TRANSOM THIEF Is BUSY
MISS KATE FOUsT ROBBED OF JEW
ELRY VALUED AT $1,000.
job Evidently Done by Same Man
Who Entered Rooms at ClaypoOI
and Denison Hotels.

A housebreaker entered the Foster home,
at 7O4 North New Jersey street, and sue
ceeded in getting away with about $1,000
worth of jewelry belonging to Miss Kate
Foust, a sister-in-law of the late Gen. Rob-
ert s. Foster and the loss was not discov-
cred until yesterday.
Tho police were at once notified and an
investigation was made. but no clew to the
thief was discovered. Miss Foust kept the
Jewels in a chamois bag, which she con-
cealed in the back part of a bureau drawer,
and the last time she saw them was on
Saturday night, when she placed them away
for safekeeping. The sneak thief left no
traces of his visit to the house, and as all
the doors and windows were locked ii is evil
dent that he made his entrance to the
apartments of Miss Foust by climbing over
the transom.
The police and detectives are of opinion
that the robberies in the apartments of
John w. Hoffman in the Claypool Hotel
and Mr.. Mobiles apartments in the Deni-
son last week were the work of the thief
who stole the property of Miss Foust. and
there is no doubt but that IL is the work
of one experienced in the art of sneak
thieviHg.
Miss Foust said that among the things
stolen from her were diamond rings, pins
and brooches, a watch and chain and sew
eral articles of jewelTy valuable to her on
account of their associations. On account
OF the recent state fair and the horse show
this week a number of crooks have tempo
rarily located in the city, IL is said.

white men and that they have earned their
rights by conscientious and sincere support
of the party which recognized their right to
citizenship.
Mayor Bookwalters address was the OPEN
ing speech and was not long, he had
another engagement and was forced to leave
early in the evening. Following him Con-
sui Furniss spoke on the opportunities of
the negro, given by Lincoln, to enter any
and every profession of the country Judge
