Monday evening a young man in neat but not gaudy plumage, with dark hair and a mustache that had evidently been much puzzl'ed to select a color, entered the barn of Dr. Dell and introduced himself as a horseman. As the doctor did not equire proofs on a little matter like hat, the stranger was allowed to walk about and gaze at the stock, íe was quite "horsey in his converse" and when finally the doctor went to his supper the stranger and he barnman were left together, and when the former went out to look after a pony the stranger aróse, tretched his legs and strolled into he office and out again and in a ittle while departed - not with haste or unseemliness, but with such moderate progress as a man of leisure might make with dignity. Nevertheless the barnman had not liked he stranger's visit to the office and on relating the circumstance to Dr. Dell was told to return to the office and see if the medical watch in the medical vest in the office was still here. It was not there! The thief had taken "time" by the chain and ransferred it to his own pocket. He was traced to the Ann Arbor depot, but has not since been seen n the city. For coolness and deiberation this watchthief is "a stemwinder."
