"THE YOUNG MAN IN BLUE.v
The boss Boarding House Thief Run
Down and Captured at Last.

The boss boarding house thief, who has been
puzzling tho detectives and police for about
two months, came to grief yesterday. de.
scription OF him had been furnished the police
by his numerous victims, and every policeman
in the western section OF the city has been on
the lookout for "tho young man dressed In
blue"
His lengthy career is attributed to the sys-
tematlc way In which he operated. His plan
was to secure rooms In respectable family
and pay for them In advance and stay until he
located the valuables and got or with them.
He always had rooms engaged in q new place
before he left the old one, and making 1t q rule
10 stay indoors during the day, he was not ex-
posed on the street much, and consequently
didn't give the police many "polnters" on
him.
The last haul he made was 800 from the
house OF Mrs. Mary Bowman, I'LL X street.
Some OF his other victims are Mrs. O'Brien,
1911 street; Mrs. NJ. Il. Ball, 800 f street I;
Ephraim j. Story, Gil Thirteenth street; Mrs.
Cunningham, Oil Eleventh street, and Mrs.
Holllnger, 1103 X street. He also robbed
Joseph Ennis and Bun Bryans restaurant and
George II. Martin at Bells International.
Detectives Ran and Carter yesterday went
10 every house In tho West End where rooms
were for rent, making inquiries for him, and
were told at Mrs. Phillips, OIL New York ave.
nue. that such person had room there.
The officers watched all day until he ro-
turned from an excursion TO Mt. Vernon, and
put him under arrest. He would have secured
about $500 hero II he had not been arrested.

Mr., Keene's failure was the principal topic
last night. Large blocks OF stock for his &C
count were thrown upon the market by his
brokers, who held them In hand, causing the
decline noticed after the delivery hour.
A conservative broker, speaking OF the gem
eral situation, said 81 think the rally during
the earlier hours yesterday was an entirely
natural one, In view OF the over-soid condition
OF the market, and prices would have held
had IL not been for the suspension Of Mr..
Keene, which caused a feeling OF uncertainty,

ITS CAUSE AND CURE.
BY AN ENGLISH PHYSICIANS.

This painful malady was formerly
considered to be entirely the result
of age, cold or exposure, but medical
science has now demonstrated that
it is disease in the blood, which
may be inherited in so dangerous q
form as to cause death in youth OK
middle age, and even in infancy.
That the enemy courses through the
veins, mixed in life fluid, in a LIQUID
form for a certain length of time:
that it gradually, through variety
of causes, becomes partially sondi-
fed into a sort of clayey substance
This accommodating in the joints OF
the fingers. toes and limbs, becomes
an obstruction to the circulation, and
in time stiffens the joints, causing
in many instances great pain and
suffering. 1t also materially affects,
the healthy action of the vital Or
gans, interfering with the heart, the
stomach and the kidneys. q rem
edY such as that known as Britannia
is the best that can be taken to re-
move the disease, and to give the,
proper tone to all parts of the sys--
TEN. No external application can
remove rheumatism. Patients who
use various oils, lotions and lini-
ments, are dying every day from
this disease. But no one has yet
died of rheumatism to my know
ledge who used Britannia, even
when the disease was so far advan-
ced as to cause complete prostra-
ton. This valuable family medi-
cine can De be obtained at lions
