Gets Off With Valuable Stones and
Leaves no Trace

Leaves no Trace.
Baltimore, Aug. Isl. L. Anshen. a
jewelry manufacturer, occupying a
room on the second floor of building
No. North Holiday street, reported
to the police that his place had been
entered and between $1,000 and 81 500
worth Of unset diamonds. sapphires,
rubies and emeralds were stolen.
Anshen says he thinks the thief used
a duplicate key to get in, as he found
the door locked as usual when he went
to the room. There was no evidence
that entrance had been gained through
a window. Anshen said the gems
were taken from three small boxes
placed in drawer of one of the work
ing tables. and that each was wrapped
separately in tissue paper.

WILLIAMS SCHOOL NOTES.

The attendance at school this week has been excellent.
 One of the interesting studies of the eighth grade this week was the U. s. land survey system.
 The sixth grade pupils are vieing with each other to see who can first complete the miscellaneous prob lems in fractions.
 It is great satisfaction to the teachers to see the pupils taking their books home and we would like to see more studying at home.
 Maurice Salzman, class of 1903, writes us from St. Matthew's Milf tary School, San Mateo, Cal, that he is highly pleased with the school and is enjoying the work there. Maurice expects to enter the Uni versity of California or Leland Stanford as soon as he completes the course at St Matthew's.

We are informed that extensive improvements are contemplated by the mechanical department here at no distant day.
 Still the spirit of improvement continues. Now the company is putting in a gas plant for the depot, Harvey house and reading room.
 Division Supt. John Denair was in town Saturday, and returned west same day. The officials in every department have very little time these busy days.
 There is no dearth of kicking on the part of the road men now days of having to lay over at this point In the not distant future, a lay over will be very acceptable, and appreciated-when they get one.
 MT. Joe Riley, an old Seligman- ite, and for a long time agent at this place, and who has been braking on the road, is home again and has been assigned to the water run It is preferable to Joe, and has a tendency to make him smile. as it will be the means of his being home with his family every day
 The regular annual increase of business on the road has begun and in consequence Seligman's population has swelled, thereby putting to work an extra hostler, hostler helper and call boy. Even with the extra improvements made and facilities for handling freight all along the line, the in- crease of engines and rolling stock, it is feared the company will be hard pushed to handle the steadily accommodating amount of freight.
 Quite an event of social import ance took place last Friday evening when the young men of Seligman rendered to Miss Lizzie Roland a farewell dance. It was we'll at tended, especially by the boys on the road, and lasted until the wee hours of the morning. Miss Roland left Saturday for the Needles, where for a few days she will visit a sister, after which she will depart for the east to reside in the future She has made many warm friends while here, and her departure is very much regretted. Quite a number saw her off on the train and wished her God speed and a pleasant journey
