MANY BURGLARIES; NO ARRESTS.
HoUSEHOLDERS SAY THAT UNDER THREE
PLATOON SYSTEM ROBBERS WORK UN-
MOLESTED BY POLICE

MOLESTED BY POLICE.
Many householders in the Riverdale section OF the
city have become convinced that the three platoon
system, which Commissioner Murphy recently set
in operation at the urgent demand of the Patrol
mems Benevolent Association, is a failure. Burg
lars have infested the district, unmoested by the
police. since the three platoon system went into
force. Jewels silverware and bric-a-brac worth
thousands Of dollars have been stolen in the night
time result of lengthening the police posts
there
Burglars have broken into the houses of General
Alexander S. Webb, w. w. Appleton, Robert c.
Martin, Edmund ID. Randolph George D. Eldridge.
Mrs. Frederick +. Harriet (Clara Morris) and
others. and have carried away booty that included
Webbs house was visited twice Mr.. Martin dis
covered the burglars in his house, and held up
at the muZZle Of revolver until they could escape
At many houses in the district which have been
guarded by burglar alarms the thieves have been
frightened away. The residents the district have
protection. No arrests have been made, and the
police have not recovered any Of the stolen prop
erty
Some of the police officials say that the roberts,
city, may be expected continue until there is a
thorough change in the police system. Under the
present system policemen cannot be made to per-
form good patrol duty. The charge made by Chief
Croker of the Fire Department that policemen go

discover fires their posts is acknowledged to be
true by officers OF the force The present patrol
system makes the night posts long that pa
roman can cover his post properly, and few pa
trolmen try Roundsmen have stopped trying 10

Archie Allen met with q severe
accident in the E. d P. shops where
he is employed, at Palisade last
Monday morning and it Is miracle
that he was not killed. On start
ing to work that morning he went
TO oil some of the machinery and
while be was engaged in doing so,
was caught in one of the large re-
volving belts and as soon as be saw
his perilous condition he caught
onto one OF the cross-beams near
by where he hung until he was re-
leased by some of the workmen.
Upon examination it was found
that one of his legs was broken be-
low the knee and the ankle of the
other leg was dislocated and was
bruised somewhat about the body.
He had a hard time to ex~tricate
himself from being crushed to
death. DR.. Hood went up to Palis-
ade Monday morning to attend
him. Archie's numerous friends
here were very sorry to hear OF bis
sad misfortune and all hope that it
may be only a short time before he
will be able to be up aud around.

The difficulty experienced by
travellers in getting out Of Califor-
mia gives a good idea Of the heavy
eastbound passenger traffic at pres
ent. The Southern Pacific Offices
in San Francisco are daily crowded
with people begging for Pullman
accommodations East, only to be
told that they must wait two weeks
before they could be accommodated
unless they went into the day
coaches and took their chances
with the crowd.
The cars of eastbound passenger
trains are always crowded with pas
sengers and each train is generally
run in sections.

They were newly married and were
calling on one Of the friends OF the
bride who had been particularly pleas.
ant upon the occasion Of their wedding.
The bridegroom apropos Of nothing,
began to talk about phrenology and
told how his wife had discovered two
prominent bumps on the back of his
head. He was proud of them. So
was she, and she passed him around
that the host and hostess might feel
the bumps and know their existence.
Then she explained:
MY book on ~phrenology says that
they mean good memory and gener-
osity.'
1t was evident that she was proud
of the facts and so was he. But the
host, being of an inquiring turn Of
mind, wished to satisfy himself; so he
got down a chronological work from
one Of his library shelves, and a fter
much labor, found the bumps on the
chart. Turning to the notes he read.
seriously at first, then unsteadily.
The bride became suspicious, but she
was game and said:
Read it aloud. Please dor' And
the host read:
"These bumps are most frequently
found on cats and monkeys"
Other to pics consumed the remain
der of the visit which was brief IN.
