STATE NEWS OF INTEREST
$4,000 ROBBERY WAS
MADE At WINNEMUCCA

A daring robbery OF L. ]. Oliver
ius' mems furnishing store and tail
oring shop occurred Friday night.
which netted the burglar or burglars
about $500 worth of clothing and
shoes. They gained entrance TO the
store by forcing one of the windows
in the rear of the lower floor. At
least twenty pairs of mems shoes.
valued at about $3.50, and three doz-
en- silk shirts OF like value we're
taken, in addition to three hats, neck
ties, underwear and other things. Oil
verius estimates his loss IN merchan-
disc to be in the neighborho0d Of
$1,000, including new suits and over
coats just finished. More than
twenty suits of clothing and several
oyercoats, belonging To patrons and
in the shop for cleaning and pressing,
are estimated by ollyerins to be
worth $1,000. says the Silver state.
Mr.. and Mrs. Oliverius reside di-
rectly over the store and that the
robbery could be committed without
awakening them is considered re-
m~arkable.
Familiarity with the store and
stock seemed TO mark the operations
of the robbers. And they aslo knew
what clothing was of greatest. value
because all of the suits had been
picked over and only the best were
taken. Tie same applied in the mat
ter of the three dozen ahirts-only
the best silk materials were chosen
and shirts of 80 and less value were
scattered on the floor. A whole
show case stand OF neckties were
taken, and even the three hats were
picked from the stock with care. The
shoes taken we're sizes six, seven and
one-half and nine. only collars of
fifteen and one-half size we're taken.

ONE AMERICAN ENDS
Rhine AREA REVOLT
Ex-German Soldiers Forced by
Officer to Take Down Red
Flag, Dig Up Pole.

Single-handed, an American intelli-
gence officer recently put down a rev
dictionary movement in the area on
the Rhine occupied by United States
troops.
The first the Americans knew of the
'revolt" was when news reached army
headquarters that in LuetZ, a village
of 200 population, a red flag had been
hoisted and was waving in the breeze
at the tip of a 70-foot pole.
When the American officer arrived in
Luetz the revolution" conceived by
a society calling itself %"Frohsinn"
(Hilarity) and composed of young men
most of whom were discharged Ger
man soldiers, was we'll under way and
none of the inhabitants could enter or
leave the village without proper pass
port provided by the society members.
Luetz, like many German villages in
the hills, has no troops in the town,
the army depending upon an occasional
patrol to keep in touch with events.
The American summoned the ge-
meindevorsteher, or the chief official
of the town, who informed the officer
that this was the third attempt of the
"Fr~ohsinnists" to rule the village and
that the action was directed against
the Catholic priest, for whom the
young men had a pronounced dislike.
The American officer summoned the
| executive council of the society, pro-
vided them with pick and shovel, and
had them dig up the flag pole, amid
the applause of the conservative ele-
ment of the village.
He instructed the burgomaster to
withhold until further notice any au-
thorization for meetings of the Hi
larity,' gave the executive council a
| dressing down and instructed the n
German policeman TO patrol Luetz at
all hours on Sundays. when most po-
litical meetings are held.
Each member of the Executive
council promised to be good hereaf-
ter and none of the society members
were arrested. They agreed that the
American had convinced them hat
revolution" did not pay. The revolu-
ton had lasted six hours.

While comparisons are more less odiols, yet a
brief comparison between the colored and Japan
csc living in Seattle at this time might more fully H.
ustrate the point at issue. In Seattle there about
5000 Japanese-just two thousand more than coored
ctlzens-and while the figures to the actual number
OF Japanese engaged in commercial enterprises in this
city not at hand yet it is quite safe to say that
there are not less than 5000 distinct business firms under
control of and directed by Japanese and among them
six banks. twenty-five years ago there were not
to exceed twenty Japanese business concerns in Seattle
but their business concerns have kept pace with the
growth of the city in the way of increase in numbers
