WOrkmen carrying red flags marched
along ZelaZna street. The demOnstra-

without mOlestatiOn for some distance.
Suddenly several squadrons of Uhlans
appeared, but without interfering with

a company Of infantry approached from
the front, and Immediately the cavalry
charged into the procession, driving it

Sioux City. July S.--The board OF
trade game is the newest graft on
which Sioux City saloonkeepers and
storekeepers have been taken in, and,
the police are looking for the two
smooth individuals who worked 1t to
a considerable profit. One CRATER In
stalled the machine, agreeing to give
the storekeepcr 40 per cent of the prof
It's. The customer was to touch D
space on the board Some spaces paid
from 10 cents to 81, but most of them
were blanks. The storekeeper was
promised large profits and little
trouble. Then around comes CRATER
No. in the guise Of reuben. He In
cidentally gets interested in the game
and then acquires passion for 1t. At
ter few small winnings he draws
forth card for 81. He goes from
place to place and invariably he draws
a 81 prize. But viii Marshall got sns-
picious, and after the reuben had won
81 at one OF the Marshall Bros stores,
Will Marshall telephoned his brother,
Joe Marshall. at the other store, to be
on the watch. So when the reuben APP
pears at the second Marshall store,
and wins 81. he Is accused of dishon-
esty and made to disgorge his "a win

he made his escape and now the police
are on his trail. The theory is that

Cedar Rapids, July S.--Altho 1t Is
hard for them to believe that any per-

relatives of Sidney Head of Mt. Ver-
non fear that he has met with foul
play and have begun an Investigation.
He was last seen here on Monday ev-
ening by his brother, i. A. Head. VINO
placed him on the $3.50 Rock lslana
train to Chicago, with ticket and mon
ey sufficient to take him to Baltimore.
where he was to consult an eminent
specialist. Since that time no word
has been received from Sidney Head,
and all trace Of him has been lost not
withstaniing that he intended to tele-
graph the brother here upon ARRIVAL
at his destination, which was to nave
been early Wednesday morning.
The mystery surrounding the dis-
appearance deepened when just before
noon today Attorney F. w. Head re-
ceived from the Baltimore physician
this message:
"Your brother has not yet arrived.
Advise me.---Henry +. Gary.
Despite his affliction Sidney Head
was possessed of plenty of nerve. and
prevailed upon his brothers to let him
make the journey alone as he realized
that they were very busy Just now.
Reluctantly they acquiesced. Sidney
declared that he could take care OF
himself, and that in any case, no man
would harm a blind person. Thus II
was that he started out alone. The
porter on the train was given liberal
fee to place his charge in Parmalee
cab at the LaSalle street station, chi
cago, and to make sure that he ar
rived safely at the Grand Central sta
ton, where he was to take the Baltl-
