WAS "ON WATER WAGON."

Probably the most cunningly devised and most vicious assault and robbery that ever occurred in Richmond was yesterday perpetrated by Henry Kroma, Leroy alias "Red" King, and Vera Sparks who discovered Andy Lutz an employe of the Hoosier Drill into the woods north of the citty and

there assaulted and robbed him in broad day light, leaving him in a semitconcious condition while they) returned to the city to spend the money, which amounted to bnt $5. Kroma, King and Sparks, were in the saloon owned by John II. Schell at 600 North Twelfth street, when Lutz came in to get some change, he wishing to break a five dollar bill in order to pay his board. The three men watched Lutz'a movements, and as soon as they found out that he had money on his person, they asked him to play a game of pool which he did. In fact several games were played but it is said owing to the crooked methods employed by the other men Lutz paid for the whole. While playing Sparks stated that he knew where the party could get four guns and asked why they should not go hunting. Go on "Fake" Hunt All consented and they started north on Twelfth street, and after crossing the Twelfth street bridge, the party turned East, along the old mill race and ravine. They progressed to a point about opposite Sixteenth street, and two of the men started a fake fight, Lutz interf erred and he was knocked down in an unconconcious condition, and his pockets rifled and about $5 in money was secured. Lutz soon gained semi-conciousness ! and saw hat he had been robbed. He staggered to his feet and waded across the river and went to the home of Frank Halston, on North Sixteenth street where he received aid and was taken to police headquarters, where he told his tale. As Kroma, King and Sparks had been seen together yesterday morning, suspicion turned to them and Sergeant McManus and Patrolman McNally went to the Red r io-, oinnn Vflrth v eiraaf t, fa-! vorite loafing place of the men, and cMnred them. They were taken to headquarters where Lutz indentified liom ncs iYia ocaoHanHa T .it7.'a mnn- I ey was found on Kroma while the other men carried- a' small artillery of guns and knives. Think They Robbed Store. The police have a clue that points toward the men, as those who robbed Hall's Hardware store on Main street Sunday night of $9.27, and several re volvers.. The guns taken from the ' men at headquarters were all new, j while a quantity of small change in ; the form of nickles and dimes was found on K?ma All the money ta

ken from the Hall store was siali j mg cf West Second street, and the rechange. In addition to this the moth-' 8Uit of the consultation between the er of 'Red King" came to police head- j Board and the Pennsylvania representquarters early yesterday morning and atives. the Board of Public Works

stated that she wished t3 police to look after the boy as he had been out all night Sunday. As the matter is more thoroughly sifted everything points towards the three men as the culprits figuring in the robbery Supt. of Police Bailey also last evening that he was almost confident that the three men figured in several recent robberies about the city. TEACHER HAS DIPHTHERIA Miss Nellie Lowe Taken Sick But It is Thought Her Pupils Will Not Suffer III Effects. Miss Nellie B. Lowe, a teacher at (he Starr school has been taken ill with diphteria and much consternation was caused among school authorities over the fact. It was thought that many of the pupils were subjected to the disease, but as Miss Lowe did not take sick until Friday, her physician says that the pupils would not suffer any contagion, there was no school the day previous, it being Thanksgiving. PRESENTED BAD CHECKS Frank W. Davis, a former prominent insurance agent of this city, has been arrested in Indianapolis on. the charge of rasslng two fraudulent personal checks at the Stubbins Hotel at which place he was boarding. The cfcecks only called far $5 each, but the proprietors complained to the police and Davis' arrest soon followed.

CONGRESS GETS TO WORK TODAY. Our Old Friend Mr. Corporation I'm afraid he won't be a bit respectful to me this session.

MATTERS BEr ORE NIGHT TOLD Councilman Deuker pointedout that North A street between 2nd and 3rd streets, was in bad condition and that the property owners in that district iw.ere complaining of the existing con ditions. The matter was referred tc the Board of Public Works. Councilman Leftwick stated that owing to the present congested condition of North 7th street between Main ajid A streets, it would be dangerous for the fire department to try to make a run in that district. The hitch rack, when filled, occupies half of the street and when the express wagons take their places along the other side there is little driving room. The matte.r was referred to the Board of Public VV OlKS. The petition of Oscar Pardock, city live stock inspector for a larger salary, was rejected. Pardock's present sal- ; ary is forty dollars per month. that the interurban officials stated . that "dimmers" were being placed on the Interurban cars operating in the city.

Councilman Charles Wettig, chairman of the committee on schools, made a report, in which he highly complimented Supt. Mott, Principal Heironemus and the teachers of the Garfield school, on the excellent manner in which they conducted the open session at the school Nov. 21st. Mr. Wettig recommended that the board of public instruction carry the scheme into all the schools of the city. The Board of Public Works asked for an appropriation of $250 for the purchase of the land lying between the Municipal Light plant and the river." The matter was laid over until the next meeting of council. Dr. Charles S. Bond, secretary of the City Board of Health, submitted the report dealing with the investigation of reported cases of cow pox among the dairy cows of the neighborhood. Dr. Bond was requested to make the report at the last meeting of the coun-( cil, but owing to some misunderstand in the report was presented b Hoover, the city dairy inspector.

COUNCIL LAST IN BRIEE MANNER Health, that no cow pox has been discovered, and we believe none exists among the cattle regularly furnishing milk to the citizens of Richmond. Yours respectfully, CHARLES "S. BOND, Secretary of Board of Health. . Councilman Bartel said that the city ordinance in regard to prohibiting the throwing of waste paper upon the streets, was not being enforced, and recommended that the ordinance be strictly enforced in the future. Councilman Englebert was of the opinion that all persons caught throwing matterials into the streets should be arrested and the practice would therefore soon stop. The matter was referred to the police department. Councilman Brown stated that the city ordinances coverinig the removal of gates opening onto the sidewalks, was not being enforced and neither was the ordinance governiing the. hitching of horses to weights of standJ a P"S? arose as to the standard ' size of weights that should be used for hitching purposes, but this was also left to the Jurisdiction of the police department. The greatest feature of the discussion of the pole ordinance, which requires all the wooden poles to be moved off Main street, was the assertion of Councilman Deuker that several other members of the body, had not wmvi , eMorofn f fcfa .

This ordinance was laid over for another reading. Councilman Leftwick also submitted an ordinance but after the reading of the City Attorney's ordinance he withdrew his. This Councilman Deuker w'ould not do, but wanted the council to either pass or kill his ordinance last night. No action was taken. The whole matter will come before the next council for another rehashing, as nothing tangible was accomplished st night. MARY SIBBIT TO SPEAK AT GRACE M. E.

Chicago, Dec. 3. In the midst of a cross examination which tested every point of his testimony, Albert Young former organizer of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, testified in Judge Ball's Court today that $5,000 was demanded by Cornelius P. Shea, president of the organization, for call ing the teamsters' strike of 1905 which made the streets of Chicago scenes of riot and union warfare for 100 days. The sensation came unexpectedly at a time when Young had become rest ive under examination, and staggered the defense. Young declared that Shea told him of his efforts to get $5,000 to call the strike. Failing to get the . larger amount. Shea accepted $300 of a fund of $1,500, provided by Robert Noren president of the Garment Workers' Un ion, said Young. The fact that the evidence appeared during cross examination rendered it the most damaging evidence revealed thus far In the trial. Efforts to show that Young had drunk much intoxicating liquor when bribes of $300 each were said to have been given to Cornelius P. Shea, Jer ry McCarthy, Hugh McGee, James Bar ry and Young, for calling the strike were not successful. "I was on the waterwagon," declar ed Young. "We went to many sa loons all right, but I drank no intox icants." The witness leaned forward dramat ically. "We sat about a table In a saloon in the stock exchange building," he went on, "and as Robert Noren, presi dent of the Garment Workers' Union counted out the rolls of $300, Shea pushed them across the table to each of us.' Afterward Shea told me about trying to get $5,000. This amount he said would have been satisfactory." Disease Returns. Scarlet Fever. Edwin Carr, aged fifteen ' months, 405 North Fourteenth street.

Sir Walter Scott says "early authori ties show us no such persons as Banquo and his son Fleance. Even the very names seem to be fictitious, as they were net Gaelic and are not to be found In any of the ancient chronicles or Irish annals. Neither Is a thane of Lochaber known in Scotch history, though Sir Bernard Burke makes Banquo a descendant of Ken neth IL and thane of Lochabyr. Malone says that after Banquo's assassination Fleance fled to Wales, where he married a Welsh princess, by whom he had a son. Walter, who became lord high steward of Scotland. He assumed the name Walter Steward and was. It Is said, the direct ancestor of the bouse of Stewart. Shakespeare, we know, based "Macbeth" on Holinshed's "History" a good deal of which was borrowed from a circumstantial romance composed by Boece. Mr. Bosweil-Stone, in his "Shakespeare's Holiashed." after balancing the pros and oons, says, "In my opinion, Banquo and Fleance are probably creatures of Boece's imagination.' Work t the Heart. Few stop to consider the amount of labor performed daily by the human heart. The inexhaustible supply of energy displayed by this overworked organ is marvelous. Calculation has shown that the work of the heart of an average person Is equal to the feat of lifting over five tons at the rate of a foot an hour or 125 tons in twentyfour hours. A certain Dr. Richardson once made a curious calculation In regard to the work performed by the heart in mileage. He presumed that the blood was forced out of the heart at each palpitation In the proportion of -nine strokes a minute and at the ssumed distance of nine f eetl At this rate the flow of the blood through the body would be 207 yards a minute, or seven miles an hour. This would make 170 miles a day, or 6L000 miles a year. Thus in a Ufetixae of eighty-four years the blood in the human body would travel over 5,000,000 miles. The number of beats of the heart required to send the blood that far would be over i 8,000.000,600. Fairy Sticks, h t2tsl&. at Kucheabuch. 21 lit
