c. ". THOMAS
IS MISSING
Left Home at an Early Hour
This Morning.
Searching Parties Securing the
Countrywide Clew to His Where
abouts-Probably Temporal
rily Deranged.

One of the deepest mysteries which
Florence has ever been called upon to
umayel, was the disappearance at an
early hour this morning of 9. W.
Thomas, one of the jewelers. of this
city.
Mr.. Thomas, who has been in rather
delicate health, has made IA practice
for some time past of rising early in
the morning and taking long walk
before breakfast.
This morning he arose about . 80
as usual and left the house. Mrs.
Thomas got up later and prepared
breakfast. She expected that he
would be gone about an hour or an
hour and a half at most. She waited
nearly two hours, then she and the
child ate their breakfast. Mrs
Thomas began her morning duties
about the house, but as time went on,
and her husband did not return a
great fear took hold ON her. She
left the house about 10 O'Clock and
came up town to the store, but it had
not beeu unlocked. Then. she gave
the alarm.
In short time searching parties
We're organized by members of the l.
o. o. F., of which order the missing
man il member. Judge Lockard
took charge of the search, the mar
shal being occupied in the search for
the burglars who visited the city last
night
The search has been careful and
systematic but up to 3 O'Clock no
clew to the whereabouts of the man
had been discovered.
A representative of The Tribune
called upon Mrs. Thomas this after
noon. She is nearly frantic with
grief, for she fears her husband has
met with foul play. She says there
has been nothing in her husband
manner that would suggest mental
alteration, and that while he often
worried over business matters, he
never seemed despondent. Their
home life, she says, was always a
happy one
The store was left just as Mr..
Thomas always leaves it, and he evil
IDENTIFY took no money with him,
There was rumor atioat at one
time that Mr.. Thomas had walked to
ORC Junta and taken the train to
Cripple Creek. Conductor Brown who
had charge of the train, told Trib-
une man this afternoon that he was
well acquainted with Thomas, and
that he was positive he was not on
the train. Several rumors of this
kind were heard on the sire cts, but
ON being traced up they were found
to be without foundation.
This afternoon two large parties are
continuing the search along the river
east of town. One squad is under
Judge Lockard and the other under
Ed Furniss
There is much speculation as to the
manner of Mr.. Thomas disappear
ance, but the theory most generally
during period of temporary mental
de angement.

TWO HOUSES
BURGLAR|zED

Mrs. Carrethers Entered.
Bold and Daring Sneak Thieves
Secure Gold Watch and Gold
Rings-When Discovered
Quietly Made Their Exit.

Burglars entered the residence of
w. Z. Burley early this morning
through one of the back windows by
prying off the screen which was
nailed on and then prying open the
window. After gaining an entrance
which they did systematically and
quietly. Mr.. and Mrs. w. E. Burley
were sleeping in one of the rooms,
and as the burglars left the house they
made noise, which aroused Mrs.
Burley. She awakened Mr.. Burley,
and on looking through the house
they found three fine gold rings and IA
watch and chain missing total value
about 5000. The robbers had taken
Mr.. Burley's vest, the watch being in
one of the pockets. This morning the
vest was found in buggy on East
Third street by Mr., Booking. So
far as known this happened about 3
o clock this morning.
Just at 1915 a. m. Mrs. NJ Fl Car
rethers who runs boarding house on
West Main street was aroused and on
looking around in the room she saw
two men at the dresser kneeling down
Mrs, Carrethers called to them ask
ing them what they were doing there.
They made no reply but quietly
arising to their feet turned and walked
out of the house They had not been
in the house very long as they had
not disturbed very many things. So
far as known there is nothing miss
ing. They gained an entrance from
the back porch by prying open a
window. Once inside they proceeded
to unlock the doors and put the keys
in their pockets. They We're appar-
emily very well dressed in dark clothes
and slouch hats. One was smooth
shaven, both being tall and slim.
City Marshal Tabor telephoned to
the warden of the penitentiary and
asked for the bloodhounds One dog
arrived on No 2 at 1886 and was
taken to the residence of W. f.
Burley, but did not seem inclined to
take the scent. 1t was thought that
another trial of the dogs wisdom
would be made this afternoon.
Several minor burglaries were also
reported this morning. Someone en-
tered Mrs d. K McRae's barn and
appropriated saddle and bride. II.
j. Rides barn is just across the way
and number of articles are also mis-
sing from there.
W H. Davie Sr., reports the loss of
wheelbarrow and some carpenter
tools.
Someone entered W. II. Porter's
house and either ate or carried away
all the eatables in the ice box
Lateral 4 O'Clock this after
noon two suspects were landed in Jail
and Marshal Tabor and Constable
Green believe they have the parties
who last night qurglarized the Bur
ley residence.

To-day The EXAMINER presents to it's
readers sort of Christmas souvenir edition.
1t has been published in this form in order
that it might be more conveniently kept for
reference, there being many things within it's
pages that will come handy in the future to
refer to-
In presenting such an edition it is al
ways customary to say something of the
paper, which IS responsible for the produc-
ton
In the first place the EXAMINER is near
ing the completion of it's eighth year as a
newspaper. From a small worn out second
hand plant, poorly equipped with presses
and type it has grown till now it's work is
done with new and modern machinery.
apower driven, and the very latest and most
beautiful type faces, as the following pages
will attest. From no business at all, it has
steadily built up one of the best patronages
OF any country paper in Idaho
The one thing responsible for til growth
is the constant aim to give the patrons of
the paper, full worth for their money. To
attain this has required persistent and hard
work OH the part of the publisher, and the
ready response Of the patrons to his efforts
The publishing of a country newspaper
at best, is no pink tea matter. Lack of
money to begin with, failure to constantly
haye a bright and readable paper every
week errors and omissions of news breveties
concerning people and events. and hundred
other vicissitudes, lend anything, but pleas.
IRE to the business and yet the editor of the
weekly goes with his work, hoping that
he millennium will some day put in an APP
Rearance, at which time he expects to find
ais path strewn with roses, and every person
the community counted as his friend and
Exporter.
While our work hasn't always been
Elrnished with effervescent joy yet we have,

Ranifested by our patrons and the people
fneraly. For this and many other acts of
fhdness, We are deeply thankful.

School Libraries.
By PROF. l.. b ALLISON,

1.-THE annual meeting OF the teach
ers of Bates county, held in Butler,
Friday and Saturday the 2Sth and
10Th OF November, the subject OF
Public School Libraries was fully and
interestingly discussed by the teach
ers present. The insufficiency of the
present school law, relative to Libra
ries, was clearly set forth and a petit
ton to our Representative and the
State Superintendent was drawn up,
by a committee appointed for that
purpose, and signed by every teacher
present, said petition asking that the
law pertaining to the procuring and
maintaining of school libraries, be
mandatory with penalty attached, in
order that the provisions of the law
may be duly complied with. The
utility OF a well selected library was
fully recognized and held as impor-
tant factor in school work. Lack OF
such aid in a majority OF the schools
in the county, is quite clearly shown
in the following report Of the teachers
OF the county; represented at this In
stitute. A competent committee
should be chosen for the county,
whose duties should be to select the
kind Of books most suitable for a
school library, 30 that the Directors
OF every district in the county may
know to whom to apply for reliable
information, respecting the selecting
of books, best adapted to their needs.
Anew districts have been imposed up
on by peripatetic school book agents
who care only to make sale, re.
CARELESS of the real wants OF the boys
and girls, who are to read the books
provided for them. Let a committee
be chosen to aid the school directors
in making the proper choice Of books.
The subjoined reports show a
somewhat deplorable state Of affairs
regarding our, school libraries. The
thirty or more reports may be regard
ed as a fair average Of the condition
Of the schools Of Bates county. 1t is
to be hoped that a general awaken.
ing among teachers, school officers
and parents will take place, in order
that this needed want Of the schools
