Arrested in Vancouver.

Chester Bonebrake was arrested in
Vancouver. Wash, Tuesday night,
on a charge Of stealing a bicycle be-
longing to Lee Smith, of this city.
Bonebrake came to Dallas lastSpring
and secured employment as collector
for the Dallas Steam Laundry. After
working a short time, he suddenly
disappeared. Lee Smith, proprietor
Of the Dallas Cyclery, at once swore
out warrant for the young mans
arrest, alleging that he had taken a
bicycle belonging to the store. The
officers made a diligent attempt to
ascertain Bonebrake's whereabouts,
but were unsuccessful, and no trace
Of him was had until Tuesday night
when the Sheriff OF Clark county,
Wash, telephoned Sheriff Ford that
he had the young man in his custody.
Armed with requisition papers, Deputy
Sheriff NJ A. Ford wentt0 Vancouver,
Wednesday, and secured his prisoner.
Bonebrake is now in the county Jail
awaiting his preliminary hearing.
In addition to the alleged crime for
which he was arrested, Bonebrake
will have to face a charge of embez-
zling S24 from the laundry. The
young mans parents live near Van
couver, and are said to be highly
respected people.
ILATER: Bonebrake pleaded guilty
in Justice Holman's court yesterday
morning, and was fined S25. He was
committed to Jail pending the pay
ment Of the fine.

this freak style of handwriting, and
il is expected that the smaller schools
will follow suit. Teachers and school
officers throughout the country have
been strong in their advocacy Of the
vertical system. but the style has
never found favor with merchants
and business men generally. Now,
that the authorities are awaking TO the
fact that business men viii not employ
bookkeepers who write the vertical
hand it may be expected that the
system will soon be abolished in all
public schools.

it was made a depository for state
