under the imputation that she let her
husband suffer for any of the comforts
of life. And she is right to put her

Hawaii is not inclined to take that
ready made treaty that the Japs have
drafted for her acceptance, by which
an agreement is made to arbitrate all
difficulties in the Japanese fashion.
Hawaii is in no hurry and will very
likely wait until Japan can transact
her Hawaiian business with the Unit
ed States. That will be safer for
Hawaii and better all around.

diers are seldom of sufficiently high
character as to be proof against con-

at their ends by sly methods are
thwarted. Blanco will hold out the
soft hand to Cuba at first, but if it is

HOUSES LOOTED

George Simons' Residence
on Eleventh Street Thor
oughly Ransaoked.
Valuable Furs, Trimmings,
Wearing Apparel and Other
Articles Stolen.
David Carbrae, 0hapultepeo Street,
Has an Early / orning Visit and
Chases the Intruders.

Two daring bur glaries were reported at
police headquarters yesterday morning,
and in one of them the occupant of the
house chased and nearly captured the
burglars.
Between and o'clock Friday night
the residence of George Stmcns, 245
Eleventh street, was entered during the
temporary absence of the family. The
front window had been left Unmatched,
and it was by opening it that the burglars
obtained an entrance. The house is near
the corner of Folsom street. which is a
busy thoroughfare, and the burglars took
desperate chances of being observed
crawling through the front window.
When the family returned, they were
amazed to find tn at every 70 m had been
ransacked. In the bedrooms the bedding
had been tossed to the floor and the
mattre- ses ripped up in search of coin or
jaweiry. Bureau drawers had been
emptied of their contents, and what the
burglars did not carry away with them
they lett strewn upon the floor.
Being afraid OF burglars the family Ike pit
their Jawelry in a secret place, and it is
thought that the burglars by some means
or other became cOnversant of that fact,
hence the sytematlc search made by them.
Among the articles taken were a valua-
bic sealSkin cape and collar, 10S yards of
fur trimming, quantity of clothing, I'M
derwear and other articles. An attempt
had been made to break open metal
bank belonging to one of the sons, which
contained about So in silver, but hey
failed and threw 1t into the fire place.
They even rummaged through Slmons'
| private papers.
About o'clock Friday morning the
wife of David Carbrae, collector for the
Royal Furniture Company, q Chapulte-
! pee street, was awakened by hearing a
noise downstairs. She reused her hus-
| band and he slipped on his trousers and
| crept downstairs with blood IN his eye.
Before he reached the bottom of the stairs
two men ru he'd out OF the kitchen anu
out OF the front door, which had been pur-
! posely lie open by the burglars.
Carbrae chased them, yelling for help,
| and was gaining upon them when they
| made detour and he lost track of them.
The burglars got away with his week S
wages and several articles of jeweIry,
which tuey found in the parlor.
