Pttsburg. Pa., July 2+-SensatLonal testimony to the effect that a trio Of confidence men have taken more than sI, 100000 from wealthy Pittsburgers by means of a clever, but ancient "bun- co" game, was given yesterday after noon before Alderman Stephen J.

GOLD BRICK FROM
THE SHOSHONE MILL

Superintendent Bryce Turner Of
the Montgomery Shoshone handed
John S. Cook and company's bank a
gold brick the other day-not the
regulation variety ono used to sep
arate the innocent and unsuspecting
from their coin, but the real article
yielded from the ores treated i the
company's mill. 1t is the first re-
fined gold from the new plant. anil
is worth $1,000.
In addition to this the company
has shipped two cars of concentrates
to the Salt Lake shelters. and is
holding up its average Of thirty tons
of high grade shipping ore a day.
The milling ore is concentrated
twenty tons in one, and the material
being treated will average in the vi
entity Of $25 to the ton. An idea Of
the value OF the concentrates may be
had from this fact.
The new mill, the management
says. is going well and giving Salts
faction. Some few changes are being
made from time to time and the
plant Is being gradually worked up
TO its full capacity. The general ver-
diet among mill men Is that the mill
IS a success. but II takes time to

had thrned over the bed clothing IN
their quest for money.
Miss Gladys Lanes room looked as
If a cyclone had passed through it.
She had a beautiful hat with a gor-
geous plume. They hadn't taken
that. but they had done worse; they
had jumped on it, and kicked it. and
crushed it, and torn the feathers out
Of it, and left it a sad sight. The
mark of a woman's heel was plainly
visible, and If the woman doesn't
throw her shoes away, they may lead
to her detection.
But that was only one thing. A
toilet set, II of the handsomest in
town, had lain upon the dresser;
every bit Of silver of it was gone,
easily $3.50 worth. Silk hose by the
bundle, costly laces from Brussels
and Limeric, gloves, slippers, shoes,
the daintiest of lingerie. silk waists,
handsome skirts, ~corsets, jewel box
es, stationery, postal cards, letters
that the girls had stacked away
those of Miss Linette had been read
and thrown upon the floor; Miss
Lanes had been carted away. And
the browning indignity-the picture
of Miss Lane had been turned to the
wall.
The police have a theory. and the
girls have a theory. They have also
new apartments, for they would not
spend another night in the stone
cabin. Every train that leaves town
is bei..g watched, and if the spite
full thieves get away with their plum
der, it will not be the fault of Chief
Of Police Malley, and his band OF
trusty sleuths. Meantime, there are
two pretty girls, heartbroken over
the disappearance of their pretty
things, and all they want is a chance
to get their pretty fingers into the
hair of the at the bottom OF
it all.

PUzzLING
ROBBERY AT TONOPAH
GIRLS RETURN HOME TO FIND
THEMSELVES MINUS VALU-
ABLE WARDROBE.

The police have a mystery, 1t is a
robbery mystery. Robberies are COM
mon enough in some places, but it is
seldom that such an outrage is per-
petrated in this city, and the ques-
ton is: '.Who did it,"
Wait a minute, OF course that is
the mystery to b solved in all sucn
cases, but this is a case that runs
the gamut from daring to sneak
t%hievery, and reeks with revenge and
acknowledgements spitework. Two
pretty girls were the victims of the
robbers, and the articles taken were
such as to appeal only to a woman
lingerie, silk hosiery, toilet articles,
jewelry, and a maddeninS list of
dainty, pretty, fluffy underwear.
Miss Gladys Lane, who is noted on
the rialto for her smart gowns, her
wonderful hats, her beautiful face
and figure, was one Of the victims;
graceful, willowy, Villa Linette was
the other. The girls were living
alone together, or perhaps it would
be better to say, they were living to-
gether alone, in a stone cabin of two
rooms on Center street. Miss Linette
makes music while you wait on the
dear old harpsichord in the rooms of
the Richelieu. Her voice has swell
ed and thrilled often as the tempting
yiands of the Richelieu have been
undergoing service. Lulled by the
dulcet tones many a man has lost
his appetite, and has been content to
drink in the sweet music in lieu oil
wine, and pay for the wine besides
Miss Lane is very fond of music
and also of the musician, and sht
waited for her in the morning of yes
terday. How glad she was that she
waited. The two lone girls wen
their way, happy and content, ant
entered Miss Linette's room first
The latter was in the lead, and shl
fell over something. Her companion
quickly turned up the electric glim

The singer had fallen over he

STATE WIDE PROHIBITION.
Is Purely Experimental and Proven
Successful Wherever Tried.

Practically all the turmoil htat has
arisen over the constitution has been
due to its legislative, rather than its
organic proyisiAns. The legislation
in the constitution has provoked the
controversy as to whether or not II Is
Republican in form, which brings 1t
within the scope of President Roose-
velts veto under the provisions of the
enabling act.
State wide prohibition in fact is a
legislative measure. It Is purely eX-
perimental. and even as an eXper.
ment has proven unsatisfactory when
tried in other stats. Such questions
should be given the elasticity of legis
lative control. Conditions change,
and the people should be able easily
TO enact laws to meet them as they
arise. Scotland tried prohibition as a
national panacea for the ills of the
liquor traffic, and was compelled to
abandon Il for more practical methods
