Andrew Tanner, an old time
sheep herder has been in Wins

earnings. Thursday be drew
800 from Babbitt Bros. and
proceeded to fill up on sheep
herder's delight, About 10
o clock in the evening he wand
cred into the Monarch saloon
and flashed up some bills,
which excited the cupidity Of
the one-legged colored piano
player, who makes music for
the frequenters of this resort.
Mr.. Tanner says that between
u and ! o'clock the negro threW
him down, took his pocketbook
from his pocket and abstracted
some $50 in currency theretrom.

rest of the coon, placed in the

flashed up a fifty dollar bill
about | O'CLOCK Friday morning,
Mr.. Tanner was out a fifty dol
lar bill, The negro was known
to be broke, but claimed he
found the bill on the floor of the
saloon. Judge Mahoney evident
ly did not place MUCH credence
in the testimony Of some OF the
witnesses, as he held the coon
to await the action Of the grand
jury in the sum of $500. in de-
fault Of which he was commit
ted to the county jail, together
with another coon, who was
held as a witness in default OF
$3.50 bail. The latter put bis
foot into it by going to Judge

BRYAN AND DEWEY
10 tho Ticket Which Ohio Democrats NOV

Columbus, Ohio June 1.-THE Demo
cratic state convention begins here, To-
morrow. There is much talk among
the Democratic workers about Bryan
and Dewey being nominated at Kansas
City on the same ticket. There Is one
man wanted here above all others al
this time and that man is John X Nc
lean the last Democratic candidate Tor
Governor and the acknowledged lead
er of the Ohio Democracy. He has an
nounced that he must sail for Europe
with his family, next Saturday, from
New York. and that he cannot attend
the convention here. He says, further
more, that he cannot attend the ma
tional convention in Kansas City, only
three weeks hence.
AS he is a brother-in-law of Admiral
Dewey, his friends say that he does not
want to appear in the role of family
preferences, but they insist that if Adj
miral Dewey is put on the ticket with
Bryan without his personal efforts he
will return from Europe at once and
devote himself exclusively to the cam
paign in the interest Of Bryan and
Dewey.
1t is said that Bryan as we'll As
Dewey will be taken all over Ohio in
special trains and the delegates claim
they could carry their Ohio state
ticket with Bryan and Dewey and elect

who are agitating Bryan and Dewey rs
the ticket think there is no doubt about
