Nivens ; has been bound over to a prej liminary before Magistrate Beck- , ham at Rock Hill, under $300 bond, on the charge of knowing- ' ly disposing of stolen property. \ It seems that a valuable horse was stolen from Mr. J. H. Wil- \ son in Columbia about ten days ago, and in a few days Nivens ] bought the horse from a strange '' white man. It is alleged thatNivens, being ;1 i warned by friends that the horse !. had been stolen and that officers were searching for it, took the horse across the Catawba at ( night and disposed of it. At any ! rate, when the officers reached ; Nivens' store, in the upper part I of the township, he refused to j1 tell where the horse was or to ;' give any information about it, |: although it is said the owner j J offered to give him back the 1: cost of the horse. * The officers crossed the river and succeeded in finding the horse about 10 miles from j Nivens' store. They secured the horse and, returning to town, had Nivens arrested on ! the above charge. Horse Thieves Got Five Years.

They were brought back to Charlotte and held for trial. Messrs. W. L.
