cases of pocket picking were reported
at headquarters.
While W. J. Penquoit, 121 Chest
nut street, stood in the fringe Of a
crowd watching a woman's band in
action, a dip" touched him for 81 so.
Albert Sarber of Milton was relieved
of SIS while on a traction car, and

One rural visitor, having read of
the epidemic of automobile thefts in
Richmond, drove his car in front of
police headquarters yesterday, un-
loaded the members of his family and
then fastened a log chain around
front wheel, the axle and the crank
shaft, securing it with an immense
paddock.
Only one accident marred circus
day, and no serious injuries resulted.

in a whirlpool of traffic at Seventh
and Main streets When signaled to
cross by the traffic officer Schmen-
dingoff in his excitement started off
at full speed, bowling over Vernon
Railsback, Richmond, Miss Civilla
Bradshaw and Mrs. Edwards and
young daughter, all of New Paris.
The women escaped without injuries
but were badly frightened. The &C
cident, while not a serious one for
Railsback, was embarrassing in the
extreme. His trousers were consider
ably damaged. Schmedingoff pur
chased him a new pair. however.

their ticket of Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt and all of the big members
of the Progressive party. They de-
clared that the announcement that
Justice Hughes would accept the
nomination was bid for this support,
and one that could not be criticized,
and they insisted that when his real
views were known to the Progressives
who have been criticizing him be-
cause he had refused to make any
statement during the struggle for the
nomination, they would be considered
acceptable and he would have the
support of the rank and file of the
Progressive party.

opening parade had started. Holm es
was busy looking over the seats and
did not notice where he was going.
Splash!
This sound of some heavy object
going down in the mud right behind
him caused him to look around.
1t was an elephant coming right to-
ward him. The elephant lifted his
hoof for the next step.
Harry jumped, but he did not clear
the rope that ran along in front of the
reserved seats. He fell flat, but he
was satisfied, for he was on the other
side of the rope from the elephant,
which went majestically on it's way.
