Clever Capture Of a Burglar by Two
Officers Yesterday.
They Found Him Sacreted in the
House of Frank Sweeney,
on H Street.

Sergeant Plunkett and Officer Fitz-
gerald made very clever capture of a
burglar yesterday afternoon, and they
got him so dead to rights" that there
| is no possibility of his escaping the
penitentiary
A little before 5 o'clock a telephone
message was received at the police
station to the effect that a man had
| been seen to enter the residence of
Frank Sweeney, at 1706 H street the
family being away. Plunkett happened
to be at the station at the time and
he and Fitzgerald jumped into the pa
troll wagon and drove out to the Swee-
ney residence
The officers tried the rear doors of the
basement and first story, but found
them locked, also the front door A
lady living next door found key, how
ever, that unlocked one of the doors,
and Plunkett and Fitzgerald entered
and searched the house. They found a
trunk open in a closet and the contents
oyerhauled also the bureau drawers,
but after looking under beds, in closets
and under lounges they failed to find
any burglar, and were about to give up
the search, believing that he had made
his escape before they got there.
As last effort, however, Fitzgerald
concluded to look behind a bureau that
stood diagonally across one corner of a
bedroom in the second story 1t was
very fortunate he did so, for when the
bureau was pulled out from the wall
there crouched the big and burly bur
glar
Throw up your hands and come out
of there, or I'll fill you full of holesl"
commanded Fitzgerald.
Il quit, boys; you've got me!' quickly
responded the burglar, as he raised
aloft his hands and walked out.
The officers took him to the police
station, where he gave the name of
James Hart, and said he arrived only
yesterday morning from ogden. In one
of his pockets was found a skeleton
key, but no plumber.
The officers had acted so quickly that
he had not had time to finish his search
of the house.
OTHER BURGLARIES.
Two other residences were entered
yesterday afternoon, but there are sew
eral precincts to be heard from, and it
may be that other houses suffered.
Someone-probably the man now un-
der arrest-entered the residence of T.
J. Brennan at 1913 Twenty street,
while the members of the family were
cut, and stole a watch and a small sum
of money.
George McLaughlin's residence next
door was also entered, but all that has
been missed therefrom is three razors.

Deafness cannot be Cared

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an indamed con-
dltion of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets intiamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to
it's normal condition. hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an infamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.
We will give One One Hundred Dol
lars for any case Of deafness Caused
by catarrh) that cannot be cured by

Cam we Raise Wheat?

A subscriber of the Jennings Times
very pe~rtinently enquiries. "Why not
raise our own wheat and make our own
flour? Louisiana ought to live indie
pendently of any other part of the
United States so far as the products of
the soil are concerned and viii do so
just as soon as the farmers realize the
possibilities before them.n
By this we are reminded that a
couple of years since VIM. Meaux, a
prosperous and progressive farmer lily
ing in the Coles Island settlement
brought US a bunch of well filed heads
of wheat which be had grown from a
small sample package Of seed sent him.
Would it not be we'll for some of the
western farmers who have settled in
Southwest Louisiana, and who are
thoroughly familiar with wheat culture
to give it a trial? 1t is grown very
successfully only about $50 miles furth-
er north, in eastern Texas, and in all
probability would do fairly we'll in this
section. These are the days of diver
sified farming and our people should
resolve to make everything count.
Can't someone be persuaded to make o
trial of wheat growing?
