Enter Four Places and Get Consider
able Booty.
Early this morning burglars entered four
different houses at Girardville and, after
robbing them, succeeded in making their
escape without detection. All the rob-
berries were undoubtedly committed by one
gang as the methods by which each house
was entered seemed to have been identical
with each other. The houses were entered
from the rear by cutting holes through the
window shutters and opening the latches.
The houses entered were those of John
Groody, conductor for the Schuylkill
Traction Company, Thomas Brennan, Mrs,
German (saloon) and John Burns. Groody
was the heaviest loser. 1t is claimed $500
in cash was carried from his house. Bren-
nan lost gold and silver watch and So in
cash. Mrs. German and Burns met with
slight losses Considerable clothing be-
longing to the latters family was found
scattered about the yard at the rear of his
house.

ANOTHER WISE MOVE.
The. Police Commissioners Raise the Fine
for Certain Offeuses.

The recklessness with which Topeka
characters get drunk and commit other
offenses, and the little attention paid by
the wheelmen to the ordinance against
riding on the sidewalk. caused the board
of police commissioner TO raise the fines
at their meeting last night.
The fine formerly given a bicyclist
was $3. This was raised to 50.
1t will cost 80 to get drunk now. The
board has raised the drunks So.
1t will be too expensive to resist Off
GERS or be disorderly. Each costs $50
instead of $40. This is Judge Ferry's
very lowest price.
