Centerville, April 4.-One of the
most original and one of the boldest
pickpockets who have operated in this
country was captured OH a Rock Island
passenger train at this place early
Saturday morning while chloroform-
ing the passengers and separating
them from their articles of value.
For several weeks the Rock Island
officials have received complaints
along the main line that their passen-
gers had lost valuables, money and
jewelry, and the trainmen had not
been able to detect the operation of
detectives in the employ of the COM
pany were detailed on thecase and their
efforts We're rewarded Saturday morn
ing at 3 o'clock by discovering the
robber In the midst of his operations.
Used Chloroform to Aid Him.
The burglar had contrived unique
means of going thru the pockets Of
his victims while they knew nothing
of the episode. He had bought bot
tie of chloroform and quantity of
cotton cloth, and had set to work in a
way to utterly disarm suspicion. A
small strip of the cotton cloth would
be wound around finger and tied
with a thread, to indicate q local
wound. Then the robber would pro-
vide himself with a late daily paper,
take a, seat beside traveller who
looked as tho he had money, and was
doing (the mans robberies were al
ways In the latter part of the night,
become greatly interested (?) in some
story or bit of news. In stretching out
the arms the finger wrapped with the
rag that had been saturated with
chloroform would be brought In close
juxtaposition to the victims nose, and
natural sleep would give way to an
unnatural stupor. Then the pick
pocket would take his time to make n
thorough ransacking of the victims
pockets.
Carried Knockout Drops.
When the scheming burglar was ar
rested and his grip searched it was
found to contain a bottle of knock
cut drops and large bottle of chloro-
form. The method of administering
the drops was as unusual as had been
the searching of pockets after chloro-
forming. The robber would help him
self to a drink of water and then ask
il the gentleman sitting next to him
wished a drink. II the latter should
reply that he did. the robber would
get the water for him. While at the
water tank the nickpockat would
