HOLD EXAMINATION
FOR APPRENTICES
Those Who Qualify Will Be Given
Cards Emitting Them to Do
Work Of Plumbers.

An examination for plumbers will be
held tomorrow at the city nall under
the direction of Plumbing Inspector
Tom Rosenfield and half dozen men
who have served apprenticeships as
plumbers will be given a chance to
prove themselves capable of holding
certificates emitting them to do the
work of a first class mechanic The
examinations are not held at stated
periods, but at such times as there
seems to be a need for them. Mr.. Ro-
senfield recently was requested by sew
eral apprentices to hold an examina-
ton so that they can become plumbers
in fact, and accordingly the tests will
be conducted tomorrow. The ques-
lions which are asked the applicants
are along practical lines of plumbing
and are such as the ordinary plumber
has to know in order to do his work
in a satisfactory manner.

first heard of him was when lie held
up the station agent and baggageman
at Clinton and his next job was the
robbing of the Pottiger restaurant on
Fifth avenue opposite the Rock Island
depot. Then he made two raids at
small points in iowa before returning
to this city and holding up the Casino
saloon on Twenty-Iourth street. That
was a few months ago and nothing
had been heard of him until last night.
He presented the same appearance as
on his former raids and there is no
doubt but that he is the same man.
He dressed as a railroad fireman with
cap, jumpe S and overalls and had a
blue handkerchief over his face below
his eyes while in the saloon. The
police have no trace of him.

The mysterious negro seems to pre-

tends to rob. The proprietors OF these
places fight shy OF notifying the police
after the holdup because in doing
so they have to admit that
they were keeping their places open
on Sunday. This gives the robber n
longer time TO get away. He has been
most successful in escaping after his

night came nearly being his last. Tne
