He has closed hundreds of pool halls, clgar stores, barber shops, and other small bus- inesses on the Sabbath, and the County Grand Jury, as a result of his action, continues weekly to {n- dict theatrical persons who violate the law. Judge Wallace’s platform contains these characteristic statements: “The preservation of the Sabbath is one of the greatest moral problems of the Republic.

And this rest is an inalienable right which no one should ever permit to be wrested from him. “The Sunday theater {s as demor- alizing as Sunday saloon, and should be suppressed.

It seems evident—or at least it ts the prevailing opinion—that the rob- bers had already secured the booty they were after before the explosion occurred which created the disastrous wreck of the vault, she furniture and the damage generally tothe build. ing. Then why this explosion? Vari- ous theorles are entertained, but the application of either seems scarcely tenable, from the fact that the per- petratore of thiscrime outrage could have made their escape much more readily under ordinary circumstances without this alarm than with it. In all probability the discovery of the robbery would not have been made much before the regular hour for opening the bank {fthe explosion had not occurred, whereas, with ft, it was made directly after the occur- rence. Secret service men and vari- ous kinds of detectives are at work on the cage, but as yet nothing that will throw any light upon the per- petrators has been discovered. ] |BANK ROBBERY MYSTERIOUS! to be Rutus Jacob, a brewery worker | of St. Loute, was found here with his! throat cut. His body lay within twenty tive yards of the Mississipp! River and Bonne Terre depot, in plain view of the public hignway, yet no one saw him killed. He had been dead but a short while when found. Three men, who were seen with him earlier in the day, were arrested and are being held fot the Coroner. In his pocket was found a member- ship cardinthe Brewery Workers’ Union, and two envelopes addressed to Mre. Mary Wehelm Hulman, No. 2905 Neosho street, St. Louie, and Miss Carrie Hafman, of the same ad- dress. One of the envelopes bore a Cairo, Ill, postmark. The ground near where he was found bore noevidences of astruggle, yet there is no question but that he was slain. His head was almost severed from his body, aud no knife or Other weapon was found.
