A Trio OF Men who swore Thoir Votes
In Arrested.
With the exception OF K. I. Clifton,
W. A. McAllister and j. 7. Morris. who.
after being challenged. insisted on
swearing their votes in, no arrests were
made around the polling places in the

voted at the Eleventh precinct in the

suspected list and one of them, Clifton.
even admits that he failed to pay any at
tention to citation iseued by the super
visors. He claims that in registering
from the Voss house he registered from
his home, as he had stopped there off

months ago. McAllister and Morris
registered from the rear Of 1261a North
Los Angeles street. Morris has little to
say, while McAllister claimed to occupy
. small room in Cosgrove & Watson's
saloon. The arrests were made in each
instance by deputy conetables.
Last evening the officers concluded
they could not make cases against
Clifton, McAllister and Morris. and in
consequence they were discharged from

 ''I had isa assistant at the time who lived on the outskirts of Allegheny City, at one of those little summer places. There was a telegraph office at the place, and at once telegraphed him to be on the lookout for the men, and that would see him in the morn ing At the same time I took another route so as to cover as much ground as possible The details of my assistants movements that night gathered from him two years later in the Cook county jail. Chicago.
 ''lt seems that he was in the tele- graph office when my message was re- ceived, and in few minutes was on his way toward the river. 1t was pitch dark, but he kept on until he reached a point in the road that led through a considerable stretch of woodland. He had stopped to take his bearings when he heard a wagon coming up the road at furious rate of epcod. He left the read and sought refuge behind q good sized tree. Th0wagon came mp and passed on but only about dozen yards. He made out the forms of five men as the wagon went by, and he was in the set of following them when the wagon stopped Again he darted back into the t1.. T proved to be, lug out a good-slzed box and drag it into tho woodsq Hastily digging hole they buried the box, and, after marking several surrounding trees, hurried back to the wagon and continued their rapid driving toward the city.
 My assistant, after assuring himself that the men were well out of the way, hastily dug that box up and loaded him. self with currency. On reaching homo he found he had something like seven teen thousand dollars, and the temp tation was too strong for him. He de- .cided to keep it. He lived in his old home for nearly a year, and was shrewd enough not to use any of tho money Then he left for Chicago and shortly afterward bought quite a farm in southern Illinois. About the same time I arrested man for breaking into freight car.
 ''This fellow was far gone with con, sumption and l took him to the hos-' pital There he confessed to me that he was member of the gang that had held up the express messenger year and half before, and the result of the burying of tho treasure in the woods. I went out on the road and found the telegraph operator, who told me of the quick delivery of the message I had sent. put two and two together and decided to follow up my assistant.

 When Mir and Mrs. Barnes returned from their wedding journey, they found the mahogany bed already estab- lished in their flat. They knew it was there because they unable to open the parlor door. The bed was inside, and there was an alley foot wide all the way around it, between it and the wall.

The adventures of the Wan dering Jew are mere stroll compared to those of the flat-hunter in New York. Jack was looking for bed room big enough to hold the ma hogany bedstead. He tells me that this piece of furniture was so big that he could hardly carry memorandum of its dimensions in his largest overcoat pocket.
 Anybody who has ever undertaken similar task will know that nothing can lie so shamef..lly as a foot rule. Jack found flat at last which would accommodate that bedstead He cal culated that it would just cover the floor of the bedroom, and that, by re- moving door between this room and the next it would be possible to retire to rest by climbing over the hand somely carved footboard. The rent of this flat was sixty dollars. It would be impossible to secure larger bed room under seventy-tive dollars, and the young couple decided that they would try the experiment.

THOUGHTS FOR THURSDAY.
Howard Fielding Expounds a
 Che erful Doctrine.
Thanksgiving VIII Be A Legal Hoiiday In New York, Even If Yale and Prlnce- ton Don't Play Football and
 Cripple Each Other.
lcoPYRIGHT. ise4.l

Jerry, managing editor of the ele- vator department of the New York Tribune, told me that a pretty type writer girl had recently asked him whether Thanksgiving day would be legal holiday this year if Yale and Princeton didn't play football. I be- lieve this story because l know that the girls always ask Jerry when they want to find out anything. It is easier and much pleasanter for them to ride up and down once in his car than to consult an encyclopedia He answered the typewriter girl with his customary judicial accuracy, that the holiday would probably be much more legal on that account, especially in the matter of excise violations on the previous night. He admitted, however, to me, privately, that this fact could have lit tie interest for a blonde young lady who desired only a chance to oAcarry . 5,de flag and have brother in Yale, for one day in the year.
 In spite of the loss of the game, there will be as much genuine Thanks giving in New York as ever before. In other parts of the country there is
