Gypsy RICO APPEARS IN
CAFE CONCERT HERE TODAY
Arrives with Orchestra from San Franz
cisco and VIII Appear at Local
Restaurant for Fortnight

Janczy Rigo, who is to give a fort
night of concerts at Levy's cafe, ar
rived last night with his gypsy or
chestra, from San Francisco. They
will start their music at afternoon tea,
$3.50 o'clock today, this being an in
novation established by AL Levy for
the pleasure of women guests. The
gypsy violinist and his men will also
appear during the dinner hours, $3.50
to $3.50 o'clock every night and after
the theater. Mr.. Levy has had CON
structed a platform-with a railing
around it, by the wagon the cafes
main floor, as Rigo says he can play
with better JUNCTION when he Is closer
in touch with his audience, and OBJ
jects to the music balcony 'as too far
away.
"It is impossible to furnish pro-
grams In advance of RIGGS selec-
tions," says Mr.. Levy, "as he is a
temperamental fellow, and plays what
ever the mood calls for. And as he
has largely made up his repertoire
from gypsy folk-songs, which he has
orchestrated himself, programs would
not mean very much anyhow. How
ever, his selections will soon become
known and we will arrange for re-
quests, that favorite numbers may be
asked for at certain occasions. He
plays other than gypsy music also,
but I think his greatest popularity
will come from the Zingara airs, in
which field he excels."

NEGRO THIEF GETS AWAY WITH

Watching his opportunity while the
bank clerks were busy, a sneak thief
entered the International Savings bank
at Temple and Spring streets, shortly
after 12 o'clock yesterday, and when
Cashier w. S. Pollock left his window
for a few seconds snatched handful
Of silver coins which were lying just
inside the cage and hurried away.
Pollock turned in time to see the
negro hurrying out of the door. He
thought the mans actions were pecul-
lar and when he examined the stacks
OF silver near his window discovered
about $40 had been taken.
The police were notified but before
the detectives arrived the negro had
disappeared and no clew to his ident-
ity was found.
The bank employees gave vague de-
scription of tse thief and the detectives
are working N the theory that he is

MAY FILE CHARGES
AGAINST POLICEMAN
CONDUCT UNBECOMING Of
FICER ALLEGED
Manager OF WestIake Stables Declares
Guardian of Law Offered to
Fight When Complaint
Was Denied

Charges OF conduct unbecoming an
officer probably. will be preferred
against Patrolman H. L. Varey, who is
alleged to have upbraided D. F. Ho-
gan, manager of the Westlake stables,
when the other emerged from Police
Judge Williams court yesterday after
non after having been released under a
suspended sentence of SO or three days
for a technical violation of the license
ordinance.
According to Hogan and several 9TH
ers VINO were present, Varey appeared
to be angered because Hogan was not
fined. The officer Is alleged to have
abused Hogan and finally placed him
under arrest and took him to the office
of the prosecuting attorney.
Then, it Is asserted, after a complaint
was denied Varey became greatly in
censed and offered to take off his
shield and fight Hogan. The latter re-
mained cool and demanded that he be
arraigned in court or else released.
Narey's answer was to leave the room
without saying word.
Denies Offer to Fight
Hogan remained in the prosecutors
office for several minutes, when one of
the deputy prosecuting attorneys told
him there was no complaint. "But ]
am under arrest" replied Hogan. Chow
Gan I leave here?"
The attorney then sought Varey and
asked what action was to be taken,
He can CO." said Varey.
You go tell him that he is not under
arrest said the other.
"Oh. let him stay up there a while
and sweat; it will do him good"
Finally Varey told Hogan there
would be no further charges, and the
latter, highly indignant at the manner
In which he was treated, left the build
Ing, declaring he would take the mat
ter up with the proper officials.
Varey denies he offered to fight his
prisoner, but those in the prosecuting
attorneys office say different.

LAST LAP OF LONG
HIKE IS BEGUN HERE
OKLAHOMA LAD ON WAY HOME
TO WIN BIG WAGER
Brother Left In Seattle VIII Do His
Best to Add to Earnings of
the Young Pedes-
trlans
Branches: eth and Main
af2s South Hoover Street

The steamship Hanalei, which arrived
yesterday from Seattle, brought as pas
senger Carl Livingston of Tulsa, Okla,
who is on the return lap of a pedes-
trian trip from that city to the Seattle
fair. Carl and his brother, Herman,
left their home May 20, on wager that
they could walk to Seattle, visit the
fair and return within six months with
$1,000, which was to be aearned, in
addition to their expenses, while en-
route. They have succeeded in Great
ing surplus of $3.50, and must earn
the balance within the time prescribed
or forfeit $1,000, which they deposited
in the bank at the time of their de-
parture. In I'll event they comply with
the terms of the wager, which was
made with the Producers Supply com
pany, they are each to have $1,000.
The boys, who are 21 and 20 years
old, respectively, became separated a
month ago, and Herman now is In
Seattle, which place he will leave in a
few days. Carl succeeded in getting a
ten days concession on the fair
grounds, adding materially to the bank
roll.
The long tramp took the two boys
through Texas, a part of Mexico, Colo
rado, Wyoming, Utah, Idaho and Ore
gon. and they resorted to all sorts of
work and business ventures in order
to earn money, one of their stunts be-
ing vaudeville turn. At the fair Carl
lectured and sold fountain pens, and in
Portland Herman was a waiter in a
hotel.
Carl expects to leave Los Angeles for
Ell Paso, Texas, while Herman will en-
deavor to get a date at some of the
vaudeville houses here. BY the terms
of the wager it is no longer necessary
to hike" but $3.50 must be earned by
the two in seventy days, in addition to
living and travelling expenses, In order
for them to win the wager.

OWNER OF RICH
MINE IN MEXICO
SOUTH AFRICAN FIGHTER IS
P0SSESS0R OF BONANZA
COLONEL PARTRIDGE TELLS OF
WEALTH IN SONORA
Veteran of Boer War Declares There
Are Wide Placer Fields of
Great Value In Atlas
District

A tall, sinewy man, whose features
are tanned by the suns and winds of
many climeS, is a guest at the Hollen-
beck. He is w. j. Partridge, Colonel
to his friends and by virtue of a strong
and dangerous service under the British
flag in the late unpleasantness in South
Africa, which resulted in the reign Of
the Uitlanders. Colonel Partridge is
here from visit to the fair at Seattle,
which he pronounces a good show"
and was Joined yesterday by his wife.
He brings a tale of the riches of his
present home, Los Nores, Caborca, In
the state of Sonora, Mexico which
sounds like a fairy story. But the
Colonel, who has mined in Africa,
Australia and Alaska, besides the
United States, has the proof of the
goods with him in the shape of samples
of gold ore of fabulous richness, sup
ported by assays innumerable, reports
by prominent mining engineers and a
record of production which has already
added snug sum to his bank account.
This money was gained by hard work,
with an old-fashioned arrastra operated
by burro power, as shown In the ac-
companying pictures. This ancient plant
was installed on Ell Tigre mine, so
Tigre with which local persons are
identified, and which is in the same
state.
Steam DIspIaces Burro Power
Burro power has since been dis
placed by steam, and the mine is under
the management of L. E. Frank, F. H.
Moore and H. T. Kenneth, wealthy
operators of Denver, who recently ac-
quired the property by the terms of a
bond calling for the payment, within
eight months, of 100000, less sub
stantial sum which was paid to bind
the bargain. By the terms of the
agreement for purchase the vendees
agree to equip the mine with suitable
machinery and to sink two shafts, each
to depth of not less than 200 feet.
In case of default in the payment, the
property, together with the improve
ments. is to revert to the owners.
Colonel Partridge says that the main
vein on El Tigre is eight feet between
walls, and that the ore which has been
treated in the arrastra has run never
less than six and one-half ounces to
the ton. The specimens of picture rock
which he has with him are a white
quartz, which is heavily impregnated
with coarse gold, the ore resembling
that of the mines of the mother lode
in California.
The Colonel declares that this region,
which Is known as the Atlas district,
is extremely rich in gold, and that
there are wide placer fields of great
value, besides the quartz mines.
Associated with him is j. E. Masters,
a member of the American Institute of
Mines and we'll known as a mining en-
gineer Of probity and ability. They are
now negotiating with capitalists In New
York for the sale of another property
near Ell Tigre, and Colonel Partridge
may go to New York on this business
before returning home.

ATTEMPTS TO LIGHT GAS;
WOMAN BURNED PAINFULLY
Piece of BurIap on Wall Becomes
lgnited, Resulting in Destruc-
tIon of Cottage

While attempting to light a gas
stove yesterday afternoon the aged
mother of r. L. Bryant of 122 East
Avenue 81 was burned painfully on
the back when the burlap on the wall
became ignited, and the fire, which
quickly spread, resulted in a damage
of $1OO on the building and $500 on the
contents.
Mrs. Bryant had lighted the burners
and in turning to place a pan on the
stove accidentally brought the lighted
match in contact with the burlap COW
ering the kitchen wall. The stuff
flared up and before Mrs. Bryant could
get away her back was burned.

she was given medical attention at a
nearby house.

fire to a barn owned by ]. H. Hunter
and it was damaged to the extent of

Archbishop Asks for COadiutOr.

A meeting of the irremovable rec
tors of tie archdiocese has been call
ed by Archbishop Keane to hold a
session in Dubuque at the archeopis-
copal residence on August 18th,
when names will be suggested for a
coadjutor
Communications have been sent
out to the priests constituting the
consulting board and they will choose
number of names from which to
choose.
A meeting of the suffragan bishops
of the archdiocese will probably be
held the day following the meeting
of the priests when a number of
other names will be selected from
which to make choice for coadjutor-
ship for Dubuque. The final deci-
sion will remain with the Holy See
The announcement of Archbishop
keane sets at rest rumors that have
been current for two years past. The
condition OF the archbishop's health
has been such that his labors were
of necessity becoming arduous and
the call now made comes as no sur
prise.
AS to who the coadjutor will be
there is no possibility of forecast.
He may be a priest or bishop, but
in either event he will come from
this archdiocese. If a priest be
chosen he will be elevated TO a
bishopric. The coadjutor must be a
bishop.

When you acknowledge your dowr
and out, you're licked.
But so long as you swear that you
won't give in
That you'll hang-on and bangor un-
til you win,
No matter how hard you were cuffed
and kicked,
No matter how sadly your faith was
tricked-
If you just remember what brought
you low
And keep away from the Undertow,
It's only a matter of holding tight
Before you're back in the big world
fight.
But the man who pines and the man
who whines,
Who skulks away from the skirmish
lines,
Who hasn't the grit to swing and
hit,
And slug his way, never counts a bit
He isn't worth bothering over a min
He's out of the game and never was
in it.
A man who is really a man keeps
his luck,
So long as he keeps a good chest full
of pluck.

Monona Woman Badly Hurt.

Mrs. William Miller, aged fifty-six
years and the wife of a prominent
farmer living two miles south was
frightfully injured as the result of
a runaway as she was enroute to
town. The horse became frightened
at some object liz the road, lunged
forward and Their dashed down the
highway at a fast clip. Mrs. Miller
was thrown from the rig, striking the
ground with terrific force. She
struck on her side and the force of
the fall was sufficient to break her
Jaw, fracture several ribs and besides
this she had the lobe of one of her
ears torn off. 1t is also feared that
she has suffered internal injuries and
her condition at the present time is
precarious. Persons living along the
highway, who saw the horses wild
dash, followed a Id found the injur-
ed woman lying unconscious in the
road. She was taken to the Office of

possible, but it is feared the accident
may prove fatal.
