NEW FASHION IN BURGLARY.
High Noon Affairs Are the Thing

in the Mill City.
With startling audacity Indicative of their
increasing confidence, burglars forced the
outer Office door of DR.. H. S. Nelson, 10l
Washington avenue south, at noon yesterday,
ransacked the apartments and carried away
a valuable blue-colored cloth overcoat. In
the brief series of acts in petty larceny that
of yesterday caps the climax. The whistles
were blowing for the noon hour when DR..
Nelson turned the lock. in the outer door of
his Office to partake of dinner at the National
hotel, one block distant. He thinks he was
watched by some person acquainted with his
office and the building. On his return a
short time later his door was open and the
contents of the desk strewn about the floor.
The door had been forced
There are other Offices along the same floor
and people were in them ct the time, but no
sound of smashing locks was heard. People
thronged the sidewalks below and a patrol
man stood on a neighboring corner, but in
no case was attention attracted to the do
ings of the burglar. The latter left the build
ing with the coat unnoticed and unknown.
Mash" Murphy, brother of Lieut.. Jerry
Murphy of No. 1 chemical, fire department,
was stopped by two men at Eighth avenue
$50 O'Clock while on his way to his home
at Twenty-fourth street and Tenth avenue
south, and compelled to hand over his watch
at the point of two revolvers. Young Muir
ply is slightly deaf and did not hear the COM
mand of the men as they confronted him.
He rather attempted to push them aside, when
a revolver was flashed before his face and an
other pressed to the back Of his neck. Forced
to act discreetly, he allowed the men to go
through his pockets Fortunately he had left
a considerable sum of money at his home
earlier in the evening, and that escaped their
clutches.
But Nash" was ioath to give up so easily.
AS the robbers took to their heels he gave
chase to one and grabbed him by the head
as he was scaling a board fence near by.
The latter turned and pointing his revolver
in the face of his pursuer swore he would
kill him If he followed further. The warning
was acted upon reluctantly, as Murphy is a
fine athlete, and was of the belief he could
overpower the fellow. AS it was when he
snatched for his head he pulled from his
face the mask worn by the robber, and is
now positive he can identify him any place.

New Arrangement. in New Jersey for
Delivering Goods.

means of facilitating the shipment of goods
from point to point, but managers every

Impossible to deliyer packages directly

ever. to prevent tho establishment of re-

The Consolidated TRACTION Company has
made ar arrangement by which the United
States Express Company will do business
over the various lines i'll special cars built
for the purpose, and six of the cars are
now being built for the experiment They
will be roomy box cars, equipped with a

of these cars the express company will be
able to do business in every town entered
by one of the trolley lines, and it is hoped

promised by the traction company that the

With the first firm coating of thin, black

foot on the shallower spots to test the bear

air holes, playing hockey by day and pris-

the little known but rarely delightful pastime
of understanding. This latter is particu-
larry popular among the skateless lads.
1t is only possible during a freeze;
that is, when the stream is covered with
clear, fresh ice Soon after the first cold
night or two you will see in many a village

with short, heavy-headed clubs and an AK

"A motorman will allow his car to run
over a dog without any conjunction, but
when it comes to cat on the track 1t
brings out what little superstition may be
in the man, and most of the motormen
have a little,'' said a conductor. The car
had come to a sudden stop, and all the
passengers. who had noticed little kitten
in front of the car, stood up and looked to
see If its mangled remains were on the
track. "Why, have known my motorman
to run his car back half a square at night
to see II he had killed a cat" said the con-
ductor. 1.-The headlight on the car seems
to attract them after dark, and they will
stand in front of an approaching car and
their eyes cleaning in the darkness like
balls of fire. They seem to make no effort
to get out of the way and disappear from
the motorman's view under the end of the
car, leaving him in doubt as to whether he
killed it or not I guess when they get out
Of the range Of the headlight they realize
their position and scurry out Of the way"
