BOY SNATCHED
$40 BILL AND
CHASE ENSUEO
OFFICER BURKE CAME TO RES
CUE OF SMALL BOY WHO
HAD BEEN ENTRUSTED WITH
THE BANkNoTE TO CHANGE.

Quite a chase came to an abrupt
ending yesterday afternoon shortly
after 4 o'clock, near the corner of Gov
eminent and Palafox streets when Of
ficer Burke, standing near the corner
on the west side, captured a negro
boy scarcely in his teens, who was be-
ing followed closely by another darkey
about the same age When the second
boy kept yelling for somebody to stop
the hoy he was following the big Of
ficer thought something had happened,
just like he afterward discovered had
taken place, for the first boy had
snatched a ten-dollar bill from the
other and had tried to make his get
away. The losing boy. however was
too game for any such trick, and fol-
lowed, yelling all the time. The officer
named came to his rescue, and the
boy being chased was found with the
money, which was quickly identified
by the other one.
On a charge of larceny, the boy was
locked up at the county jail yesterday
and will be given a hearing before the
acting recorder this morning. He will
in all probability be turned over to
the probation officer.
The boy who lost the money was in
keeper, en- West Intendencia street.
Tabarris gave the boy. who is much
trusted by his employer. a ten dollar
note to have changed yesterday after
noon and the other boy saw the trans
action and heard the instructions. Fol
lowing the boy with the money, it was
claimed that near the corner Of Gov
eminent and BayieH streets the al
legged highway robbery occurred, and
for the next few minutes things hap
pened quickly. Running easy on Gov
eminent street, the alleged thief
seemed to be t-distancing his pur-
suer when the policeman. taking in
the situation, promptly acted and will
act as prosecutor this morning, be-
cause the officer found the money in
the pocket of his captive. Both boys
are under age.

I have made empty all my heart for

I have shut out all the mad noise
of the world,
Closed every window, made the doors

And from each chamber to the wind

Old thoughts, old base desires, old
sins, old stain,
Yea, swept my heart as all the earth
is swept by April rain.
Down the long corridors there is no
sound.

That shall be gladness when you come

IT am not surprised to observe the
number Of men who come into the store
to purchase Mothers Friend remarked
2. leading druggist.
The eEpeotant mother II she hasn't
heard of this splendid embrocation is
probably not reading the papers TO much
extent. And If she does IL is happy
thought to send hubby to the drug store.
Mothers FRIEND is apr''e1 externally
over the abdominal muscles.
It is a gertie, soothing lubricant, pens-
trates to the fine network of nerves
beneath the skin and has marked
tendency to relieve the muscular strain
10 which these broad. fiat abdominal
muscles are subjected. The cords, ten
dons and ligaments are thus permitted &c
stretch without the corresponding surface
strain so often involved during the period
of expectation. And particularly to young
mothers is this remedial application OF
inestimable value since in thus keeping
the muscles firm but plant It enables
them to go through the ordeal without
