THEFTs REPORTED.
Purse Snatchers In the Form Of Small
Negro Boys Appear.

Purse snatchers have begun to OPP
crate in Paducah and seem at pres
ent to be confined to small negro
boys.
The first case OF purse snatohing
was reported to the police last night
by Miss Fannie Abrams mother.
Mrs. Abrams was walking on Monroe
street late yesterday afternoon. Near
Sixth street three negro boys about
/ 3 years old slipped up behind her
and snatched her purse. They ran
into the alleys. separating from each
other. and escaped.
Last night police noticed 49,
year-old negro boy wearing glasses
and gave chase. The purse snatched
from Mrs. Abrams contained $t0.S5,
set OF fine eye glasses and other
small articles The glasses worn by
the boys tailed with the description
of Mrs. Abrams. The boys disap-
peared into alleys and escaped again.
The detectives are carefully watch
ing in all crowds to detect purse
snatchers, and nope to catch them.
Many OF the big stores down town
have employed special officers Ia
watch their stores and thus ward of
many thefts that are reported during
the holidays.

MIDNIGHT BLAZE In /

Badly Damaged by Fire.
II is Fully Covered by Insurance
Red Mems Hall Damaged
Slightly.
m Is ALSO FULLY INSURED.

A blaze was discovered in the
second story of the John l.. Jones
furniture house on North Fourth st.
between Broadway and Jefferson this
morning about 1870 o'clock by Mer-
chants Policeman James Presnell,
who ran across the street and noti-
fed the members of Central Fire. sta
ton.
The firemen FASTENED to the build
ing and soon had several streams
playing on the blaze. The fire seems
to have originated in a pile of mat
tresses. Workmen had yesterday been
engaged in packing on the second
floor and had fire in the stove. and
it is supposed the blaze last night
originated from a hot coal falling on
the floor.
The stock was badly damaged by
fire and water. The company had de-
cided sometime ago to abandon its
local branch house and a deal was
on to sell out, but had not been con-
summated. Mr.. Jones estimates his
loss at $4,000 or $1,000, with $4,000
Insurance.
The building is owned by Colonel
John Sinnott, and is fully insured.
On the third floor is The Red Mems
handsome hall and club rooms.
The fire did not reach the Red
Mems hall but the smoke damaged
the fresco work on the walls and the
water injured the floor. The floor is
used as a dance hail, and is one of
the best in the city. The damage is es-
timated at few hundred dollars, full
ly covered by insurance.
The lodge has little furniture in
the room, but the painting on the
walls is very fine, the lodge rooms
being decorated in the finest style
and by an expert frescoe artist. The
total insurance carried Is $1,000.
The total policies carried are:

people to believe that the division Of

next year, and also that the terminal
point for the runs may also be moved
back to Fort Dodge
The officers stated that while they
had no proof of anything of this kind,
that there seemed little doubt but what
the Great Western would ultimately
make Fort Dodge the division head
quarters. The new passenger station
in course of erection here has two
floors, which are being fitted up for
offices. Furthermore the office build
ing at Clarion is altogether inadequate
for the company's needs, and 1t was
put up in too cheap a manner to re-
main good long. Already the building
is badly cracked, because of the walls
settling.
The engine and trainmen have also
had the matter up, of moving the ter
minal point to Fort Dodge, as the run
from Clarion to Omaha is too long.
The Clarion roundhouse is also a very
cheap structure, and is settling badly
already, and will not be fit for use
very long.

is being brought forward by his friends
as candidate but the State Untver-
sity will object to him for the reason
that Prof Barrett is president Of the
college conference which meets here
at the same time as the state assoc
citation and they will advance the ar
gument that the state college ought not
expect two such offices. On the other
hand the state college will object and
does object to Prof. F. E. Bolton of the
State University who in two years will
be in line for the position of chairman
Of the executive committee and it is
argued ought not to expect to be taken
out of his turn and made president.
Besides the other colleges will object
to state institutions holding both pres
ident of the college conference and the
state association. w. H. Betz of Cornell
is candidate, but four years ago when
the college section held the position of
president, President Shelton of Simp-
son College, Methodist institution, was
president and the other UNCONVENTIONAL
colleges now claim that Methodist in
situations ought not expect to hold the
position every time it comes to the col
lege section and hence Betz Is counted
out of the race. That narrows the
contest down to j. III. r. Main, of Grin
nell, and thus far there has nothing
been found wrong with him other than
that some people just object to him be-
cause they don't want him. These
are the only candidates out for the
position thus far. The position goes to
a college man through the time hon
ored custom Of rotating the office be-
tween the college section, county sec
ton, city section, and secondary school
section. j. II. Mcconnell, of Cedar
Rapids, city superintendent is presi-
dent now. The presidents position is
alleged to be pretty much Of a figure
head position as the executive COM
mittee is the real power in the state
teachers association and yet there is
big clamor for the honor Of hold
