house when she opened it at her leisure.
AS soon as the box was missed by Mr..
Weekman he instituted search for it,
but without any good results, until
suspicious action OF the Lowney girl led
them to think that she knew where It
was or what had become OF il, and on
being closely questioned she confessed TO
taking il.
She told how she opened the box and
burned all the papers and legal docu-
ments which it contained. only keeping
the cash, which she had spent. The
strong box contained some stock certif-
Gates which belonged to Mr.. Weekman,
beside some promissory notes which are
OF no value except to him. The girl gave
as an excuse for her action that she
wanted the money with which to pur-
chase clothing and that she could not
get it any other way. She says she has
spent all but SIS OF the cash.
The girl was in the village lookup yes
day pending some action on the part OF
the authorities. but the matter was set
tied out OF court as Mr.. Weekman was
not DESTROYS OF pushing the matter, and
an arrangement was made for a partial
payment to him by the girl every month
until the matter is squared up.
About $50 OF the cash did not belong
personally TO Mr.. Weekman, but was
held in trust by him for two orphans
whose guardian he is, He had left the
money in the strong box for a few days
intending to take it to the bank as soon
az he had the time.

A good sized audience geeted DR..
John i. d. John at the new Y. M. c. A.
building last night. his lecture was on
the worth OF a Man." 1t was highly
appreciated by all. DR.. John is certainly
a very able man, as was shown by the
eloquent and scholarly manner in which
he handled his subject. His lecture to-
night will he, did Man Make GOO, or
Did God Make Mama reply to Robert
Ingersoll.
Col. Ingersoll has always claimed that
those who assumed to answer him have
invariably misrepreseuted his position,
and that his opponents instead OF an
swering his arguments have usually re-
sorted to personal abuse and to defama-
ton OF his character, thus devoting their
time and energy to matters that have no
connection whatever with the questions
in dispute. A discriminating public
knows that these claims of Col. Ingersoll
have too much foundation in fact. 1t is
gratifying to note that of DIR. j. p. ID.
John, wishing to be absolutely fair and
candid, before giving his famous lecture
did Make God, or Did God Make Mani"
to the public, not only made thorough
and systematic study OF the authorized
edition OF Col, Ingersoll's works, but act
ually submitted his general statement OF
Col. Ingersoll's charges against the bible
and Christianity to the colonel himself,
asking him to point out anything that
might in any way misrepresent him. In
very courteous reply Col. Ingersoll
thanked DR.. John for his expressions OF
kindness and fairness, but failed to spec
ify any instance OF Misrepresentation.

Arrests BY che Omcers.

A young girl named Kate Lowney, was
arrested by the officers yesterday on the
charge OF stealing some $3.50 in cash and
destroying notes, stock certificates and
other valuables belonging to Gustai
Weekman OF Raymbaultown. The girl
was taken into custody and brought be-
fore Judge Curtis where she pleaded

II seems that Weekman ia a neighbor
TO the Lowney peope and that bis
daughters and the Lowney girl are more
OF less friendly. Weekman had a small
strong box or safe in which he kept his
yaluables and which vas opened only by
a combination. A few days ago the girl

Calumet Family DeS-
titute of NeCesSar-
les of Life.
Clothing Will he Appreciated
The Mother M and the Daughters
Illness Is Expected-'She Loved
Unwise, the story Goes.

It has been reported to the NEWS that
q girl OF between 16 or II summers has
been indiscreet and Is about to become
mother. The family OF which she is a
member, consists OF three persons, the
mother, the girl referred to and a
younger sister. The mother has hereto
fore tried to maintain the family by TAX
ing in washing, in which the girl, since
she was o years OF age helped, but now
the mother is incapacitated from work
ing by illness and as the girl may be
taken sick at any moment she is helpless
also. Through poverty, the family have
not been able to provide any clothes for
the expected, but no doubt unwelcome,
yisitor-the family being but scantily
provided for themselves. The News
calls attention to the case in the hope
that the Ladies Aid society or the
Salvation Army or some other people
will do something to help the family.
The NEWS knows that the so-called good
people are too often apt to leave such
cases alone, using the old argument "it
serves them right" which really may be
the case, but to such the editor would re-
call the words OF the lowly Nazarene whoit
will be remembered in reply to thescribes
and Pharisees said: He that is without
sin among you. let him first cast a stone
at her." The case is one that requires
immediate help and Miss Mcleod will be
glad to receive from the baby's
clothes, ladies' underwear, clothing OF
any kind or money to help support the
family during the sickness, all or any OF
which can be left at Sodergren & Solder
gren's drug store. The NEWS is be-
lever in the ways OF General Booth and
his army-frst help person by putting
him or her on their teet and then in the
words OF the same preacher say, go,
and Sin No More"
