and tho, city engineer.
Joo Smith, one of tho Inspectors placed on
the work hy City Engineer lltnyre, was
taken off nnd tho task of Inspecting the brick
left to Inspector Mahlon Drown. This was

ference of opinion between the two In.prctora
as to what constituted good paving brick.
Once the trouble was settled work pro
reeded rapidly and by last evening n largo
section of the street was laid with two
courses of brick. Mayor Jennings nnd sev
crol members of the city council who In
spected tho paving last evening expressed
themselves ns perfectly satisfied with the
quality of brick being laid.
Work will ho commenced ns soon ns the
material arrives on tho paving of Ilroadwny
between Indian creek bridge nt Thirteenth
street nnd the Northwestern tracks. This
will ho lnld with finlesburg block on con
crete base. The curbing Is now being set
preparatory to the paving.
As soon as the paving of North Main
street Is completed Contractor Wlckham will
commenco work on Washington avenue
which Is to be paved with Dcs Moines hrlclt
for top course nnd Council Muffs hrlck for
bottom course. The old block paving on
this street has been taken up to make room
for tho now paving. Work will also be
commenced In a few days on tho paving of

ROBBERS MARE GOOD HAUL
Des Moines Store Loses Two Thousnnd
Dollars Worth of Silks.
WORK PROBABLY DONE BY PROFESSIONALS
Two Shelves Were Stripped of Their
Contents nnil Hour So Smoothly
iiint It Tnltm Hours to Kind
Where Thieves lliitcrril.
DES MOINES, Sept. 1. (Special Tele
gram.) Two thousand dollars' worth of
silks were stolen from the Fair store In East
Des Moines. The robbers left no cluo by
which they may be followed. The work was
evidently that of experts.' for all cheaper
grades of silk wero thrown away. This con
stitutes tho climax to an extraordinary bad
criminal record even for fair week. The
robbery was not discovered until the store
was opened for business this morning. Even
then the store had not been disordered In
any way nnd it was not until the curtains
which aro used to protect the silk shelves
wero removed that tho loss was apparent.
Two shelves which had been loaded with
valunblc silks had been stripped of their
contents.
Not until tho cntlro storo hnd been gone
over hy detectives several times was tho
place nnd method of entering the building
tevealed. It was found that the window
opening oft the alley on the north had been
pried open and that It had unquestionably
served as tho opening through which the
silk had passed. It Is considered probable
that the Job was done, by a, gs-ng which has
mndo a specialty of silk robberies in Iowa
for sevornl months. The robbery of Lederer
A- Strnuss In this city Inst winter was fol
lowed shortly by similar robberies In Daven
port. Clinton nnd Cedar Rapids, In each of
which cases no clue a to the robbers ever
developed. In Cedar Rapids the loss
amounted to $3,000 and a big reward was
offered.
Sell Liquor to ludlnns.
Michael Murphy, bartender for E. H.
Roche & Co., and Aug Waschkowsky, bar
tender for S. Neuderman, wero arrested to
day by the federal authorities nnd pleaded
guilty to selling lntoxlcnnts to John E.
Seepo, Charley Kee-Vou-Sah-Tah-Hah nnd
Young Hear, Indians of the Tama reserva
tion, who visited the state fnlr and got
gloriously drunk. Tho three Indians ap
peared beforo United States Commissioner
Mnson Bright nnd early this morning tiled
information against tho two barkeepers, un
der tho names of John Doe. as the com
plainants were too drunk yesterday to learn
anybody's name. They knew where they
had got tho liquor and it did not take the
federal authorities long to And the bar
tenders, who did not deny their sales, nnd
when nrralgned before tho commissioner
promptly pleaded guilty to the charge. Sell
ing Intoxicants to Indians Is a serious
offenso under tho federal statutes and both
aro liable to a minimum penalty of two
years In tho pen and a fine of $300.
Judge Prouty rendered nn Important de
cision todny, holding that the collateral In
heritance tax as amended by the Twenty.
seventh general assembly Is valid and that
it constitutes a lien upon real property, ns
well as upon personal property. Under the
ruling today tho court holds that tho es
tate of tho Into John M. Day must pay into
tho state treasury the sum of $1,147.11 ns
collateral tax, and Judge Prouty plainly In
terprets the law ns to all future notions
holding tho act valid and that the tax Is a
prior Hen upon both real nnd personal prop
erty. Tho court reviews tho facts at length
and goes Into several supremo court decis
ions and incidentally reverses tho rulings
of a member of the supreme court and of
tho two distinguished Judges of state courts.
