Professional Crook Who Vas Here at In
auguration. Of
Stole Jewelry From Visitors ON q
Car-The Plunde< Fully
IdentiaeI-,J

Last night about 8 o'clock a dispatch
was received at police headquarters from
Chief O'Mara of the Pittsbazg police force.
which caused the detectivesito feel CRATE
full for the active interest the chief had
taken in case involving the capture of an
alleged professional crook, who is wanted
here as we'll as in the recovery Of several
hundred dollars worth Of jewel-y. The
arrest is not only important because of
the prisoners alleged connection with this
case. but the police hope to fasten other
crimes on him and clear some other rob-
berries from the record. The prisoner is a
young colored man, who gave his name as
Howard Ward, but who is known here un-
der the alias, yellow Hobo He is
charged with having stolen a satchel con-
tanning about $500 worth of jewelry from
a car at the Baltimore and Ohio depot on
the night sof March 3. Mrs Daniel H.
Buck, who lives at No. % North 18th street,
Philadelphia. Is the lawful owner CT the
jewelry. She was here with party OF
friends to witness the Inauguration, end
they lived in car at the depot. While the
visitors were away from the car seeing
the sights the expert sneak thief managed
to get in the car and secure the satchei
containing the valuables. The detectives
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1897-04-23

made every effort 10 locate the thief and
the property, but without success, until
two days ago, when Chief O'Mara sent In
spector Hollinberger letter making the
inquiry: DO you know anything about a
young colored man who gives his name as
Howard Ward and claims to come from
Selma, Ohio|'
The letter contained a photograph of the
prisoner and gave the information that
Ward was arrested in Pittsburg on the
10th Of last month and had In his pos
session about $500 worth of jewelry. Chief
O'Mara said in the letter that he had just
learned this week that Ward was in this
city before he came there, and said he
would be released from the Pittsburg work
horse yesterday. The description of some
of the jewelry convinced Inspector Hol-
linberger that the robber Of Mrs. Buck was
in custody, and he wired Chief O'Mara to
hold the prisoner a few days longer.
Through Chief Linden of the Philadelphia
police the inspector had Mrs. Buck and
her husband go to PittsblTg, where they
fully identified the jewelry. Word Of their
Identification was communicated to In
spector Hollinberger last night. and this
morning Detective Lacy and Chief Lloyd of
the Baltimore and Ohio detectives went
to Pittsburg for the prisoner.
Howard Ward, who was better known
here as yellow Hobo" was in this city
during the Inauguration, and Detective
Lacy had several conversations with him.
Like other people OF his class he was
blowing hot and cold at the same time, SO
1t Is now charged, Tor while ne was giving
the officers Information he was also victim
izing some Of the inaugural visitors. 1t Is
thought by the local detectives that he Is
an up-to-date crook. He is more intelli-
gent than the average man of his class,
and Is well educated. Although he is bright
ard intelligent, he wears old clothes, giving
him the appearance of being a tramp, and
In this way he succeeds in avoiding sus-
picion. His disguise certainly worked well
in this city, for the detectives paid but lit
m IL hQo If h{c
color and dress that he is called yellow
Hobo" Since the receipt of Chief O'Mara's
letter Detective Lacy has made further in
vestigattons concerning the prisoner, and
he learned that he was employed about the
railroad depot about the time the robbery
was committed. 1t Is thought that the Off
Ger will return with the prisoner and jew
elry about Saturday.

four feet long, the front half being COW

eight feet long resting on runners, says a
writer in the London CONT Times.
In this box the passenger sits, wrapped
in rabbit skins so that he can hardly
move, his head and shoulders only pro-
jecting. In front and behind and on top
of the box is placed all the luggage. COW

Withstand all the jolting and possible up

whip, terrible to the dog if used by a
SIX j. lful hand and terrible to the user If
he be a novice, for he is sure to half
strangle himself orsshurt his own face with
the business end Of the lash. The whip
measured had handle nine inches long
and lash thirty feet, and weighed four
pounds. The lash was of folded and
plated sealhide, and for five feet from the
handle measured five inches round, then
for fourteen feet it gradually tapered of,
thick and eleven feet long. Wonderful
the dexterity with which driver can
pick out dog and almost spot on dog
with this lash. The lash must be strail-
ing at full length behind, when jerk
and turn of the wrist caused it to fly for
ward, the thick part first, and then taper
ing and continuing the motion till it is at
full length in front, and the lash making
the fur fly from the victim. But often it
is made to crack over the heads of the
dogs as a warning. The eleven dogs were
harnessed to the front sled, each by q
separate thong of sealhide, all of different
lengths, fastened to light canvass har-
ness. The nearest dog was about fifteen
feet from the sled and the leader, with
bells on her, about fifty feet, the thongs
thus increasing in length by about thr ee
feet. When the road is good the dogs
spread out like the fingers of hand, but
when the snow is deep they fall into each
others tracks in almost single file. AS
they continually cross and recross each
other the thongs get gradually plated
almost up to the rearmost dog, when a
halt is called, the dogs are made to lie
down, and the driver carefully olsen
tangles them, taking care that no dog
gets away meanwhile. They are guided

No Color Bearers in Action.

In military circles Lord Wolseley's now
famous letter on regimental colors ad-
dressed to DR.. Lucock, dean of Lichfeld
Cathedral, continues to be the theme of
animated discussion. The commander-in-
chief wrote the dean:
In future it would be madness and a
crime to order any man to carry colors
into action. You might quite as we'll
order him to be assassinated. The Ger
mans carry the poles on which the colors
used to be, so that they attract no notice
in action. We have had, most reluctant
". to abandon practice to which we at
tach great importance, and which, under
past and gone periods of fighting, was
invaluable in keeping alive the regimen.
tai spirit upon which our British troops
depended so much.
This was read by the dean short time
ago at the close of the ceremony OF receiv-
ing the old colors of the Sixty fourth foot
regiment, now the First battalion ofssthe
Prince of Wales Statfordshire regiment,
serving in Egypt to be deposited in the
cathedral Before going down the Nile
the regiment was presented with new col
ors at Cairo, and the retired colors were
sent home.
In the course of an address during the
ceremony the dean, recount1ng the ex-
ploits of the regiment, said 1T was a
source of Disappointment to many people
| that in these times colors were not car
ried into action The question is, wheth.
er soldiers derive a stimulus from the i'm.
mediate presence of the colors which off
sets the almost certain fatality to those
who carry them. There can be no doubt

opinion
