VICTIM OF ROBBERY.
Louis B. Stone Loses $3.50, Proceeds Of
a Sale

pathetic story Of robbery was told last
night by an elderly man named Louis B.
Stone who is eighty-two years old. He
was in his house at 1926 Colfax street
northeast last night he said, when a
stranger called. While the man was in
the house he took $3.50 from Mr.. Stones
pocket. He had the money wrapped in a
piece of rag. In another pocket he had
$40 which was overlooked.
Stone went to Rochester, n. Y, few
days ago and returned with more than
$500. the proceeds Of the sale of piece
of property there Neighbors knew he had
the money. The house in which he lives is
a one-story frame shack. He owns this
house and the adjoining shack. He lived
in one of the two rooms in the small Struc-
ture. The other room was occupied by a
colored man up to short time ago. Boards
had been taken from the partition and
Stone and the colored man were practically
in one room.
Colfax street is near the dump in the
northeast section of the city, and the eld-
erly occupant of the shack spent most of
his time about the dump crushing pieces of
brick and stone which he sold to contract
ors. He has been about the dump many
years and was known to drivers of teams
and others who had occasion to visit there.
Many of them looked upon him as man
of considerable wealth and were under the
impression that he had his money hidden
about the premises Last nights affair
indicated that at least one man knew he
had money in his pockets
Stone had finished his days work and
gone to his humble home where he pre-
pared and ate his supper. After eating he
sat on a chair near a table upon which
was an oil lamp. He was enjoying a rest,
but was startled presently by an intruder
who entered and extinguished the light.
Then the latter grabbed Stone about his
waist and pinioned his arms while he went
through his pockets.
The robbery was completed in a short
time and the robber departed Weak and
excited, Mr.. Stone went to the ninth pre-
cinct police station and reported his loss.
He told the police Of how the robbery was
committed and also told the names of peo-
pie who probably knew that he had obtain
ed the money from the sale mentioned
Several colored men were arrested on sus-
picion, but were subsequently released.

room and 1879 wholesale liquor licenses.
In addition to these 2SS licenses were is
sued to engineers upon certificates of the
board of examiners. This is a decrease
from the number issued in the fiscal year
1903, and is occasioned by the fact that in
the latter year a number of licenses were
issued twice to one licensee This was be-
cause the new license law, including in its
provisions many persons who had not there
tofore been licensed, went into operation
July 1, 1902, and all persons who were
amendable to licenses and had not already
procured the same were required TO do so
for the period July l to October 81, 1903,
and on November 1 to renew them. The
total receipts from licenses during 1904 were
$500, 3S1. 40, making a net decrease of SILL

In closing his report Mr.. Darnellle takes
occasion to express his appreciation of
the support of the Commissioners. and of
the faithful and efficient manner in which
his employees have performed their duties.

AN OBJECT LESSON
IN A RESTAURANT.

physician puts the query Have you never
noticed in any large restaurant at lunch or dinner
time the large number of hearty, vigorous old men
at the tables men whose ages run from sixty
eighty years; many of them bald and all perhaps
gray. but none Of them feeble senile?
Perhaps the spectacle is so common TO have
escaped your observation comment but never
tteless 1t is object lesson which means some
thing.
If YOU will notice what these hearty old fellows
eating, you will observe that they are not

way through :. menu card of new-fangled health
foods: on the contrary, they to prefer Juicy
roast of beef, properly turned loin of mutton,

The point of all this is that a vigorous old age
depends upon good digestion and plenty CT whole
some food and not upon dieting and endeayor
to live upon bran crackers.
There is certain class of food cranks who seem
to believe that meat. coffee and many other good
things rank poison, but these cadaverous.

resolution was adopted to the
effect that farmers are unable to

under the existing contracts with

pany, and a committee was ap
pointed 10 wait upon that company
and ask for flat rate Of IS per

factories in the northern part cs
the state have recently granted a
similar demand made by the grow
ers Of that section. aud as the fac

probable that the American Beet
Sugar Company will grant the de

The year OF 1904 promises to be
= very interesting one. In the
FIRST place il is leap year. and
means that. aside from the fact
that it is one day longer thsa COM
mon years, il is a period during
which unusual privileges are by
general consent gwen to women.
The year commenced on Friday
and the superstitious will therefore
be inclined to look upon il with
some suspicion. But il need moi
be feared that the year 1904 will
be at all unlike other years because
il happened to commence on FRI
day. Ordinarily the year closes
on the day on which it commences,
but when leap year occurs the sddi'
tionof the extra day carries the
closing OF the year over another day
and so this year will close on Satur'
day.
II is the year OF presidential
election, and election day will fall
as late in November as it is posi-
BILE for election day 10 come--on
