Both gentlemen were IN the city last
night, returning from q summer trip.
and stopped at the City hotel Although
being in a metropolis, on Saturday even
ing at that, they had a higher regard FOR
comfort than fer style. They had shed
their coats and vests an placed them
in their grips for safety, with boiled
shirts, new shoes and big supply OK
such other things as they needed II their
vacation trip. Their grips were set be
hind the hotel counter under the ever
watchfu eye Of Otto Koplin-

in with grips and politely asked Dir.

concluded IT. was about time they should

were nowhere to be found. The landlord
attention was called 10 the fact and then
il was discovered that the two strangers
LEFT worthless grips at the hotel and car
RED away those belonging TO the South
Haven gentlemen, each containing about
$40 worth Of goods.
The police department was notified and
several patrolmen and detectives were
set to work, but the slippery fellows had
not been found when the Eagle went 10
press.
Mr. Williams and sfr. Dur are both
othle'io young men and they organized
themselves into g private searching par
" They visited all the depots and
watched the outgoing trains for their
grips, but failed to set trace Of them.
II they had seen them there would be a
mighty lively slugging match.
1Ir. Duff said to = reporter FOR the
Eagle that he felt Ike going into South
Haven on the night train. for everybody
there knows him and they might think il
queer to see him returning from his visit
with only pair Of trousers, a shirt and
q pair OF galIuses.
The police say there are more thieves
IN town now than at any time in the his
tory OF Wichita. They are taking ad-
vantage OF the great travel through the
Peerless Princess towards e Reno and
n quiet way are resping a harvest.

the Santa Fe south. While passing
through the coaches correcting fares. he
was informed by a fellow whom he had
asked for q fare to so 70 q different
cline and infused some choice express
sions IL his talk 10 O'Dowd. But O'Dowd
was net to be bIu1ed in that manner but
insisted on having the fare. Thereupon
the fellow struck al the conductor, who
using his lamp as club started to de-
fend himself. At that three more men
sprang I'D and started for ODowd who
was beginning 70 do up the non-paying
passenger. The scufIe lasted several
minutes and O'Dowd got decidedly the
worst Of the scrap, receiving several cuts
and bruises about the head and face.

And the world was alert to catch the strain
