About 12 o'clock the party broke up, each one voting that Mr. and Mrs. Ford were right hospitable entertainers, and that tbe occasion was one long to be remembered with pleasure b|Lall« ^ WHILE at Woodstock a week or two since we called on our old friend Geo.

THE horse thief, who escaped from tbe Woodstock jail last week was re­ captured by Detective Benthusen on Saturday last, on the Milwaukee A St. Paul road, near Montrose, and on Sun­ day morning was again safely lodged In the care of Sheriff Eckert. Tbe particulars as we understand them are these: After the escape of the prison­ er Sheriff Eckert sent for Detective Benthusen and put the matter lntb bis hands with orders to capture the pris­ oner st any cost. Benthusen very, soon got on bis trail and found that be was traveling nights and sleeping in bay stacks daytimes. Disguised as an old man he kept on his trail and on Saturday morning came upon bis man about three miles from Montrose, on the Milwaukee A St. Paul R. R, He was much surprised when Benthusen threw off his disguise, and was in­ clined to be ugly, but the muzzle of a revolver thrust under his nose soon brouirht him to time, wben he was ironed and started on his return to his old quarters In tbe Woodstock jail. This again demonstrates what we have several times before said, a criminal mlgbtas well try to avoid death as to escape from Benthusen when be once gets after blm. He might rightly be named the Lightning De­ tective. Great praise Is also due Sheriff Eckert for his efforts to recap­ ture the prisoner, giving Benthusen orders to spare neither time nor money to accomplish this end.
