PICKPOCKET IS CAUGHT

M. J. BockhornI, With Aid of Policeman,
Runs Down Man Who Snatched
His Watch.

After an exciting chase Clarence e.
Bigg, a piekpocket who snatched a watch
from M. ]. Bockhorni in Borkland's sa-
captured on Robert street about o'clock
yesterday afternoon by Mr.. Bockhorni and
Officer Peters.
. Il had just stepped into the saloon for
a moment with a friend,'' said Mr.. Book
horni, president of the Lead Glass Manu-
featuring company, yesterday afternoon,
when this man Bigg, who was standing
at the other end of the bar, sided up to
me. He asked me what time it was and
as took out my watch he laughed. He
took the watch in his hand and looked at
it, saying that the spring in the case was
broken. Then 1 put the watch back in
my pocket.
Shortly ,afterward. continued Mr..

he slid around and ran out Of the door. Z

sidewalk. I wrested the watch from his
hand and then decided to capture him. He
backed away and darted into the saloon
through side door. l posted a couple of
colored men at the front to watch that
door, but as was returning one of them
called that the man was getting away. I
looked and saw him running toward Rob-

WINDFALL OF 1850
FOR SCHOOL BOARD
City Comptroller Accredits It to the
Excess of Personal Property
Valuation.

When the st. Paul board of school
inspectors counts it's cash next year it
will find itself $15,540 better off than a
year ago. City Comptroller Betz says
so, and he credits it to the boost which
st. Paul personal property valuations
received at the hands of the state
board of equalization some weeks ago.
The excess amounted to very nearly
100000.
Comptroller Betz is now engaged in
making a draft of the 1903 budget for
submission to the conference commit
tee. and the two bodies of the council
next month, and under the head Of
public schools he has placed credit Of
$707,640, the limit permitted by law.
Of this amount $4,000 is for the pur-
chase Of sites and the erection of new
buildings.
The sum named for school purposes
seems rather large, but the board says
it needs all it can get, and for this rea-
son the limit in figures has been insert
ed. The excess secured from the in
crease in valuation is apportioned to
maintenance, and the board says it can
use every cent Of the amount and more,
too.
The windfall of $4,000 comes as a
pleasant surprise to the board, and
every effort will be made to secure it's
retention in the budget, though there is
little fear of it being denied. The board
was given the limit in moneys last year,
and there is nothing to show but what
the same course will be followed this
year.
The amount for new buildings and
sites is not increased. 1t is the same as
last year.

Compound
FOR CLEANING AND PURI-
FLYING The BLOOD.
1t Removes the Germs of
Disease, Invigorates
and Rejuvenates.

Thousands Of men and women who
have neglected the work Of physical
regeneration in the summer months
are now carrying a burden Of disease.
In the majority of cases, impure and
poisoned blood and sluggish eircula-
ton are the direct causes Of suffering
and misery. Are you, dear reader, one
of the unhappy victims? If so, the life
stream must be made pure, the health
wreclzing laxity of the blood vessels
must be corrected, the nerves and It's
sues must be nourished. Paine's Gel
cry Compound is the medicine that
physicians recommend for the increase
OF pure blood in the arteries, and for
arousing the purifying organs to cast
off the impurities that give rise to dis
ease. Mr.. Jas. F. Hudson, Spring
Ridge, La, was a terrible sufferer from
impure blood: he tells how he Danish
ed his troubles:
From some cause my blood became
impure and resulted in boils and pim-
pies. At one time suffered from 27
bolls. No one can imagine what suf-
fered. tried sulphur, sarsaparillas
and other remedies, but no relief came.
Mr. Sebastian, a merchant whom
used to clerk for, handed me one of
your circulars and insisted that
should use Paine's Celery Compound.

boils We're not so numerous nor as
