h. BURGLARS BIG HAUL. 4
$4,000 Worth Of Property Taken
from David Lindsay's Resi-
dence-Another Attempt
Highwayman's Act.

Some members of the organized band of
burglars which have been robbirg Will
mington residences at pleasure of late,
Saturday night robbed the residence of
David Lindsay. No. 1901 Pennsylvania
avenue, of $1,000 worth of diamonds and
jewelry, and attempted to enter the home
of Daniel f. Stewart, No 1870 Wost
hand of Mrs. Walter Simmons of No. 700
Washington street, her pocketbook con-
tanning over IS
These crimes were committed bet ween
30 and $50 o'clock, a time when police
protection in the outer districts is not of
tho best. The attempt to enter the Stewart
residence was probably the first under.
taking as it occurred shortly after 0
o'clock. The members of the family were
at supper on the first floor of the building
when an up stairs noise attracted their
attention. An investigation showed that
an attempt had been made to pry open
front window.
Tho Lindsay robbery occurred shortly
after $50 o'clock and the haul was the
largest one the robbers have yet made.
All the property was on the second floor
of the large house, and while Mr.. Lindsay
and all the members of his family were at
supper the burglars climbed porch post
and entered. through window Mr..
Lindsay had raised five minutes before to
air the house. The building was lighted,
yet with almost unprecedented nerve the
burglars searched for the switch and turn
ed off all the lights on the floor.
Only one room was visited by the
thieves and 1t was Mrand Mrs Lindsay's
bed room, in which Mrs Lindsay had also
been five minutes before. She had I'M
locked the middle drawer Of her bureau
and taken out some money, then locked
1t again and went down stairs. Mrs.
Lindsay believes the burglar was watch
ing her for when the robbery was dis.
covered the middle drawer was still
locked, the jewelry being taken after the
top drawer Of the bureau had been remov-
ed
The property consisted of two gold
watches, diamond pin, diamond ring,
pair of diamond ear rings, stud and scarf
pin. Mrs Lindsay was wearing her
wedding ring. About $50 in cash was
also taken. Many Of the stolen articles
were heir looms. They were of little
market value, but their historic worth and
association We're considerable, and Of
police have clue in the shape of gold
plated locket which was found in the
yard of the residence but which was not
taken from the house
Mrs. Simmons was robbed about 30
o'clock, us she passed the corner of Seventh
and Wollaston streets. She carried her
purse in her hand and it was grabbed
from behind. She had been visiting a
friend. There were many people on the
street who were attracted by Mrs. Sim
mons cries and who followed the thief
but were unable to overtako the man, who
Is white and was well dressed.

A COAT OF ARMS,

The practice of granting arms is still In

tria, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Germany,
etc, and that at times the pope as sover-
egn pontif1, exercises the power Is wit
messed by Leo XIII granting arms to the
Catholic see of Westminster by decree
dated the Both of June, 1894.
Indeed it is by patent or grant alone
that new family can legitimately ac-
quire coat of arms.
The modus operandi in England, for
example, is as follows: The applicant for
a patent of arms from the CROWN may
employ any member he pleases of the her.

memorial OF the carl marshal of England,
who acts for the crown in these matters,
setting forth that he, the memorialist, is
not entitled to arms or cannM prove his
right to such, and praying that his grace
the earl marshal will issue his warrant to
the kings of arms, authorizing them to
grant and confirm to him due and proper
armOrial ensigns, to be borne according to
the laws of heraldry by him and his de-
scendants. This memorial is presented,
and u warrant is issued by the earl mar
shal, under which patent of arms is
made out, exhibiting Il painting of the
armorial ensigns granted, the royal arms
of England, the arms of the earl marshal
and those of the college, and describing in
official terms the proceedings that have
taken place and correct blazon of the
arms This patent is registered in the
books of the heralds' college and receives
the signatures of the garter and one or
both Of the provincial kings of arms.
A grant Or patent of arms is made to q
