RI0TIOOS BURGLARS
MAKE A NIGHT OF IT IN REV.
TILBURN's PRETTY HOME.
AssIDUoUs HUNT FOR MONEY
Ransack Everything That Night Serve
as q Hiding Place for valu-
ables-Leave a Trail of
Blood Behind.

Burglars entered the home OF Rev. T..
o. Ttlburn. pastor OF the Christian
church, last night, and held high carnival
during the wee sma hours, hunting for
concealed wealth.
The house stands at GIG West Mercury.
Rev. Tilburn had gone over to Anaconda
to attend the annual conference of tsl.
Christian church in session there this
week and had left note pinned to the
screen door, Don't leave any ice until
Saturday or Sunday-gone to Anaconda"
This was evidently addressed to the ice
man, but was equivalent to an invitation
to some bold. prowling craftsman.
The housA was entered from the rear,
the burglars forcing the door with some
sort of Jimmy. The sliding bolt was
opened into the rest of the house. and
forced from it's fastening. enough to al
low the door to swing free. This led
into the kitchen. A glass-paneled door
this also was pried open with jimmy.
Either by accident or design, the glass
was broken and one Of the robbers evil
entity got quite a severe cut on the
hand. for blood is spattered around on
the door and in the floor.
Once in the main part OF the house.
the burglars seem to have exhausted
themselves in their ingenuity to lind q
hiding place for money. They opened
the clock, the stove, pulled the piano
from it's place in the corner, turned the
bed upside down. ripped up the carpets.
shook out the newspapers, pried board
or two from the bookcase, and left every
thing in as great confusion as could we'll
be imagined. They opened the drawers
where the silver tableware was kept.
This seemed to not suit their fancy, for
that was left in It's place. Some fine
china was also untouched. little pill
box on the bureau was opened, as was
! indeed everything that Aeemed capable
Of opening, or of containing any kind OF
valuables.
What may have been taken away Is
a matter of conjecture, as the owner of
the house has not yet returned from
Anaconda. But a den of wild beasts could
not work much greater confusion in the
ell-ordered home than did the midnight
visitors.
There is no suggestion as to the iden-
tity of the housebreakers, save she fact
that one of them is likely to have sore
hand where he cut it on the glass Of the
door.

BOGUS TEN DOLLAR COINS
One Offered in Exchange for a Rail-
road Ticket at the o. S. L.
Office.

An attempt is being made to Hood the
CITY with counterfeit 10-dollar gold pieces.
Yesterday one of the bogus coins was
handed to the ticket agent at the Ore
gon Short Line office, and while it look
ed good to the agent it did not have
the proper ring and was returned to
the man that offered it. The agent says
the coin had exactly the same weight
as a good coin. but the metal was more
yellow than the real article and did not
possess the metallic ring.
Another of the bogus pieces was taken
in by a shopkeeper farther down town
a few days ago, but most of the mer-
chants and those accustomed to hand
ling coin are on the lookout for them
and promptly reject them when offered.

A slight variation in the tall man,
short man. hold-up was neatly per-
formed at the Leimbach saloon. 545 East

seems that the tall man has lost a few,
of his inches, or the short man has in
creased n:s stature, for the pair We're Of
equal height. They are novelties in the
hold-up world, having broken all tradi-
tons of the craft by destroying the dis
tinguishing marks which usually lead to-
the detection" Of the actors. /.
The two men, who are described as
slender and boyish looking, entered the
saloon from the front door while tbs
night barkeeper was engaged in cleao
ing up in front of the bar. Four men
were in the room at the time, all stand-
ing up at the bar. Both the intruders
drew their revolvers, one of the men
standing at the door with his gun point-
ed at the crowd. While the other Went
behind the bar and opened the CASH
register.

as he turned the cash into his pocket;

There was but $3.50 in the register.
He ransacked every one of the ten
drawers at the back of, the bar. growing
in the meantime about man who would
hide all his wealth and not give an
honest; hard-working shighw4s1nen Y
chance. Finally he spied the cigArj cas- s.
"Well, here's something good" he sail,
as he poured a box of Havanas into his
capacious pockets.
All this time he kept his revolver ready
for use. working with one hand opening
the drawers and rummaging for hidden
wealth. The other man at the door kept
the crowd covered. He was green and
excited. for he stood partly in the door,
where he could have been seen or at
tackled from the street. The doors were
covered with screens, and il closed no
one could see in.
When the hold-ups had satisfied them
selves that there was no more money
to be had they went out, and were heard
Gathering up Atlantic street towards the
hill.
They had evidently planned their work
pretty we'll. A patrolman had been at
the corner but Ave minutes before, and
rang in his call at the box across the
! street before continuing his beat on Gas

got we'll out Of the way before making
their venture.
Tom Murphy, the bartender, is positive
he could identify the men il he should
see them again, though both were

NICARAGUA GIVES NO SIGN.

Reciprocity May Fall If an Attempt for
Renewal Is Not Made.
Washington, June 20.-The time al
lowed by the protocols for the ex-
change Of Publications Of the reciproc-
ity treaty with Nicaragua expires on
the Goth by limitation. Indications are
that this treaty will not be extended
by supplementary article, as was
done in the case of most of the other
reciprocity treaties. The Nicaraguan
government has been apprised of the
approaching lapse of the treaty, but so
far has not signified it's purpose to
extend it. The reciprocity treaty with
Ecuador is now before the congress of
that country. The finance committee,
to which it was referred, has reported
adversely upon the convention, but
from reports received here it is believ-
ed that this action does not necessarily
foreshadow rejection of the treaty.
