Seized Goods Taken From the Vaults of
tho Appraiser.
Collector Quinn has been robbed.
That is to say the Government has been
robbed almost directly under the resting
place of the Collector.
Last Monday night Deputy Collector OF
Internal Revenue while straying through
the seizure-room observed that door of
one of the vaults had been pried open
He entered, only to find that the 100 five-
tael cans of opium designated as yen shee
had been stolen.
The matter was reported to Mr.. Quinn,
who Immediately put two OF his men at
work to find out who committed the rob-
berry.
He detailed Deputy Borland and Bert NJ
Thompson to scour Chinatown for the
thieves.
The Investigations show that the rob cry
was committed on Friday or Saturday
night last, and though the perpetrators are
probably known the evidence is not yet
strong enough 70 warrant the disclosure of
their names.
Suspicion, however, points TO couple of
trusted employees. as no others had access
to the sezure-roOm.i
1t is quite probable that to-day arrests
will be made, and that the case will be
brought up for investigation.
This is the first instance in the history of
the Appraisers building that the vaults Of
the room has been robbed of goods that
have been seized by Government officials.
Ii is lntimated that those who committed
the deed were not Cinnamon, and therefore
IL may become good-sZed scandal, involv-
Ing some OF the old-tme servers.

John Elofson, Sailor, Badly Cut on the
Head.
John Eiofson was brought into the CITY
Prison last night about half past 10 with his
head badly cut and several severe bruises
about the face. With him was brought a
man who gave the name of Robert Smith,
who was charged with assault with deadly
weapon.
Elofson Is sailor on board the four
masted schooner Aloha, bound for Honolulu
tomorrow, and says he was on the way 10
the ship with two of his mates.
When they were nearing the corner of
Battery street and Broadway they were sud-
denly attacked from an alleyway by foot
pads, who, Eiofson says, as near as he could
remember, struck him with a sandbag.
He was somewhat dazed from the blow
given him and could not remember what be-
came OF his friends.
Smith, the man charged with the assault,
was caught by Officer Phil Mcmahon while
running away.
He claims that the three sailors pushed
him off the sidewalk and that he only
Knocked Elofson down with his fist and
then kicked him.
El0fson was not very badly hurt and was
taken to the city hospital for repairs.

The DANGERS OF DRINKING. WATER.-News
OF typhoid fever in Dublin and the large number
OF typhoid attacks In the Riviera among the
American and European travellers, attributed
Chiefly to polluted drinking water, had hardly
become familiar to the profession before 1t heard
that strenuous efforts were being made to re
move the evils of Chicago drinking water, and
more recently the reports about the dangers of
the drinkipg-water which Paris takes from the
river Seine have created alarm. in view of the
choleraic disturbances. All OF these circum.
stances have again directed attention 10 natural
mineral waters OF dletetic rather than medicinal
character. These diefetc waters, more generally
called liable waters" II pure, are OF great value
as byglenic agents. Travellers are those who are
oftenest exposed 10 The dangers OF the bad
drinking-water which the majority OF eommuni-
ties furnish. Therefore. they should as much as
possible confine themselves 10 the use OF we'll
known and admittedly pure table waters, and
this Is quite practicable. There Is at least one
such, the Apolllnars, which can be found every.
where. Where such waters cannot be obtained,
the ordinary drinking-water, IL the least suspi-
cion attaches to IT, should be boiled before using.

each other through three rounds for points.
