3, near Kenneth, at 3:05 o'clock Sunday morning. Toben was in charge of Marshal A. J. Harris, of Union City. The train was running at the rate of forty miles an hour.

Tobia had a bottle or whisky, and appeared to be under tne Influence of liquor. Marshal Harris allowed him to leave his seat and go to the front end of the car for a drink of water. After quenching his thirst, Toben opened the car door, rushed out on the platform and jumped from the train. Noting Toben's movements Marshal Harris pulled the bell cord and after the train had stopped got off. After a vain search for Toben Harris walked to the city and reported the case to the police.

AtHairls' request Patrolman Skelton and Deputy Sheriff Obenchaln accompanied him to the point where Toben Is supposed to have made the jump, but failed to find any trace of him.

Two little boys called at the home of Mrs. Mary Stoll, on Thirteenth and Wright streets, a few days ago, and asked her if she had paid her subscription to the Pharos for the month. "Yes," she answered. "Well, it aint marked on the book at the Pharos office," they replied. Mrs.

Stoll told them she had a receipt for the money, and suspecting they were impostors, said that if the Pnaros people wanted collecting done, tbey would send bigger boys out to attend to it. The youngsters then disappeared and secretly got Mrs. Sboll's dog to follow them. They evidently penned the animal up, for several days elapsed before it got back home. An investigation was made, and the identity of the boys partially estaDllshed.
