Three Men Robbed on a Gar.
field Street Car Thursday.
Believed That Organized Gang
Worked Topeka Circus Day.

A well organized gang of pickpockets
and light-fngered individuals were in
Topeka Thursday working in the
crowds which thronged Kansas avenue
ing into the city.
-. L. SQuires. a resident of Kilmer
station. was robbed of $40 Thursday
while coming to Topeka from Meriden
On Santa Fee train. Mr. Suuires was
on his way to California.
Three men were robbed by pick
pockets on a Garfield street car about
o'clock Thursday evening. Harry
aobson. signal engineer of the Santa
re eastern lines. was robbed of hi
passes and five dollars in money.
AT the tine the victims learned of
their loss the street car was stopped
while the conductor telephoned to head
quarters for instructions. His instruc-
tons were tu run his car'-that he
wasn't detective. No further attempt
was made then to catch The thieves, and
the police say no report Of the affair
was made to them. Mr.. Hobson saws
one OF the men. whom he did not know
claimed to have lost about $3.50, while
the third. also a stranger, lost a con-
siderable amount. Persons on the car
believe the pfck-pocket was a woman
The street car robberies occurred be-
tween the Union Pacific and Rock
Island depots.
This morning letter carrier in North
Topeka found the pocketbook belong
Ing to Harry Hobson in a mail box.
All Of HIS railroad passes were intact,
but five-dollar bill and a pair Of gold
cuff links we're still missing.
An expert gang Of pickpockets is
following the Barnum and Bailey cir
Gus, according to the police. The circus
performed at st. Joseph Wednesday,
and four complaints were filed by
people whose pocketbooks were deity
purloined by experts. One st. Joseph
man lost $11O in cash and $500 in checks:
second man lost SIS and two gold
rings; the third missed a silver watch
and $40 in cash. while pickpocket OBJ
tanned $65 from a fourth man. No ar
rests were made at st. Joseph and the
Topeka police have as yet been unable
to find any trace of the pocket pickers.

Death of Robert Perry

The death angel came into our
midst and took away our beloved
baby after an illness of only six
days, Cholera infantum that
dread disease had fastened upon
the little one ere we were aware
of it and though every thing pos
sible was done to save him, God
called him home Wednesday. 10th
at 2:30 p. m.
Robert Ernest Perry was born
December %, 1912 and died Aug
ust 10, 1914, age l year, 7 months
and 81 days. He was loved by
all who knew him and only for
the thought that he has gained
far better home than he could
ever enjoy here, we could not
bear the pain of parting from the
dear little one.
He leaves father, mother, one
sister, three grand parents and
several aunts and uncles with an
ache In their heart that nothing
but time can heal. The sympathy
of the entire community goes out
to the bereayed ones in their time
of trouble.

Carl Olmanson and Henry and Chas.
Hahn we're transacting business in town
times during the week. They
are all ideal farmers and can make the
most of them "sit up and take notice."
Rev. f. j. Hubbard preached here on
Sunday and after the services the con-
%gregation discussed ways and means for
the erection of a new Presbyterian
church. A committee consisting of Aug.
Moritz, W. j. Slade and E. I. Ingersoll
we're appointed to look after matters in
detail. Agenerous amount has already
been subscribed end success is assured.
In the ball game Sunday the result
was 5 to 7 IN favor of Langdon. The
boys were defeated owing to a number
of errors due no doubt to want of prac-
tice. A large crowd of visitors were here
from Langdon and a general feeling of
good will was manifested. Langdon
played a clean game and the boys were
we'll pleased with the treatment receiv.
ed from the visitors.

CITY NOW
OPERATES FORDS
Sixty-Three Ford Automobiles in
Operation Daily by the Kansas
City Municipal Officers.

Detroit, Mich, June Gone city
seemingly has solved the transportation
question to its entire satisfaction by
installing an equipment of Fords for the
city officials and other municipal en-
ployes whose duties make it necessary
for them to do a good deal of travelling
about. A letter recently sent by M. A..
Flynn, city comptroller of Kansas City,
Mo-, to the Kansas City branch of the
Ford Motor Company, shows beyond
doubt that the city fathers have never
regretted for a minute selling an equip
ment of heavy cars aud replacing them
with Fords. "About a year ago we sold
all our high priced heavy machines"
says the comptroller. "lhe city is now
operating about sixty-two machines of
which more than t%wo-thirds are Fords.
They have given satisfaction in every
particular. The first cost and the up.
keep cost, of course, is a great deal less
than for our other cars, and they do the
work we require of them easier and
better. Any municipality figuring on
installing an equipment of cars can do
no better than to buy Fords.' Practi-
cally every city of Importance in the
country uses F'ords in municipal service.
But Kansas City is most prominent
among the cities using Fords. Eleven
heavy cars purchased by the city at a
cost of s2l, $50 we're disposed of a year
ago at public auction for S3,657.5O in
depreciation. The reason given by the
