CITY COUNCIL DISPOSES OF
MUCH MINOR BUSINESS
Tho safe in tho Luy & Koegnti su
loon 111 Jacksonville was tappo
some timo in tho forenoon YVcdnes
day by some artist who was ovident
ly nctninintcd with tho premises and
tho customs of tho place.
Tho safo stands in tho main room
of tho establishment and is easily
accessible.
It is tho custom of Chris Keegnn
who opens up in the morning, to 1111
lock tho safe, so that if any extra
uluuige is necessary it can bo readily
reached. Yesterday morning he uu
locked tho safe, but did not open the
door. In tho afternoon his partner,
Harry Luy, cauio in and opened the
safe. lie found almost at once tlm
the purso in which their change in
gold was kept had vanished. How
and when tho purse disappeared in
still n mystery. Evidently while
ICeegnn was working nbout tho rear
part of. tho saloon during the morn
ing the thief had quietly slipped in
swung back the door of tho safe,
took the purse containing tho gold
and made his way out as quietly as
ho had como in. That tho robhor
knew what ho was after and just
how to get it was ovident, as he could
not havo had moro than a few min
utes to turn tho trick.
Tho loss is between $75 and $100
Some months ago tho City drug
store in Jacksonville vras entered
and the "chango sack," concealed in
its usual place, was taken. Tho Luy
& Keegan robbery looks liko the work
of tho sanie artist.

AT PASS MONDAY
Grand Jury Will Also Convene Annln
Monday and Finish Work In Read-incss-for,
Opening of Court on
Monday, April 18.
GRANTS PASS, Or.. April 7. Tho
ndjourned session of Iho circuit court
will convono next Monday, Judgo P.
M, Cnlklnu presiding. It has been
tho policy of Jmlgo Ca.klnH to hold
court from time to timo during tho
past two inontu In ordor to take up
ninny of tho old cases on tho docket
ps soon as they aro ready and to dl
pose of the equity cases as fast as
tho attorneys are ready. Tho object
ot this is to 11, hton tho regular term
of court so that It will not ho noe
e3sary to keep tho wholo Jury horo
for a week or r ore, and in that way
savo tho coiuty considerable expense
The grand .Jury that sat at tho
January toim of court, it will bo
remembered, adjourned without fin
lshlng their labors and thoy hnv
been recai'cd nud will alt in Bosslon
next Monday. In this way tho cases
that are now ready to como boforo
tho grand Jury can bo heard and re
ported and all ready for tho regular
term of court wh'ch will convono on
the ISth of :hls month, so that what
criminal cases there aro can bo talcon
up at onco bc.'oio tho rogular April
Jury panel, which will bo found pub
ihihed in another part of this issue
This is n good Idea, as heretofore the
potlt Jury Iu.a been hold urduly long
costing tho county a gro.t deal of
nioncy waitln; for tho grand Jury
to return indictments, it not bolng
known whotuor those Indicted would
pload guilty or not. It Is not thought
that tho crand Jury convening
Monday nex. and will lo long In
session, as tho criminal w.ea that
will como boforo It will soon bo i Is
posed of, thoy being cecs that will
not tnko long, aa the defendants nro
now In Jail nud tho wltncaoj agalnut
them ready to testify.
There aro mwiy old law cases on
tho dockot that Is making that book
burdensome, anC It Is hoped that the
methods adopted by Jut! ;c Calkins
will result n cleaning it up to a
considerable extent.
