CHARGED WITH BURGLARY
RICHARD MILES CAUGHT IN GEORGE
KREITLEIN's STORE.
He Formerly worked There and Knew
the Safe COMMUNICATIONS
to Good Family.

A -neat-appearing young man named Rich
ard Miles. an electrician, of No. 20 South
Arsenal avenue. spent last night behind the
bars of the police station, charged with
burglary and grand larceny. He was caught
in the bicycle store of George Kreitlein, at
No. 2S South Illinois street. in the act of
trying to open the safe.
Kreitlein had missed money from the safe
and suspected some one who was familiar
with the store. Miles formerly worked
there, having been dismissed only three
weeks ago.. He had a duplicate key and
knew the combination of the safe. Miles
said at the station that he had visited the
store three times before, getting about SIS.
The owner of the store and two night
watchmen secreted themselves on the cellar
steps and waited from 8 o'clock until II be-
fore the burglar made his appearance. Miles
was heard to open the door, and after al
lowing him to be seated in front of the safe
and begin work on the combination one of
the watchmen stepped out and Kreitlein
showed a revolver In his face. Miles sur
rendered and begged for mercy. Bicycle
men Askins and Duncan were called and
took Miles to the station.
After his arrest Miles did not appear in
the last frustrated, but took the affair
calmly, though he seemed troubled. He be-
longs to an old and respected family of the
city.

FLATS BY H WEEK.
Enterprise Conducted by Several New
York Women.
New York Times.

New York Times.
1t was an Asbury Park property owner
who made 1t possible for one to boast of his
seaside cottage for the amount of a weeks
rent. The season had well advanced, and he
still had his establishment on his hands,
when the idea of making at least some
thing out of it occurred to him.. He served
notice through the newspapers that it was
within the reach weekly of any one who
could stand the expense of a seaside
splurge for that modest period, and rented
then to others. for each of the eight weeks
for which the season lasted. 1t was COM
plete in all of its appointments, and the
changing families had nothing to do but
laJ In their provisions to find themselves in
the full swing of Housekeeping.
There are a number of enterprising wom-
en- who are applying the same idea 10 the
flats and apartments in New York city, and
make comfortable livings out of their sew
eral ventures. They hire the apartments
from the landlords or agents. furnish them.
Agents of the high-class flats are somewhat
shy OF dealing with them. because of the
class of tenants their methods are apt to
invite. but the managers OF some of the less
pretentious apartments are often glad to
make liberal concessions for their aid in
keeping their houses full.
One woman has as many as ten fats in
houses on the streets running into Central
Park west. Another has on her hands all
the fats in a large house further west.
Their landlords permit them to furnish and
advertise all the flats. but rent money is ex-
acted olly for those which are sublet, and
then only for the period the tenant remains.
If he stays but a week, the house owner re-
ceives only the weekly proportion of the
months rent. A woman. TO hold a privilege
like this. must look well after her end of
the business and keep the number of her
unrented holdings down to a minimum.
Not often are such concessions made. The
landlords, as a rule. insist upon having
from the speculative women the rent of the
flats they furnish whether they are occupied
or not. An unoccuoied fiat eats into their
profits. But still they manage to make both
ends meet comfortably. 4 woman will pay,
say, S23 or $24 for an empty fat. She will
curtain the windows with cheap but snowy
laces and ft IL up all through with rugs.
Carpets are never used-indeed, nothing that

shape that IL can be taken out i'm an hour.
Even the curtains are hung on poles that
can be lifted of their rests and carried out
on short notice.
Around the sitting room or parlor the
landlady disposes a lounge or sofa, a rock
ing chair. a center table and an upholstered
chair or two. Some cheap little figures on
the mantel and a print or two on the walls
answer for decorations. She sets a small
extension table in the dining room, four or
five cane-seated chairs, and sometimes q

Do YOU wish to be beautiful? Or. If you
