Mrs. R. L. Alder had her"purse, containing a small amount of change and some street car tickets, Bnatched from her hand at Third and Oak streets. She described the thief to Patrolman Thomas and George Gould was arrested on suspicion. Mrs. Alder identified him. He lives at Vinegar hill.

George Anderson,of Parmersburg, was capiaaed by William Shields for an account which was somewhat complicated on account of a watch trade. Shields obtained judgment for $39.25 in Justice Felsentfial's court Saturday evening. The plaintiff then instituted proceedings to compel the defendant to satisfy the claim, but that complaint has not been tried.

Thomas Kelley, an inmate of St. Anthony's hospital, and slightly demented, was found on the streets on Friday night with $173.30 in his possession. He is almost blind and was taken to jail for "safe keeping," being then unknown to the officers. His identity was learned Saturday morning, and he was returned to the hospital. He received $250 from some source, at present un known, last W6ek.

The citizens of Macksville have ob jected to paying the taxes for general purposes for the year 1888, because they dissolved their corporation six months ago. They were willing to pay their special school and tuition tuxes as corporation but wanted to escape pay ing the corporation rates for other taxes, The question was submitted to County Attorney Long, and he decided that they would have to pay taxes as a corporation for 18S8. When the affairs of the corporation shall have been settled any money that may then remain must be appropriated by a vote of the citizens of the former corporation.

THE COBLEIGH FACTORY.

Iff

An Agreement Signed by Which It Is to lie Brought Here.

Before Mr. Cobleigh left the city last week to comply with an engagement in New York he signed an agreement with the representatives of the Business Men's association to move his piano caae manufactory here from Leonmenster, Mass. He stipulates that he will begin the erection of the buildings before June let next, but says he will begin much sooner than that date. He has partially contracted with the Wabash lumber company for a large supply of lumber, and will soon let the building contracts. No location is specified in the agreement, but is expected that the 6ife at Maple and Sixteenth, between the C. fc E.. I and the I. & St. L. roads, will be accepted. This largely depends on the extension of the water mains to the ground. Mr. Collett was in Chicago on Friday conferring with the water works people and received a proposition from them on which action must be taken. The factory will consist of two connected brick buildingp, each 150x60 feet, and four stories in height. There will be boiler and engine house in what will eventually be the square formed by two more buildings joining the two at right angles, to be erected in the spring. Mr. Cobleigh guarantees that at the start he will give employment to 200 men. Sec retary Thompson, of the business men's association, will immediately begin the collection of the subscriptions to the fund which is to be given to Mr. Cob leigh as the inducement for the removal of his works to this city.

SUICIDE OF FRANKLIN B. GOWEN.

The liumnins Taken to Germaatown Preparations For the Fuuernl. Philadelphia,

December 15.—The

remains of Franklin B. Gowen, who committed suicide in Washington, reached this city this morning and were at once conveyed to his late residence at Mt, Airy, near Germantown. It is the desire of the family that the funeral, which is to take place Tuesday morning, shall be extremely private, and only the relatives, minister and family physician are expected to attend. All inquiry has thus far failed to reveal any cause for the rash act. The members of the family positively refuse to be interviewed, and the closest personal and business friends of Mr. Gowen are unable to assign any reason why he should wish to end his life. It is related that a fortnight ago, when' he decided to leave this city for his suburban home, Mr. Gowen boarded the wrong train, a thing he was never known to do before, and was carried some little distance out of his way. It is said that Mrs. Gowen tofd a close friend of the family that for ten days previous to her husband's last visit to Washington she had noticed something in his conduct. It is thought by many here, that the great lawyer's mind became unballanced through persistant application to business and that the suicide was due to this cause.

THE INDIAN SHOW LEAVES TOWN.

County Auditor Armstrong: Gets Oat a Wrii of Attachment. Dr. McGraw's Indian show has left? the city. This show has been holding the boards for several months at the old court house hall at Third and Main streets. Mr. McGraw had rented the hall until March 1. The show has consisted of second clsss music, acrobatic performances and feats by a pair of bears. When the stock in trade of the show had been started to the depot County Auditor Armstrong remembered thatDr. McGraw had agreed with the county commissioners that he would us* the hall until March 1 at a certain rate per month. Hence be made an affidavit that the show was indebted to the county by reason of this agreement not being fulfilled. On this affidavit the chattels comprising the show were attached and Dr. MoGraw filed a delivery bond for the payment of all indebtedness to the county. Mr. R. J. Sparks, who collects rents for county property, was bondsman and said that the rent had been paid for the time during which the hall had been used. Auditor Armstrong caused the goods to be attached because he knew that tbe commissioners had not been notified of the removal, and they might want some assurance of the contract being fulfilled either by Dr. McGraw or a substitute. It is understood that "Jack" Bodewin will start a show in the same hall.
