BOLD SPOKANE THIEVES,
Two Prominent Gam bling
Places Looted by Them
Within a Week.
So CleVerly Were the Thefts Com
mitted That No Captures
Have Been Made.

SPOKANE, WASH, Sept pa little
after o'clock in the afternoon two masked
men walked into the. mbling-rooms of
the Leroi saloon and presenting revolvers
demanded the money from the tills of the
gambling-tables. The usual large Satur-
day night crowd had but just left and
there was no one in the room except a
couple of faro dealers who were preparing
to close the rooms. They made no re-
sistance. and the men very coolly took
everything in sight, even to the nickels
and dimes, and backed out of the door, GO
ting down the side of the stairway.
The matter was at once reported to the
police, but as yet there is absolutely no
clue to the robbers.
This is the second robbery that has &C.
Cured in gambling-house during the
week. Just a week ago a young man
walked into Ceur d'Alene gambling
rooms, and although the room was crowded
with players, it being early in the evening,
he crowded in back of the faro-dealers and
in sight of the dealer, lookout and all the
players, reached in the money-drawer,
took roll of bills and disappeared down
the stairway before any one could stop
him. He has not yet been apprehended.

draped with pink muslin. At the line of
the footlights were palms and flowers and
on each side there peered out miniature
bears, emblematic of California. The
speakers stand was covered with the
American standard and in front of it was
the American shield, surmounted by an
outspread eagle, flanked on each side with
small flags. Over the organ there ap-
peared in letters of gold: Welcome
Supreme President W. A. P. Az, The
shield of California hung to the left of the
organist, and on the right was a fac simile
of the State seal of Michigan. The balcony
rail was draped in red and blue festooned
muslin and fastened to it were American

LAND IN PHILADELPHIA
Leased by an Ancestor for a
Period of Ninety-Nine
Years.
FORTY YEARS RENTAL UNPAID.
The Lease Has Now Expired and
the Property Is Part of the
Great City.

PORTLAND, Or, Sept. oh. W. Gil
bingham, living on a ranch in the Coast
Mountains, west of McMinnville, has rea-
son to consider himself lucky man. Last
week he received letter from brother
residing in OHIO making it plain that in
the course of short time, together with
several other heirs of Daniel Pegg, he is
likely to come into possession OF a large
fortune.
In 1893 Daniel Pegg leased thirty-four
acres of land to the city of Philadelphia for
term of ninety-nine years. The land was
subsequently parceled out, subject TO this
lease, as the records are said to show, and
in time became part of the great city.
For forty years no lease money has been
paid, and aside from the property itself
there is large claim for rent against the
city.
Mr.. Giliingham says he heard his mother
speak of this lease, but had no knowledge
of it beyond the fact that it was for SO
years and that seemed so long and indefin-
tie period that he never bothered his
brains much about it. He will shortly
leave for Philadelphia to accelerate pro-
ceedings in the matter.

welded ON A STEAMER,
A Former Japanese Consul
Married to a White and
Pretty Lady.
as to the Identity of the
Bride.

SAN DIEGO, Call, Sept. 22.-Passengers
on the steamer Mexico, which called at
Redondo to-day, en- route to this port, no.
ticed couple who came on board whose
actions showed that they were either newly
married or about to enter the blessed
state. The man was Japanese, about
middle height, good-looking and very in
telligent. The woman was taller than he,
dark and evidently mistress of herself and
him.
They did not mix with the other passen-
gers, but seemed to have urgent business
with Captain Hall. In the interview ii
was noticed that Captain Hall shook his
head decidedly and that both the man and
the woman seemed to be urging him to do
something he did not want to do.
Finally, after shaking his head more
vigorously than before, the couple de-
sisted and with long faces went and sat
apart. She was almost crying and he APP
peared to be in mood for swearing a long
and strong oath in his native tongue.
Then, however, a change came over Cap
tain Hall. who had been quietly talking to
several passengers. He went to the couple
and said few words which had magical
effect. The woman jumped up and down
and her swarthy lover grinned and shook
Captain Halls hand. Then they went
into his cabin and the purser and one or
two others casually sauntered in. There
Captain Hall fshed out copy of the mar
rage ceremony which has done yeoman
service before in uniting yearning hearts
on the briny deep.
The man at the wheel had some intima-
ton of what was coming as he gently
swung the wheel around and swerved the
vessels nose seward, rapidly passing,
beyond all question, the tbree-mile limit.
Then, the tall and happy bride, resting her
hand in the yellow palm of her lover,
Captain Hall spoke tie words that made
them one. The Mexico then turned toward
Point Iona and steered into port an hour
later.
An effort was made to keep the story
quiet, but the passengers told all they
knew as soon as they reached shore.
They did not know all the particulars
and the officers of the boat refuse to talk.
The happy groom is George S. Matz-
mura, prominent Japanese graduate of
Harvard and former Consul to this coun-
try from Japan. His brides name is I'M
known, but it was learned that she had
been governess for the niece of Mrs. Le-
land Stanford.
Matzmura had applied at Los Angeles
for license some days ago and was re-
fused, the law prohibiting marriage be-
tween whites and Mongolians.

desert country and has never been estab-
lished, and recently valuable discoveries of
gold bearing quartz mines have been
made, and in many instances it is not
known in which county the property is To-
Gated.
For the purpose of assessment it is
necessary to know this, as well as for
other important reasons, one of which has
developed within few days by the COM
mencement of several lawsuits against the
rich Desert Queen mine. The uncertainty
of the location of the mine made it neces-
sary to file suits in both counties.
1t is not expected that the line will be
run out to the State line this time, but 1T
will be run far enough east from Banning
to reach beyond the territory of active
mining operations.
