EARL FLYNN's STATEMENT.
Majestic Singer Gives His Version of
Trouble.

Earl Flynn. who was arrested at the
instigation of Roy Crawford of the
Majestic theater. charged with robbing
one of the girls of So and a gold watch,
denies that there is any truth in the
story. Substantiating this statement he
said: In the first place I did not take
any money from the cashier, but on the
contrary she gave me a five dollar bill
as it is customary for the employees to
draw money through the week. and
should have placed a debit slip in the
money drawer in place of the money
which I suppose that she did.
we had been good friends very
good friends and 1 had been wearing
her watch for some time, as she gave
it to NE for that purpose, but some

FIREMEN UNCOVER
HIDDEN GISTERN

Employees OF the fire department, under
command of Captain Walsh OF Engine

would have been the means Of saving
much valuable property on April l6

the United Railroads when the Guerre-
70 street road was being reconstructed
The fact that the United Railroads,
with its usual sinister disregard OF the
rights OF the people, covered up the
cistern 10 suit its own convenience is
responsible for the burning out Of many
families in the vicinity and the loss Of
millions OF dollars worth OF property.
There was water enough in the recep-
tacle TO have stopped the flames that
ragged st the time.
Captain Walsh calculates that there
sre now 25,O00 gallons OF water ia the
cistern, which has q capacity Of 1905
gallons. The water would have been
ample 60 have stopped the progress of
the April confiagration at Sixteenth
street instead OF at Twentieth street
Although the cisteTn was sealed up,
the fremen could have dug down TO IL
had they been aware OF its existence.
In 1859 the city constructed more
than fifty cisterns in various parts Of
the city as an auxiliary water supply
for fire protection. Most of the els
