Bag Hobo With
Glib Tongue.

John Scheip, twenty-five years old, a
gentlemanly sort of hobo, and wenn-
known to the heads Of police departments
of this city and elsewhere, was seen by
Detectives Dan Lee and Bob Pearson
about to enter Montgomery street lodg-
ing house, last night. They accosted him.
They were on the look out for suspicious
characters, and incidentally clue to the
three men who attempted to hold up
Druggist Trautman in his store at Boule-
ward and Linden avenue. Greenville, on
Thursday night Sheip was known by de-
scription as a suspicious person His an
swers did not satisfy the two detectives.
IF you don't believe my story" he said,
take me before Chief Murphy. He knows
me and he'll believe it,
II guess that's what we had better do
said Pearson to Lee.
& scheip vent along willingly.
The trio reached Chief Murphy's Office
about nine o'clock The two detectives
were dismissed and the Chief and Scheip
had a "heart-to-heart'' talk.

recall You as the young man who was
doing some detective work year or 80
ago in this city-hunting up the where
abouts Of Boston Shorty" wanted on a
charge of murder in Western PennsyI-
vania."
I'm the chap said Seheip.
The Chief asked lot of questions about
what he had been doing since Scheip,
though an exceptionally bright fellow. be-
gan to lose his nerve. He figited uneasily
in his chair. Stammered some replies,
and excitedly asked
..Chief, is this a hand-up?'
The Chief either knows or has an idea
that Seheip is wanted in several cities.
It was decided to hold him as sus-
picious character. When he was stripped
Scheip was found to be d true cosnio-
polftan. He had on two neckties-one
made in Boston. Mass, and the other in
Terre Haute, Ind. His coat was made in
Binghampton, N. Y, and he wore an ex-
pensiye hat In his pockets were found

knew and seen only yesterday. There was
Brooklyn, given out by the Young Men S
Christian Association of that city. He
had 81 and over in his pockets. A menu
bership card of the New York House

and byiaws of said union bearing the name

EVERY time we open the gates we

Randall of the state fair this morning as
watched the long strings of trolley cars
letting people off at the rate Of 100 per-
sons per car. Asked If the big record for
Wednesday last year would be excelled
he replied with much assurance that it
would. There were 2S,76S paid admis-
sions on Wednesday in 1901 and the total
attendance was 34,046.

Good Roads Convention.
It Is not easy to work up great public
interest in the good roads movement at
the state fair. Most of the visitors are
mere sightseers and when they accident
ally wander into the institute hall they
do not remain long. But there are about
$50 loyal disciples constantly in attend
ance and as they are all prominent Off
Gals or members Of various commercial
and improvement associations the pro-
motors Of the convention, feel that they
are sowing good seed.

secretary of the Chamber Of Commerce at
Sault Ste. Marie, Mich, spoke on GOOD
Roads and Industrial Development"
A. w. Machan, superintendent of the
rural free delivery system, showed how
the Improvement Of = the country roads
would contribute greatly to the extern
sion of the rural mail delivery and make
it possible for nearly every farmer to
have mail delivered at his home every
morning.
Congressman Fred C. Stevens of St.

While the government had spent millions
on road work he doubted If the govern

st. Thomas, D. w. l., Sept. 3.-Steamers
from the island Of Martinique report that
when the eruption occurred Saturday a
column of fire shot up from the crater Of
the volcano about daybreak, which lighted
the heavens for hundreds Of miles. A
few minutes later this was followed by an
explosion with gigantic stream Of scald-

Morne Rouge was overwhelmed In an
instant and every soul in the place per-
ished. Ajoupa Bouillon was struck by the
river Of mud and flying volcanic stones
and not building was left standing.
The sea became terribly agitated when
the eruption occurred and a short time
afterward a tidal wave swept the whole
coast. LIE Carbet, a$village near the base
Of Mont Pelee, was flooded and many Of
the inhabitants drowned.
After the explosion more than a mile of
the east end Of the island sank into the
sea.
The inhabitants Of Martinique are panic

doomed to destruction, and they are ap-
pealing to the governor to furnish them

pavilion at this summer resort shortly
after 10 a. m.
Mayor Tom L. Johnson was escorted
across the bay from Sanduslzy to Celar

Mayor Johnson then spoke as follows:
Publicity No Remedy.
THE principles Of democracy, always
old, but never obsolete, confront us to-
day, both In local and in national ques-
lions. One Of these national questions
relates to trusts. For this evil our ad-

protect the public against monopoly, which
is the basis Of trusts? Men whose in

all but whose living expenses have in

for publicity? What Is needed is not ex-
animation Of the account books of the
| trusts; it Is the sweeping Of monopolies
