FROM JEST TO EARNEST"
Two St. Paul Boys Play at House
Breaking and Are Arrested.

The double life Of Peter Albrecht. To-
year-old st. Paulte, did not succeed
Thursday like that dual existence Of which
Potter had oftimes read.
Pete had said to Jimmie Mohai. aged IA,
Les be bandits!' Jimmie was willing.
They captured and sequestered a small
brother of Jimnie's. But the spoils of
the little brother were only Jews harp
and one cent. Accordingly Peter sug,
gested that he and Jimmie cease to be
banditti. that they become house breakers
instead, and that. when they broke into
houses. Jimmie should be the robber and
Pete himself the policeman. This would
place the merger on both sides of the law.
Justice would be done and no Doodle would
escape. Under such working agree
ment, worthy of eminent legal counsel"
Pete and Jimmie invaded Thursday night
the home of a Sleighbor. Mrs. Cohar. She
kept her purse, as Jimmie had observed,
upon her bureau. She was sick in the
same room and was usually asleep. Jim
mic was getting out Of a window In retreat
when Mrs. Cohar awoke. She called to
her little daughtar and they chased the
allied interests aEound the corner. As
the woman and girl came closer Pete
stopped. exposed his tin star and inquired
Say ma am. do you want that boy ar
rested?' You can't catch him.. replied
Mrs. Cohar. But Pete could and Pete did
Thereupon bigger policeman appeared
who could catch both boys. He would moi
recognize Pete's star because it was IN
zscribed ''St. Paul Perliee."

will be made before the rates are an
nounced Until Jan. the rate on hun
dred popnds of domestic flour to the sea-

The difference Will probably be adjusted
as a. claim on the eastern roads.
1t Is understood that some Of the east
ern lines can be held to the former tariff
as they did not notify the interstate com
rerce commission of the advance. Some
Of the eastern lines had made contracts tc
haul freight through December on the
October rates, but it is believed that these
