gathered much valuable data in regard
to the newspapers of the state, tracing
their history as far back as fifty years.
Then there were but five papers in the

newspapers, with eight METROPOLITAN
dailies in the Twin Cities, two at Du-

You all know how Douglass was re-

he was welcomed by the greatest men

trodden race and his ambition to do some
thing more than live out the life that
had been given him caused him to return
when he had accomplished what he went
for.
Mrs T. H. Lyles spoke briefly, her
address being an earnest appeal that
in the great need of honor accorded
to Frederick Douglass the less con-
spicuous but equally effective services
of Mrs. Douglass be not forgotten. 1t
was Annie Murray Douglass, she said,
who inspired Frederick Douglass to
run away from slavery and promised
to furnish him funds from her earn
ings and to join him when he had
gained his freedom and to become his
wife. 1t was she who was Frederick
Douglass brave, faithful helpmate and
who helped him in every part of his
work in the interest of his race.

ST. PAUL WOMAN DOES .
NEAT DETECTIVE JOB
BY Her Quick Wit She Catches
Thief Who Had Stolen
Her Rings.

A woman's quick wit and ingenuity
has led to the capture and conviction
of a sneak thief under peculiar cir
cumstances. A set Of false teeth fur
nished clue which professional
detective would probably have over
looked.
Jan. 10 Mrs. Mile Clough, who con-
ducts dental parlors in the Grand opera
house block in ST. Paul, called at the
Sutherland dental rooms. 429 Nicollet
avenue, Minneapolis. In the reception
room she laid on the cashiers desk
purse containing three diamond rings
and several dollars in money. AS she
went into one of the operating rooms
she noticed a man and woman passing
out. A few moments later when she
returned her purse was gone. 1t was
a foregone conclusion that the man
was the thief for he was in a position
to observe Mrs. Clough put her purse
on the table. Mrs. ClOugh only no
ticed him casually and at first de-
SPARED Of ever tracing him. She
learned that the woman had ordered
a plate for set of upper teeth, and
that a wax impression had been taken.
It's popularity was that it was higher
on one side than the other.
Thief Is Quickly Caught.
Mrs. CIough jumped to the conclu-
sion that the woman would not come
back but would go to some other dem
fist. She Immediately notified by tele-
phone the dentists in both cities, CIV
ing description of the man and
woman as well as she could, but par
ticularly Of the impression of the
woman's teeth. She was correct in
her theory, for the next day the man
and woman called at the dental Office
of DR.. H. S. Ray, 329 Nicollet avenue.
AS soon as the dentist had taken the
impression of the Woman's teeth he
was certain Of her identity, but to
make sure notified DR.. Beede, at the
Sutherland office, who had taken the
original impression. DR.. Beede recog-
nized the woman and the man and they
were placed under arrest.
The man proved to be Frank Meyers,
known to the police as thief who has
three times served penitentiary SEN
fences. The woman was his accom-
plice. They were both indicted and
Meyers was last Monday convicted of
grand larceny and is awaiting SEN
tence.
Detective DeLaittre traced one Of
Mrs. Cloughs rings to a Washington
avenue saloonkeeper with whom the
woman had pawned it, which estab-
fishes her connection with the theft,
and she is to be tried soon.
