L. Coburn, 1141 Market street. A check was found in his pocket when searched by Bunner. About six weeks ago Cohn stole a letter contain- ing a check for $150 from Archie Levy's booking agency and cashed the check. Two weeks ago he stole a letter con- taining a check for $25 from R. L. Brown’s room in a lodging-house at Market and Eighth streets, and got the { money on this check also. Cohn was not particular as to what the letters contained. He admitted | when questioned at police headquarters | that he stole them just for what he could find in them. He had been doing that work for three months, and dur- ing that time he had stolen about 100 | letters, Cohn lived with his sister at 521 Ivy avenue. He had been employed by the andard Shirt Company, but says he was discharged because he was ac- | cused of having stolen some jewelry from other employes. He made a full confession of the letter stealing and forgery, his only excuse being that he found it an easy way to keep himself in funds. —_————— TREAT IN STORE AT THE BENEFIT SHOW RARE Owing to Length of Programme Cur- tain Will Be Raised at 1 O’'clock.

During the s years she has been before the American public in her unique char- acter of “Sis Hopkins,” Miss Melville has accumulated a fortune estimated between a quarter of a million and three hundred thousand dollars. It would be impossible for local theater- goers to imagine the immense popular- ity this charming actress enjoys throughout the KEast. She presented “8is” for five consecutive years in the East befere jnaking her first Pacific Coast, tcur and during that time she never knew what it was to play to an empty -seat. On the occasion of her first appearance in this city last fall Miss Melville succeeded in packing the California Theater at every perform- ance, including an extra matinee. —_————— CANADA TO BUILD MINT TO HANDLE YUKON GOLD Dominion Will .Coin awa That Buliion at Ot- ow Comes to San Francisco. OTTAWA, Ontario, Dec. 8.—The Dominion Government will erect a $200,000 mint here, which will be equipped, manned and in operation within a year. The establishment of the mint means that the $15,000,000 or $20,000,000 worth of gold produced the Yulkon each year will be coined in Ottawa instead of going to San Francisco. The mint is a concession to national sentiment, which believes that the time has arrived when Canada should coin all her own currency. Copper, ilver and $250, $5 and $10 gold cces will be made. Tt will be called ! the Royal Canadian Mint.

Tillman Asks for Report on the Ne- gro’s Present Status. WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.—The Sen- ate held only a short session to-day and adjourned until Monday. An at- tempt to secure consideration of the pure food bill was defeated by a de- mand of Aldrich that the bill be read at length, which brought an objection from Tillman, who did not want the time consumed. Tillman brought the case of Wi liam D. Crum, the colored man nom- inated for Collector at Charleston, S. C., into prominence by asking for a report from the Committee on Judi ciary as to the status of recess ap- pointments. g ‘Wants Trespassing Stoc WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.—Secretdry Hitchcock in a communication recom- mends an amendment to the law rela tive to stock trespassing on Indian res. ervations so as to provide for the seiz- ure and sale of such stock. — e———— PASS MEDICAL EXAMINATION.—Out of ninety-eight applicants for the civil service examination for truckmen in the Fire Depart- ment seventy passed the medical examination yesterday.
