WOMAN FOOTPAD
ROBS VICTIM
HOLDS UP A MAN ON FIFTH
STREET
PART OF MONEY RECOVERED
After Catching Female Robber, Mich
olas Marston ls Forced by a
Crowd Of Bystanders to
Release Her

A lone woman footpad help up and
robbed Nicholas Marston Of $40 in the
rear Of the Huntington building shortly
after midnight this morning and sue
ceeded In making her escape while the
aroused neighbors were expressing their
Indignation at the treatment which the
highwaywoman was receiving at the
hands of her victim.
Marston, who is a cook living at 2S4
East Second street, says that he was
walking down Sixth street in the
shadow Of the Huntington building on
his way home when a woman suddenly
stepped out from the depths of the
shadow and asked Of him an address
on Fifth street.
While giving her the best directions
possible Marston declares the daring
woman demanded of him to give her
his money and without waiting for him
to comply with her request began to so
rapidly through his pockets.
Before he was able to make any for
midable defense the female footpad
had succeeded In getting possession OF
his pocketbook, which contained $73.
When Marston at last appreciated the
position he was in the highwaywoman
was running down the dark alley in
possession of his money.
He started in hot pursuit OF the rob-
ber and succeeded in overtaking her a
few feet away. He grasped her by the
throat and threw her to the ground,
but as he did so the woman screamed
for help, and in an instant there were
at least a dozen persons rushing from
all directions to her assistance.
Marston saw that he was liable to be
mistaken for wife beater and in order
to escape the anger of the onrushing
crowd he wrenched his pocketbook from
the woman's hand and released his
grasp on her throat.
AS he did so she leaped to her feet.
ran down the alley and disappeared,
and when he had sufficiently explained
himself to the crowd Of would-be pro-
tectors of the woman It was useless to
attempt pursuit.
The woman's victim went to the
police station, where he reported his
loss to the detectives, but they were
unable to find any trace Of the woman
last night. When Marston counted the
contents of his pocketbook which he
had recovered from his assailant he
learned that 500 was missing and he
believes that she secured it in their
in the alley.

By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, Aug. 21.-Devasta-
ton, terrible and complete, was wrought
on all sides of the twin cities by the
storm Of Sunday night, according to
reports just received here. Through all
the region from Anoka to Fillmore
counties tell of disaster and loss Of life
and property.
Members of families are missing, and
1t is believed they are buried under the
debris which was strewn broadcast by
the wind.
Many instances Of manning are re-
ported and the total loss of life will not
be known for some days.
Crops which had been cut and were
ready for threshing suffered in many
places and standing corn was damaged
by hail and wind. Hailstones several
inches in circumference worked havoc
with the crops in some sections.
Large sections of railroad tracks were
swept away south of here, and the mail
trains on certain portions of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & st. Paul road were
run yesterday on improvised tracks,
making slow time on account of the
enforced insecurity Of the roadbed.
Storm Was Cyclone
Washouts were numerous. both along
the railroads and in the highways, the
rainfall being enormous.
In some of the farming localities the
grain was stripped from the stalks,
even in the shocks, by the furious
wind and rain and haystacks were
completely demolished. Huge trees
which have successfully withstood the
storms of years were uprooted and
hurled before the wind and barns and
other outbuildings were completely de-
stroyed.
The damage done to buildings and
crops in the southern counties will
reach many thousands of dollars, but
10 accurate estimate can be formed
until complete reports are received. All
sections report that the storm was
cyclonic in it's nature, and from some
points reports tell of a funnel-shaped
cloud that descended with the most
intense fury, leaving destruction in its
path.

CRUSHED BY CARS
Unidentified Man Loses His Life on
Southern Pacific Tracks

An unidentified man, apparently a
Iaborer, was found early this morn
ing ground to death on the railroad
track of the Southern Pacific switch to
the Blinn lumber company on San Pc
dro street, between Second and Third
streets.
The mangled remains of the man,
which were so horribly crushed that
they were beyond recognition, were
found at o'clock this morning by a
special watchman as he was making
his rounds.
1t is supposed that the man was lying
asleep on the track when the switch
engine ran out on the spur at II
o'clock and that he was caught beneath
the wheels. None of the train crew
heard an outcry.

GREGORY, Mo-, Aug. 21.-Three
cases Of yellow fever have developed
here within the past twenty-four
hours. All are Italians. One victim has
died and the two other cases discovered
this morning are said to be very low.
The three infected Italians, with
four others Of the same nationality,
were brought up the river to Gregory
recently from Greenville, Miss, and
employed at track work by the Bur-
llngton railroad.
Excitement is intense and much in
dignation is expressed that the Italians
were permitted to slip through the
quarantine lines.
Gregory is lumber camp on the
Mississippi river, fifteen miles from
Keokuk, Iowa.

KEEFE or TACOMA
GOES TO NEW YORK
GRIFFITH ALREADY SWIMMING
PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE
GOOD PRICE FOR PITCHER
No Figures Given, but the Price ls
Known to Be In the Thousands.
Would Have Been
Drafted

Clark Griffith got Hal Chase away
from Morley's aggregation last season
and ever since the wonderful young In
fielder has donned an American league
Uniform and shown the eastern fans
what he can do Griffith has been cast
ing sleeps eyes in the direction Of the
Pacific Coast league with intent to do
more damage. 1t may be remarked In
passing that Griffith also secured Doc
Newton, but there are some who say
that that doesn't matter so much. But
it was Chase that again turned Grif-
fth's eyes far westward, and now
Bobby Keefe Of the Tacoma club will
wear a New York American uniform
next season.
Danny Long, who has an option on
Tacoma's premier twirler, closed a deal
with Griffith last week. 1t was Long
who discovered Hal Chase for Griffith
last season, and when Danny went east
to pick UP his all-star team he found
the New York manager looking for
pitching material.
"Got any moNe wonders out in your
league?" asked Griffith. ANY more
men like Chaser"
Had Watched Him
Then Danny told the American men
all about Keefe, and Griffith admitted
he had been watching him closely and
regarded him as exceedingly promising.
Then Long and Griffith had little talk
about finances which resulted in Longs
terms being accepted. It was not given
out what Griffith paid for Keefe but 1t
is known to be up in the thousands.
Keefe will not join the New York
will not need to worry for fear the
team will be disrupted this season. Sell
ing Keefe at this stage of the game
was purely business proposition. If
Keefe were not sold he would be drafted
in November. At least half a dozen
clubs have been making queries about
the youngsters work, and If he hadn't
been sold Tacoma would have received
but the usual draft price Of $3.50, whereas
the club now receives more than twice
that sum.
Fisher found Keefe at Santa Clara
college in 1908, but he did not begin to
make his mark in the baseball world
until 1904.
Last year he distinguished himself
on the slab and many wondered why
he was not drafted instead of Overall,
who went to Cincinnati. His work this
year has been even more brilliant than
last, and much of the Tigers success
is directly traceable to him. Keefe is
distinctly curve ball pitcher. There
is no pitcher in the Pacific Coast league
who uses as many twisters as does he,
