POLICE COURT.
All Kinds of Travellers Captured In
A Roundup Last Night-The
Town Overrun With Them
Other Matters.

just what to do with the hoboes is
the question at present troubling the
police department. There were ten
released last night and five new
ones arrested. Regardless OF
this, however, there was received
This morning at police headquarters a
telephone message stating that there
were bunch of hoboes near the G. Fl.
stock yards east of the city
All rof the availab BILE space in the
city Jail was occupied and
nothing could be done with them so
they were allowed to go unmolested.
The five arrested last night by Officer
Bendy gave their names as follows:
John MuldoOn, Frank Parker, Malone.
S. Wright and John Kelly. They
were put to work this morning clean
ing up Santa Fee street near the Santa
Fe depot. Some of them were well
dressed and had the appearance OF be-
ing we'll taken care of.
James Flores, who was arrested Sun
day on a charge of being drunk and
disorderly, escaped yesterday. This
does not occur very often but Flores
slipped away yesterday.
r. Nickerson and P. Davis, who were
locked up Sunday on a charge OF mali
cions mischief were fined 81 each
which they served.
James Kelly was locked up by Rog-
ers and fined 50 for being drunk and

PROF. TOUCHES RECITAL
A Fine Entertainment But A Small
Audience.

The recital given at Chopin hall
last night by Prof J. Frank Fouche
brar s1v was greatly 'n enioyed by every
one who attended. Prof. Fouche is
a remarkably talented man, and his
interpretations and imperSouatiOns
evidence the most careful training and
deep study.
The professor took his selections
from a great many different sources,
and his remarkable versatility was
we'll demonstrated. His forte is Shake
speare, and his work iu the selections
from Hamlet and the Merchant of Ven
ice was most cred tia BILE. The selections
from Quo Vadis and The Uncle were
also very we'll rendered.
1t is to be regretted that so small
an audience attended the recital. The
entertainment was one of the best that
have been given here this season, and
moreover it was given for a most
worthy cause, the upbuilding of the
public school library.

FIREMEN MOVING in

They Are Taking Possession of Their
New Quarters Today and Will
Have the Old Stable on oregon
Street Vacated by the First
The Bell Was the First Thing
Removed This Morning.
There was great hustle and stir at
the new fire department building this
morning. The firemen are taking pos
session of their new quarters.
The builders have just completed
their work aud the interior of the new
house lis still Uttered with scraps of
lumber sawdust and shsvings, but it is
the intention of the department to
move in prior to the first of March so
as to get out of their present quarters
and stop paying rent after the end OF
this month.
The big alarm bell. that rings when,
ever q fire occurs was brought round
this morning from the old quarters ano
raised to the lofty bell tower of the
new building by, means of pulleys and
ropes. It is said that the alarm can be
heard without difficulty in all portions
of the city when it sounds in the bel
fry of the new building. AT the form.
err location down on Oregon
street opposite Pomeroy's stables
it could scarcely be heard on San An
tonic street, which is only few blocks
away and many of the volunteers were
not informed that their services were
needed until the thing was over.
The little room beneath the belfry
on the second floor is surrounded by
windows and commands fine view OF
the entire city. The entire building
is handsome structure both inside
and out and the city may well be prou"
of it.
AT present there are DO hand rails
along the stairway leading to the Sec
ond floor, but it is presumed that they
will be placed there before the build
ing is turned over. The two man hoes,
through which the fremen are to des-
cend when the alarm sounds at night,
open into their sleeping apartment. 1t
is presumed that they.will be surround
ed by guard ails to prevent accidents.

A STARTLING VISITOR.
Honesty Leads to the Payment of an

(From the Detroit Free Press.)

tfEom the DttrOit GresS1
Diogenes spent long and weary days
and nights looking for an honest man.
Some of us are at the same game now. but
as for honest women-bless you, stone
cannot be thrown without one being hit as
the result of the cast.
Hearken to this tale of honesty, that
smacks of Grimm and Andersen and all
the other romancers of fairyland, yet is
the truth the whole truth and nothing but
the truth.
Twas day before yesterday the bell in
the telephone closet of the gas Office rang
and a young clerk hastened to respond.
He yelled the customary hello into the re-
ceiver and then he listened. What he
heard caused great drops of perspiration
to gather on his youthful brow and his
youthful hair to stand on end
What" he cried into the instrument.
Whatever had been said at the other
end was repeated.
Wait n minute" he yelled, and then
dropped from the high stool he called an
older and wiser head to the instrument.
The older and wiser head listened and
his hair stood on end.
He ended the conversation over the wire.

That was what caused all that hair in
the gas Office to stand on end. The mat

of a meter ever having been set in the
house occupied by the old lady. But an
agent of the company was sent up to call
on her. She explained everything over to
him and ended by telling him to wait a
minute He waited. She left the room
and came back shortly with tin box in
her hand. She opened the cover and pour

money over to the agent of the company.
He counted it. There was S21 in dimes,

Wet grounds prevented the game be-

The Fitusimmons-Jerries Fight.

New York. May 1s.-Billy Brady and
Martin Julian were busy today considering
picture proposals. The fact that Brady
has already said that it would not be
necessary to postpone the battle in the
event of unfavorabie weather leads to the
belief that the promoters have discovered
new process of pictures by which the
battle may be taken by artificial light.
Sports are inclined to ridicule the idea
of the club holding bout on the same
night of the big match. They think that
the excitement and interest attendant upon
the afternoon struggle will detract atten-
tion from the other fight. Brady has an
idea OF putting on Kid Mccoy and Tommy
Ryan. He has an option. too. on a twenty
five round fight between Spike Sullivan
and Kid Lavigne Ryan said today that
he would agree to fight Mccoy and the
latter has been notified. Although the big
battle is several weeks off. interest in the
contest grows apace. The champion still
rules the favorite, many of his partisans
being willing to give to 1 that he viii
