BOGART JEWELRY FOUND
By the Arrest OF Crooks in Chicago, the
Mysterious Burglary Here Is
Solved

The jewelry taken from the residence
of Garrett Bogart at the corner of
Adams avenue and Spruce street, on
the evening of Sept 30, has been re-
covered by the police of Chicago.
Three men, Rubensten Bixter, alias
"Sheeney joe" Frank Johnson, of. st.
Louis, and Michael Flaherty, of Chi
cago, professional crooks, in whose
possession the stolen articles were
found, are now locked in the Chicago
city Jail awaiting the arrival of Mr..
Bogart and Detective Moir who left on
the $50 y. m. Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western train yesterday. That
the jewelry recovered is the BOgart
property was proven conclusively by a
telegram received at police headquar-
ters at o'clock last evening. This
message was in response to a query
from the local department asking if a
certain ring inscribed from Pa to
Ma" had been noticed among the
goods recovered. The answer came:
Lost jewelry recovered nailed ring de-
scribed found; wire what action will take;
secured continuance for ten days (Signed
l.. II. Coleman, chief of detectives
Mr. Bogart and Detective Moir were
already on their way to Chicago when
the last message was received. The
local department heard of the deten-
ton of "Sheeney Joe" and his pals and
the recovery of the jewelry yesterday
morning through the BinghamtOn de-
partment to whom had been sent a list
of the articles stolen here. Later in
the day a telegram from Chief of De-
tectives Calleran was received. 1t stat
ed: "Jewelry recovered here. Answers
description of property stolen from
Garrett Bogart; have mailed list.
Thieves in custody. Wire instruc-
tions."
Word was sent back to hold the
prisoners until the arrival of Mr. Bo-
CART and Detective Moir. They will
reach Chicago at 10 a. m., this morn
ing.
The recovery Of the jewelry was eff
fected only after an exciting encounter
with the three crooks. The men had
entered the American Express office in
Chicago to secure a package addressed
to "Sheeney Joe" from New York
When the crooks entered the office and
asked for the package three Chicago
detectives sprang from concealment
and with drawn reVOlvers arrested the
trio of crooks. The package was found
to contain jewelry to the estimated
value of $500 1t is supposed that
the three men have been at work all
over the country.

BUNcoERs ABROAD BEWARE

1t is the trick of the Organized De-
mocracy this fan TO make false
charges against Republican methods,
raise big dust, hire Republican mall
contents to organize Republican bolts
and then coax individual Republicans
to desert their party on the represen-
tation that party ties needn't count
for anything in an off year" BY this
trick, if it shall work, the Bryanites
will get a foothoh for a hopeful fight
in national campaigns, and make just
so much more trouble for Mckinley,
the Republican congress and the cause
of sound mercy.
You now see through this trick. Are
you going TO let it work?

BEFORE BREAKFAST.

Thursday will be the annual donation
day at the Home for the Friendess. This
Will probably be one OF the hardest VIM
ters for the institution in its history, as
expenses of building are very heavy and
the large family makes increasing de-
mands upon the kindness of The patrons.
It' is earnestly requested that the many
friends of the institution continue their
support on this occasion. There are so
many things neutrality-suspicious., clothing,
bed linen, everything available in a home
where old ladies and children are fed,
clothed and sheltered. The old people
and the little ones are looking forward
eagerly to the day when the present
close and cramped accommodations can
be exchanged for the beautiful new
building on the hilltop overlooking the
city There are those whose poor old feet
are feeble, perhaps so feeble that they
will never cross the threshold of the pref
ty rooms prepared for them by loving
hearts, and generous hands. The dim
eyes look out with longing toward the
spot where the towers of the new Home
rise, and although the time is not far dis
tant when the hoI Sc that has been a
blessed shelter for a quarter of CEN
tury will be left forever it may be that
some who wait eagerly for the change
will take but brief journey to a nearby
home small and narrow. 1t is to glad
den the hearts of such as these who at
the longest will not tarry many years
and whose lives have had little enough of
sunshine, that the plea for remembrance
on this annual gift day, is made. Don't
forget the Home.
Haydn Evans will commence rehearsals
tonight at the Penn Avenue Baptist
church for a performance of the Messiah
Dec. 2. All singers who participated and
all others are cordially invited to be pres
ent.

FROM FRYING PAN TO FIRE.
Escaped the Street Car and ColIided
with a Carriage.

James Radway and his wife, of Elm
hurst, had an experience while spend

were in a carriage and when driving
down Washington avenue in front of
the Liberty hall building a street car
coming in an opposite direction forced
Radway to drive into Simon Rice's
carriage which was stationed near the
curb.
Railways wheel tore wheel from
the Rice carriage and in it's effort the
Radway wheel itself was taken from
