AN ILLINOIS BANK ROBBED
SAFE BLOWERS GET AWAY WITH
CASH AND BONDS.
Crime Occurred In Troy, Eighteen
Miles from st. Louis-Nitro-g ly-
cerine Used.

st. Louis. Nov, 25.-The Troy Ex-
change bank at Troy, HIS. eighteen
miles from ST. Louis. was wrecked by
safe blowers about 2:3O a. m, and ev-
erything of value in the bank. was
taken. The robbers secured between
$1,000 and $1,000 in cash and stacks of
bonds and other securities and escaped.
The robbers drove into town in a
carriage and after robbing the bank
drove out again, without being mo-
Tested. They were seen driving to-
wards Edwardsville. the county seat
of Madison county, shortly after the
burglary. 1t is believed the robbers
are experts and that they were from
this city. Sheriff Kuntze organized a
posse and went in pursuit of them. but
without result.
The noise of the explosion was heard
a mile from town. 1t terrified every
body, but no one investigated the af-9
fair, except a doctor living nearby. and
he was not able to prevent the robbery
From the appearance Of the inside OF
the bank il seemed that nitro lycerine
was used. The vault had been opened
without explosives and the door ef the
safe was blown through the counter
and carried to the front of the Build

There is at the Kenyon a woman who
is accounted one of the advanced think
ers among women, who is probably
more representative of the present
woman movement than any other in
the country.
Mrs Charlotte Perkins Stetson OF
New York. who is the author of "'Wom-
en- and Economics" that work which
mas aroused such a storm of criticism
and comment from New York to San
Francisco. isn't as masculine and
strong-minded as many of her critics
would have their readers believe.
She may be new woman but she
doesn't wear bloomers-nor corsets, and
she doesn't ride any hobby horses In
fact, she is a very womanly woman,
with more brains that nine hundred
and ninety-nine men out of thousand,
and she evinces more alertness, bright
ness and intelligence in ten minutes
conversation than does the average
man during his lifetime. Contrary to
the notions bred by critics and review
ers of her book. she doesn't preach doc
trines that are obnoxious when her
meaning is thoroughly understood.
Why. I'm not a reformer," said she
last evening. II have no plan for the
regeneration of the world. l have sim
ply studied the development of human
nature. l have tried to point out what
considered to be the course of evolu-
ton, insofar as it refers TO women and
their work.
Mrs Stetson has come here on a lee
turing tour. On Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday she Will speak at Provo
Through some mistake it las not been
for her to speak at Salt Lake
though it is likely that the ladies of
the various wOmeI's clubs will take up
the matter. Mrs. Stetson met Mrs A.
W. McCune. Mrs. Gates and Mrs. Eme-
line Is. Wells at the London Congress
of Women, and they begged her to
come to Utah. She is here. But Mrs
McCune, on whom she relied to ar

HOW MAINE WAS BLOWN UP
OFFICIALS AT HAVANA HAVE
DISCOVERED THE SECRET.
Seven Hundred Pounds of Guncotton
Was Used-Speculation as to I'm
plication of Commander of Port.

New York. Nov. 25.-The World tomor-
row will publish a letter from Havana
stating that United States officials, after
months of secret investigation. have dis
covered that the battleship Maine was
blown up by guncotton torpedoes placed
in the bay for the purpose The guncot-
ton. 7ce pounds of which was used was
sent from Barcelona to Admiral Man
terola, commanding the port of Havana,
and was either stolen from the magazine
where the stuff was stored or taken away
with the knowledge of the officials in
charge.
Admiral Manterola's records will I'M
doubtedly show the names of his subord-
mates who had direct control of the ex-
plosives and in that way the identity of
the authors and the eXecutioners of the
plot TO destroy the Maine may be dis
covered.
Two or three men We're engaged in the
destruction of the Maine. A steam launch
of Spanish make now used by the United
States government in Havana harbor
conveyed the TWO torpedoes, according to
the new evidence, TO a point within a few
feet of the berth of the Maine and an
chored them. The torpedoes were kept in
position by means OF buoys floaIed eleven
feet under water, ten feet above the an
chors used to prevent them from being
swept away. The torpedoes We're ex-
pleded by contact with the keel of the
Maine as she swung at anchor

EXTRACTION REFUSED.
Mexican Government Holds Alleged
Murderer

Houston, Tex. Nov. Pa special
from Eagle Pass says: Ambassador
Clayton telegraphs from the City of
Mexico TO this (Maverick) county that
the Mexican government refuses ex-
tradition of Leonardo Gonzales, Mex
lean citizen, accused of the murder OF
an American woman at Sanchez. on the
Texas side, some months ago, on
ground of insufficient evidence, The
case engrossed considerable attention
as being one of the first TO arise under
the new extradition treaty. and has
caused several collisions between the
governments of the state of Texas and
the state of Coahila in the first in
stance. and later between Secretary of
State Hay at Washington and the
Mexican foreign Office, through Am
bassador Clayton.
The accused has meanwhile been
held in custody by the Mexican au-
thorities. The case is similar in many
respects to that of Mrs. Rich. an Amer
lean citizen. who was surrendered by
Texas and the United States TO Mex
leo on the charge of the murder of her
husband. though the evidence was
wholly circumstantial.

Mexico. However, as the late conven-
ton of the Federation of Women S
Clubs paid much attention to Mrs.
Stetson's women and Economics" it
is thought that the ladies will take
enough interest 10 have her speak.
Mrs. Stetson breaches the gospel of
Woodwork, not particularly for the re-
Immigration, but because it is health
ful. She believes that every man and
every woman, whether rich or poor,
whether rolling in millions or poverty.
should work. Some of her best thoughts
are expressed in epigram.
There are three classes of women
said she-"those who work for nothing,
as in households; those who do moth
ing at all, but live off the work of 9TH
of women who earn their own livings.
Without offense i would suggest asy-
lums for those WHO don't work
Every woman should earn her own
living" said Mrs. Stetson Let her
earn it at that work for which she is
best suited" --rss-.
Many a man has a milestone around
his neck in the form of a doll-like crea-
ture who doesn't know the difference
other of her sayings.
"a young man is outside the direct
influence Of women from the time he
leaves home until ne marries, said
she. Say the time is ten years. He
may in those years associate wthstwo
classes of women-good and bad for
he will seek them. AS a rule he will
choose the good women. OF these there
are married women and single women
With the former he may not associate.
The unmarried women expect him to.
take them out to- theatres, balls. buy
bon-bons and numerous things for
them Thus he spends the money he
should save for home. The girls do
not know any better. for they have
never earned e, dollar and they don't
know its value"
