Mighton was undep arrest there, they understood he was wanted in Canada and if so, send for him, signed by a Chicago Police Official. Our constable at once wired to County Constable Cook of Ceylon who wired to Chicago that he was coming and accordâ€" ingly on Tuesday of this week, Cook and his prisoner arrived in Durham, he was locked up for the night and on Wednesday he went to Owen Sound in charge of his captor. It will still be remembered that almost two years ago, Mighton, in his treatment of wife and family and in other ways, brought himself under the law and manâ€" aged to evade capture. Not long after a wire from Winnipeg informed authorities here that he had been spotted there. Constable Cook went west, secured his man, handcuffed him, but somewhere in Northern Ontario wilds, he jumped from the car among the snow and that was the last seen or heard of him till the teleâ€" gram came Constable Cook, no doubt said, "now my man, you won‘t escape me this time." He will likely stand his trial at next assizes on several counts. There is a suppositiou abroad that tirâ€" ing of the hunted life, he made his name and deed known to the Chicago police, Another case of the effectiveness of the "Long Arm of the Law."
