Philip Oster Is Missing
With Large Sum Of
Sale Money
BOYS TOOK HIS WINE
Deputy Sheriff Puzzled
Over Strange Dis.
appearance

Philip Oster, wealthy Rus
sian farmer whose home is near
LaSalle, has been missing since
last Friday night and it is feared
by relatives and friends that he
has been murdered by tramps, it
beiug known that he started home
afoot from the LaSalle depot on
Friday night and that three
tramps knew he had $16o in his
possession.
Last Friday Oster went to Denver
and disposed of horse and buggy.
Flo returned to LaSalle Friday night
slightly intoxicated and carrying a
jug OF wine an some whisky. Three
IaSalle boys state that they followed
him and managed to steal the wine.
They also stated that three tramps
who were watching them, asked them
about his money and said they
wanted to be in on it,. Later Oster
returned to the depot. but again dis
appeared and has not been seen since
that time. The three tramps also
disappeared.
The boys who secured the wine
jug. say that they gave the tramps
the wrong direction when asked
which way Oster had gone. but as
he returned. 1t is supposed he was
followed when ne left the depot the
second time. The most plausible
theory is. that he WAS followed
slugged and robbed. and left by the
roadside or dragged into the bushes
A thorough search OF the country
about LaSalle today failed to develop
traces of the body.
Another theory is that Oster may
have returned to Denver. but he was
not seen to board any train leaving
the depot Friday night. Conflictine
stories are told concerning the oc'
currences Of Friay night. but that
told by the boys seems to be the
most plausible.
Deputy Sheriff Peterson made the
run to LaSalle in 21 minutes las'
night. He states that nothing fur
ther can be done until the body is
found. Oster turns up or the tramps
return and are identified. He states
however. that he believes the man
body may have been thrown into
the river.
This afternoon some OF the smaller
reservoirs and certain bitches in the
reighborhood of LaSalle are being
drained as there appears to be some
grounds for the belief that Oster
may have met death from drowning
Oster is q renter on the S. II
Southard place and has wife and
four children The Oldest is a son
IS years of age.
Deputy Sheriff Peterson was call
ed to LaSalle at about O'Clock Mon
day night and after being Informed
OF the circumstances. he made a
search OF the neighborhood with nc
success In discovering traces of the
missing man,

ON AND OFF THE STAGE.
BY HAROLD oRLOB.

BY HAROLD ORI.OB-
New York. Sept 12.-The popular
priced melOdrama is going out rapidly
and the hiEh-Erade Broadway melo-
drama" is coming into vogue. The
blood and thunder plays that have pre-
vailed SO long are now i'm the discard,
and there is not "A cheap-priced thea
ter i'm New York city today.
Broadway melodrama has arrived.
For instance. "Arsene LUpin,' the de-
tectiVe thief play at the Lyceum,
though mighty interesting drama, IS
nothing but one of the old-fashioned
'melUs' touched up with fine dialogue
and pretuly gowned women. The near
est approach To gun-play Is the eXhi-
bitiOn of two reNolVers.
Then again. 'The Flag Lieutenant"
Is also a highly interesting play, be
cause of much action. plentiful sup
ply of experimenting military and
naval uniforms TO add color, and is
especially noticeable for its beautiful
scenic effects.
THE Sins of Society" a meIodrama
with fourteen tremendous scenes, cast
of two hundred and fifty, Is the most
pTetentiOus of the present offerings, in
fact, the most stunning costume play
In years.
THE Cav Hussars." on view at the
KniCkerbCCker, is a melOdrama set to
music. It is picturesque production
supplied with beautiful stage settings.
However, this English piece didn't
score, and has been replaced by an
other London success, The Dollar
Princess" which is faring better.
BILLY" is the title of new farce on
at Daly's theatre. The plot is written
around a set of false teeth and
though the situations are funny
enough. the subject is rather naUseat-
ing BILLY is "a football hero, who
has won great hOnOrs by saving d
championship game for his college,
but in doing SO he lost four of his
front teeth, which, of course, are re
placed by a plate of false ones. He is
as sensitive as an old maid about this
new set of china" but the worst
comes when he loses them and can't
propose to the girl he loves, not only
because he can't talk plain. but be-
cause he is afraid TO divulge his ter
ribIe secret about the false croCkery."
II wouldn't be so bad if Billy" had
not gotten his own set of teeth mixed
with those OF his intended mOther-in-
law. 1T is not a. show to see after
eating a hearty supper and especially
a S the scene takes place upon an ocean
liner, which only adds TO your sea-
sickness. Billy is a good show for
dentists but even they were scarce
