TOOK THINGS FROM THE NEIGHBORS IN THE SHAPE OF CHICKENS, A COW, A CALF AND ALSO A HORSE.
The case of, Clarence and Willie Shank, who live with their parents on Crosshall street, Fairvjew will be called to the attention of the Juvenile court. These boys have been going about the neighborhood in which they Jive shooting at birds and pigeons with a 22 caliber rifle and several neighbors, in close proximity to whose heads several bullets have whistled made a complaint against them at police headquarters. As the result of a conversation that Superintendent Bailey had with them yesterday morning David Dennis, a clerk iu the establishment of William Waking on Main street was arrested, lie is accused of having given, the boys a box of cartridges, which is a violation of the state law. When the lads were asked where they got- the money to purchase the rifle they became rather confused. but finally said that it was the proceeds of the sale of some chickens. They reluctantly admitted that they had procured the fowls when their owner was not looking, and afterwards paid for them. They made the further admission that only recently they had taken a cow and a calf from the Ratllff dairy and tried to sell them; also that they had led the horse of a neighbor out of the barn for the purpose of disposing of the animal. BROKEN SWITCH POINT Burlington Train Jumps the at Peoria and Kills a Laborer. Tracks Publishers' Press.J Peoria, Iu.. r't b. 8. A broken switch point sent a Chicago, Burlington & Quincy passenger train SO yrds across the local yards and Into the rear end of a string of freight cars laden with grain.

The walls of his magnificent apartments, whose windows look out over the crests of the Pyrenees, are covered with the very delightful tales which Hans Christian Andersen and the Orimrn brothers hv imrruy-taui Women as Weil as Men Are Made Miserable by Kidney and Bladder Trouble. Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, discourages and lessens ambition ; beauty, vigor ana cheertulness soon disappear when the kidneys are out of order or diseased. Kidney trouble has become so prevalent that it is not uncommon for a child to be born afflicted with w eak kidnevs. If the child urinates toooften, if the urine scalds the flesh, or if, when the child reaches ait age when it should be able to control the ass3ge, it is yet afflicted with bed-wet-lin g, depend upon it, the cause of the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first step'should be towards the treatment ot these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a babit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made miserable with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It is sold. by druggists, in fiftycent and one-dollar size bottles. You may have a sample bottle by mail tree, also a Eohm of Swmmp-Booe. pamphlet telling all about Swamp-Root, including many of the thousands of testimonial letters received from sufferers cured.

One trainman wa3 killed and a dozen passengers were injured when the train known as the Champion flyer, on the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad, collided within the city limits with a switch engine drawing a train of empty passenger coaches. The champion flyer runs befween St. Paul and Chicago, and was well filled with passengers, who fought savagely to get out of the cars after the crash. Many of them were cut about the head and face.

In the opening chapter of his "Autobiography," printed iu the first fortnightly number of the North American Review, Mark Twain tells thus of the original Colonel Sellers: Many persons regarded Colonel Sellers as a fiction,' an Invention, an extravagant impossibility, and did me the honor to call him a "creation," but they were mistaken. I merely put hi La on paper as he was. lie was not a person who could be exaggerated. The in cidents which looked most extravagant.

The real Colonel Sellers as I knew him in James Lampton was a patheti and beautiful spirit, a manly man. a straight and honorable man, a man with a big, foolish, unselfish heart In his bosom, a man born to be loved, and he was loved by all his friends nd by bis-family worshiped. It is the right word. To them he was but little less than a god. The real Colonel Sellers was never oa the stage. Only half of him was there. Raymond could not play the other half of him. It was above his level. There was only one man who could have played the whole of Colonel Sellers, and that was Frank Mayo. James Lamptoa Coated all his days In a tinted mist of magnificent dreams and died at last without seeing one of them realized. I saw him last in 1SS4. when It had been twenty-six years since I ate the basin of raw turnips and washed then down with a bucket of water In his house. Ho was become old and white headed, but he entered to me In th? same old breezy way of his earlier life, and he was all there yet not a detail wanting.

Wednesday, Feb. 20 "The Corner Grocery." Thursday, Feb. 21 Virginia Harned. Saturday, Feb. 23 "Pair of Country Lads." PHILLIPS. Entire Week High class vaudeville. "Wonderland" Gennett. "Wonderland," the latest New York spectacular success to be launched by Julian Mitchell, will be seen at the Gennett tonight. "Wonderland" is said to be a companion show to "The Wizard of Oz," and "Babes in Toyland," and ike tb.se two popular pieces', it is a succession of scenic surprises, beautiful transformations, gorgeous costume effects, and has received the same lavish mounting that Mitchell can always be depended upon to supply. The book was contributed by Glen MacDonough, who was a co-author with Victor Herbert and Julian Mitchell in the construction of "Babes in Toyland," and is said to be particularly sparkling in lyrics and dialogue. Herbert's music is described as being the best he has done since the "Serenade," in the way of light opera. The company is an unusually strong one, headed by those two popular favorites, Little Chip and Mary Marble. Manager Joseph M. Gaites has also assembled a chorus that has already established for ItsDlf a reputation, for vim, ginger and good looks, that will be hard to equal by those who follow "Wonderland." The same superb production, scenic, mechanical and electrical effects that contributed so largely to the great success of the piece through its New York run, will be seen here. Vaudeville at the Phillips. Although one might think the supply of vaudeville performers might by this time be pretty well exhausted, such does not appear to be the STOCK COMPANY.
next and the pictures and illustrated songs there will be a very clever 'comedy sketch, by Mark and Laura Davis, a grotesque acrobat and dancing act, by Floyd Mack, a novelty singing and talking act by Roscoe and Sims, and as the feature or head line act the American Newsboy Quartet, including Falkner Bros., and Delaney and Holden. Advance reports indicate this vaudeville bill to be superior to any yet presented to Phillips patrons this season and should draw well all the week. There will be the usual double performance this evening. Blanche Walsh Gennett. Blanche Walsh will be seen at the Gennett on Monday, Feb. 18 in Clyde Fitch's newest play, "The Straight Road." According to the critics, Miss Walsh has strengthened her position in the front rank of America's emotional actresses by her remarkable work in this play. It is a simple story of New York life, but in the hands of Miss Walsh it became a tragic episode that thrilled New York theatre goers during its long run. Virginia Harned Gennett. Of all the Camilles upon the modern stage not one has received such glowing notices as Virginia Harned, who is now touring the country with a specially selected cast an 3 presenting this play alone as her masterpiece of emotional acting. She is credited with giving Camille a spiritual sympathy and appeal which lifts the character out of its customary old timo presentation as the love romance of a mere courtesan. Miss Harneds celebrated portrayal of the role will bo seen here at the Gennett on Thursday night, Feb. 21. Repertoire at the Gennett. There are several excellent plays in the repertoire of "The Americans", that popular stock company to be seen at the Gennett all next week, but none has excited more notice or received more praise than "The Voice of Nature", which will likely be presented on Wednesday night. The story concerns Nihilism In Russia and while full of dramatic strength, is also alive with mirth provoking comedy. The plot is laid among students in Russia and the efforts of the Hebrew race to throw off the hated yoke of the Czar. Great opportunity Is given for scenic display and the setting of the third act, representing the grand foyer and staircase of the Royal opera house at St. Petersburg is said to surpass anything seen in popular priced attractions in the state. No play of the repertoire suits the company better; in fact, the members of the company were selected principally for the parts in this play. "The Man-o-Wars-Man" will be the bill on Monday night. This is a great naval play and has been a great success in all the large cities and is used by this company alone at popular prices. "An Unwritten Law," a western play, full of comedy and thrills will be the bill on Tuesday evening. GET CHEAP STREET LIGHT Electric Lamps Cost Columbus Only $31.03 a Year Each Owns Its Light Plant. Columbus, Ind., Feb. 8, (Spl.) The annual statistical report of City Clerk L. F. Orr shows that during 1906 the city of Columbus paid only $31.03 each for its street lamps. The city owns its own water-works and electric light plant, and there are 137 street lamps in the city. The clerk figured that the cost of maintaining each for the year was the small amount mentioned above. This is the cheapest light the city ever had, for the cost of each lamp used to be estimated at 5167. Bean ti Sig'&atcrs cf The Krnd Yoa Km fcavs Bcsf Use artificial gas tor iignt and heat -. jo tf

SACRIFICES THEIR HONOR Japs Say Treaty Restricting Immigra tion of Laborers Is One Sided Affair. tPublishers' Press.j . o. while ignoring the anti-Japanese feeling In a portion of the United States press, the Japanese public Is almost unanimous in demanding that the solution of the San Francisco school question must not Involve the labor question. A mutual treaty restricting the Immigration of laborers is condemned here as a one-sided concession, sacrificing Japan's honor without any recompense whatever. It is felt that even with the United States nothing derogatory to national honor, however slight, must be admitted in the diplomatic relations of both nations. Ohio Postmaster. Washington, Feb. 8.
