When Mrs. Trommald returned home
sh found the contents of ths different

Every part of the house had been ran
sacked. Investigation showed, that the
girl had taken one of her employer's
trunks and filled it to overflowing with
stolen property. Bhe took every one of
Mrs. Trom maid's dresses, two pairs of
new shoes, a gold-handled umbrella,

Two of ths Best Bltss.
Two of ths bsst sltss according to
members of ths committee were those
offered in Sullivan's gulch and which
Councilman Bennett objected to because
they were in hla ward. Either of these
sites could havs bsen secured some
months ago for less than 110.000. Ths
nresent site is worth over 126.000. How

it wnicn would make unnecessary tns
building of ths ersmatery In ths city
limits. He wants ths city to adopt the
airtight stsei garbaas car system in
transporting ths city's refuse that is
in vogue in every city or pretensions in

lish three or four central stations on

Several years-ago an -English firm
offered to construct a 60-ton crematory

seems to bs considerable dissatisfaction

In this city for ths past six wseks. So

complaint comes from the closing of
ths clgsr and confectionery stores, and
In fact any other business with ths
exception of saloons. Despite this fact
ths law remains on ths statute books
and It Includes all places of business
now closed on Sunday. The matter
promises to create a small-slsed earth
quake before It is finally ssttlsd. Two
factions ara lined ud against each other
and both are ready to fight to the last
Ons faction says closs ths saloons and
let ths other places remain open. Ths
other side says dose them; all up fit
let the saloona remain open.
Ths faction that advocates a seml-Iid
Is first to make a public move by cir
culating , a petition asking the authori
ties to allow the cigar and confectionery
stores to remain open on Sundays on
the grounds that the pressnt condition

of the city. J ' '
