Head of Council

Thieves last evening broke into two
places, residence and a candy store,
got several dollars and fed without the
police knowing of their presence. At
the home of Charles Steiner, S17 North
Sixth street, 81 was taken. At the
candy store of R. v. Fairlamb & Com
pany, 20S Market street, both cash reg
listers wers rified and something like
So stolen.
After ransacking the first floor of
the Steiner home, the intruder went up
stairs and poked his head into Stein

family, but the thief ran and escaped
before an effort could be made to ap-
prehend him.
After the So was taken, something
like 81 in change was left in one of
the cash registers in the Fairlamb
store and this led to the belief that the
thieves were frightened away before
they finished their job.

Minimum Temperature of Forty De-

Tonight in Exposed Places

Unusual falls in temperature which
carried the mercury within six degrees
of the May minimum temperature rec.
ord will continue here tonight and into
tomorrow, causing frost in exposed
places tonight. Heavy damage was
done in the lake region and the Middle
Atlantic States by frost last night.
The minimum temperature here last
night was 40 degrees. No frost was
reported here, probably due to brisk
wind which was blowing. With the
abatement of the wind Weather Bureau
officials expect frost in exposed places
tonight. On May 2, 1903, the abso-
lutte minimum temperature for twenty
seven years, 33 degrees, was estab-
lished.
While frost is expected tonight,
warmer weather is promised Friday.
Temperatures close to the freezing point
were recorded in places in the lake re-
gion and the Middle Atlantic States,

. CROWDED OUT OF CAPITOL
State Game Commission Compelled to
Take Quarters in Locust Street

This is moving day for the State
Game Commission. For years the Com
mission has been confined to one room
in the Capitol but the growth of the
many duties imposed on it by new laws
has led to the demand for larger quar-
ters, especially since the scalp bounty
law has required more help and greater
room and the hunters license law has
added to the work.
To-day the Commission IS quarters
were removed to the fourth floor of the
Franklin building, on Locust street,
next door to the Orpheum, where the
business will be transacted probably
until the Capitol is enlarged.
