dermann's hall, in the North End, on

ence. This will be the first of series
of plays to be given by the organiza-
ton here during the season.

t this time,

SlEQSQ
All this red tape is presumably cal
culated to confuse the victim, who Is
required to give up $40 as his initia-
ton fee, and then take the oath. The
police interpret the letters "R. P. A"
to mean Robbers Protective Associa-
ton, which is appropriate, even if the
guess is bad. Of course, the blank form
is simply one of the methods of ex-
tracing the ten dollars from the VIC
tim, as there is no such association,
although the oath may prevent victims
from telling what they know about the
swindlers.
The police have received information
that at least two Benwood citizens
have been victimized by the gang, but
they have been so mortified by the ar
rests and subsequent exposure of the
scheme that they will not prosecute.
The men who were arrested refused
to tell their names. One of them said
he was J. P. Renner, of Iittleton. An
other stated that his wife is a dress
maker in Wheeling, and that he would
not give his name because it might in
jure her business.
