Two youthful fishermen were seated on the wall about a factory inclosur; in Williams burg when their patient manipulation of fishing tackle attracted the atten tion of Patrollman Meyers. The police man never had heard of . successful fishing in the factory yard, in which several inches of dust proved the ut ter absence of water. "Look! Ain't this a whopper?" he heard one of the two men say. sure, but look what I landed! was the reply. 'lhe patrolman peered over the wall and found, he says, that the fisher men were using poles baited with min iature grappling hooks to remove sheet lead, hundreds of pounds of which had been stolen from the in- closure, owned by the Franklin H. Kalbiuisch Chemical Works, at White and Cook streets. Meyers grasped the legs of the two fishermen, but one escaped, leaving! 4f him in possession of a prisoner who . gave the name of Herman Simpson, y In Bedford-avenue Police Court he was reluctant to talk of the case. : The Forum Is Fostered. uiaite wiue me uoorway oi ine scnooi Around whose sill the millions wait, I he cradle or the common rule.

VILLA ALIVE, SCOUT SAYS. Bandit leader Said To Be at Head of 1200 Men in Rurango. FA Paso, Tex., July 5. Francisco Villa with 1200 followers is in the state of Durango near the Zacatecas border, according to a report made to General Bell by a scout who reached the border today after a month's in dividual pursuit of the bandit chief tain. The scout, who formerly was one of Villa a officers, undertook the quest in the hope of obtaining the re wards offered for Villa's capture. His report, however, conflicted with pre vious reports that Villa is at Boquil las, 70 miles west of Chihuahua City. The scout said he once was within 20 miles of tho outlaw's camp. " When he reached there he was suffering from wounds inflicted in the city of Zacatecas by Mexicans he recognized as having formerly been in Villa's army. He escaped then, he said, through the aid of friendly natives. The scout's report supported rumors current here that Villa was in Jaurez a week ago yesterday. He said that Mexicans in Chihuahua City told them that this was true. The scout added that he had discovered numerous evidence that the break be tween the Villastas and the Carranz istas is rapidly being healed. Wolgast Fouls Freddie Welsh Denver, July ' 4.

Hard infighting marked the entire contest. Wrestled Five Hours. No Fall. Omaha, July 4.
