ROBBERS
At WORK
In This City Last Night
and Make Small
Haul

Amateur house breakers we're at
work in this city last night and two
business houses We're entered.
A hole was bored in one Of the rear
doors OF the Joe Kelly Company store
and the lock opened. The cash reg
lister was looted but only silver dol
lar and eight one cent pieces was the
reward of tht marauders.
The second place entered, the same
parties probably doing the work, was
the brewery. One OF the glasses in
the catch released The cash register
was opened and $340 in change taken
The back OF the Slot machie was pried
open but it is not believed that the
robbers secured anything for their
trouble, due to the fact that they did
not know how to get the money out
OF the slots and the sack was empty
The officers are OF the opinion that
the parties We're scared away from
the brewery as something over dol
lar was left in the till there and if
they had had plenty Of time they
would have probably found the means
to get the money out OF the slot ma

The officers are working on several
clues ana are of the opinion that the
work was done BY amatuers and local

RENO, Feb. 1S-The Western In
ion telegraph company got its frs;
good set back in this city yesterday
when the company was notified that
its linemen who are putting up wires
on Center street should cease work
The company has made arrange
ments to move into its new quarters

officials informed the company C az
ordinance compelling telegraph iGd
telephone companies to place sh>ii

company is now complying with tne
ordinance and the Western Uricn
will be forced to do the same.

ed that the robbing corporation will
make good or they will make it rather
warm for them.
RENO, Feb. 1S.-Later. develop
ments in the case OF the Western
Union and the placing of their wires
underground this afternoon have put
new light on the matter. The city
attorney issued a statement that no
such ordinance ex1sed and that the
council could not compel the telegraph
company to rebuild their lines. 1t
now looks as if the council has been
bluffing all along.
This Afternoon Supt. May of the
Western Union stated that if the
council continued to fight them they
would move their relay Office from
Reno to Winnemucca and only leave
three operators in this city. He say!
the company cannot be bluffed by an!

improved elecrric rearnng.

The ordinary parlor stove is used
by Herr Gutzah of Berlin as re-
ceptacle for an electric radiator, con.
sisting of wire or carbon of suitable
resistance, and in this way is con-
verted into an electric heater more
satisfactory than those hitherto tried.
Too great local drying of the air is
usual fault of electric heating. With
the new arrangement the air circula-
tion produced by the stove rapidly
distributes the heat and at the same
time gives ventilation and prevents
excessive drying The ordinary cur
rent consumption warns an average
room in about an hour With the large
tile stoves so common in Germany the
heat is retained long time, and the
cost of keeping the room comfortable
Is moderate.
