Not Fictitious.

Our romance last week concerning
the bashful lover excited considerable
interest. Quite a number of people
think they know who is referred to, but
they do not all agree as to who the
parties are. Each neigh borhood set
ties upon some household. and in two
instances certain ladies were SO much
annoyed that they threatened to prose-
cute any who insinuate that the plot APP
plies to them and, demanded whether
the lobe-Republican scribe meant
them. We declined to give any infOr-
nation that would either condemn or
.eXhonorate any one, further than to say
the circumstances mentioned actually
occurred precisely as related. We have
testimony from different sources that
they really did, and any household in
which all these incidents did not occur
just as we related them may be assured
the article had no allusion thereto.

4 Remarkable Book.

In our home religious column we thi:
week publish part Of the preface to the
book, IF Christ Came to Chicago" We
do not publish this SO much to give OuI
readers an idea Of the contents of the book
as to show them what Christ's mission
really is on earth. VIM. Il. Stead, the
author, expresses our own views on this
matter better than we could tell them.
In saying ''who supped and made merry
with the wine bibbers'' the author doubt
less refers to the conception of the COM
mon people, rather than his own idea, be-
cause though Christ was often in compa-
ny with sinners, sometimes eating and
drinking at their tables. 1t is not record
ed that lie ever, in Il single instance,
made light, frivolous or TESTING remark.
Therefore, the expression ''made merry"
could not be applied to Him.
The book itself is not only truthful
mirror of great city, but it is full of
fresh. breezy sketches which show that

The blessing of having right ut your
door pond of living water, stocked with
fish, such as is our privilege in western
Kansas, can not be fully appreciated I'M
less you have been sick. Recently a
prominent citizen was sick. He could get
nothing to eat which would stay on his
stomach. His appetite craved fish, and
some was obtained ut one of the meat
markets, but, though sound, it did not
have that delicious flavor which one gets
by taking them alive and kicking to the
kitchen, fresh. from their native element.
Capt. j. II. Churchill Glanced to hear of
his condition, and took the trouble to
supply the old invalid's table from his
private pond. The fresh fish were eaten
with great relish. At once the old gentle
mans health began to mend, and now
he is hearty as ever. Another citizen was
pronounced incurable by friends. He
also got fresh supplies of fish from the
same source, began to mend, and is now
considered out of danger. Still another
similar case has come under our observa-
ton, and this week a consumptive has
begun to try the fish cure. He relishes
them. and is said to be gaining strength.
Any citizen with a windmill well or
waterworks hydrant can have a little fish
pond and take frying from the water
any morning for breakfast. The bright
sunshine and pure atmosphere of this
region is very favorable for the rapid
growth, and our sparkling water from
the great underground sea or river.
seems especially adapted to the good
health of piscatorial life.
Mr.. Russell Webb, an English convert
to Mohammedanism, and who is now q
missionary for that faith in this country,
was. we, believe. its only representative
at the Parliament of religions. He re-
ceived storm of 'shame" when he
attempted to vindicate polygamy before
that body. He then attempted to re-
trieve by saying that the Koran did not
justify polygamy nor religious persecu-
ten. He was driven from this refuge by

THIEVES IN A CAVE.
Den of an Organized Gang Un-
eartbed by the Police.
They Lived In Great Luxury in the
kearny Meadows.
Two Prisoners Taken and Stolen
Property Recovered.

KEARNY. y. j., June T.-The cave of
an organized band of thieves was dis
covered early this morning on the
Kcarny meadows, and two OF the gang
were arrested.
Last night chief Turnbull, OF the Kear-
ny police, was Informed by man who
had been walking along the railroad
track over the meadows that he had
seen party of men acting in suspi-
cious manner on the meadows.
At O'Clock this morning Chief Turn
bull, accompanied by officers Kirby and
Tierney, went t. the meadows, They had
not searched long before they located the
thieves cave. about one mile east of the
Arlington station.
AS the officers approached the place
three men attempted to escape. Two OF
them were captured. They described
themselves as Michael Keyley, of Jer-
sev city. and James Egan. of Newark.
The man who escaped is Charles
O'Brien. who Is known as the leader of
the gang
The officers after Handwriting the pris-
onerS, made II search of the cave, which
was about 30 feet square. and covered
over with heavy brush and bushes.
Descending TO the interior through an
opening large enough TO admit but one
man nj time. the officers found the
den fitted up in luxurious style. They
furniture was upholstered with velvet
and silk cushioned Couches were scat
tered about In profusion. Various articles
of stolen goods were found, as we'll as
a quantity of provisions.
chief Turnbull, leaving one OF his men
stationed at the cave, took the prisoners
to Police Headquarters In kearny.
There they were subjected to severe
questioning, but they declined to reveal
anything regarding the operations of
the gang They were locked up to await
an examination.

from Alderman Parks's House.

Parks's house at 345 West ThIrty-flrst
street. was resumed before the Police
Commissioners at IL o'clock this morn
ms.
The trial was begun week ago Mon
day. and was twice adjourned because
of the failure of Capt Price to produce
material witnesses. The most important
witness. William Stone, who. it is
claimed. leased the n ouse from Alderman
Parks, and his daughter Mrs. Thomp-
son, who was his housekeeper, mystic
riously disappeared Immediately after 1t
was positively proven that gambling had
been going on in the house. Subpoena
servers from Police Headquarters
secured the city without success for
some trace of either Stone or Mrs
Thompson.
Capt. Price insisted that he, too, had
exercised every power at his command
seemed TO have disappeared as com
pletely as Il the earth had opened and
swallowed them.
Another important witness is Abe
Hyman, who piloted Register Sullivan
to the house. Neither Capt Price nor
the detectives from Headquarters have
succeeded In locating him. The Com
missioners have had officers out for a
week hunting for some clue to his
whereabouts. but their efforts, according
TO their sworn statements, We're pro-
ductive of no better results than those
OF Capt. Price and his men.
Why any OF these witnesses should
run away Is, in the estimation OF the
Commissioners. n matter of very plain
inference. There was no intention to

All these drawbacks, however. will not
deter the lover of the sport of kings
from Witnessing one of the greatest OF
all sporting events, the Suburban.
That there is less interest In this
years Suburban than ever before seems
TO be a fact, for at 10 O'Clock this morn
ing not single person outside OF the
writer and the force of men and women
at work, was on the grand stand.
This Is certainly an extraordinary
thing, for in previous years at the same
hour in the morning, at least thou
sand persons We're on hand. watching
the horses gallop and securing good
places for observing the big race.
There We're not dozen strangers on
the track at 10 o'clock this morning and
the indications are that the jam and
crush of previous years will not occur
to-day. This does not alter the fact
that Il great race is to be run.

has field been so evenly matched.
