SENATOR BAILEY.

the company was an Independent one.
After that the senator blossomed forth
as a wealthy man, although he had
been poor before his election to the
Senate and had posed as the champion
of the people against the trusts, espe-
cially the Standard Oil octopus.
The first open charges made against
Bailey appeared in the Cosmopolitan
magazine in the Treason Of the SEN
ate" series, drawing a heated denial
from him on the floor of the Senate.
Unfortunately for him it was shown
that his name appeared on vouchers of
the oil company for large amounts,
which Bailey explains by stating that
these sums represent personal loans to
him from the company's president.
Bailey is now a candidate for re-
election to the Senate and his oppo-
nents are making as much out of the
charges against him as possible.

A BOLD BURGLARY
OF A PAIA STORE
MAUI AGRICULTURAL coMPANY's
STORE ENTERED AND OVER $500
WORTH OF PROPERTY STOLEN.

KAHULUI Maui january Son
Monday night last the Maui Agricul-
tural Co.'S Paia store was entered by
burglars. and over $500 worth of mere
chandise stolen, the bulk of which was
jewehy There were apparently more
than one of them and they obtained
entrance through the trans1m of the
back door Of the main store building.
They were evidently well acquainted
with the premises and lost no time I'm
going straight for the desired articles.
From the jewelry case. ON which they
broke the lock. they took IS watches,
besides other articles They also help
ed themselves TO some ham. cutting a
big gouge out Of a whole ham. and
leaving the balance Of the ham and the
knife lying besides &C. some underwear
and socks We're also taken, and when
they had gotten an that they could get
away with, they calmly made their ex-
1t through the back door So far no
clue whatever has been found to the
identity Of the burglars, though the
theory is that they We're Porto Ricans.
All the landings Of the island are be-
ing watched, and 1t is not thought pos
sible that the thieves win be able to
dispose Of their plumber and must ev-
enNally give themselves away through
the superabundance Of their watches
on hand

 | bout, when the car struck the string piece of the iron bridge over the small brook near the New Haven Web com pany's factory. After being thrown five feet in the air the car turned turtle and then fell down an embanlment fif- teen feet Oliver, who was driving, was pinned to his seat by the non-ad- unstable steering post, and hls spine was broken by the sharp impact.
 Oliver and his friends had been to the ball game in the afternoon and were riding about town in the evening in the runabout enjoying the sights.
 Oliver had been following the trolley track all the way out Whitney avenue and when he got to the Centerville bridge he discovered that he could not keep to it any longer, as it crosses the book over a trestle. Tn trying to turn out into the roadway again his car struck the iron rail fence that projects fifteen feet from the bridge structure to protect teams from driving onto the trestle. The collision of the car with the iron railing caused it to skid across the roadway to the right, where it hit the stringpiece and went into the air. As soon as the men who were thrown from the car recovered their senses they started on a hunt for help. Two men came down the road after hear ing the crash and with Ollver's friends started in to extricate the student who was buried under the overturned car A call was sent for Dr. Lay of Ham den and for Dr. Joslin, the medical ex- aminer of Hamden The physicians got there quickly and at once decided that Oliver had been killed instantly. The only one of the others who needed med teal attention was Colston, whose nose was injured. The other two had only slight cuts. All but Colston were able to be about It was stated at St. tAn- thcnys hall that he was suffering from the shaking up more than anything else.
 The car lay at the foot of the em- bankment until noon when it was car ried away.
