The Sparrow Policeman.

He was a stout, ruddy-faced man with
n large yellow, curling mustache, says the
New York Erening Sun. His helmet was
pushed back upon his forehead and three
drops of sweat ran out from under his
helmet. slid suddenly down beside his
nose, and hid i'm his large yellow mus
tache.
As he stood Ticking his large leg with
his rattan switch, his shadow stretched
almost TO the city hall steps, and it lay as
motionless as the shadow of the city hall.
Two robins came u quickly from their
hiding in a tree close by. They flew down
upon the grass and talked together ami.
cably for n few moments. Then one
robin spied the flag end Of IN incautious
worm which had forgotten to crawl all i'm
the way. The robin leaped into the air,
and coming down sqYarely on both feet,
bounced in a serSs of diminuendo
hops, like a flat stone skipping on smooth
water, toward the In~suspecting worm.
The other robin saw the worm a moment
bounded toward the worm.
They reached the worm almost at the
same time. The first robin grabbed at
the unprotected flag end. but missed Il i'm
his haste. Then the other robin tried,
but as his head darted forward the worm
crawled comfortably under the sod. Then
the two robins broke INTO active recrimin-
alton, and the first robin gave the second
a savage dig in the back Of the head and
fiew away, whistling cheerfully.
The park policeman saw IL all. He
spoke aloud 4 himself.
"Begobs it's hot" he said.

AFTER SEVERAL DAYS
Discovery Of Z Burglary Committed
Some Time Last Week.
More Than Six Thousand Cigars and
a Quantity OF Liquor Stolen
From the Cellar Under
Foekett's Saloon.

Il has been discovered that a burglary
has been pcrpetrated In the saloon OF
Frank Foskett. When the burglary took
place In not known, as the thieves appar-
emily took particular pains TO v mp
their midnight intrusion as much rs possi-
BILE. but there are several reasons leading
TO the belief that II occurred last Wednes-
day night,or rather, early Thursday morn
ing between the hours Of 2 and 4:O'clock.
The goods stolen were nearly all taken
from the cellar Of the saloon and were
principally cigars, although n few bottles
of choice liquors were also stolen. How
an entrance was effected is not known,
as nothing was broken, nor were
any windows opened. II Is thought b
paddock Of the rear door leading directly
TO the cellar was unlocked with a skeleton
key. The inside door to the cellar is gem
orally kept locked after closing hours and
II is thought hat this was also opened
with a key, for some bottles of choice
brandy that are kept behind the bar were
found on n shelf In the cellar, where they
truders. They showed evidence OF having
been sampled. Nothing else had been
tempered with up stairs, which accounts
for b robbery not have been discovered
sooner
Mr.. King. the bartender, was on shift
Wednesday, uiknt anu closeu AT tic usual
hour, putting the cash i'm his pocket
and leaving the ''piano" open with no
money i'm il. As n rule the ''piano" which
contains the money has at least $40 I'm
change i'm il and is locked up. Had this
beer lone on that particular night, there
is but little doubt the machine would have
been broken open by the thieves In their
search for money and this evidence of the
robbery would have been noticed the fol-
lowing morning. A partly empty brandy
bottle lying on q shelf down stairs was
the first intimation Of the robbery, as the
bottle was n feature of the bar. having
beer there for some time. A query from
Mr.. King as 20 how IL came there, result
ed in the detection of the theft.
The goods stolen include more than six
thousand cigars and a small quantity of
liquor, In all representing between $500
and $500 worth Of stock. The cigars miss
ing are 300 Warmers "Spcckled Ha-
vanas," 800 "Don Daviso," 1,75O .C. b. 4
Co.." 300 corona DE Oro," 100 ala Caro-
lima" 1000 "Cuban Blossoms" 125
american Girl" and III l. Vida" The
case has been placed In the hands of the
police but owing 10 the lapse OF time be-
fore the discovery of the theft IL will be
difficult To get any clcw. Ii will be re-
membered that about ten days Y Mr..
Foskett's dog Tige was poisoned in a mys-
FERROUS manner, and il is thought that the
dog was gotten out OF h way for the pur-
pose of committing the burglary, as Tige
had always been kept chained directly I'm
tho rear of the saloon and was a good
watch dog.

Complaint that Second street should Re
cetve More Attention.
Considerable complaint is being made
nj the present condition OF Second street,
which at present seems to have more than
its rightful share of large stone and
boulders. A STANDARD reporters attcn-
ton vas called TO the fac by several
prominent citizens yesterday, who averrcd
that in their opinion the street should re-
ceive immediate attention. That the
thoroughfarc at present is i'm a d~eplorable
condition is certainly n fact, and driving
over the large stones which are SO plenti-
full is most annoying and disagreeable.
The street il IA beautiful boulevard, and
with proper care would soon he the most
popular driveway in the city. III the
street commissioner would place n couple
of mel on the street removing the stones
il would soon be in n most satisfactory
condition.

TO DIE IN ITS INFANCY
Butte's New Board Of Trade About to
Give Up the Ghost.
The Members Think II Would Not
DO Wise to Proceed 80 Long as
the Old Board 10 Still In Elk
iotonce and Kicking.
Bv the Standards Special Wire.

By the Standards Special Wire.
BUTTE, May 26.-It has been the talk
around to-day among members OF the
new board of trade that the field would
be vacated for the present i'm favor of the
old board. A member said to-day: 1--WE
will give them time TO die now sure
enough. We know they can't live, but
they are more likely to live with US in the
field as rivals than with us out of the way.
No action has been taken yet, but ! think
it likely that they will get out of the way"
The reporter went to see James b.
Leaby, the president Of the new
Of t tina. a Gentleman ans whether aa ! 'hi Il was
true that the project for q new
board was to he abandoned. ~ can't tell
you," said Mr.. Leahy, 'for ] don't know.
II Is for h members to decide on that
point. l will say, however, that the reor-
ganization OF the old board as effected
Saturday night, and the consequent prob
able retirement of the new board, is a
terrible hard blow at Butte's prosperity.
Ii Is the worst thing that ever happened
to Butte. We were all ready to go ahead
and do many things for the city. We
would have put up, within 100 days, a
will the result be now? The city will be
worse of than before. The new board
will probably be abandoned and the
old board will soon relapse into its old
state of innocuous desuetlde. There are,
of course, members of the old board who
IL chosen its officers, would have made
the board a success. Blu with the presi-
dent and secretary selected last Saturday
night IL will surely be a failure. Mr.. Bar
ret as president has already antagonized
the members of the new board of trade SO
that they will not join his board under
any consideration. II the business men
of Butte do not unite i'm a board of trade
there IL no use in having one. The old
n will be SO unpopular that il can
accomplish nothing. Then the fact
that the secretary is q man who is en-
gagged I'm the zeal estate and mining bust
ness himself, is sufficient to cause jeal-
ousy among all others in a similar bust
ness. The old board might have selected
a president AMI secretary who would have
healed the differences and made the
board popular and q success. As il IL.
matters are worse than ever"
The members of the old board declare
their intention Of meeting the public's
wishes on every subject hat comes up.
The matter of a board of trade building is
being considered by the committee, and
they are looking around for a site. II is
stated that the board is negotiating for
the central school site i'm West Broadway.
