True and False MahOmetans

An extraordinary scene was enacted by
real and mock Mussulman outside a
boulevard cafe in Paris ON Wednesday
evening. A law student, having had HIM
self photographed in the costume of .
Mahometan mosque dignitary, walked
about the streets in the strange garb,
and then sat outside the refreshment es-
tablishment with a glass Of absinthe be-
fore him. Soon there passed that way Il
genuine follower of the Prophet who
could scarcely believe his eyes when he
saw person dressed as an imaum inn
bibing strong drink. Rushing at the
student, the Mussulman knocked the
glass out Of his hand and smashed bot
tie also on the table at which the appar-
ent imaum sat. The student was not
backward in defending himself and as
the two men were graphing with one an
other the police interviewed and took
them both to the station. There Ali Ben
Mahommed, the real Islamite, finding
that he had only an imitation imaum to
deal with, excused his fury. The pair
were then sent away, the law student
having been severely reprimanded by the
police official for his disrespect toward
the religion of the Prophet Brmingh

TICKET OFFICE AT
kENOSHA ROBBED,
Safe in North Western Sta
ton Gets " UGH Booty.

kenosha, Wis, Jan. 27.-[ Special. /
The ticket office of the North Western
railway in this city was entered by bur
glars some time during the night and a
large amount of valuables were taken.
The robbers was of the most mysterious
nature. The company had man en-
ployed as night telegraph operator. but
he can e I've no facts that will assist in
solving the mystery of the crime.
The safe was not blown open, but it
seems that it was opened by one knowing
the combination. This combination is
known only to the agent and he left the
office at Is o'clock.
In regard to the robbery this morning
Agent Seymour stated that it was not
possible to give any estimate of the booty
secured by the robbers. The money
drawer was found in the yards and it
had been rifed of its contents. 1t is
thought that the loss will be about $500,
although the agent says that it is q little
less than that amount. A large number
of tickets were also ken.
The robbery is thought to have been
more serious than reported by the rail
road officials on account of the fact that
the company has sent Il large number Of
railway detectives to the city TO lnYesti-
gate the crime.

started for the river to skate short
time before taking some examinations,
and was probably drowned a few min
utes after he started out. His watch
had stopped at 10:45 o'clock. 1t was
late III the afternoon when his body was
found IN ten feet OF water, directly un-
der the place where he went in. That
the body was so soon recovered is a Won

There were brief formal services in the
college chapel this morning and the body
was sent to Sweetwater, Ill.,, where Mr..
Burns parents reside. He was % years
old and had been student at Beloit eight
years. He was leader in the Christian
affairs of students. A week ago he made
a remarkably-tellin speech before the
student body, urging students to more
conscientious spirit in recitations and ex-
aminations, in his defense of the honor
system, that has been adopted. He
warned students not to rob themselves
in seeking to deceive their instructors.

Case of Supposed Suicide Involves
Suspicious Facts.
Milwaukee, Oct 30-The mystery
surrounding the death of e. r. Lind
say, whose dead body was found on
the lake front, is deepening. 1t was at
first supposed to have been a simple
case of suicide, but a letter has been
received from a stepson in Buffalo, in
which he says the dead man was
known to have $500 in money and a
Swiss watch worth 5000 when he left
Buffalo.
The writer also says that Lindsay
vas acquainted with a woman in this
city and that her husband worked for
q contractor here. A photograph of
the dead man is enclosed, which is
easily recognizable, though the corpse
is clean shaver and the picture shows
a man with mOustache. He carried
So 900 insurance on his life
1t is still the theory of the coroner
that Lindsay took his own life, but
the question that now confronts him
is what became of the money and
watch. When found there was not
even a penny in his pockets.
