EXPRESS PARCEL
Police Say Chas. Plantus Sawed Way
Out Of Box and Tries To Collect
For Loss OF Goods.

Charles Plantus, who sometimes
uses the name John Raymond, has a
most unique method of travelling.
Plantus is held on suspicion in the
central police station. following an
investigation by Detectives Baker
and Fenton. which revealed that
Plantus shipped himself in a nam
moth wooden box from Detroit to
West Pawlet. VT.
The scheme was one TO mulct the
the police declare.
On March 81. the box was shipped
from Detroit. Ii is six feet by three
feet by three feet. II now lies in the
basement of the American Express
Co.'s Office here.
When 1t was shipped. the weight
Was $50 pounds and the shipper, a
man whom the police are now looking
for, said ii contained machinery and
glass. When 1t was opened at West
Pawlet, there was nothing In 1t but a
bag of moldy crackers.
The box remained in the Michigan
Central depot all OF the night of
March 81, and the morning of April
4. 1t was put aboard a through ex-
press train. At Fletcher. Ont, the
train stopped for few minutes and
the conductor, looking ahead, saw a
man jump from the baggage car. At
the next stop the conductor wired
the authorities in Fletcher that a
tramp had jumped from the train and
was probably in Fletcher.
The man who jumped from the
train went to a little store in Fetch
er to get some cigarettes. He couldn t
get any, but he purchased a cigar
from the young woman In the store.
Detective Baker brought this young
woman to Detroit and she has identi-
ned Plantus as the man who bought
the cigar from her.
In Detroit, Plantus complained Ia
the American Express Co, that the
goods he had shipped were lost. He
said he had shipped six dozen gold
watches. six dozen gold bracelets and
ether valuable jie~elEy and seHfe teels
He placed the value OF the entire
shipment at 5000.
The express company had the box
shipped back TO Detroit and the In
vestigation was started. Detective
Baker went 10 Chatham, Ont. and the
result was the arrest of Plantus

that he will not longer carry the re-

IL is probable that the outcome OF
the conference will be an appeal 10y

the new building code, and To the
hoard OF estimates 10 allow all OF the
salary fund for the building inspec-
tion department approved by the
council
Estimator F.. Snyder chairman OF
the general fuuu- committee -of-the
board OF estimates. states that his com
mittee has already decided 10 cut out
the salary OF the chief Inspector, an
item OF $4,000 a year. leaving only a
plain examiner at $500 and four IN
spectors al $1,000 each In the inspec-
ton department
Wells himself tells us that the po-
sition is farce" says Snyder. 1t IS
doubtful If the code will pass soon. and
it may never pass. There seems no
reason, therefore. why the city should
bear this expense any longer

I'm going over this estimate. the

the commission TO go ahead and do the
best it can and TO provide information

And Constant Pain For Weeks
Marked This Case Of Rheuma-
tism WhchWas Cured by
the Tonic Treatment.

Every one who suffers from rheuma'

In the following brief statement are
wildly described the symptoms which
every patient viii recognize and the means
by which a cure was effected In tins case
is described with equal fidelity.
II you are suffering from any form oil
rheumatism with loss of flesh and strength,
and thinning OF the blood, the remedy
that was 30 effective here deserves
thorough trial.
Mrs. Marion Britt, OF No. 327 Robert
SON street, Marine City, Mich, was per
manently cured by DR. Williams Pink
Pills Her experience follows:
"A few winters ago | caught cold,

cine that had cured rheumatism and
while looking for such a remedy, my

thorough trial. They helped me from
the start and / took several boxes 70
make certain of q complete cure. | think
very highly OF DIR. Williams Pink Pills
and have since given them with benefit
to my daughter for impure blood"
That the ordinary medical treatments
OF rheumatism are far from satisfactory
is known by everyone who has ever sui
fered from the disease. To every sufferer,
therefore, the fact that DIR. Williams
Pink Pills cure rheumatism, as hundreds
of cases like the above proves, will be
welcome news. Some of these cures are
gwen In our booklet, Diseases OF the
Blood" which will be sent free upon
postal card request This booklet also
contains information of value to every
sufferer from impure blood.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills are also
highly recommended for chlorosis OF
green sickness, general debility, anemia,
stomach trouble, and the after-efiects OF
the grip and fevers.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills are sold by all
druggists, or will be sent, postpaid, on
receipt of price, 80 cents per box; six
