HORSE-STEALING.
♦ Inspector Kibly, who was lately removed from Hamilton to Napier, has soon met with some Waikato celebrities. He had hardly taken up his residence in his new quarters when he met with the youths from Kihikihi, named Doyle, Kennedy and Howell, who, it will be remembered, were concerned in the Lander shooting case. As they had two horses in their possession, the Inspector wired to the Waikato police, enquiring if any horses were missing. Constable Brennan found that two horses answering the description were missing from Cambridge West, one having been taken from a paddock and the other off the run. He immediately communicated with Mi Kiely, and tho culprits are now in safe keeping. In January, Kennedy was sentenced to two month's imprisonment for assault at Te Awamutu, and had to find sureties for good behaviour for 12 months for using threatening language. There are also several previous convictions against him.
