KEEP A STRONG LOOK OUT.
Seventeen Sneak Thieves aa6 Geaeral all Aronnd
Robbers in Town.

The city is at present oyerrun with
nearly a score of the swiftest sneak thieves
and general all around robbers that ever
struck this part of the country There IS
no less than seventeen of them and they
represent every species of thieving from
cracking a safe to robbing man in shell
game. The most of them, however, are
sneaks who are professional house robbers
and yesterday alone not less than three
parties lost their purses while their houses
were unprotected. One woman down on
Fourth avenue lost over SIS while she left
house for few moments. In
speaking with a man last night who
knows the habits of this class of criminals
an EAGLE reporter ascertalned that this
band of thieves hare been working their
way toward Wichita for some time and
that they expec; ed to ind rich harvest
here, as the city has reputation among
professional thieves that 1t Is easily
worked. or at least that the chances of es-
Gaping are better than in the average city.
There go four of them now" said he, aad
four sleek-iooking strangers passed,
seemingly as unconcerned about being
watched as that many wooden
men would be- Il tell you this
gang is tough one. and they will set
fire 20 town, if necessary. in order
to accomplish their thieving schemes"
The police circles we're little agitated last
night over the appearance of these people
in town but up to a late hour no arrests
were made. The general opinion is that
several raids in houses would be made last
night but up till the hour of going to press
no job had been reported. In the mean
time it is considered not bad plan by
some to buy good revolver and be their
own policeman.

thrilling accident which was witnessed by
Mr.. J. D. Hutchings about ten years ago.
Thirty persons were precipitated into the
current of Pogues run, from a rickety
platform in the rear of an old building,
half of whom were ladies. Fourteen lives
were lost and the remaining sixteen were
carried through tunnel for COO feet by
the current All of these were saved. This
