Crow while the family was temporarily absent and appropriated $3.85 in cash which Mrs. Crow bad in her pocketbook in a bureau drawer. Policeman McQuitty in making his rounds of the streets of Rich Hill was shot at by an unknown per- son Monday morning about 1:30 o'clock. The officer returned the compliment, but no barm was done.

True, the evi- dence against him was strong and circumstances taken in connection with his manner at the time of the tragedy was strongly against him and under the evidence the yerdict of the jury was generally endorsed by the people.
