Although every effort is being made
by the local police force to put a stor
to the nightly holdups and robberies

predations in the darker spots of the
city without the slightest fear of de-
lection.

gulch. Kowalski left the car at Ave-
nue. 81 and started towards his home.
Hearing a slight noise behind him he
turned and saw two men following
him.
AS soon as he saw the men were hur-
rying to catch up with him, Kowaski
ran, and Immediately the men ran
after him, shouting for him to stop.
outdistancing his pursuers the robbers
fired twice at him to emphasize their
command.
Kowalski stopped and handed over
SO cents to the two men as they ap-
preached. The robbers were not salts
fed with the amount and demanded
more, searching the boy in an effort to
secure all his money.
A bank book on local savings bank
with a deposit of 81 in it was taken
from the boy together with his hat and
coat before he was ordered to hurry
along. At the nearest house he
stopped and returned with a man to
the place of the holdup where his hat
and coat were found.
According to the report of the boy

Lincoln and Webster's Friend.

The late Hon. Charles w. Slack told
the following of the Hon. Peter Har-
vey, the friend and biographer of Dan
lei Webster:
Mr.. Harvey was a large mar with a
small voice and that pomposity of
manner that many very difident men
possess. Above everything, he valued
and prided himself upon his friendship
with the great e%xpounder."
The first year of the war of the re-
bellion he went to Washington, and
on his return was asked how he liked
President Lincoln.
Well" he said, "Mr. Lincoln is a
very singular man. | went on to see
him, and told him that | had been an
intimate personal friend of Daniel
Webster; that | had talked with him
so much on the affairs of the country
that | felt perfectly confident | could
tell him exactly what Mr.. Webster
would advise in the present crisis, and
thereupon | talked to Lincoln for two
solid hours, telling him just what he
should do and what he should not do;
and, will you believe it, sir, when |
got through all Mr.. Lincoln said was,
as he clapped his hand on my leg:
Mr.. Harvey, what a tremendous great
calf you have got!'"-Boston Herald.

The Objectionable person left the

Circle of Life Nearly Complete.

Stephen P. Steele, who practiced law
In P%eterboro, N. H., for a generation,
was employed by a Boston man, who
had purchased a piece of real estate
in that town, to clear the title. This
necessitated the purchase of a life in.
terest in it, owned by an old lady. This
interest was converted into an annu-
ity, figured upon the probability of her
life according to the regular tables.
After this period had expired by
many years the Boston man wrote Mr..
Steele, through whom he had made
the annual payments, asking him how
much longer he thought the old wom-
an would live. Steele replied that she
was then bent nearly double with age,
and in a few years he believed her ex-
tremities would meet, and then she
would live forever.

WHERE GAME is PLENTY,
NeWfoundIsnd Declared a Paradise for

Newfoundland Declared a Paradise fos
the Sportsman.
L. F. Brown, the veteran angler an6
camper, writes in The Country Calen
dar:
Brook trout and brown trout are
not appreciated in Newfoundland, be
ing far more common than are the
perch and sunfsh of the states. Catch
ing them will soon surfeit the angler
who casts his flies from the shore of
almost any lake. Such catches are
counted by the dozen-one lot of sew
enty-two dozen being brought aboard
the train at Harbor Grace. One dozen
ten-inch trout usually sell for 10 cents.
There are 687 named lakes on the
island, and 10000 known ones, with
out names. The island has about A.
900 miles of seacoast, including that
of bays like Bonavista, Notre Dame,
Fortune, st. Mary's Bonnie, st. George,
Placentia and Bay of Islands. From
one to six streams of clear green wa
ter empty into each of these bays.
Every stream that reaches salt water
is a salmon stream. Back from all
that coast are other and easily reached
streams that have not even a tradition
of a fishnet, rod or hook and lakes
never mapped where one may camp
and add to the fare wild geese n
ducks, willow grouse, whose plumage
turns white in winter; %ptarmigan, plo'
yer and curlew. These camping places
bring a unique sense of remotenesa
and solitude. Only one who has act
ually seen the wall of darkness around
a camp fire in the Newfoundland jun
giles and over the tundras can under
stand the tinge of fear that sometimes
becomes almost appalling in the vast
solitudes."

A. A. George of Ration has resigned

The negro cooks on the Union Pacific
dining cars have been displaced by
white men. 1t is said that the work of
the negroes was not satisfactory.
The freight officials are resting more

of shipments is daily becoming less.
The Rock Island is putting up new
and costly passenger and freight depots
at Shawnee. The plans are completed
and work will begin on the improve
ments in the near future.
Inquiry is being made by the postal
department with the view to utilizing
the new Union Pacific gasoline motor
cars for the postal service. When the
Union Pacific branches are equipped
with the new cars for freight and pas
senger business, mail cars with at least
fifteen feet of space for the clerks are
also to be put into service.
