THE CUNNING W|LES
OF WILLIE ROSAS
He Lies About His Age to Keep Out
of Reform School.

Willie Rosas. the little bog who
stole watch from William Steinbrook,
engine driver for the fire department,
will be examined this afternoon, the
proceedings looking to his commitment
to the reform school He is about as
brilliant a youth as ever fell into the
hands OF the local officers who thought
a great deal of his for information he
had furnished them from time TO time.
He is smart enough to know that
a boy six years old cannot be sent to
Benson and he says he is only six.
He cannot be surprised into varying
from that statement, though his moth
er says he is ten. It is known. too
that for the last five or six years he
has been in the habit of running away
from home and that four years ago
he ran away and was found out be-
yOnd Peoria. He was old enough then
to lie about his name and residence
so that it was with considerable diff
ficulty that the man who found him
could place him where he belonged.
In an effort to curry favor with the
officers since he mas been in jail, he
has manufactured stories of crime and
stolen goods. They have been taking
him around to various places where
he said he knew the goods were cached
but nothing could be found. 1t dawned
upon the officers at last that they had
only been taking the youth about for
exercise. He preferred walking about
town in good company to lying in Jail
with people who were not beyond re-
prOach.

strains of "Miserere," the prison

today revealed the sorry plight of a
grand opera star, who, stranded
without funds or friends. has been
thrown into jail for vagrancy.
Mile. Gabriel is the name given by
the woman to the police. She was
a member of an Italian company
which disbanded here several months
ago. Her incomplete mastery Of
English and ignorance of the laws
of this country are believed by the
officers here to be responsible for
her presen predicament.
One evening recently the opera
singer accosted a stranger on the
street and asked him FOR directions
to an address sne gave. Later she
was arrested accused of having pick
ed the mans pocket. None OF the
missing valuables were found in her
possession but she was without money
and a charge of vagrancy was pre-
ferred against her. She admitted that
she was penniless and was sent to
prison for six months.

He footed His WHISTLE. - An
aged woman was ran down by q
Northern Pacific train at Tacoma,
and literally ground to pieces, while
picking up scraps of wood ior fuel
lying on the right of way. 1t is
said that the train was running
slowly and that the engineer ex-
pected her to scramble out of the
way when he sounded his whistle.
The matter should be fully inveSti-
gated, and the man at the throttle
taught that something more than
the whistle-cord should be used in an
effort to save life, even of the old, in
firm and poor. The name of the late
victim was Mrs. James Herman, and
