Realizing that his dishonesty
would soon be found out, he tool,
$4,000 more of the banks funds and
went to Spokane, but instead Of re-
coupling his former losses. most of
this money went the same way. He
fled to Salt Lake and then to New
York, where the touts had promised
TO meet him and make good his
losses. Meanwhile his shortage had
been discovered and the case was MT
into the hands of a detective agency.
SCHNEIDER was located in the post
office at New York, where he had
gone to inquire for a letter from the
touts. He had only 10 cents in his
pockets, had not eaten a meal for
four days and had been sleeping in
the parks. He was not arrested. but
voluntarily accompanied the detect
i've to Milwaukee. Wis, near which
city his mother resided While the
detective was phoning to her from a
hotel SCHNEIDER slipped away, but
was soon located at her home at Port
Washington
J. l.. Taggart, cashier of the bank,
met him there. SCHNEIDER was not
placed under arrest, but willingly
came to ColfaX with Mr.. Taggart to
face the punishment for his wrong
doing, He seemed penitent and glad
that he was no longer a fugitive and
received his sentence cheerfully.
Warrants have been issued for the
two touts who led him astray and
the bank officials state that they will
be prosecuted to the limit. 1t is
understood that Schmidler's deficit
of $500 has been made good to the
bank by relatives.

Want More Paving

Now that the ice has been broken
and the contract let for paving 20
blocks of Pullman streets the de-
mand for street Improvement is
spreading and there is strong talk of
petitioning the council to create an
other improvement district to in
clude two blocks on Kamiaken street
from the n. p. tracks to Spaulding
street, and Whitman and Spaulding
streets between Kamiaken and Star
Route streets. When the people are
given a demonstration of the cleanli-
ness and comfort of paved streets,
there is very likely to be a demand
that the improvement be extended to
all parts of the city.

BET HIS MONEY ON SURE THING
THEN STOLE TO GET EVEN
Uniontown Banker Caught in Postoffice At
New York. Sick, Hungry and PenniIess.
He Was Glad to Return

Arthur F. SCHNEIDER, formerly as
s;stant cashier Of the Fidelity State
hank of Uniontown, on Tuesday en-
tered a plea of guilty to the charge
of grand larceny and was sentenced
by Judge Neill to term of from six
months to / 5 years in the state re-
formatory at Monroe.
There is an instructive story con-
nected with the downfall of this
young man. A few weeks ago he was
a trusted and respected citizen, with
the certainty of being promoted to
the position of cashier of the bank
In which he had been employed. He
was a quiet, steady-going young man
without any bad habits and appeared
to have a bright future before him,
when last June he started on his an
nual vacation He went to Spokane
and on the invitation of friends visit
ed the Alan race track. He had never
bet on a horse race, but yielded to
the temptation of the touts to place
some money on sure thing and
lost $500. He went back to Union
town, but couple of touts scented
an easy victim and followed him with
alluring promises of how he could
win back what he had lost and a lot
more. Again he yielded to their per-
suasion and took $1,000 from the
bank, which followed the $500.
Again the touts came to Uniontown
with plausible explanations of how
the money had been lost and assur-
ances of winning it back. With the
hope of winning enough to make
good his deficit he took $500 more,
which was also lost.
