While a large crowd of people were
crowding into one Of the cars Of the
Spokane passenger train a farm hand
discovered a man rif1ing his pocket.
He turned around and grabbed the big
fellow, who dropped on the floor $40 in
gold that he had taken from the farm
er's pocket. the pickpOcket managed
to get away and ran back to the Pull
man, but was not allowed to enter by
the conductor In the meantime the
passengers and the train crew had
been informed of what had taken place
and they started after the thief. Not
being able to get through the car the
man jumped off and started for the
freight house. The train crew, the
farmer and the hack drivers were fol-
lowing close behind, when the man
jumped under the freight house plat
form. Crawling under the platform he
came out on the other side and started
on a run down the street. The crowd

Another Attempt Renorted.

This morning another attempt to
drug an Italian was reported to the
police. A labOrer, who gave his name
as Barivera, informed the police that

a man answering the description of

mans throat. Realizing that every
t:.ing was not right the man hunted up
officer Wolf and informed him of the
condition of FOye. The officer went
into the saloon and found the three
men in the box. He placed Nassau
AMI Hutchins under arrest and then
telephoned for a hack and sent Foye to
ST. Mary's hospital.
When Nassau and Hutchins were ar
rested Officer Wolf searched them and
found $40 in gold in Hutchins' pocket.
AS the two men were being taken
through the saloon to Jail Hutchins
tossed another $40 gold piece to the
bar keeper with the request that he
keep it for him a few days. Nothing
was found on the person of Nassau.
When questioned neither one of them
would have anything to say, further
than that they had all been drinking
and Foye had fallen asleep while they
were sitting in the box.
AS soon as Foye was taken to the
hospital Officer Wolf summoned DR.. G..
P. Cannon who went to the hospital
and made an examination of the man.
He was of the opinion that the man
had been doped and he worked with
him some time in an effort to revive
him. He was unable to arouse him and
he then called in DR.. f. f. Shaw. The
two physicians then labored for two
hours, but were unable to bring the
man out of his stupor, but by admins
tering antidotes, they succeeded in get
ting him to breathe easier Up to noon
today he had not yet gained complete

be predicted by the physicians.

He spent considerable money about the
saloons during the day. and about 4
O'Clock this morning he walked into the
Congress saloon, there ne met Hutchins
and Nassau. They had several drinks
together and then Nassau suggested
that they go back to one of the boxes.
Foye consented and they were found
there by the officer. 1t is supposed that

railroad men kept guard over him until
Chief of Police Brown arrived and
placed him under arrest.
After the train pulled out several
other persons reported to the police
that they had also been robbed. One
farmer had purchased a ticket for some
station in Whitman county and had
put $50 in his pocket. When he got
on the train he discovered that the
money was missing. Another man re-
ported that he had lost a gold watch
and still another person reported that
hos pockets had been picked and he
was minus $40.
When the stranger who was arrest
ed was taken to the city Jail by Chief
Brown, he was searched, and only IS in
gold and 10 cents in silver was found
in mis- possession.
1t is supposed that he had a confed-
crate and when he had robbed the peo-
pie he turned the money and watch
over to him.
The man and two other tough look
ing characters were seen hanging
about the depot yesterday and early
this morning. Just before the train
arrived and while the passengers were
purchasing their tickets these men
were noticed standing very close to the
ticket window, and it is supposed that
at that time they spotted their victims

So If you, Miladi, are to be a bride,
think it over well. Don't let any one
gently talk you into wearing the veil if
you are convinced in your own mind
that it adds one day to your age or
detracts one whit from your appear
ance. Be honest with yourself and do
precisely as you please. If there is to
be any buzzing about you and your

as though it was getting just a bit too
primeval to insist on putting on the
tulle for the first time after every
thing else is in READINGS for it, One

about suggesting this that and the

for fear she may cut her happiness in

place a kibosh of any kind upon her
ladyship to gather the fragile fabric
into her hands and see for herself
whether the effect is pleasing or other
wise.
The gown is tried on. so why should
the tulle be relegated to the cedar chest
until the eleventh hour? Surely the
gods ought to pardon this one breach,
for if one ever wants to look pretty it
is on ones wedding day, and every
thing should be done to enhance the
beauty that nature has seen fit to
withhold or bestow.
The bridal veil is guaranteed to add
half dozen years to anybody's age,
unless, perhaps, it is the lassie yet in
her early teens. The regular featured
blonde or brunette who is still in her
youth, or who by some mystic power
has the blessed faculty of making her
friends think she is, is the >one who
should hold up her hands in holy
horror at the very idea of discarding
the white symbol, for she rarely If

very essence of innocence and fresh
sweetness.
Under the most favorable conditions
wells are trying things to handle, for
they never fail to act as though they
had been lightly touched by the imp OF

over the face the back spreads out sixty
ways for Sunday, and when the back
effect is pretty and soft the front flies
fwilly-willy over the face and ruins
what otherwise would have been an ex-
tremely attractive picture.
True, some brides are wearing the
veil thrown back from the face. and
in that event they may be daintily ar
ranged, but does that convey the senti-
mental idea that 1t has always por-
trayed? The veil has stood as a float
ing white symbol of purity and youth
and has been used as covering for the
face for generations and generations.
If one departs from the idea to that ex-
tent, why not dispense with it entirely
and save the heartburns and bitter
tears of modification that are the result
of hearing such aniable little speeches
as: MY, never dreamed she was half
as old! Why, she looked a thousand
