Transaction.

Yesterdays Meeting of the Police
Commission and Its Weighty
Transaction.
The police commission met yesterday
afternoon, with Acting-Mayor Johnson
in the chair. The monthly budget of
miscellaneous bills, amounting to ST.
409.57, was passed upon. and the matter
of investigating charges of assault pre-
ferred against Officer c. V. Gustafson,
of the South station, by c. A. Burnes.
was laid over until next week.
Orders were issued to the captains
of the various stations regarding the de-
tail of two men each day for the might
reserve" at the central station. -
Charles IA. Woods was appointed
special policeman at the Murphy club
rooms. -
Two designations were received and
accepted, one of them being that of Ole
Aderson, of the North station, who
gave no reason for resigning. but who
is said to be aggrieved over his transfer
from duty at the railroad crossing on
Fourth avenue north and Washington.
where he had been on duty for some
time. The other officer who severed
his connection with the force was John
L SOliotlIs VI tuC SOulu Ii, WHO
stated that he had been offered posi-
ton more agreeable to his tastes. That
statement, however, covers a mares
nest connected with the famous re-
ligious war which has caused so much
trouble in south town police circles.
Several minor charges against Col
lom are now in the hands of the
board, and it was understood that this
was what led to his resignation. and it
was, in way: but Coll0m claims that
the real reason was what lies behind
these charges. He says that Third
precinct police official of high rank.
whose connection with the anti-Catholic
movement has been more than sus-
pected for some time, approached him
some months ago with a proposition to
become member of the anti-Catholic
society. and gave him to understand
that unless he did so his services as an
officer of the law could be dispensed
with. He, COLON, refused to entertain
the proposition, and since that time

and the MethOdists Banquet.
The topic of discussion atthe meeting
of the Presbyterian ministers was the
church catechisms. 1t was the general
opinion that the ministers of the church
should use every means in their power
to have it studied. A few points in the
catechism were thought to be capable
of improvement. S. g. Anderson, a st.
Paul divine who is on the eve of leaving
that city for the Westminster church of
Toledo, O., was guest OF the ministers
and being called in, addressed the meet
ing. Rev. G. H. lillian. of Marsonan,
Turkey, also spoke briefly. The minis
tiers elected j. B. Donaldson president.
and A. B. Nichols secretary of their
session.
DR.. McKaig was absent from the
meeting of the Methodist divines, and
as his paper was to be the topic of dis
cussion the gentlemen had to fall back
ON whatever topics came to hand. They
talked of banQueta at West hotel during
May state meetings. but the sentiment
was decidedly against it.

WHAT 1T WAS.
Explanation of Last Nights Com

motion on Hennepin Avenue.
While the boarders at the Brigham
house, opposite the West hotel, were
sitting in the parlor early last evening
two sneak thieves entered the hallway,
snatched two overcoats and valise and
departed. About thirteen young men
started hatless and coatless in an enthu-
siastie and spirited pursuit. Up Henne-
pin avenue they went in a long waver-
ing line. which continually grew by the
addition of people who joined in the
chase, and at Sixth street, where
the thieves dropped their ''swag,"
and the chase was abandoned. There
were at least 200 people standing about
and asking excitedly of the triumphant
boarders what twas the matters" "who
was that fellow?" and other intelligent
and searching questions.

Mr.. Osborne finds Abilene the best sit.
uated place in Central Kansas for q
branch of their large establishment and
will give Abilene a new business house
which will add to its Importance as
we'll as give our people cheaper oil and
gasoline.
This will also be the distributing

Tuesday Sheriff Nall and his depu.

half-dozen prisoners who were sen.
fenced at the last term of court to i'm.
prisonment in the penitentiary. The
party consisted chiefly of TIE members
of the Blalock gang, who are making
their second trip over the road. II
will be remembered that they were
taken to the ''pen" last summer and
were released on account of the Su.
preme court deciding that they must
have new trial. Then they pleaded
guilty. Those taken down today were
Henry Kreinhop, Hiram Johnson
Martin Thomas and John Jacobs. In
the party were also Jones, the bigam
list, and Reid, the horse thief.
The prisoners were handcuffed to.

good spirits. None of them except
johnson stay over four years and as
they are all comparatively young men
they can well have good hope of again
breathing the free air.
