BE11AMY LOOKING BACKWARD
And Wishing He Had Not Been
Arrested

Police detectives arrested Geo. Bethany
a colored man, last Tuesday. on charge
of having committed burglary at the
City dye works. No. 343 South Broadway,
where he had been employed for some time
past. On Saturday night the dye works
were entered and large quantity of goods
stolen. A peculiar feature about the rob-
berry was the fact that only the most val
liable articles were carried away. This
caused the officers to think that the robbery
had been done by person familiar with
the store, and they suspected Bellamy.
The colored man, however, volunteered
to aid the officers and claimed that he had
got trace Of where the goods had been
sold by the thieves. This statement was
found to be untrue and when Bellamy saw
that the officers were suspicious of him,
he attempted to insinuate that his brother
had committed the burglary. The goods
were recovered by the officers, however,
and a strong case secured against the
Oakley, with the result that he was taken
into custody. Bellamy was recently tried
and acquitted in the superior court OF a
charge Of burglary and was afterwards ar
rested on suspicion Of another job, but was
discharged.

Any one who has ever had an attack of inflammatory rheumatism will re- ioice with Mr. J. A. Stumm, 220 Boyle Heights, Los Angeles, over his fortun- ate escape from siege of that distress ing ailment. Mir. Stumm is foreman of Merriam's confectionery establish ment. Some months ago, on leaving the heated work room to run across the street on an errand, he was caught out in the rain. The result was that when ready to go home that night he was unable to walk, owing to inflam- matory rheumatism. He was taken home, and on arrival was placed in front of a good fire and thoroughly rubbed with Chamberlain's Pain Balm. During the evening and night he was repeatedly bathed with this liniment, and by morning was relieved of all rheumatic pains. He now takes espe cial pleasure in praising Chamberlain's Pain Balm, and always keeps bottle of it in the house. For sale by H. O.. Hitchcock, druggist.
