morning about S:15 o'clock tQiobrthe money drawer at the $. P.4depot Agent Lean had stepped to tt door for moment when he heard tf mo- ney drawer bell ring. Upon bking around he saw a fellow standig in the office looking out the willow. He got a good description of thanan and reported the affair to Rtger Speed. who arrested the man inthe afternoon and locked him up.
 The fellow gave the name of im. Douglas and when searched there tas- found a bunch of fifteen burglar kts, which would unlock almost any lad of lock. Sewed in the waist hem,f his pants was found a deposit s4: showing he had deposited $500 butt day or two. previous with the bankl Benson. This amount tallied with tn sum taken .from the Tucson $. ticket office but a short time since an' that office wired for further particu lars
 Special Officer Walters of the & F company, immediately came to Will COX to take charge of the man. it hay ing been ascertained from the bank O Benson officials that the money de posted by Douglas corresponded il amount and kind to that stolen iron the Tucson ticket office. Walters tool his man to Tucson, and judging iron the nature of the evidence a convic tion is almost certain.

RULE Of COUNCIL
SHOULD Be CHANGED
Should Not Be Necessary to
Have a Quorum to
Adjourn.
(From Wednesdays Daily.D

There was no meeting of the city
council last evening, for the reaons
that quorum was not present. A
point was brough' up at little in
formal discussion among the few al
dermen there something that should
receive favorable consideration at an
early date. Under the law govern
ing cities Of this class, it would be
possible for the council to adjourn IN
case such as last night, but one
of the rules Of the local council pro-
vides that there must be a quorum
in order to adjourn. 1t was the con-
census of opinion OF the faithful on
hand last evening that the rule was a
poor one and that it should be chan
ged. This is very true and the coun-
Gil should do SO without any delay.
There was also an informal discussion
Of the matter of salaries for the may
or and aldermen and the subject was
discussed pro and con. 1t Is quite
evident that this matter will be
preached before the council at no
great distant date.

Favorable to a Long Life.

Fort Atkinson has been noted for be-
ing the abode of long lived men and
women. We recall that Mrs. J. Chad
wick, died 50 years of age. When they
died, VIM. Simonds was 90 years old;
Stephen Rice, 80 years; Judge Aaron
Rankin was within three months of
80 years; Erastus Smell was 92H years.
Of those living, Halsey Beemer will be
80 years old the 18th Of this month;
Adna Rankin is 81; Edward Rankin
nearly So; L, B. Caswell nearly 80; Jas.
Mcpherson, 81; Henry Benham, 88; Fer
dinand Langholff, 81; John Ward, 81;
Chas. SecOr, SO; Eli May, 81. There are
several others whose ages range over so,
but we have as yet been unable to OBJ
tain their exact ages.
By the above facts it will be seen that
the salubrity Of air, good cheer and
neighborliness of our little city is ia
vorable to longevity.-Union, Fort At

There Will Be Others.

The friends of E. l.. Philips of
Milwaukee are pushing him for the
republican nomination for governor in
the next campaign in the state. The
party might go farther and fare worse
for he is gentleman of many ex-
cellent traits of character and
thoroughly qualified to discharge the
duties of the office all alone by HIM
self. As the time approaches there
will be other aspirants and the party
will have several to choose from and
should make wise choice for it be-
comes more and more evident that
there is going to be mix-up in the
state, for the voters are becoming
thoroughly Disguised with the tom
fooiery that has obtained in the state
of late and make a change.

Evening Wisconsin: The recent
promotion OF Lr. Angus; Ernst of the
Northwestern University at Water

caused by the death of Prof. Adolph
Hoenecke at the Evangelical Lutheran
Theo 'ogical seminary in Wauwatosa,
has raised some agitation. The right
OF the borad of directors to rake this
appointment is questioned by those
who are Directing, while friends of
DR.. Ernst declare that this selection
was proper and good one and they
will strongly combat any effort to pre-
vent the confirmation. DR.. Ernst is &c
years OF age, and this fact is the chief
cause of objection to his ppointment.
