iSchooIboy Is Successful in Robbing
Several Merchants In Indiana's Capt.
tai City-Summer Dizziness of Trade
Succeeds a Prosperous Six Months.

The Indianapolis police were notified
the other day that several daring hold
ups had been committed by colored boy,
who did not appear to be over years of
age, and few hours later Amos Laws
aged Z, was taken into custody while
sleeping on pile of lumber near his
home. He had one pistol in his pocket
and another by his side, and declared that
he would not have been taken had he
had notice of the approach of the ofti-
GERS. The previous afternoon he entered
shoeshop on North Illinois street, and
presented revolver at the head of the
shoemaker, who was taken wholly by sur
prise. Young Laws then selected three
pairs of the best shoes in the shop, COW
cred the shoemaker with his pistol till
he had backed out upon the street and
escaped. About an hour later the same
lad entered a grocery store in West Mich
igan street No one was in but the pro-
prietor, and he was promptly covered
with the revolver while the young high
wayman placed some choice confection
in sack. He continued to cover the
grocer with his revolver till he had
backed out of the store, and he then
ran. The police say that young Laws
was expecting them, and but for the fact
that he went to sleep he might have Civ
en- them trouble.

twelve miles from Butte, by which two
persons We're killed and thirty-three in

Helena. 1t had made the climb up the
Continental Divide in safety and was
rushing along at top speed on compare
lively level ground when the rails spread,
ditching the baggage car, smoker, day
coach and sleeper. The engine and one
baggage car remained on the track. Inc
cars were thrown over on their sides, ana
the passengers who were not injured, or
but slightly SO. climbed out through the
windows. All the lights were extingulsh-
ed, and from different portions of the
wreck came calls for help and groans and
cries of the injured. Conductor lick,
who was injured, made his way back to
Woodville, five miles, and telegraphed to

Grand Rapids the Scene of Bursting
of Great Reservoir.
A hundred million gallons of water
burst from the reservoir Of the city wat
er works at Grand Rapids, Mich, and,
rushing in a mighty torrent down through
a valley adjacent, wrecked or swept away
the houses, barns and trees in district
three blocks square. To the presence OF
mind of Bert Botsford, newsboy, is due
the fact that hundreds Of persons were
not drowned or injured. The lad discov-
cred tiny stream trickling from the res
ervoir at 8 o'clock and noticing the
weakness Of the walls, he hurried through
the streets screaming a warning to the
people. Almost everyone escaped. Mrs.
Cooper, who lived on Clancy street, is the
only person known to be fatally injured.
She was swept from her house by the del
uge. carried to the bottom Of the hill and
buried to her neck in sand. Rough esti-
mates of the damage place the loss at
100000. An area peopled by 5000 per-
sons is flooded, and most Of the houses
left standing are filed with earth.
