MANY THOUSANDS. ALLEGED ST0L FEN. FROM KENTUCKY.
Safe Deposit Boxes Broken Open and RiAed-One
 Man in Custody.

Al Larson is in custody and war rants have been telegraphed for Ray Hightower and Harry 2 Butler on charges of riling the safe deposit boxes at the Kentucky Pool Room and taking from them money and valuables that may amount to many thousand dollars, according to city and Federal officials. Out of nest of eighty boxes contained in safe, on open and their contents taken out.
 Discovering of the theft was made last evening when Chief of Police Keegan suspecting that some thing of the sort might have oc- cured, secured the combination to the safe from John DeLateer and John De Hay, owners, who are now in the Federal Jail serving sen tences for the illegal sale of in toXicating liquor. The examination showed that the first box opened had been drilled and several pried from their hinges. Others were op- ened by the lock being chiseled out
 It is alleged that Al Larson and Ray Hightower had secured charge of the business from De Hay and DeLataer and that Hightower was given the combination of the safe as he stated that he expected to open up for business and would have use for it.
 The boxes were for the conven- ence of patrons and at times it is said have contained as high as $5O.- 900 in money and valuables, includ- iEg watches, rings and nugget chains. During the time the pro- prietors were in trouble it is said that some of the money and other valuables was taken out but there is every probability that many thou sands of dollars yet remained. It is said that no record was made of box renters and the actual loss can only be determined as claimants appear.
 Larson was arrested last night by

 FOR AGREEMENT
Ship Owners Refuse to Yield on Proposed Wage Cuts
 and Other Questions. SHIPPING IS TIED-UP
No Movement of Vessels from Seattle, San Francisco
 and Other Ports.

WASHINGTON May 4. - Pros- poets for early settlement of the marine workers strike which has wholly or in part tied up shipping at virtually every American port ths afternoon seemed considerably less bright through failure to reach basis for agreement at confer tatives and members of the United States Shipping Board with Secre- tary of Labor James j. Davis and Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover.
 It is understood the ship owners refused %to yield on proposed wage reductions and other questions and it also was said that the shipping board insisted on the fifteen per cent cut which was put into effect on all government owned vessels last Saturday night, few hours before the strike started.
 Before the conference Secretary Davis met with union representatives but, it is said, found them equally firm against suggested compromise.

The children had had beautiful
most wonderful of hay rides in the
morning. How high-up they had felt,
riding on the hay wagon.
And how many games there were
to play when they were riding along.
Almost rs many games as there were
when they played in the hay-loft.
In the afternoon. because 1t was so
hot, they were all allowed to 60 wad-
ing in the brook and to stay bare
footed the rest of the day.
After that when they were all cooled
off they went for bicycle races and
the ones who had no bicycles rode on
the handlebars of the others bicycles.
Some Of the children rode their BIZ
cycles very well. They could go for
long distances without touching their
hands to the handlebars. And how fine
they did look, sitting up straight, with
arms crossed, guiding the bicycle by
clever balancing.
But later in the afternoon it began

most of the children in the little viii
lage played together every day of va
cation time.
When it began to rain the mother
Of two of the children said, "I'll tell
you what you can do, children"
They all listened eagerly.
"Of course you know the garrett"
Yes, they all knew the garnet, for
many an outdoor circus had become
a garnet circus on rainy day and
many had been the plays given in the
garnet and the charades and the
games.
Oh. yes, they all knew the garnet.
There were so many fascinating old
things In the garnet too which had
been in other parts Of the house dur
ing some of the hundred years that
the house had been built.
There were beds and chairs and
tables and old stoves. Playing house
was one of the most wonderful Of
things to do in the dear old garnet.
And 1t was SO large garnet, too,
that many could play house at the
same time and go about the garnet
visiting each other.
But" continued the mother who
was talking, I'm going to suggest a
new garrett party for you.
"When my great-grandmother came
as bride to this old house. which my
great-grandfather had built for her,
she brought with her most beautiful
trousseau Of clothes and bonnets and
shawls. She always kept them and
when they were quite out Of style she
put them in an old trunk.
every year we brush out the
trunk and put the clothes back. But
it seems to me that it would be only
right to make a little use of those
clothes.

mother would like it If we did.

the clothes from the old trunk. And
for the boys there are some of great
grandfather's high hats and capes
there too.
There are even gold trimmings
worn in the War Of 1872"
The suggestion was followed by
cheers. What a wonderful time they
would have, so the key to the trunk
was brought forth-the trunk that had
always been a mystery to them-and
there they saw fascinating clothes Of q
hundred years ago.
But alas, when they tried to wear
the clothes they all fell to pieces.
The hats fell right through and the
dresses were like tissue paper the
way they tore.
They played all the rest Of the after
noon and pretended they were ladies
and gentlemen Of many years ago, hav-
ing handsome receptions and gorgeous
entertainments and beautiful gather
ings.
Later the mother who had suggested
,his party came up to the garnet and
when she saw the old clothes-now
rags and tatters of bygone fnery-she
said:
"Well, do believe that the clothes
are too old for playing And after all,
one hundred years, even for dresses
and hats, is pretty old to be taking
part In garnet games"
And everyone decided that 1t was
40 wonder, considering the age Of the
clothes, that they had shown SO little
strength and endurance for rainy af-
ernoon playing!
