St, Petersburg, Mar. I3.-This CITY
has been free so far from the carni-
val of robbery and murder prevalent
in interior cities, but was the scene
today of a daring robbery in broad
daylight. A dozen men armed with
revolvers entered the government
spirits distillery on the Schlusseln
embankment, held up the employees,
rined the safe and escaped.

LOCAL PRESS scINTILLATIoNs.

The Literary Digest of last week
reproduces another of Lovey's car
toon's in the Salt Lake Herald. The
cartoon has reference to the new re-
publican plan of one dollar popular
subscriptions to the campaign fund
and illustrates the approval of the
plutocrats led by President Roosevelt,
who get off with a contribution so
slight. 1t is needless to say the car
toon has more than ordinary merit, or
it would not have been reproduced in
the Literary Digest.

Snyder l.. Hague Of the Tribune, is in
the hospital sick with typhoid fever.
He had not been feeling just himself
for week or two and on Tuesday the
fever developed to such an extent that
ne found it necessary to go to the Holy
Cross hospital, where the good Sis
tiers will no doubt nurse him back to
health.

The fact that Toxins will not ap-
pear in the Press club play "The Old

cause its failure. Lon Had
dock can sustain the character of Sue
Brette at least as well as the other
chap, and Teddy needed a vacation
for a few days at Goldfield at this par
ticular time. Teddy was mistaken
when he feared that his absence would
cause disaster.

An Aberdeen, Miss, special
says: All the plumbers in town
went on strike Monday, demand
ing an advance from S4 to S5 per
day.
An extensive water works and
sewerage system has just been
installed, the laying of all the
mains being completed, and the
plumbing commenced. The city
ordinances are very strict in
prohibiting any but bonded and
licensed plumbers executing any
of the plumbing work, and the
four contracting establishments
work only union men, but SO far
have refused to accede to the de-
mand. This plumbing work has
by the city been divided into
districts to facilitate matters, and
the strike comes on before the
completion of the first district.

Full Of WhiSkey
AND CREATES RACKET
On Rankin Convict Farm Which Results
In Slap Ct Hi; Face BY Capt.
J. P. Raney.

A special from lckson, Miss.
says: While visiting the Rankin
county state penitentiary farm,
near here, in company with six
members OF the house of repre-
sentatives and one state senator
yesterday afternoon, s. d. Me-
Nair. chairman of the Mississip-
pi board of railroad commission
ers and a member of the state
board of control of all the state
penitentiaries, became involved
in a personal difficulty with Capt.
j. P. RaneY, the sergeant in
charge Of the place. The fight
commenced while McNair was
sitting at the dining table partak-
ing Of meal in Raney's home,
and it continued hotly for several
minutes. Raney, who was act
ing solely for his own protection,
dragged McNair out of the room
to an adjoining room, where he
threw him on the floor, slapped
his face and held him until Rep
resentative Patterson came to his
assistance. Two convicts then
took McNair, still struggling and
fighting, put him out of the
house and led him to a tree about
100 feet away, where they held
him in turn until he was placed
in hack for Jackson.
The representatives were here
to see some convicts who had
been sent up from their respec-
tive counties. In the party were
Messrs. Patterson and Carothers,
of Lee; Errington and Denton,

RELIGIOUS CENSUS
is TO Be TAKEN
Movement to Locate The
''Ins" and "Outs.'

A meeting of Sunday school
workers from the First Methodist,
First Baptist, Second Methodist,
Second Baptist, Cumberland
Presbyterian and Presbyterian
churches met in the First Pres
byterian Sunday school room on
Sunday and discussed the matter
of taking a census Of the Colum-
bus people, in order to learn how
many are out of Sunday schools
who might be in them. 1t was
decided to take this census on
Friday afternoon the 9th of
April, unless something in the
interim makes it necessary to
postpone and the public is re-
spectfully asked to assist these
workers in their efforts, by an
swering all necessary questions.
They want to find how many peo-
pie in each house, the ages of all
those below 10 years and how
many attend Sunday schools-an
how many do not, and the
reason for not attending, if they
will give it.
They don't want the age of any
over 10 as they will be simply
marked "Y. NJ or "Y. L." for
young man or young lady as the
case may be, and they hope that
the people will cooperate with
them and help them in this work,
which they consider for the bene-
fit of the city.
The meeting to discuss and
make plans for the work was ad-
journed to meet again next Sln-
day afternoon at o'clock in the
Sunday School room of the First
Presbyterian church and all Sun
day school workers are earnestly
urged to be present.

EASTER DAY CELEBRATION
IN CITY OF COLUMBUS
Solemn Services and a
Beautiful Day.

Easter Sunday in Columbus
was appropriately celebrated by
all her citizens, in the different
houses OF worship. and the day
was as ideal as though it raj
been made by the hand of
master a rtist 10 harmonic with
the solemn celebration of the re :
direction of our Lord. On every
hand the superb beauty Of nature
showed that He who suffered on
the cross had not overlooked the
painting of the canopy of green
foliage interlined with beautiful
blossoms under which His peo-
pie worshipped.
At ST. Mary's church o, the
Anuunciation solemn and appro-
pirate masses were said by Faith
er Hippel, while the musical pro
gram and decorations were
thoroughly enjoyed by the large
congregations In attendance at
all services.
ST. Paul's Episcopal church
was the picture of divinity. With
the lovely white blossoms as
back ground, the altar drapsd in
pure white linen and the cross
standing in th7 foreground, all
possessed a solemnity that Y vi i-
ly suggested the pain and privs-
tions which Jesus Christ suffered
for His people. Rev. Mr.. DaEin
III deep meaning words preached
a sermon that suited the day In
al it meaning, and the musical
part of the service was beautiful
ly rendered; the sweet singing Ot
Miss Brown being especially Inn
pressive. Services at the PrOtes-
tant churches all contained some
thing commemorative Of this sea-
son of our christian year which
brings to our mind the wise do
ings OF divine Providence.

INSANE BIGAMIST
AGAIN ESCAPES
Fleming, Who Jumped From Train
Broke Bars of Room.

A special from jackson, Miss,
says: The penitentiary board of
control received notice this morn
ing of the escape of Samuel j,
Fleming, the bigamist, sent up
from Quitman county about two
years ago to serve a ten years
term, and who, for the past year
or so, had been in confinement at
the Mississippi Insane Hospital.
Supt. Mitchell, in a letter to the
prison board, states that Fleming
broke the bars of his room at the
hospital and escaped during the
night. Thus far no trace has
been discovered of the fugitive.
This is his second escape from
custody. While being brought to
the pen in the custody of travel
ing sergeant, he jumped through
the coach window of an Alabama
& Vicksburg train running at the
rate of forty miles an hour, and
sustained injuries which dethron-
ed his reason.

Reflections of a Bachelor.

Girls are always afraid that
they are not going to be married
and men that they are.
The only man who really likes
farming is the one who has a lot
of money to lose at il.
Most peoples idea of saving
money is to buy bakers bread in
stead of wasting flour.
1t takes a woman to know her
husbands faults and not believe
when someone else does.
No matter how much you can
see of woman she always thinks
it is modest if you see it through
open work.-New York Press.
