains,
bringing up nt Mil ford. pu. From
Bedford they drove into Maryland nnd
took down the Cumberland Valley. At
Frostbiirg. Md., they traded the' stolen
horse und buggy for another horse nnd
road wagon, and the wagon they traded
later for a cart. Then they 'made a
dicker with a baud of gypsies by which
they secured a pony. From Frostbiirg
Sheriff chased the fugitives through
Piedmont, Keyser, Lemon, Gorman and
other West Vu. towns, and during that
ebuse they traded tho cart for a watch,
sold the harness furJK.OO and also sold
tho pony, but tho sheriff did not leurn
what they got for tho pony. Sheriff
chased them from Piedmont to Davis
and back to Piedmont, on freight trains
and about daylight Suturday morning,
after one week's chase, bo captured
Burgen in the mountains in Maryland,
ucross tho river from Piedmont, ufter a
thrilling experience.
Sheriff Burns got on un early passen
ger train at Piedmont Saturduy morning
and stood on tho ships to look fiir Burgen
along the railroad. At the lower end
of the yard, when the train was running
almost at full spoed, Sheriff suw Burgen
sitting near some freight cars and ho
leaped off the train, Burgen saw the
sheriff jump and ho run under tho cars
and took across tho river for the moun
tains on the Maryland side, with the
sheriff in pursuit. Burgen had theleud
nnd was a better runner than the lusty
sheriff, but when they began to ascend
the mountains tho officer made good uso
of his revolver, and after ono ball had
torn a hole in Burgen's coat and fanned
his backbone and another ono grazed
his stomach, us tho fugitive turned to
see if the sheriff was gaining on him,
then Burgen know that Sheriff Burns
was in earnest, and ho surrendered.
Sheriff returned to i'iedmont with
Burgen and as he came to a short turn
in tho street, he found Branmls sitting
there and he grubbed him heforo tlie
fellow even could think of running.
Sheriff Burns arrived in Pittsburg Sat
urday night with his prisoners and had
to remain there over Sunday.
When tho men were enptured Burgen
had 25 cents and Branmis had 10 cents.
They had sold everything saleable und
spent the money for whisky. Burgen
said ho hud sold his revolver a couple
of days before Shoriff Burns captured
hi in or he would have shot at the sher
iff on thr. mountain. During tho chase
those two men stole all they had to oat
and stole oats for tho horse. , They
caught and killed a pig on the moun
tains. At one place they awakened a
man at five o'clock in the morning and
asked him for a chew of tobacco.
Sheriff Burns was not in bed from
Wednesday until Saturday night, and
the morning ho captured the thieves ho
had not had anything to eat for almost
twenty-four hours. Ho destroyed a suit
of clothes in tho chase up tho mountuln
after Burgen and skinned his shins
badly. Sheriff hud to buy new clothing
to wear home. Hu spent over $100.00
in telegraphing and telephoning, hiring
rigs and men to assist in the chase
after the fugitives.
Sheriff Burns certainly deserves
great credit for persevering in the
chase until he captured this pair of
horse thieves. They are both bad men
and have boon In the clutches of the
law before.
Fell Against Stoye. '
On last Saturday evening John, young
son of Martin McCarty, who Is just old
enough to run around through the
house, fell against a stove and received
a cut above his eye which bled so pro
fusely that the child's clothing and the
carpet where he fell were saturated
with blood. A physician was hurriedly
sent for, but before he arrived the flow
of blood had stopped and it was found
that the injury was not as serious as
was at first believed.
Injured in Railroad Wreck.
J. F. Hlnderliter, a conductor on the
R. St F. C. R'y, had his left arm dis
located at shoulder and a small bone of
the same arm broken at elbow yester
day afternoon at the mines near Falls
Creek. Three or four cars were wreck
ed and "Josh" was on one of the cars
when it jumped the track.
