RUNAWAY BOYS TO CARSON
Started From Indianapolis to See the
Fight and Landed in Topeka

The police today arrested two runa-
way boys who live in Indianapolis Ind,
and they are now held at the city jail
until word can be received from their
parents.
Arthur Caldwell is 16 years old and
has been away from his home for a
year. Howard Owens left his home ten
days ago, and the two renewed old ac-
quaintance in Kansas City, Mo. and
started on trip about the country.
They started originally to- see the Cor
bett-F'itzsimmons fight at Carson, Ne
vada, tomorrow, but found it too cold
to ride on the blind baggage. Caldwell is
a bright looking boy, rather small for
his age. He said:
Il just left home to see the country
1 went to school until 1 got in the 7B
grade. I've been gone year. 1 was
going to see the fight, but it got too
cold. Corbett will sure win and the
youngster nodded his head expressively-
Owens said: Me and Art used to
know each other and l came out TO
Kansas City, and see him on a wagon
there, and we've been together since.
1 wanted to get around and see things.
I went to school until a month ago"
Both boys are plainly dressed but
CadwellS clothes are somewhat ragged
The boys were put in the Woman'S ward
It the city Jail and they seemed to en-
joy their Jail dinner today, consisting of
meat, hominy, potatoes, corn bread and
coffee.

LION CAUSES A PANIC.
Almost Jumps Into a Crowd in an
Omaha Streat

Omaha, Neb., March 16.-A panic oc-
CURED yesterday afternoon on one of
the principal streets of the city, and a
crowd of over 200 people scattered pell
NELL in all directions
People were thrown down and tramp
led upon, several women tainted, and
it is a miracle that no one was seriously
injured.
1t was all caused by the attempt
made by three lions to escape from their
cage, an attempt that was well nigh
successful The managers of one of
the local play houses had engaged a lion
tanner from New York to fill in a week s
engagement. The transfer of the lions
from the wagon to their temporary
quarters attracted a large crowd The
doors of the cage on the wagon box had
been unlocked when the lions became
unusually restlve and one made a rush
at the entrance and succeeded in get
ting its head and forepawS outside be-
fore the keeper, Frank Hall, was aware
of it
Instantly there was the greatest
scramble made to- get out of the way
People ran for blocks to secure shelter,
every lamp post and telegraph pole was
a haven of refuge, and once secure
nothing would induce the occupant to
come down until the danger was all
over
Frank Hall was apparently the only
person who kept his wits about him.
Selling big club he attacked the beast
single handed and with difficulty got
him back into the cage Meanwhile
frightened by the roar of the lions, and
the rush of the crowd, the horses at
tached to the wagon started to run
away with Hall tagging on behind try
ing to snap the pad locks on the cage
door.
Succeeding finally in his efforts. he
climbed up and over the cage and
graSped the lines. After a thrilling ride
of several blocks he managed to pull
the team down and return to the thea
ter. The driver had deserted his post at
the first intimation of danger

willing it should be held by the city
and used to make the last payment.
Simon Greenspan-Mr. Holland told
me that he built an auditorium in Kan
sas to seat 5000 people for $1,000. One
can surely be built in Topeka for $10,-
OO0- If it should require $4,000, I am
willing TO guarantee 81, 900 if the Com
mercial club will raise the other $4,000.
Architect Wood said that building
could be built with steel trusses $50 by
$50 feet but not heated for ST 900.
Councilman Drew-That does not in
clude the sea ting
Councilman Skinner think that the
plans should be submitted to the coun-
ell for approval and I am willing that
the size and details of the building
shall be left to the Commercial club
subject to the approval of the council
Councilman Nettels made long
speech in which he reviewed the whole
course of the auditorium question and
blamed the Commercial club for not
taking more interest in the natter. He
thought the council should demand that
the citizens raise $40, 600 or the PROPOSE
tion will be defeated at the polls.

TICKET OFFICES CLOSE.
Union Avenue Offices, Kansas City, to

in company with General Passenger
Agent Orr of the Port Arthur route
and George H. Foote. temporary secre-
tary Of the local passenger agents, held
a conference with f. d. Washburn.

The meeting was for the purpose of dis
cussing the question of closing the I'm

action was taken. The Great Western
and the Pittsburg & Gulf have agreed
to close their Union avenue offices if
they are permitted to place their tickets

San Francisco, March 16.-CarIoads of

goes from Sacramento, one from Marys-
Vile and another from Stockton. The

u or 13 day coaches for the patrons of

At a rough estimate $50, 900 was wagered
on the fight in the local pool rooms One
man sent in commission of $675 on Fitz-
simmons to bet against 81 900 at Corbett' 8
pool rooms. Betting should be lively
tonight as the FitZsimmon men are be-
ginning to loosen up. Betting varied a
little last night. F'itzsimmons being g to
10. but it dropped to ~ to 10 after a
while.
Denver. March 16.-Reports at the Dem
