One Person Thought to Have Been
the Criminal.

AS Mrs. G. H. Rowland of S1o LIST street
northwest was returning home about 9
O'Clock last night, and was within few
feet of her front door. she felt someth hing
tug at her pocketbook in her hand and
suddenly realized that it had been jerked
from her.
The thief made his escape so quickly
that she was unable to catch a good
glimpse of him. She told the police that
all She remembered was the tug at her
wrist. the feeling that her pocketbook
was gone and the sight of man flying
down the street.
Two small boys who were standing
across the street at the time and saw the
thief running for the nearest alley said
that the man was light copper colored.
about twenty to twenty-five years of age
of slender build and wore dark clothes
of poor quality.
Mrs. Bowland's pocketbook contained
about S1.J0 in change and a number of
private letters.
AS Mrs. Annie Breslin of 7O1 9Th street
northeast was returning home some time
later a colored man snatched her pocket
book containing about So. and ran away.
Mrs. Breslin cried out and resisted the
man. and obtained an excellent view of
his face and general appearance.
Detectives Pratt and Hewlett of the
central office and all of the available pre-
cinct men were securing the city late last
night in the hope of gathering a clue to
the robber. who is thought to have been
concerned in both cases.

MASON TO QUIT
SHR|EVALTY RACE
ON HEARST TICKET
Politicians Hear That He Will
Announce Withdrawal to the
County Committee Tonight.

Charles M. Mason. who has been NOM
mated by the local members of the In
dependence party for sheriff, will with
draw from h race at the monthly
meeting of the county committee of the
Hearst party in. the local headquarters,
742 Broad street tonight.
No public nnouncement has as yet
been made by Mason of his Intention
to retire from the field. but the fact will
be sprung by him at the meeting to-
night, 1t Is said. The Hearst men here
Will not put up n other candidate
for sheriff, but it is known that a lively
fight will be precipitated among the
Independence men by Mason's an
nouncement.
Some of the delegates on the county
committee are Harrigan men and some
Morgan men, and a determined effort
will be made by both tonight to get
tho Endorsement of the Hearst party
for their favorite for sheriff. Any such
action will be fought tooth n nail
by a third faction of the committee,
which claims that the party should
take no action in the matter, but leave
all members of the party to vote as
they see 1T.
This faction Of the Hearst men says
that the Endorsement of either Harri-
gan or Morgan for sheriff by thelr
party would be a clear-cut violation of
the fundamental rule of the Hearst
party that they shall not give their
support as a party to n candidate
who has been nominated by either the
Republican or Democratic party.

Professor Pawlow, of Russia, was en-.
gagged for many years in experimental
work, trying to earn the workings
of digestion, especially the digestive
glands.
He, with able assistants. operated
upon dogs, cats. guinea pigs and other
animals.
His methods were seemingly painful,
but he gave to science a work which
won the Nobel prize and made for him
an undying fame,
Science penetrated the secrets of ma
ture. Professor Pawlow saw animals
digest food. He analysed juices from
every part of the digestive cana and
stomach under all conditions of diges-
ton. He spent years Of ceaseless study
amid the bowling and dying beasts,
but he won, and science today looks
upon him as a great man.
