 Work-Escape From Police

Chicago, March 9.-Four burglars in dress suits, fully armed and driving to the homes of their victims in car riages, are the latest novelty in Chi cago criminal circles. The thieves have worked on the west side, and es- pecially in the Maxwell street district
 and have caused the police no end of annoyance. Early this morning they entered a flat building at 325 Laf1in street, choked a woman into insensi- bility and chlorofcrmed a family They were pursued by police and citizens, but made their escape by leaping into a carriage which was waiting on a cor ner 2 short distance away, A dozen shots were fired at the thieves and they

INVITED TO PHOENIX
The Republican Invites RudYsrd Kip
 ling Here to Regain Health.

Throughout the civilized world the interest in the illness of Rudyard Kip ling has been greater than that shown for any other parsonage, even a crowned head, in the last generation. Every hamlet as well as the large cti- ies has manifested this interest Here in Phoenix there are hundreds of ad- mirers of the author Of the 'Manda- Iay,' and daily since his sickness be- gan have telephone inquiries come into The Republican office asking for the latest bulletin about the authors condition.
 Now that he is convalescing The Re publican realized that if he could be induced to come to the incomparable climate of Phoenix his recovery would be rapid and sure and there would be no danger of any latent disease which so often results from pneumonia. Ac- coTdingly the following telegram in viting MT. Kipling to come to Phoenix was sent to the author last night: MT. Rudyard Kipling, Hotel Grenoble.

went to New York shortly afterward and they showed me his report and feared that I must be mistaken about the mine I told them that if they felt that way about it I would pur- chase their stock and secured an option on it then and there. I got it for about $2 a share and almost immediately after sold it to Philadelphia parties for S5 a share Today that stock could not be bought for s20 a share. What my minerologist friend thinks of the property now I don't know.

CLEVER ROSE STTLLMAN.

The ArdmoTeite has the following to say Of the next attraction to visit our local play house: When Ardmore people have a good thing in sight it takes something worse than mud or the grip to keep them from enjoying it. This was verified last night by the full house which greeted the Rose Stillman company in that splendid foU. act comedy The Guardian. In this production this excellent company maintained its already high grade rec ord, to the delight of the vast audi ence. The specialdes, as usual, were of the most catchy nature, the rendi- tiOn cf which met with substantial plaudits throughout"

Among the visitors at the Adams is c. B. Cory of Boston, curator of the geological department Of the Field Columbian museum at Chicago. MT. Cory is accompanied by his family, coming here to secure the benefits of Arizonas comparable climate. Speaking of the museum last night, Mr Cory said:
 ''The Field Columbian museum is destined to become the greatest mu- scum in the world in many of it's de- partments. Marshall Field has been lavish in his gifts for it's support and you would be &stOnished at the mar vicious collections being secured.

returned the fire, but, so far as known, no one was injured.
 The thieves apparently are expert porch climbers and the indications are that they climbed to the third floor of the flat building and entered the apart ments of J. Jacobson, who, with his wife ard infant child. was asleep in the bedroom leading from the kitchen The window looking out from this room to the rear porch was forced open by the burglars, who chloroformed Jacobson, his wife and child. They secured $25 in cash, d gold watch chain and other jewelry, a quantity of clothing and toy bank containing $1, the property of Jacob3on's child.

should be taught to observe accurately, to know, and how to use his
 knowledge. Parents should be careful to apprehend the difficulties the boy is liable to encounter and teach him
 how to meet them. Tom should be
 taught that he is born 9 person, not a
 thing; that he is a cause, not an eff
 feet; a power, not a piece of putty.
 Bishop Vincent illustrated this point
 by referring to logs floating down
 stream and the power of a tug to hold
 them back or take them against the current. So Tom should overcome cir cumstances; be a tug, net log. Some men lament as enc of their greatest calamaties that they had no choice in the selection of their great ggandpar- entS. Adverse circums tanceS should be only opportunities to develop our will power. Tom should be taught his 'Einterdependence" and should think, What can I be doing to help others be and do?" One point brought out very clearly was the influence of the employer on the boy from 14 to 20, which he illustrated with two very beautiful parables of a young boy leav- ing home for the city. The last and plea was, Never give Tom up" He said it seemed to sometimes take God eighty years to get a grip on a man. So we should never give him up, either from an educational or moral standpoint. But it is impossi- ble to do justice to the lecture in short report.
 At the close the bishop expressed privately his appreciation of the cour- tesy and kind attention given him by the audience. and the audience was surely well pleased with the D shop.

NOT MONEY ENOUGH
Two Million Dollars Offered
 for Black Warrior.
Fir. Fleming Says Ten Times Thai Amount Would Not Buy inc Mine Ore Vein 73 Feet Wide Carrying I8 Der Gent Copper.

"Yes sir, it is true that I today re- fused an offer of s2.OOO. 900 for my in terest in the Black Warrior mine at Globe" said James A. Fleming at the Adams last night. "The offer was made in this way. I was asked if l would accept an offer of $2,OOO,O0O for my interest. My reply was no sir, nor ten times that amount. Of course s2,OOO.OO0 is a big lot of money but 1 would not sell my interest in the Black Warrior for that sum for the reason that there is more than that amount of ore value in sight now.
 ''To show you what we have 1 don't mind telling you that at the 309-foot level where we are now we have ledge of ore 73 feet across that runs eighteen per cent copper. From the surface of this vein, just under the grass roots. we took out HOO tons O. ore that run 14.8 per cent copper to the ton Such ore as shows at the 3OO-foot level is worth $45 ton and 1t does not take much of a mathemat1c- ian to figure out the fact that body of ore three hundred feet deep by seyenty-three feet wide running the length of mining claim and carrying IS per cent copper is worth more thar $2,OOO,OOO.
 Besides that I have located eXten- sions of the Black Warrior lead. As you know the hill dips at the town and there is quite a drop or fiat on the lower side of the town. The copper vein drops with this dip but taking the trend of the vein I followed it across the hill and found where it came up again and have located the extensions for a very considerable distance cover ing all that rich copper belt.
 There is a good deal of personal satisfaction aside from the money value in the success of the Black War | rior. When I first secured control of the property induced some New York | capitalists to take stock in it with me, | They were not satisfied with my re- port and sent out one of the most noted minerologists in the country to l report on the mine. And by the way this man is here in Phoenix today. | Well this noted minerologist reported 1 that the property was of no value. I |

BISHOP VINCENT's LECTURE.
Tom and His Teachers the Topic for Most Interesting and In
 structive Address.

Bishop Vincent delivered his famous lecture, From and His Teachers" last night in the First M F. church to an audience that crowded the large edifice to the doors. The bishop is a most pleasing speaker. His enunciation is perfect and his words full of meaning.
 His subject takes the boy from in fancy and brings to view the many teachers that go to build up his char acter. These are in the main not the ones supposed to do the most of the teaching All his surroundings are helping to build his character. Tom
