REAL HOME FOR THE HOLE
FInds Secure Abiding Place After .
Period Of Troublous
Nanderinns.

Everett p. Dahlgren, the millionaire
opponent of woman suffrage, said at
q suffrage debate In Boston;
II always declare that woman
shouldn't entcr politics till she's frL
filled all her prior duties.
prior dutiesi Prior dutiesi' 30
a young lady Knocked me one day.
What do you men mean by these
prior duties" that you're always talk
Ing about. Mr.. Dahlgrenr
80 then told the young lady this
story:
"Once upon a time. I began. q little
hole was born: and II looked around
to see where It should take up it,
abode.
1T FIRST decided on window. but .
iuan came straightway and put In .
new pane. It next chose chair seat.
but the housewife sent for . Gamer.
and In Jify new seat was put In
the chair. The hole now selected .
baby's rattle, and the baby was 20
pleased that Il began to tear the rat
tie to pieces, and the poor hole. half
crazed with fright. had just time to
escape. II threw itself. more dead
than alive, into the first thing that
came to hand. which happened to b
the sock of suffragist's husband.
There. at least, the hole seems to
have found q real home. Its pease
has not been troubled from the be-
ginning. six months ago."

GANG OF BOX CAR THIEVES

Sheriff Harris returned from
Salt Lake last SDight with F. 2.
Wheeler. who sails under that name
and several others, who is charged
with grand larceny. While that is
the charge filed against HIM, Wheel
er is the leader Of a gang of box
car thieves that have operated on
the Western Pa .itic for over a year.
When arrested in Salt Lake, a
trunk containing 1874 pair of buck
skin gloves, consigned to the San
Francisco mint, was found in his
possession. The officers have been
after him and his gang for over a
year but never could get the proof
suffi cient to land him in the pen
This they now have ard he has
agreed to plead guilty to burglary
and take his medicine as soon as it
can be administered to him which
will be as soon as Judge Taber re.
turns.
Wheeler has a long criminal re-
cord. When a boy he ran away
from a reformatory in Philadelphia
and has since served terms in four
different psnitentiaries. As he is
only 81 years old it is readily seen
that he has been a very Busy thief.
