HIGHWAYMEN STEAL
AN ENTIRE RAILROAD
Rolling Stock, Depot and All of AS
sets of System Disappear-Loss
Causes Great Sorrow to
Owner

CHICAGO, May 2S-Thieves in Chi
cago stole an entire railroad yesterday
The stolen road was known as the
"Kimbark Belt Line" 1t was thirty
feet long and its right of way cut the
four angles of the sitting room in the
home of w. c. Miller in Kimbark
avenue.
One engine-a nickel plated one-four
passenger coaches, two freight and two
fiat cars comprised the tangible assets
and the invested capital was $35, o.
The motive power was electricity. The
road was soft carpet; tin horns and
dolls were passengers.
William Miller, the 5-yearold son of
the head of the house, was the control
ling genius and the only person who
took any Of the profits He was presi-
dent, general manager director OF
freight and passenger traffic, superin-
tendent, ticket taker, t1agman, conduc-
tor, motorman, brakeman and porter.
All these high and low offices and
skilled and unskilled employees are now

For Willie is a hard loser. He has
gone sobbing to the Woodlawn police
and told them of the loss of his dearest
possession.
my whole railroad is gone" he cried
to the police station. II went to dinner
and they took it out of the window.
My papa built it, and he worked an
awful long time at it. The engine was
the best, but l want the cars back too, "
The police have set out in search of
the thieves 1t is thought that boys
who envied Willie's proud position in
the railroad world are responsible for
the theft.

RAILWAY MEN DlSAPPROVE
OF HIGH POWER HEADLIGHT

INDIANAPOLIS, May 2S.-The dam
gers which arise from substituting
strong headlights for those now in use
on railroad engines was emphasized in
a conference today by the railroad COM
mission of Indiana and representatives
OF virtually all the roads operating in
the state.
The conference was called to consider
the law recently enacted, according 10
which the commission has power to or
der locomotives to be equipped with
stronger headlights if it finds on in
vedigation that such steps are adj
Visable.
The dangers from the stronger type
of lamps, it was shown, arise from the
fact. supported by a large number OF
practical tests, that the intensity of
the rays, when used on a locomoti re.
tends to destroy the power of the en-
cinemen to distinguish the different COL
ors of the switch lamps, and that sit
ting behind the strong rays for a con-
siderable length of time produces fa-
tigue of the eyes and interferes WIN

signals.

DOUBLE WEDDING FOLLOWS
SINGLE CEREMONY
Justice of Peace In Santa Ana Puts
Finishing Touches on Romances
Begun at CaWston's
Ranch

A double wedding Wednesday night
soon after a single ceremony at Santa
Ana clearly indicates that justice
of the peace at Santa Ana, the man
agement of Cawston's ostrich farm and
Cupid have formed a close corpora
ton Two of the three grooms are
brothers.
Carroll M. Peacock, who. with his
brother, Row W. Peacock, owns the
Laurel Palace cigar stand on First
street between Spring street and
Broadway, and Charles Keller, pro-
prietor of a barber shop in the Ameri-
can National Bank building, Second
street and Broadway, are the latest
recruits to the army of benedicts.
They were married at Santa Ana
Wednesday afternoon by the same jus
tice of the peace who married Roy w.
Peacock on March 1, and under cir
cumstances very similar.
The brides of the double wedding
were Miss Florence Mark, residing at
Hotel Ems on Olive street who is now
Mrs. Peacock, and Miss Estelle Good
man, proprietor of the Estelle apart
ments on First street between Broad
way and Hill street, who is now Mrs.
Keller
The singular feature of the double
wedding is that Miss Mark who was
married to Carroll Peacock Wednes-
day, introduced Miss Lillian Webb to
Roy Peacock at the Ostrich farm, the
introduction being followed by the
marriage of the young couple within
a few days. Early this week Mr.. and
Mrs. Roy Peacock, Carroll Peacock
Miss Mark, Charles Keller and Miss
Goodman visited the Ostrich farm. The
entire party soon went to Santa Ana,
looked up a justice of the peace and
procured licenses. The double cere-
mony was soon performed.

of Anna Pol

SAN FRANCISCO, May 2S.-An as

upon Myrtle Langueton, aged years,
has added new VigOr to the search
being conducted in this city for the
murderer of Anna Poltera, who was
attacked and killed on her way home
from school in Los Angeles county
several days ago.
The Langueton child was playing on
the front steps at her home in Albion
avenue in company with small boy OF
the neighborhood when a shabbily
dressed stranger enticed her into a
nearby basement on the pretense of
showing her some dolls dishes"
When she emerged from the place in
a historical condition and the news
spread that she had been attacked a
large crowd gathered and threats of
lynching were made in the event the
guilty man should be caught.
The two children failed to identify
one suspect who was arrested and ne
was released.
Another child reported that several
days before a rough looking man had
accosted her in the same neighborhood,
and the police are making a search of
that section of the city.
