Jesus Garcia, a Mexican of this city, who makes a living off of his cows, had sixteen calves in his pen one night about two weeks ago. In the morning they were all gone. Mr. Garcia hunted everywhere but could not find them. After several days eight of them came back, all burnt up with brands. The rest of them have not yet returned. The returning ones came to the Noel ranch on the Mangas looking as if they had been tied out somewhere for sev- eral days. It is thought that they were taken from the pen and driven into the Burros, close herded or tied out. It is hardly likely that they were driven a great distance. There will be a reckoning one of these fine days, and some of these thieves will steal no more.
