Gcorgo E. Smith and Charles Jackson nro
under arrest at tlio police station on a charge.
of proud larceny In stealing eight barrels at
sugar valued at $ li. ! > from a box car on the
U. ft M. sidetrack at Fourth and Jones
streets.
Tlio naino Jackson is an alias given to con
ceal the identity of ono of the prisoners ,
whoso real nanio Is T. V. Jnrdlne. Jardino
is a brother of Walter Jardlne , the proprietor
Of the Merchants Express company , and is
well connected In this city.
The thieving has been going on for some
time , and as far as known nineteen barrels of
sugar have been stolen during the past two
weeks. The robbery charged in tlio com
plaint under which the men wcro arrested
was committed on the night of February 'JO.
and was reported to the police on Wednes-
day.
' Smith was lit jail for drunkenness at the
time the matter was reported , and Detective
Savage , who is familiar with his j odlircere-
markoil at the tinio that it was dollars to
doughnuts that ho had a hand in
the sugar racket. Thursday the
detectives found two barrels of
the stolen sugar In a grocery
at Twentieth and Leaven worth streets ,
and Detective Savage asked for u descrip
tion of the mail who had sold them the
sugar. The proprietor said that the man
had Just left the store , and going to the door
pointed out Smith who had observed the ap-
approarh of the ortlcers and was getting out
of their vicinity as iiuickly as possible.
SiiMpoctcd Thlovcs.
About ( i o'clock Savage and Dempsey
found Smith on North Sixteenth street and
placed him under arrest. Ho denied every
thing , but when lie was searched a letter
was found on his person describing the
location of the car containing the sucar on the
sidetrack and containing minute directions
how to back the wagon in and got away with
the swag without discovery. The letter was
signed "T. V. .1. " Smith refused to disclose
the name of hu correspondent , but the letter
with some other information that tlio officers
had obtained satislicd them that tlio initials
stood for Thomas Flint .Tardino and n war
rant was issued for .Inrdlnc's arrest.
Jardino was arrested by Detectives Haze
and Savage yesterday and locked up un
der the assumed name. His family were deter
mined that his real name should not bo
known , but the facts leaked out. Ho had
nothing to say about his arrest , but the
police think that they Imyo a sure case
against both men. Jardino in employed by
the Merchants Express company to look
after its property on thn sidetracks , and
was consequently in a position to furnish his
confederate with all desired information in
regard to the location of the stuff to bo
stolen.
Smith is an alleged thief and has been
tried for grand larceny twlco in the district
court , but the evidence failed to convict. Ho
took two sacks of sugar from McCord , Urady
& Co. when ho was employed by them as a
driver some time ago. Lately ho has worked
in Synder's feed store near Fifteenth and
Hurt streets.
Tlio detectives have also succeeded in
locating the expressman who carted away
the sugar in the person of C5us Kellner , who
lives near the Willow Springs distillery.
Itccovcriiif ; tlio I'luiulor.
Eleven barrels of the stolen sugar have
been found and the police think they know
where the rest is located. Seven barrels
wore sold to the Cash grocery at Eleventh
street and Capitol avenue and tlio proprietors
identify Smith as the salesman. Ho was
paid in checks and the linn still have the
stubs with his name on them. Mike Lcary ,
a saloon keeper at Sixteenth and Hurt
streets , also invested in a barrel , and a
grocery on North Sixteenth street has n
couple of barrels in stock. A warrant will
bo issued for Leary's arrest for receiving
stolen property.

Edward II. Darling is the name given by.a
young man who was captured after a hard
chase yesterday and lodged in Jail. ' 'And ho
is u darling , " said Detective Savage as ho
sized up the nervy young man. The prisoner
was caught while in the act. of going through
the residence of C. W. Mount , 213 Poppleton
avenue.
Mrs. Mount was calling en a neighbor
across the street and saw a man go to her
front door and ring the bell. As no one
answered he walked around to the rear door.
Mrs. Mount crossed to her homo and found
the rear door open. She went in
and saw Darling busily engaged
looking over trinkets on nor
dressing case. She madu a noise and the
thief hastily escaped with Mrs. Mount in
pursuit. Others took up the chase , includ
ing Officers Dniuimy and Baldwin , and
after a long run they captured the crook out
beyond Hanscom park.
At the Jail the prisoner was searched and
six long button hooks and a pair of nippers
found. The button hooks wcro used to pick
locks and the nippers to twist the hooks into
proper shape.
Detective Savage found that Darling had
stomjcd at the Windsor hotel tlio night be
fore and had registered as U. A. Timelier ,
Topoka. The young man felt rather crest
fallen and refused to talk. Ho will bo
charged with burglary.

BURLINGTON'S PLANS.
Surveyed to the Yellowstone I'nrk llooinrra'
Humor * Deulrd.
General Mamgcr Holdrogo of the Ilur-
llngton , when shown the telegram In Tin : HUB
announcing that work would begin on the
extension ofliis road from tlio present ter
minus of Its grade at the eastern Idaho line
to Portland within three month ; ; , said thcro
was not a word of truth In the rumor , which
seemed to bo prompted for speculative pur
poses purely.
"Not a survey has been made beyond the
Yellowstone park , " said Mr. Holdrcge , "and
wo would hardly announce the building of a
line before n survey is made. Some ono lias
circulated the story for the purpose of'
booming real estate in that country , and
seeing the power of a railroad to develop the
country , thcso people have taken advantage
of that fact and have coupled the IJurllng-
lou with an extension toward San Fran
cisco. "
"What are the prospects for the Hiirllng-
ton building any extension In Nebraska this
year J" was asked the trcneral manager.
"Under existing circumstances they are
not very roseate , with the Nebraska legisla
ture talking about ralucim ; rates SMi per
cent. Things are too unsettled to tell what
will be done , for all will depend upon what
tlio legislators do at Lincoln. "
Speaking of the recent demand made by
.lie engineers on the "O" for the saino sys-
; em of computing overtime as accorded to
: ho trainmen , Mr. Holdrogo s'lld : "The ( pics-
.ion was before the management of the road
: i month previous to the engineers' formal
Iciuand for a change , and rules had been
mule governing ttio change. Conductors
ind trainmen are asked to compute overtime
mo way while the engineers are governed
> y a different rule. It'has been the aim of
Iho Uurlington to make the compensation
: lie same , and the matter hud been definitely
locidcd upon when the demand from the en
gineers was received. The demand docs
not increase the wages at all , but puts engi
neers and trainmen upon tlie same basis as
, o when overtime will commence.

ItullroadH HrliiKhiK .Many HllnoU Farmer. )
to NuliniHkii.
The exodus of farmers from central Illi
nois to Nebraska and the west is u fruitful
subject for the political economist , and
iround railroad olllccs the reasons for the
exodus are largely discussed. A railroa'd
nan , in speaking of the change of the farm
ers from a well settled state to Nebraska ,
said that lie presumed the Itinerant farmer
was probably in the majority , as landlords
liad raised rents in the last few years.
"Only a few years ago , " said he , "a renter
thought ho could hardly exist when he had
to give one-third of his grain as rent , but
now the rent is two-llfths , and in some cases
one-half. The cash rent then was $ tt per
acre ; today it is SO. . So these wideawake
heads of families como west , buy a small
piece of land , pay part down and trust to the
fertility of the soil for the remainder duo on
their property.
"Public opinion , will assign many reasons
for the movcmcnfto our own state , but ono
will seem to bet particularly conclusive , and
that is the rapid rises to high value of lands
on which the occupants in former
years toiled hard for meager profits
has brc/l a dusivo to soil and use the moi ey
in land speculations. The competition among
renters makes even the linn ones uneasy for
fear they may bo.supplantcd by others with
superior recommendations or willingness to
offer more money ; hence where renters have
a bank account over their cost of living
they constitute a good part of the exodus ,
and there are a number of them among the
homo seekers. Another cause , quite evi
dent among the emigrants Is the dcsiro to
provide homes for the children rapidly grow
ing to manhood and womanhood. "
It is understood that this is Just the be
ginning of a larger exodus fruii central
Illinois , as hundreds are waiting to hear the
result of the experiment before they them
selves make the change.

"Between the ages of flvo and fifteen ,
I wan troubled with a kind of salt-
rheum , or eruption , chiully confined to
the legs , nnd especially to the bend of
the knco above the calf. Huri1 , running
sores formed which would scab over ,
hut would break immediately on mov
ing the leg. My mother tried every
thing she could think of , but nil was
without avail. Although a child , I read
in the papers about the bpnefidnl effects
of Ayer's I'illa , and persunded my moth
er to let mo try them. With no great
faith in the result , she procured
nnd I began to use them , and soon
noticed an improvement. Encouraged
by this , I kept on till I took .two boxes ,
when the sores disappeared and have
never troubled me since. " II. Chiptnan ,

Is a thing that a man really .knows as little about as
any one thing that he buys-he very often trusts a
hatter-tmore readily if the hatter trusts him. Some
times he gets fooled. A sreat many hats are sold
today by the name on the lining-more than by the
quality of the hat-men can read the name-but the
quality-well , that's guess work. Take Derby hats
sold today for five dollars-didn't
you get just as
good a hat made by that same hatter for five dollars
ten years ago ? You bat you did. Do you have to
pay as much for a suit of clothes or a pair of shoes
as you did ten years ago ? Not by a democratic ma
jority you don't. Do you have to pay as much for
hats ? Not if you use the same common sense that
you do about other things. We'll sell you as good a
hat in every particular for tluee dollars as you can
buy for four or five dollars anywhere , and you can
have any'.shape.soft ' or stiff. We'll sell you a derby
hat
in any of five slmpea , tliat any hatter wonld
aslt yon a dollar and a half for. "We'll sell you
"The Kobraslia Special" hat , for a dollar fifty ,
and you'll save exactly the price of it. Wo open
oxir new spi'ing hats today. You don't have to
buy a hat that you look like a guy into be in
line There are a dozen new shapes -besides
the old standbys , and you can have alj the
