PPOSED SAFE BREAKERS

Tampa Morning Tribune: A huge
sigh of relief will break from the bos-
oms of South Florida people when they
learn that three men are under ar
rest, supposed to be the ones who have
committed so many daring burglaries
IN this part of the state during the
past few months. The criminals paid
especial attention to breaking into
safes, and if they succeed in break
ing into the penitentiary in the same
artistic and competent manner, much
OF the past will be forgiven. A detec-
tive sent to st. Augustine two weeks
ago by the Tampa police department
Yesterday arrested two white men, by
the names of Ward and Stafford
charged with being members of the
gang. At the same time City Detec-
i've Frank Bell of Tampa arrested an
other white man, one Hopkins on the
same charge. Capt. Bell also is keep
ing close surveillance over two white
women, whom he has strong reasons
Tor believing were accessories in the
crimes. Leesburg, Anthony, Crescent
Slty, Inverness, Crystal River, Barlow,
Iarpon Springs and many other places
were honored by up-to-date safe crack
lngs presumably at the hands of the
same gang

asked him what he wanted for it.
He said so cents, and when we agreed
to the terms he climbed on board with
her At a glance l saw that it was
no ordinary cat, and asked the China
man where he got her Then he took
me aside and asked me for the sake
of all the Chinese deities to keep quiet
1T was the King of Slams cat, he
whispered, and it was because the
agents of his majesty were putting up
such a relentless chase that he decided
to dispose of her.
About that time a government craft
came alongside and asked US where
we were going. 1 replied New York.
and added that we had just arrived
from Hong Kong. That convinced the
sleuth who was looking for the cat
that we did not have her on board
since it would have been impossible
for us to get her at Hong Kong, as
that port was eleven days out at Sing
apore, and the cat had then been miss
ing less than a week. You want to
know why 1 did not tell King Chula-
longkorne men that we had the ami
NAL? Well, it was for the very good
reason that if we did the whole bunch
would have been Jailed, and it would
have taken the British consul gem
eral week at least to get us out
Yes, we are going to take the cat
back, but we will keep her out of
sight when we touch at Singapore.

the warrant. and said he guessed if l
said the hydrant was running, it was
running, so he asked Van what the
fine was. Van told him SO 10, and he
paid right up.
You know 1910 was the regular
fine for everything. We figured it UP
this way: The policeman got 50 40,
the judge 50 and the balanceS 1870
went to the city.
only once was a. man fined less
than $9.1O in Boulder City while 1
was there, and that happened this
way There was some railroad work
going on Just outside of the town,
and one night 1 arrested thirty-three
of the gang, who had come in town
for a drunk, and all got mixed UP in
a saloon fight. They were all Bo-
hemians, or something like that, and
Dagoes, and couldn't speak a word of
English, so the contractor came in
court to take care of them. He asked
us what the fine was. and when we
told thin, he said he would pay it.
Now, he was a mighty fine fellow, and
a good friend of mine and the
Judges, too, ever since he had been
living in the town. l calculated that
thirty-three men at 1910 would be a
little hard on him, and, besides, being
so many of 'em, 1 could afford to put
a wholesale price on 'em, so 1 said to
the judge to just take off 81 from
my share of the fine on each one. The
judge said, too, being it was so many
of. 'em for one man to pay for, he
would take off his SO from each one,
so he only had to pay $40 on each
one. OF course, l wasn't in the bust
ness for my health. so 1 just left
40 cents on each one. and took off
the 81, calculating that the 1920 l
made on the whole bunch paid me
we'll enough for my nights work in
breaking up the fight and arresting
them.
1T was hard work sometimes. es-
pecially when the miners came to
town, but we made good money at it.
AS I told you already, 1 got S2.40
apiece, and sometimes they came
farther than you could take 'em. l
got a dollar for every dog 1 caught
without a collar and tag, and $3.50 if
1 arrested the owner. l made good
deal of money impounding cattle, too.
AS | said before he always ends up,
1--WE had to work for our money, but
it was one of the best-paid police in
tho world "

SLAMS SACRED CAT.
And How 1t Was Pressed Into Serv-
ice as an Ordinary Rat-Catcher.

And How 1t was PRESSED INTO SerN-
ice as an Ordinary Rat-Catcher.
From the New York Times.
After narrowly escaping being sent
to the bottom of the Gulf of Pechili by
a floating Russian mine, and with the
sacred cat of King Chulalongkorn of
Siam, for the return of which a re-
ward of 81 900 is outstanding, on board,
the New York and Oriental Steamship
Company's liner Satsuma has reached
this port Chief officer Hodges, the
guardian of "Siamese Jane" says there
would be high doings in the Siamese
Kings court if it were known that
his precious pet has brought into the
world five more sacred cats, all Of
which are enjoying perfect health and
may be seen any day gamboling on the
deck of the Satsuma.
1T was just this way" said the chief
officer, land l don't want you to doubt
for a moment anything l am about to
tell you, for the whole story is as true
as the stars, and the records are on
file in Siam to prove it. We left Hong
Kong on June IL and arrived at Singa-
pore on the 25th. We did not dock at
Singapore, but anchored in the harbor,
and received our cargo from lighters
and junks. We noticed at the time
that lot of government vessels We're
about, closely scrutinizing all the
craft in the harbor, especially such
small vessels and junks as came down
the river from Bangkok. We, OF course
were interested in these strange pro-
ceedings, and inquired what it was all
about, and were surprised to learn-that
King Chulalongkorns cat was missing,
and that a big reward was offered for
her return and the capture of her alb
ductors.
1.-The Satsuma was simply overrun
with rats at that time, and we were
on the lookout for a good cat, and did
not care a, whit whether she belonged
to the sacred or everyday tramp spe-
cies. 1t was a little before shutdown,
and we were getting ready to sail,
when a junk came alongside and
Chinaman asked us If we wanted a
fine cat. We replied that we did, and

-FOUR WE'RE SHOT.

AS the result of what seems to have
been a general negro fight Sunday at
Mt. Calvary, hard shell negro church,
a few miles south of Eatonton, four
negroes were wounded. Dave Parham,
Parker Waller and William Clarke
were each shot in the leg. and Lige
Parham in the hand. While some of
the wounds are very painful, none are
considered serious. The fight occurred
at or near the spring, some distance
from the church, and is said to have
been the outgrowth of a game of
craps, or some other game, at which
the crowd was betting.

A dispatch from Carrollton says:
Justice j. T. Norman of this city pro-
cured a marriage license ordered by
telephone from Bowden, eighteen miles
southwest of here, in this county, for
the marriage of Mr.. James Finch and
Miss Mary Frias. With the license
in hand here he propounded the ques-
lions in the matrimonial ceremony
and the operator at Bowden acted as
interpreter and sealed the contract.
They were clipping parties who came
over from neighboring counties in
Alabama. These telephone weddings

WEST vIRGINIAxs APPEARED
To Discuss Matters at National
Headquarters.

New York. Aug. pam interesting
feature of the day at Democratic ma
tional headquarters was the appear
ance OF John 7. McGraw, member of
the committee from West Virginia,
and number of his close political
friends from that state. The visit at
this time was to discuss the situation
in West Virginia with the members
of the Executive Committee, and dur
ing the day they conferred with Chair
man Taggart, Vice Chairman Nicoll,
August Belmont and Thomas F. Ryan.
They urged that a vigorous campaign
in that state be started at once. They
also said that the one fear that the
Democrats of the state have was the
colonization of negroes from Virginia
and great care would be necessary to
prevent this from being done.

"A Frenchman, NJ. Challeat has in
vented a new sash, which he thinks
will keep every one who wears it from
drowning. The article is made of
India rubber, but inside it is placed a
little box containing a certain quantity
of one of the compounds of calcium.
When the sash comes in contact with
the sea the compound calcium decom-
poses and produces a quantity of gas
sufficient to initiate the sash and pre-
serve it's wearer from any risk of
death by drowning. Experiments
have been made with this new idea
and so far they have bene satisfactory.

Henderson of the City Court of Vienna
