on, however, and to free himself from
her grasp the thief was compelled to
drop his plumber at her feet. Then he
bolted over the back fence and disap'
peared.
1t was discovered that he had start
ed from the house with lead pipe and
gas fixtures valued at $15. His work
inside the place had damaged the house
to the extent of SIS. Everything
pointed to careful plan to thoroughly
strip the empty house, but the plan was
defeated by the appearance and prompt
action of Miss Scanlon.

tionary crowd gained the ear of the
emperor, An artificial agitation was
started. The machinery of government
and the police were set in motion and
the emperor was persuaded that fanati-
cal elements only waited for the grant
Of modicum Of liberty in order to at
tack his own life.
The law now granted will restore
courage to the press. Hitherto one
warning from the censor has sent n
panic through the editorial rooms, two
have put them under the sword of Da-
mocles and three were regarded as pre-
liminary to extinction, Which was rare
ly long delayed. After three warnings
the authorities could shut up the news
paper at any moment. Now the first
notice or warning will remain in force
only year, if q second does not follow
within the year; the secol1 viii expire
with!n two Years, if there Is not tai'G
within that period, and the third VIII
remain in force only three years. This
action with regard to the liberty of the
press is taken by many TO be- fore
runner of an era of reform in Russia.

Cleveland, o., July 23.--The sneak
thief whose field of operations is the
vacant house got in his work yesterday.
A negro entered an unoccupied house
at S4S Woodland avenue, prepared to
strip it of fixtures. He was discovered
by a young lady whose pluck and
prompt action resulted in his narrowly
escaping capture by hurried flight
over the back fence when he was COM
pclled to drop all his plunder.
Mrs. James Scanion occupies the
house next to the one entered. At 6
a. m. yesterday her daughter thought
she noticed some one moving about in
the vacant house. She went promtly to
investigate. On close inspection she
saw through the window burly negro
moving about the place. He saw her
and at once started to leave the house,
carrying an armful of lead pipe, gas
fixtures and other spoils. He tried to
avoid Miss Scanlon, but she courage

one of the 10000 claims to be awarded

close on July Goth.

st. Petersburg, July 23.-The grant
of more liberal press regulations af.
fords additional proof that Emperor
Nicholas has emancipated himself
from the advisers who still hold the
ideas which prevailed during the I'M
happy period that followed the murder
of the czar liberator, Alexander |. AS
an instance of more benevolent reforms
the following example is given:
A deputation of editors, led by a
courageous. .literateur, who is no longer
actively connected with the press, went
before his majesty with their humble
petition "Give us press law" they
pleaded. LET it be as your majesty
may deem proper, but give us n law
and let us know where we stand. Free
us from the dominion of officials whose
will is their only law. Give us as much
freedom as you can. We will not abuse
it,
The emperor made a gracious re-
sponse. The editors and publishers
breathed a sigh of relief. But they
were cruelty disappointed. The reac

initial spin on Sunday last and the trip
which was between Mystic and the club
house off Pawtuxet was a crucial test OF
the little yachts both as 10 strength and
speed. The boats were finished last week
and the owners went down 10 the little
Connecticut town Saturday afternoon TO
put the dIminutive crafts i'm readiness
for the hazardous trip.
Early Sunday morning the start was
made with Howard f. Barlow's boat i'm

started again. o. L. Easton went as far
as Stonington and remained there over
Sunday.
