SOCIALISTIC REFORMERS
Novel Idea of q Handful of Men in
Ohio

Novel Idea of a Handful of Men In
Ohio
CLEVELAND, o., March 2O.-A hand
full of socialists and populistic reformers
have begun the formation of the work
house club. The idea is to obtain as
members all the unemployed workmen
and begin operations at the opening of
out-of-door work in the spring. 1t is de-
clared that they will first march in body
to the city hall and demand of the director
of public works that he give them en-
ployment. If he says he is not able to do
SO, which they anticipate, they propose
marching in body to the police court
and request the Judge to send them to the
workhouse, that they may have work and
food, clothing and lodging. If the Judge
refuses. which they consider probable,
they declare they will deliberately violate
some city ordinance in order to be arrested
and sent to the workhouse, probably by
trampling on the grass in the public
square or taking possession of a freight
train. One of the men back of the scheme
is Robert Bandlow of the Central Labor
Union. N.-

battle in Lima three days. The attack by
rebels began Sunday morning. The rebels
were commanded by Chief Pierola, assist
ed by Durane, Ore and others. All COM
munication with Lima is cut off, and it
is impossible to learn the strength of
either party. There was heavy cannon,
ade and musketry fire on Sunday and
Monday Two distinct explosions were
heard on Monday. There was a renewal
of firing Tuesday morning and it contin-
ued six hours. 1t is reported firing then
ceased so as to permit the contending
forces to care for the dead and wounded.
From one source it is reported President
Caceres holds the palace. the principal
plaza and exposition square. 1t is also
reported he closed all the avenues of ap-
proach to the city with armed forces.
There is another report that detach-
msnt of rebels entered the city and is
hemmed in by government troops. The

Inducements. The rebel loss is tNirty-

SAN FRANCISCO, March 2O.-On a
corner of Van Ness avenue and Geary

men boarders and dodgers only. 1t is not

gagged, and just at soon as the carpenters

NewfoundIand's Needs

OTTAWA, Ont, March 20.-It is stated
here that an effort is being made in New
foundland to add enormously to the de-

Canada should tunnel the Straits of Belle

A RUNAWAY YOUNG COUPLE
Lizzie Behan and Roy Raymond of Los
Angeles Levant
A Gambler and Politician Betrays Young
Girl and Takes Her From San
Francisco

SAN FRANCISCO, March 2O.-Man's
duplicty and young girls thoughtess-
ness are responsible for the elopement of
pretty Lizzie Behan and Roy Raymond of
Los Angeles. Miss Behan is the pretty
16-year-old daughter of M. Behan, who
has for five years past been doorkeeper
at the Occidental Hotel, and Raymond is
notorious politician, gambler and
opium tiend. Miss Behan met Raymond
fisst at ball given in a Mission-stre ct
hall. Despite the fact that Raymond had
absolutely no qualities to recommend
him, the girl fell violently in love with
him, the result being her downfall in
short time. Heartless and cruel, like
most of his kind, Raymond treated the
girl with unexampled cruelty, often beat
ing and kicking her almost into insensi-
bility. Yet, despite her treatment, the
girl clung to him.
Mr.. Behan was unaware of his daugh-
ter s disgrace until Friday last, when he
received an anonymous note informing
him that she and Raymond were living
together at the Stanford House on Market
street. Horrified at the disclosure, he ap-
pealed to Secretary McComb of the HUI
name Society for assistance, but when
Officer Holbrook visited the house men,
toned the couple were no longer there.
Inquiry developed the fact that they had
left the city for Los Angeles on Sunday
evening.
The officers are convinced that Raymond
has enticed the girl from the city in order
to place her in some questionable resort
and thereby secure a living at her ex-
pense. Under the law this is kidnapping,
punishable by imprisonent in the penten-
tiary. Pictures of the couple have been
sent to the police Of Los Angeles, together
with the notification to arrest RAYMOND
when found. Raymond has long been
under police surveillance here, and if cap
tured, strong efforts will be made to send
him across the bay.
The police have been notified of the
departure of the couple from San Fran
cisco, but as yet have not seen them
here.-Ed.
