Dear Sir:-It has frequently fallen to
my lot to visit institutions, public and
private. Let me say, however, that
have never been received with more cour-
tesy than by the officers In charge of the
Mount Holly prison. My object was to
see two youthful offenders. The kindness
of the officers, their manifest desire to aid
the lads In forming and keeping good res
olutions made strong impression upon
me.

A little quiet sleuthing by Mayor
Roberts, of Beverly, led to the capture

city, In Bristol, Pa, and he is held on the
charge of rob bling the Asbury Park

several hundreds of dollars. The rob-
berry was discovered last week, when
brother of Mrs. Squires went to the closed
cottage. A panel had been cut out of the
Mayor Roberts found most of the stolen
articles in possession of Mrs. Mary Carr,
at Beverly, who said she had purchased
them from Zeigler, rather eccentric
character of the town. He said he was
selling them for friend, and she did not
suspect that they had been stolen. The
Mayor then got on Zeigler's trail. He ran
across a deckhand of the ferryboat that
plies between Burlington and Bristol,
who told him that Zeigler had crossed the
river two weeks ago and had carelessly
/ thrown away an envelope that bore his
name. From this clue the Mayor began
a search of Bristol, but no trace of the
man was found until Friday night, when
he was caught on his way from work In q
mill there. Zeigler is an eccentric char.
acter, who lives out in the open. Two
weeks ago he was found hanging head
downward between the steps that lead tc
the cellar of bank. He was allowed tt
go free at the time. although he wanted
the marshal to arrest him. he has si1

Pioneer Real

Byron Reed Company to Move from
the Place it Has Occupied
Since 1851.

After forty-nine years OF continuous BUSH

Reed company will move. A. L. Reed
Tuesday signed a lease for quarters in >ne
Brandeis Theater building, taking the cor
ner store nearest the alley.
The late Byron Reed opened q real estate
office In Omaha in the year 1851 his first
olflee being in the rightly named Pioneer
block between Eleventh and Twelfth on
Farnam. In the year 1861 ne occupied the
ground where the business has been con-
Quoted ever since. A brick building was

1854 A. L. Reed. the head OF the company
since his father died, entered the business
in January, 1887, at which time incorpora-
ton took place.
NO Omaha business can show 30 long

has Just decided to move. The First Ma

Reed Real Estate agency was established

the First National bank opened its doors

amiable purpose of soaring Frank on.
He found Harding away at the end
farthest from the cabin, busy getting
posts for the fence. Matthews was en-
tirely unknown personally to Harding,
but after saying How do?" he calmly
told the astonished Frank that he
would have to skip, as he (Matthews)
wanted the place himself, and had
meant to take it up before Frank had
ever struck the country at all. Or
course, that was no argument, but II
sufficed for Matthews. Harding, when
he had recovered sufficiently from his
surprise at this cool intimation, In
formed his visitor that he had taken
the place up quite legitimately and
meant to hold It, Tuck heard him
out In silence. Then he told Harding,
with many picturesque oaths, that he
would give him nine days to clear out.
and II he was not out by that time
he would put him past taking an In
terest in anything earthly. Then he
rode off.
On the ninth day the young rancher
was sitting eating his dinner, when
he heard hoof-beats outside the door,
which was standing open on account
of the heat. Next moment a revolver
shot rang out, and Matthews voice
shouted: "Well. you son of coyote.
so you won't get. won't you, eh?"
Harding canted his shotgun up and
fred from the hip. without raising 1t
to his shoulder. Immediately he had
pulled the trigger he stepped back be-
hind the door. The shot was followed
by a thud and sound OF galloping
hoofs.
Looking through the space between
the wall and the door. Harding saw
his enemy lying stretched on the
ground-stone dead.
Harding was acquitted and had nc
further trouble. He is now living
peacefully on the ranch with his wife
and children.

IMPROVING MORALS IN CHINA
Influence OF Christian Teachings
Shown In the Changed condi-
tions Found There.

"The public conscience is now be-
ing awakened upon this aspect of pub
lie morality. Last week | was In
vited to take part in meeting or
ganized by men who are not directly
connected with any Christian church,
but who are sincerely desirous of Az
sisting in the reformation of their
countrymen. Their purpose was to
start an antigambling league, and
with this In mind they called public
meeting. which was attended by some
hundreds of Chinese scholars and
business men. and resolutions were
passed in approved public meeting
style, approving Of campaign against
the gambling vice. Members of the
Chinese Young Mems Christian asso-
citation were asked to assist In the
meeting. and to demonstrate by the
means of games the possibility of
recreation without vice. Suitable ad-
dresses were given by prominent Chi
nese, and the chief organizer of the
movement is one of the government
education inspectors for the provinces
of Kiahgsu and Kiangsi. A Chinese
Roman Catholic teacher gave a violin
solo, n Chinese secretary of the Young
Mems Christian association rendered
two cornet solos, and Protestant
missionary sang to the gathering. The
whole meeting was conducted in so
ORDERLY and orthodox a fashion that II
vas scarcely possible to realize how
tremendous reformation In the
whole Chinese outlook upon public
life this meeting revealed. Twenty
years, even ten years. ago such a
meeting would not have been within
the realm of possibility. Today we
have class of public moralists arising
who have undoubtedly learned from
| Christianity In their midst the ideals
which they are desirous of impressing
| upon their countrymen."
