Knives Stolen from Plumhoff Sad
dlery Company Recovered.
The officers believe that in the
arrest of A. A. Wright and Allen
Hickman on alleged charges of bur-
glarizing Pete Ellis pool hall they
have solved the mysteries OF num-
Der OF burglaries of recent date. Az
ter the arrest of the Hickman boy
Monday he told the officers the
cigars taken from Mr. Ellis place
had been hidden on the railroad
track above town short distance.
This location and a number of 9th sr
places in town were searched dur
ing the day by City Marshal Shippey
and Policeman Dixon without a re-
ward of their efforts. In the mes
time Mr.. Ellis went on a search for
himself. He visited the room of the
Wright boy in an old building on
South Washington street and he
was not long in finding his cigars.
He also made another important
discovery which cleared the mystery
of the burglarizing of the PIumhoff
Saddlery company's store few
months ago when a number Of
knives and revolvers were stolen.
Packed in cigar box and hidden
in Wrights room were twenty-three
of the knives taken from the Plum
hoff store.
The knives were turned over to
the officers and later were identi-
fled as the property of the Plum
for other stolen loot is being con-
tinued by the city officers.

Prominent EngIishmen Give Their
Opinions on The Subject.
Could Beat the U. S. II They Spent
Enough Money In Preparation.

London, Aug. 1.-The continued agi-
tation over Great Britain's poor show
Ing in the Olympic games at Stock
holm brought about meeting. tonight.
of the Athletic Advisory Club to con-
slider the situation. Lord Desborough.
who presided. said, if Great Britain
competed at Berlin, where the mex.
Olympic games are to be held, she
the other nations. He advocated a
team representing the entire empire
in the track events.
Lord Desborough said England had
not done badly in her palmiest DAYS
but could not do better against mar
vel like Kolehmainen. THE Finn did
so Well" said he. I would not be sur
prised TO see him running for the
United States in Berlin" Lord Des-
borough proposed that a fund Of
$4,000 be raised. in each of the next
three years. and $4,000, the fourth
year, to be used for preparations. A
letter from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
was read, announcing that he will ap-
peal to the public for $4,000, for the
same purpose.
The Rev. r. s. DeCourcey Laffan, p
member of the British Olympic Conn
mittee, proposed that $4,000 be
raised. He said Swedish trainer
told him, If he had had the British
athletes for three months the Ameri-
cans would have stood no chance.
j. G. Merrick, president of the Ath-
letic Union in Canada and secretary
of tho Canadian Olympic. Committee.
declared II the same care were taken
In athletics as in rowing and football
and If the Olympic winners were held
in as high regard as in the United
States, Canada and. Great Britain
could produce as good team as the
United States.
Lord Desborough is quoted as say
ing that the running track and SWIM
ming tank constructed aboard the
steamer Finland for the Americans
cost 100000. The solemn Blaekwood's
Magazine prints an editorial under the
head THE Folly of International
Sport" which is the fiercest attack
upon the Americans that has yet APP
peared 1t accuses them of being pro-
fessionals, "whose only business is II
show that these United States can
whip the universe
The editorial continues: In the
train of the heroes came a vast army
OF rooters. a peculiar adjunct to ath-
ietieism happily unknown among Eng
lishmen. We saw them four years ago
and do not cherish pleasant memory
of their antics"
The editorial concludes by advocat-
ing that the Olympic games be aban-
doned.
