probably claim that they are giving the

A MAGNIFICENT PIPE
Taken From Tramp at Police Head
quarters.

At the police station is a meerschaum
pipe, taken from a tramp who claims TO
have been a friend of Duestrow. He
says that Duestrow gave it 10 him a
few days before his Ouestrow's) execu-
ton. The hobo from whom the pipe was
taken is of genteel appearance Zone
more unfortunately who has evidently
seen better days. His blond mustache
droop from a careworn. though hand
some, face. He Is unquestionaoly a man
With a history. His language does not
properly belong to the genus hobo. His
story that the pipe was given TO him by
Duestrow is evidently fabricated. The
pipe has undoubtedly been stolen. II is
quite work of art. The subject Of the
carving is Of NEUROLOGICAL character
and is finely executed. For many rea-
sons more minute description will not
be given. The pipe will be held at the
station in the hope that the owner may
see this notice and have a chance 10
