They found that Hall and Rachwltz had been sell ing It In various purls ot the city , and on watching tlic- movements ot the two they found the property was hidden under the roof of a straw shed on Ben Mnrkti' place , near Manawa. Marshal Canning , Dep uty Mnr.ilml Fowler , James Anderson nnd Officer Murphy went to the place Monday night and nwatted developments. About 10 o'clock , after they had bo n waitIng - Ing about ten minutes , they heard n wngon approaching. Murphy did not have tlmu to hide , nnd lay down on the grass a little way off. It proved to bo Hall and Rnchwltz In the wagon , and they had their mixplclonH arousal by tlio bight of the long , black ob ject on the ground , which they found In a few seconds was Murphy. Before they could Investigate they found themselves sur rounded bv the other officers. Hall made n move towarl his r-o kt for a r.\olver which ho had concealed there , but on being told that ho would be riddled with bullets If he made any opposition , he held up his hands while the officers wcn't through the pock.Is of the tv.'o men nnd took n revolver from each one , londcd for bear. Under the shed roof were found six cad dies of plug tobacco nnd two barrels of brandy. How much was there originally Is not known positively. The ofllcers had In tended not to capture the men until they had the stolen goods In their actual posses sion , but Hall and Rachwlfz prevented that part of the plan from being carried out In coming sooner than they \\cro looked for. It IR thought , however , tint there is evidence enough to convict them of burglary already , and unless the officers are mistaken the chances of the two culprits for a trip across the state .are good. It Is said that there ore several others Implicated In the same affair. Rachwitz and Hall will ImVo a hearing Fri day. A Week for I.lttto Ones. It seems to be a general complaint by ladles Interested in children's and Infants' wear that merchants don't seem to pay much attention to that class of merchandise. The above remark to some extent Is true , but the Boston store will be classed In a different light this week , as their show window on this class of goods will convince you that such Is the case. No one Interested In this line can afford to miss seeing window display , and most of all the extremely low prices. This sale of Infants' and children's wear Is special for this week only , and will be one of the most Interesting features of our Syndicate May Sale.

Stone 1ms been In vestigating Judge Jenkins' null-strike Injunc tion * , 1ms prepared a bill designed to reform the practice by which federal courts arc pras- tlcolly engaging In the railroad business through the upiiolntmcnt of receivers. Most of the subsidy rends of the west nro In the hands of receivers appointed by the under courts. The ( courts thus secure absolute authority over railroads and , as the receiver ships run from year to year , the courts tuc- ceeii the railroad officials In conducting the business of the road. Mr. Terry's bill \\lll attempt to put a limit to the railroad rcculvershlps In order to avoid the charge that the courts are going Into the railroad business. It Is complained that not only Is the time of the federal courts consumed and their functions diverted by this practice , but many Incidental abuses have sprung up. One of these Is the practice of cutting oft all current debts for supplies , repairs , labor , etc. , In oredr that the ic- ccivers may pay all the Income of the toad to the first mortgage bondholders. The lat ter usually apply for the appointment of re ceivers and when the latter are appointed they cut off all debts save thoau to the bond holders. Judge Caldwell of the United States circuit bench has recognized this abuse , and In appointing a receiver for a railroad attached the condition that the 10- cclver should pay debts due from the rail road for work , labor , materials , machinery , fixtures and supplies of every kind. Including damages to persons or property which ac crued after the exccutlrn. of the mortgage under which the receiver was appointed. Mr. Terry's bill will seek to Incorporate Judge Caldwell's ruling Into permanent statute law. Patent * Kxplrril l y Limitation. WASHINGTON , May 8.

'The collapse of the bi metallic movement In the House , of Com mons on Friday , whpn Mr. Samuel Smith's motion that the government endeavor to secure n stable par o ( exchange for gold and silver by International agreement was counted out without Ulsctisslon , following so closely upon the bimetallic conference , has caused much comment. The secretary of the bimetallic league explains the apathy of the House of. Commons toward the bimetallic movement by saying' It was due to the fact that Mr. Smith's motion had only second place at the evening sitting and the rules of the house prevented a division , as It was con sidered that the attendance was so small as to servo no practical purpose , especially as a full day's discussion'.wgujd bo secured later ' ' when a division could'o'cc'ur.

LEO XIII AND THE UiXriV.ER3ITYi I'athcr Khehaii'A Ireturn at Kxpo-ttlon Hall I.n < t Mght. Last night at Exposition hall Hon. C. J. Smyth Introduced Ucv. Father Shehnn to an audience that comfortably filled tljo hastily decorated hall , Father Shehnii was to Icc- turo on "Leo XIII. and the Catholic Uni versity of America. " At thu outset the speaker recounted In n synoptical way the works ot learning and llghtcmncnt anI that , though , culled directly sects of education encouraged by the present pope , anil went over hurriedly , because of Its vastncss , the extent of the Influence of the Vatican on the Information , civil and political , of the world. "The Vatican archives , " he said , "are the richest nnd most Important In the world. They are a splendid tangible proof that the papacy Is the con stant friend of letters , progress nnd on to the spiritual government of the Christian church , It can never , cut Itself loose from the highest natural aspirations of mankind , which are the ! ladders by which humanity most frequently roaches the noble , super natural plane of religion. The archives , tilled with thousands of priceless manuscripts , neoj a largo IJbrary of printed books for the pur poses cf reference and verification. There has always been on hand a valuable coll-cilon , but within the lust two years Leo XIII. has provided for the national enlargement of the library , for the more favorable location of the books and the requirement ot nil useful modern literature In-n word , for the greater com fort of that literary cosmopolls which Is one of the strongest products nnd most charming sides of the Eternal City. " The general Influence of religion on educa tion was dilated on nt homo length. In words glowing with the fervor of deep con viction the speaker pirtrayed the benefits that have come to the race through the re ligion of the meek and lowly Nazarene. Ho pictured the church ns the medium through which the Almighty spoke Ills will and made known His goodness. To the mind of man , In Its Intlnltiute of ramifications , a trib ute of eloquence was poured out. and the en franchisement of this mind through the me dium of education , the handmaiden of relig ion , was appropriately brought forward. Hastily but clearly bringing out the salient points , the speaker went over the history of the world from the time the apostles , blessed by Pentecostal fire , went forth to preach Christ and Him crucified unto all the world , showing how education developed and civil ization brightened as religion became more general. Along this line the Influence ! of Homo on letters was shown to bo most be nign. Coming down to the establishment of the university at Washington , he said : "The Catholic university has a long list of beneficent acts for which It will ever be grateful to Pope Leo. He Is truly Its founder. Ills letter of April 10 , 1887 , to Cardinal Gibbons urged the undertaking ot this great work and bade the American bishops not to lose heart in the presence of difficulties. It encouraged them to bpnre no efforts In establishing a great school of sacred and profane sciences , Irr order that the American church might have a refined and learned clergy , and the American state obtain an Increase ot devoted and patriotic cltizns. "Ills letter to the American Episcopate. Mngnl Nobls Gaudll , ' ot March 7 , 1889 , called the university Into existence , and entrusted to It the mission and the powers which his predecessors gave to Bologna , Paris , Oxford , Cologne nnd other great cen ters of learning since the twelfth century. In it ho declared that the work was blessed by him ; that It was undertaken for the glory and prosperity of the Catholic church lu America , and ho exhorted the faithful to exhibit a generous support to an Institu tion destined to reflect honor on the United States and to be a stronghold of genuine Catholic faith and piety. "Since then LeoIII. . has been an affectionate patron of the Infant university. Ho sent his beloved and intimate friend to represent him at the opening In Novem ber , 1889. He bestowed upon the university a valuable life-sized portrait of himself. Ho Inquires with paternal solicitude con cerning Its progress , nnd on suitable occa sions expresses his satisfaction with Us rapid growth and Its management. "Universities , llko states and Institutions count their lives by centuries , yet though scarcely five years In existence , the Catholic university my claim to have thriven In the shadow of Leo's will. Its administrators and friends , professors , feel grateful to the great pontiff for his unslmkcablo con fidence , and Its students , already scattered all over the union , Join with them In wishIng - Ing him many years of life and health. In which to consolidate and propagate his prudent policy of peace , unity and sincere , efficacious ' reconciliation , with the church of all the best and purest sympathies of them odern world. We are emerging upon the twentieth century , that la upon one If those great periods of transition and change , which mark the slow but steady progress of humanity up the painful slope ot existence. It Is also the end of one of those great cosmic cycles of a thousand years , and the opening of a new era , whose character Is yet unclear and Indefinite to us , whoso ener gies and alms wo may liopo to control , but must bo content to leave them In. the hands of that shaping Providence which doeth all things well. However , In human things there liavo been but two sudden and ab solute changes , the fall of Adam , and the establishment of the Catholic religion. Outside of these great events In the history of our race every century transmits to Ita successor a fund of experience and character , of Ideals and sym pathies , which go far towards forming the mental physiognomy of the new heir.

Mr. William Henry Smith , formerly mana ger of the Associated press , Is In the prlmo of life , ami possesses n mind clear as to the requirements of the public. Mr. Smith has always been an arduous worker , nnd It Is by no means surprising that his health should , In the past , have Ktiffertd more or less there by. The mental strain necessary to the per formance of his ditties caused difficulties ot digestion which are not easily overcome , and also a iircmlc colic , both painful and exhaust ing. All attempts to overcome these ten dencies by foico of will power fulled , and ha consulted eminent physicians , among them Dr. llarthol of Philadelphia. In spite , how ever , ot the caio and skill ot those practi tioners , ho grew worse constantly. The re sult can best bo described Iti his own words. He said : "My brother , C. W. Smith , manager of the Chesapeake & Ohio railroad , came to visit mo and , seeing my condition , took upon himself to conduct my case , and so secured a prepa ration which , 1 have since learned , ho hail used successfully himself and In his family. I began Its us > o , and commcnc.d Improving nt once. This Improvement continued , until now I am well , and wholly through the In fluence cf Warner's Safe Cure. I have slnco then usd the remedy with good results lu my family , and keep It on hand constantly. I consider It a remarkable medicine. " Mr. George Alfred Townsend , the famoni ! newspaper correspondent , whoa ; letters , writ ten over the nom do plume of "Oath , " liavo attracted such wide attention , said to the writer : "While In England I had n pleasant visit with ex-Governor S. II. I'ackard , our consul at I < i\orpool. We wcro remarking on the death of n number of distinguished Americans , when the governor said : 'Town- Bcnd , I can't see why so many of our public men are passing away , victims of cno dread scourge. There Is no need of their dying 1C they will consent to avail themselves of what has been provided for them , as I have. ' Governor I'ackard went on to describe his ex perience , and I found hla symptoms corre sponded almost exactly to my own. I soon afterward returned to America , began the same treatment , nnd when I had taken a number of bottles of Warner's Safe Cure the remedy Governor Packard used and com mended to me so strongly I , too , was rid of backache , bad fluids , tired feelings , ncrvoua prostration , Irregular appetite , 'thick head , ' and today nm as bound as a nut. It Indi cated my disorder and removed It entirely. I regard It us a godsend to this country , where Hrlght's disease and all other kidney ; disorders are so prevalent. " The above statements arc not from obscura sources , but from gentlemen In the most exalted stations of trust and responsibility , and the affirmations they make nro the re sults of actual observation. Does It not stand to reason , therefore , that the articla of which they speak Is n most valuable one , and such as may bo used with great benefit by all who are suffering ?
