Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1893-09-14

A NEW baby was born at the
White House last Saturday-anoth-
err daughter. The daily papers have
since contained column after column
of slush about the baby, it's mother
and it's father. At the same time,
no doubt, thousands of other little
ones were born-many in novels,
where Poverty reigns supreme
many to parents who, until lately,
were able to provide for their little
ones, but now without food or shell
ter. These babies are just as dear
to the hearts of their parents, and
are Just as sweet and pretty as is
the White House baby. But, alas !!
the difference between them The
father of the White House baby is
now doing all in his power to make
it still more-aye, impossible-for
the other babies fathers to feed and
cIothe and shelter them ? Do these
things look just right? Don't it
seem like there's injustice some
where p? Isn't this kind of thing
overdone? Isn't there danger that

The Toledo Blade thinks that,
had Harrison had the opportunity,
he would have vetoed free silver
bill, and, in that case, he would
have been reelected president. We
believe the Blade is right {; and this
il more evidence that the financial
question is first, and that the politi-
clans are simply tools Of Wall street.

What might have resulted In a
serious confiagration was discovered in
the store building at 1893 Elk street
Yesterday afternoon at about $3.50
o'clock. The building Is owned by A.
T.. WOOlard aud occupied by Asher d
Bennett az an abstract and real estate
office. Mr.. Bennett discovered the
blaze before IL had made great head
way and by vigorous work confined IL
until the fire department arrived. The
books and papers Of the abstract office
had meanwhile been taken out aud
carried across the street into the Slade
building, and az soon as stream Of
water was turned on the fire IL was ex.
tiDguished with no greater damage
thnn the destruction of the roof, which
will not amount TO $3.50 at the highest
estimate. There was no insurance on
the building, and great credit IL due
the fire department for their prompt
response ard vigorous work In the ice
aud snow, where every particle Of water
froze wherever 1t struck. Had the fire
gained little more headway, with the
high wind blowing at the time, the
whole block Of buildings between
Chestnut and Laurel streets would
have been consumed The cause OF
the fire Is assigned TO an overheated
pipe and defective connections with
the chimney.

100 CLEVER With YHE PEN
Tacoma FOrger Enticed Over the b.
c. Line and Arrested
ELECTRIC CARS BLoCKADED
Fire Department to the Rescue in New
Whatcom-Fairhaven Lady Sup
porting Judge Turner

A clever capture Of a much wanted
fugitive from justice was made in New
Whatcom, Saturday afternoon, by Dep
uty Sheriff Conlin assisted by Tacoma
detective who had enticed the man
across the line from British Columbia.
Several months ago young English
man named Burt Widlake, in the em-
pIoy Of the Northern Pacific railroad at
Tacoma, committed foTgeries by which
he came into possession Of several
thousand dollars Of the company's
money, which he squandered IA is Gus
tomary in such cases, upon wine and
fast women. The forgeries came to the
notice Of the cOmpany's officials and
detectives were put ON the search to
ascertain who had committed them.
Detective James Thurston soon located
a house where this young Englishman
had, in one night, paid for $500 worth
of Champagne for the girls, and from
this clew was certain ne was on the
track Of the right man, but found he
had already departed for parts un-
known. BY a series Of attentions to
the woman who appears to have been
Wihlake's most intimate friend the de-
tective was able to obtain her conf.
dence and from her ascertained the
whereabouts of her departed lover, who
was then In British Columbia and to
this place the detective made his way.
Playing the part Of great sufferer
from rheumatism in search Of better
health, Thurston soon made the ac-
quaintance of his victim and later
played the part of an Interested adviser
and suggested that Widlake leave his
present employment for a better posi-
lion which the detective could secure
for him at Chicago, and upon an
agreement being reached the detective
left to go to Seattle on busi-
ness and secure the necessary
passes for his friend, agreeing to
meet him here on Friday last and ac-
company him East. The detective
came to this city and awaited the com
ing Of his victim, meanwhile enlisting
| the assistance Of the sheriff and the
county attorney, that no delays might
be met with in placing his young
| friend in the better position he had
prOnllseu.
Saturday the man he wanted reached
New Whatcom, coming in over the
Great Northern, instead Of the Belling-
ham Bay Il British Columbia, a.
Thurston had expected. The detective
went To Sumas Saturday morning 10
welcome his young friend into the
United States, but as he did not come
was compelled to return quite disap.
pointed, and a visit made to the Great
Northern train, at the junction, being
no more successful, he gave up the
search for time, certain that his vic
tim had failed TO keep his promise
Later in the day, while on Thirteenth
street in company with the deputy
sheriff, the much wanted man, who
] had left the Great Northern train al
the depot, was met and placed under
arrest. He was lodged for the night In
the county Jail, and Sunday left with
Thurston and Deputy Coluin for Ia.
coma on the midday train, where he
will stand trial for his crimes.
