DENVER, Aug. 4.-Helen Peterson,
years of age, and her sister Mamie, II
years old, were arrested here to-day on
the charge of burglary. Their mother,
Kate Peterson, is held for receiving
stolen goods.
About midnight on Saturday the chill
Gren left their home thoroughly equipped
for their criminal! mission. Before they
entered the millinery store of Miss Kitty
Dunphy, 633 Sixteenth street, which they
burg giarized, they were forced to progress
through a long dark alley, strewn with
old dry goods cases and other litter. They
then, in a professional manner, h0isted
large transom and slipped into the store.
They carried several gunnysacks. which
they filled in the basement With ilats, rib
bons and laces amounting to $50. To
allow their escape with the plunder, they
forced open a large iron grating with iill-
provised implements found in the store.
When their home was searched over
$500 worth of goods was recovered and
taken to police headquarters. The mother
denies auy connection with the affair,

y Number Of Changes to be Made In
the White House This Year.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-The annual
renovation of the White House in the
absence of the President and family
means more this year than usual. Be-
sides the ordinary cleaning and painting,
a numbe of changes Will be made. The
most important OF these is the new door
way at the rear of the redroom. This
has been done in order to facilitate the
egress at receptions, and obviate the ne
cessity of visitors having to make their
way through the dense throng that usu-
ally on such occasions makes the inner
corridor almost impass bic. This new
doorway has been cut to correspond in
every way with the beautiful oldfash-
ioned ones that lead, respectively. to the
red and green rooms. The last important
finishing touches OF the polish that will
bring out the rosewood 10 perfection
alone remain to be given. In the east
room the furniture Will be entirely COW
cred in gold colored satin damask, sim
liar to that now IN use. The curtains will
be renewed, and there will also be new
carpets SO that the effect will be That of
general newness throughout the most
imposing apartment in the W hite House,
