The three then returned 20 tho hose,
where cursory investigation was made
by the officer. The only clue found by
them was an open window IN the front
hall. Serat. Carter, who lives near. was
then notified, and appeared on the scene
about 1890. He INN ediately began an
Investigation which SO far has been fruit
less.
The property taken included several
gold rings belonging 10 the little chill
dren, 1ewelYy belonging to the ladies I
the family, and three pocketbookS oon-
tanning small amount Of money.
The family, who BY this tune returned
to their thoroughly overturned home.
were told BY the officers to keep the story
as quiet as possible.
Mr.. Lewis L Reynolds, in addition to
the duties OF station agent. runs the
SomerviIls office Of the Western Union
Telegraph company.
1t Is believed that the burglars asted on
the superstition that he carried home
with him large am unit Of money. In
this they were mistaken, for IL was
learned at the bank that Mr.. Reynolds
deposits his telegraph receipts at noon
very day. The Fitchburg railroad re-
quires Its station agents to make daily
cash returns to the Boston office.
The men who committed the robbery
were doubtless sufficiently well ao-
quainted with Mr.. Reynolds movements
to know Of his intended absence Thurs
day evening. There Is also possibility
that they effected their entrance BY means
Of q skeleton key, for the family are
SURF that all the doors and windows were
properly secured when they left on their
trip to Boston. In their hurried departure
the robbers overlooked some $500 worth Of
silverware which was In the dining room.

ker yesterday while some of his Topeka
friends were attempting 10 convince him
Of the duty of aiding in securing an order
for the mastering OUT in Topeka. Mr..
Baker once said that he would help To-
peka in this matter, but since Leaven-
worth has decided to seek the honor he
has changed his mind
Senator Bakers plan is 10 have the
members Of the regiment vote as 20 their
choice of places TO be mustered out Let
the fighters decide themselves and then
let US all turn in and give them a rousing
welcome" said Mr.. Baker.
Senator Baker believes that some dis
interested party might communicate with
the regimental officers, and ask them 20
have a vote of the regiment upon this
proposition. It is suggested also by the
senator that the governor would be the
right man TO take this initial step
In discussing these matters while in To-
peka Senator Baker said: The men COM
prising the Twentieth Kansas doubtless
have preferences concerning the place al
which they shall be mustered out l am
in favor sof permitting them 10 express
themselves and then suggest that We
who are at home do what we can toward
carrying out the suggestions and wishes
of the boys now in the Philippines"
Mr.. Baker thinks this would preclude
the possibility of the promised hot fight
between the various towns which seek
this honor and IS therefore much in ia
vor Of having his suggestions adopted.
