BOLD ROBBERY

a South Side ite.latnes Entered, a
Woman Bound and Gar a. I'd and sos
stoisn-,frs. Valentine miller the Vie.
tim Eight Persons In the House at the
Time. iis
One OF the boldest roSberles suecess-
fully perpetrated in the city FOR a long
time was reported to the police ycs,er-
day morning, the particulars OF which
are that two men boldly forced an on
trance into a housc, bound. gagged and
bilnd-folded a woman, and proceeded to
carry OF everything in the room In the
way OF valuab.es amounting in all TO 500
in cash and a silver watch.
The robbery occurred ut the residence
OF Valentine Miller. a mill worker,resld-
Ing at the corner of Forty-elshth and
Jacob streets, Just, this side of the
county line, and as nearly as she can
guess, Mrs. Miller says II took place
about 1 o'clock yesterday morning. She
says the first she knew that anything
was wrong. sho was awakened by a
handkerchief being tied over her eyes
and at the same time felt something
soft like cotton In her mouth. Then
she heard a man ask somebody else TO
help him to tie her hands. She was
frightened almost to death. and al
though she tried by every means to
awaken her seven year old daughter.
who slept with her, she was unable to
do so. As she lay helpless, Mrs. Miller
heard tho men ransacking the drawers
and heard them later carry them down
stairs. About two hours later she sue
cceded In awakening her daughtcr.who
gave the alarm TO the other daughters
sleeping in an adjoining room and they
released her.
An investigation showed that the rob-
bers had effected an entrance by prylnS
open the back window, but the fact
that the shutters were not forced open
Indicates that they were probably not
fastened securely. One OF the drawers
belonging to Mrs. Mlller's dressing case
was found In the kitchen with the
contents scattered about. In this draw
er had been sos In cash and silver
watch belonging 10 Mr.. Miller, these
were missing. In another drawer In
the same dresser. were several watches
that the burglars missed.
What makes the robbery seem more
strange and bold Is the fact that In or
der to. reach Mrs. Miller's room the bur-
glars had to pass through a room in
which several grown daughters were
sleeping, and then passed back. carry
Ing the drawers. 1t is suspected that
chloroform was used to prevent inter-
ference by the young ladies' awakening
before the job was complete. There
were In all eight persons In the house
at the time the robbery was committed,
Mrs. Miller and seven daughters. Mr..
Miller was at work at the Riverside.
The police were not informed OF the
robbery until late yesterday morning.
and the robbers had plenty OF time to
get away. They are hard at work on
the case. however, and are said to have
a clue to the guilty parties. One thing
is sure, the robbers knew where the
money was when they entered. and al
so knew the plan OF the house pretty
well.
The story printed in the evening pa
per that Mrs, Miller had said one was |
tall man and the other q short one, was
not so. Mrs. Miller says she did not see
either OF them and could not Identify
them under any circumstances.

DELIGHTFUL MUSICALE.
Flattering Reception Accorded Miss
Ella Brice.

Lin i'lISt.
The Woman's Musical Club had 4 very
charming afternoon yesterday. The
programme was short and delightfully."-
rendered. The chief point OF interest
centered In the first appearance before
a Wheeling audience OF Miss Ella Br!ce,
the only daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. S. L.
Brice, as pianist. and the ilatterirg re-
caption accorded the young lady. should
be very encouraging to her and her
friends. Miss Brice brings very pref
" tone from the Instrument and her
playing was worthy a student, with
many more years Of hard work TO her
credit. The selection, "Dorn-roeschen,"
BY Bendel. was artistically interpreted,
and aside from winning the hearty APP
plause of her hearers, received the sin
cere compliment Of her instructor. Prof.
Hermann Schockey, who cites her as an
example Of what few years Of careful
study can do.
The result OF her first appearance yes
terday warrants the prediction, that
there is n brilliant future before her.
Miss Brice is a sweet hammered. modest
girl and youngest r1em'bcr OF the club.
The vocal work was all good, the chorus
showing to fine advantage In "Waken:
Waken; Day is Dawnlng." Miss Alice
Egcrter and Miss Eleanor Fardy, In
their solo rcniltlons sustained the repu-
tations won at former recitals. Both
have sweet voices, and are always cor
daily received. The double trio, Hail!
Welcome Day." was very pretty num-
Der and the young ladies taking part In
It. did.exceptionally well. The afternoon
proved enjoyable as 1t afforded n relax
alton from the much heavy music OF the
week. The clubs open recital takes
place In the a. o. U. W. Temple next
Friday night and will be a G!uck and
Haydn celebration.

HOURS.

From an early hour to II o'clock yes
terday morning, the city was envelopcd
in dense fog. one OF the. heaviest that
has visited t!iis part OF the valley for
some time. AS a result, the boats on the
river were forced to go TO the bank, and
trade was supcnded on the local street
car lines. while business houses were
forced to use an illumination. 1t was
almost as suod as being in Lunnon, you
know.
The fos was also responsible for two
accidents as well as delays, on local
street car lines. Two collisions occurred
on the Wheeling Railway company's
line. and the Wheeling & Elm Groves
electric line suspended traffic for over an
hour.
OF the ACCIDENTS on the Wheeling line,
the more serlous happened about s
o'clock. Two cars came together. head
first, at Forty-hfth and Jacob strectp.
The force OF their collision shattered the
cabs OF both cars, wood and glass being
rent into fragments. The cars were No.
40, and No. 81. and Conductor Robert
Holllngshcad and Charles Sonnefcld, OF
the former, and Conductor John L.
Haynes, and motorman, Hay R0usch, OF
the latter. were all somewhat injured by
the flying glass. Their hands or faces
were iacerated, but Rousch's jaw re-
ceived hard jolt. DR.. Clyde Ford
dressed the wounds.
The accident occurred on stretch OF
track, used by both up and down cars,
but the mist prevented the motormen
from seeing the approaching cars There
were no passengers hurt, and the an
jurles to the street car men were COM
paratively slight. Following the colls-
ion Manager Wright ordered a suspep-
sion of traffic, and thus by shutting off
the current from the power house. the
Elm Groves electric line was forced to
suspend. The fog cleared sufficiently
for n resumption of travel by II O'clock.
The other collision occurred at Twen-
ty-fourth and Chapline streets, also
about o'clock, when the fog was at its
thickest. Car No. so dashed into the
rear end OF one OF Schmulbach's delivery
wagons, Motorman C. H.. Creighton's
arm was injured, and the cab of the car
suffered from the contact with the
wagon.
About II o'clock the fog cleared, and
the mlsts had rolled away. The sun
came out in his wealth OF sunshine and
u regular spring day followed. Then
rain dropped down in the evening.
