THINK THEY HAVE
BICYCLE THIEVES
Detective Krengle Gets Two
Boys Who Are Charged
With Robbery.

In the arrest yesterday of Thomas
Ryan, seventeen years old. and Ro-
bart Harris. sixteen years old, De-
tective Krengle believes he has cap
tured two young thieves who have
annoyed the police for the past sixty
days with numerous thefts OF bicycles.
The boys were taken to the First Po-
lice Station and held as suspicious
characters. suspected of larceny, and
will be given a hearing tomorrow
morning before Justice crutchfeld.
For two months reports of bicycles
stolen from resting places along the
streets have daily been reported to
police headquarters. Until few days
ago no clues had been secured by the
police. Ryan and Harris. and several
other youths were placed under OBJ
servation. and evidence pointing to
their guilt was gradually accumulated
by Detective Krengle. Though Ryan
and Harris were the only two in Gus
tody late last night, it is expected
that other arrests Will follow.
1t Is claimed by the police that tho
two accused boys are members of a
gang which has systematically been
stealing wheels. They allege that tho
thieves carry off a bicycle, take e
apart and then sell the various pieces to
different people. In some instances.
the numbers of machines would oe

WHOLE ARMY WILL
Be MADE IMMUNE
Typhoid Vaccination. Already
Practiced in Virginia, Made
Compulsory.

Following repeated extensions of
the modern mode of lighting typhoid
fever. the War Department has at last
Issued peremptory order, requiring
every officer and enlisted man in the
army. save those who have had typhoid
or who have already been inoculated,
70 take the typhoid vaccination. or
the 5000 members of the army, about
1900 have already received the treat
ment. so that II will be seen that the
task VIII be no easy one for the doc
tors. Three doses are usually given
In each case, the entire treatment last
ing twenty days.
OF the 1900 vacclnated, 10000 were
made immune by this method at the
camp at San Antonio. Not a single
case OF typhoid fev.r arose there Of
a vaccinated man. Following this
most remarkable result, unparalleled In
the history of the world for a military
encampment. the War Department or
dered every recruit when examined to
take the treatment. and has followed
this up by Its sweeping compulsory
mandate.
Most of the Richmond militiamen
have been vaccinated long ago 1t Is
not however. compulsory among the
militia. although II is possible that
such course may be REQUIRED By the
war Department before State troops
are allowed to engage in joint en-
cempments, where they might intro
duce infection
The Richmond Howitzers were the
nrst command In this State. perhaps
IN the South. to take the matter up.
and most OF them have thus made
themselves immune.
