U Kensel, William A. Glasgow, Jr., and Thomas Re- burn White, appointed to ascertain whether the evidence in the possession of Mayor Weaver is sufficient to warrant criminal proceedings against the members of the contracting firm of D.

SILLY FRANKS BY GIRLS.
Nine ALFRED in Mems Clothes Try t
Have Lark in ithaca.

Ithaca, N. Y, Jan. 23.-Nine young
women, whether goods in Cornell uni
versity or not could not be learned, es
sayed a student prank last night and
put on mems clothes to "go down town
with the boys"
Well Disgusting their sex, they came
down town among the student drink
ing resorts. Passers-by heard n Of
them propose that they go into the
Dutch Kitchen, a cafe frequented by
students. They started toward the en-
trance, but lost their nerve.
BY this time several students were
attracted by the peculiar conduct of
the nine. Under the gaze of so many
men the girls finally screamed and ran.
They took refuge in a dressmaker's
shop, where they were later rescued
by friends.

Fort Collins, Colo, Jan. 23.-Frank
Colburn, who escaped from the jaif
here about two weeks ago, was arrest
ed in Greeley yesterday by Sheriff Nc
Creepy.
1t was suspected that Colburn was
in that neighborhood, so letters were
addressed to him at Greeley, which, in
the course of a week, were advertised.
The first one was called for by Colburn
who was using another name. and the
postal authorities notified the sheriff
that a young man working on a ranch
near that place got the letter. A sec
ond letter was sent, and Sheriff Nc
Creery went to Greeley, and when Col
burn called for it, arrested him and
brought him back to this place.

Manufacturers of These Articles Un-
der Ban of Postoffice Department
and Compelled to Keep Moving
Advertisements Quickly Scanned
and Orders Are Issued.

Washington, d. c., Jan. 23.-The
number Of medicine concerns engaged
in the manufacture and sale of alleg-
ed illegal nostrums which have been
put out of business by the postofice de
partment in the last year or so would
fill a good sized book. Seldom, indeed,
do the men who promise to sell poisons
for the purpose of checkmating the
workings of nature dare to make good
their pledges. They know too well
that the penitentiary awaits them if
they do, but they frequently reap a
rich harvest for a time by pretending
to cater to the evil minded. When ex-
amined by the ~postoffice department
their medicines as a rule are found to
contain nothing but harmless coloring
and fiavoring extracts, which, by their
taste and smell, will serve for a time
to fool the purchasers. The depart
ment keeps a close watch of the news
papers and magazines for this class of
swindlers and launches fraud orders
against them as fast as they make their
appearance. Frequently the operators
of the schemes go from town to town,
changing their names as well as the
names of their nostrums with each re-
moval. Generally the department is
able to keep so closely upon their heels,
however, that the fakirs soon discover
they are travelling at a loss and seek
other channels of endeavor.
