There are three principal claimants for the ,money, (ihief of Police Fred Mitchell' of Newton, who bases his claim on the fact that he furnished the eviden- ce on which Tucker was arrested; (lliiof of Police McAuliffe of Weston, who found the Canadian pin which; was one of the strong points in thel government’s case against Tucker,l and Earl Woodward of Auburndale,l who foulld the sheath of Tucker’s' hunting knife, which also played ai prominent part in the conviction of the murderer.

BOYS NEW YORK, March 27--A trio of -masked men, armed, invaded the fin-_ ancial district late today, lined 11 messenger boys against the wall in the dressing room of the Western Un- ion Telegraph Company's office in Wall street, and took from them their week's wages. An operator who rushed in to learn the cause of the commotion was marched to the head of the line and searched too. One boy stuffed a $5 bill in his mouth to avoid giving it np. An- other let fall a $5 gold piece and covered it with his foot. Several tucked the bills down their necks. The trio backed out after warning the boys that an outcry would mean death, but one of their number rush- ed immediately to a telegraph key and notified the main office. Detec- tives reached the scene of the hold- up within a few minutes, but found no clue to the highwaymcn. This was the last of three holdups in broad daylight today. A widow was beaten and robbed on the street, still held back- 'and a man robbed of his watch in a THE PREMIER said there _were times when these matters attracted more attention than at others. The Province is entitled to have the ap- pointment miide. No doubt the Gov- ernment would make it when they could. There were other important matters to occupy the Government just now. We should not attempt to dictate. The federal Government had the right of appointment, and had always acted at their discretion. He thought the resolution uncalled for, that no terrible wrong was done to the Province or that an immediate appointment would be a matter of great consequence. The Senate had never done much for the Province. He was willing to have representa- tions madc to our representatives but not to apply to the Governor General. He believed the House and the country had confidence in the Government at Ottawa to do what was right. (cheers) MR. MATHIESON had hoped the Premier was speaking only for him- self. He was sorry to find that some shared the Premicr's views. The Sen- ate was created as a safeguard, and ollr representation in that body should not be denied. The Senate might any day decide a question of the utmost importance, as they had done in killing the Yukon Railway bill. The Premier had shown a laud- able interest in maintaining our re- presentation in the Commons. Why so careless when our representation """(C5nti'ii`i`i§d ion ` 'p§ge`3.)"""

The editor is 8, bachelor, and from time to time hides away a. trifle of his weekly stipend to pay his hotel bill. Some of his barbed wire senti- ments relative to the incident are: "Now to steal at all is a crime, but to steal from an 'editor is t-he height of human degeneracy. To bold up a banker or plumber or some other form of plutocrat is exeusable under certain circumstances. "The person who will deliberately attempt to separate an editor from real money is a brute, with a soul no larger than could bc incased in in the appendix of nn especially dim- inutive mosquito. “A little lying and slander we can stand, but even if the smallest sum of money is stolen from us we are broke." 500 WILD HORSES SOON TO BE SOAP SAN BERNARDINO, Cal., March 27-Within B, few months 500 head of wild horses on the San Bernardo de- sert Will have been transformed into cakes of soap and he in use in the homes of New York and Chicago.

Robert Rogers, Minister of Public Works for Mani-_ tobu, are both to enter Federal poll- tics. Mr. McBride has promised to cou- test a constituency in the next gen-` eral election. ' Mr. Rogers will not wait for the election. He is coming to Ottawa as a confidential extra adviser of Mr, Borden and the Opposition member/s generally. There is a difference in the explana- tions for this advent. One is that Mr. Borden feels that his present lieutenants are not up to victory-winning qualifications and in- sisted that he should have more ef- fective aids. The other explanation is that an invitation to Messrs. Rogers and Mc- Bride was the price which Mr. Bor- den had to pay the critics in his party to retain the Opposition lead- ership.
