TWO BIG BAD BURGLARS

West Chester. July 17.-Charles Prall,
of this place, soundly thrashed two big
burglars who broke into his business
place at Lenape yesterday morning,
knocking them senseless with a club.
Both, however, escaped, one of them
leaping into the Brandywine, twenty
five feet below.
The men aroused Prall. who was
sleeping in his place. by endeavoring to
gain an entrance. and he met them at
the door when they broke it down. He
was knocked down by one of the men
and badly bruised butmanaged to reach
a wooden bar, and with it knocked
one Of the men senseless. Then he pur-
sued the other and treated him in like
manner. When Prall returned to look
for the first man the latter leaped the
railing into the shallow water and
made his escape. The other one escai,~
to the railroad tracks.

narrowly averted Friday evening Man
uel jones, OF near Elkton. had
been threshing wheat on his farm.

the boat yards owned by E. Diebert and
Diebcrt q Bro. Of Elkton. Just as
workmen had completed threshing a
large straw rick caught fire from the

There were two barrels Of water and
a large machine canvass near the blaze,
and Thomas Reed, seeing these, with a
wild dash rushed with the canvass aud
threw 1t upon the blaze. Five minutes
delay would have been too late to save
anything Jones building and 2.20C

Electric Line viii Unite Three
Kansas Towns.
Circle Between ROsedaIe, Argen-
tine and Kansas City, KS.
WOULD BE BIG SCHEME
A GaIena Girl of 1S Years
Weighs 253 Pounds.
Her Father Tips the Scales at
40 Pounds Now.

Argentine, April 26.-The property
owners in Rosedale, Argentine and
Kansas City, Kas., are going to unite
in an effort to secure the construction
of an electric line over Greystone
heights to connect the Wyandotte street
division of the Metropolitan with the
Argentine line in the latter town, thus
uniting the three cities of Rosedale,
Argentine and Kansas City, Kan.
There will be a mass meeting of
those interested in the project at the
Sauer farm, between Rosedale and Ar
gentine, next Saturday afternoon to be-
gin the agitation for the Improvement,
and it is expected that most of the
property owners along the proposed
route of the connecting link will be
present.
The building of the road would be a
great source of convenience to the
whole of Wyandotte county, and it
would result virtually in the uniting
of the three big towns on the Kansas
side of the state line. Though Rose
dale is less than a mile distant from
Argentine, the people have to travel
more than ten miles by street railway
to go from one town to the other at
the present time.
If Tenth street through Kansas City,
Kas., is ever opened and a bridge is
built across the Kaw river that thor
oughfare will be opened to a, great
north and south road that the Metropol-
itan company has long had under con-
sideration. but the idea now is to push
the building of short link from the
Twelfth street bridge, where the Argen-
tine line turns on Ruby avenue, over
the hills to Rosedale, where the Wyan-
dotte division stops.
Fx-Congressman Mason S. Peters is
one of the men who is behind the
project, and he says his neighbors are
anxious to have some enterprising cap
italist get hold of the scheme and carry
it through The property owners, he
thinks, will encourage the plan.

Battle Ground For Jeffries- Cor

It Is Said, and the Place Is
Tuckahoe, Westchester.
THE DATE is MAY 12.
Pitcher Hughes Declares He
VIII Desert Brooklyn.
Sacramento Club Offers Him a
Big Salary.

New York, April 26.-The impression
is well grounded in the Jeffries camp
at Asbury Park that Tuckahoe, in
Westchester county, will be selected as
the battle-ground for Corbett and the
champion, and the date will be May
II. Jeffries is anxious to fight in the
Coney Island arena next Monday, but
Manager Brady won't stand for it. 1t
is we'll known that Brady owns a, third
interest in the 1899 lease of the Coney
Island club, and that Martin Julian is
also a part owner in the same lease.
Brady, it is understood, will require his
pound of flesh if the fight is pulled off
before the expiration OF the old lease.
Nor does the veteran manager believe
the gate receipts will be so large if the
contest is forced on prematurely.
For these and many other reasons
Manager Brady will await for a day
or two longer the decision of the Coney
Island club after which he will issue
his uItimatum for Jeffries.
