DURING PURSUIT
Police Arrest Two Men
for Breaking Into
a Saloon.
Three Shots Fired at One
Before Stopping Him
in His Flight.

Matthew J. Butler. a sheet metal
worker. and John Foran, a teamster, are
in the City Prison with charge of bur-
glary booked against them. They were
arrested early yesterday morning, and
Butler, while attempting to escape, was
shot in the calf Of the leg, but the wound
is only a superficial one.
Shortly before o'clock James J. Con-
very. 532 Third street. while passing
Thomas Comisky's saloon at S54 Third
street heard the breaking Of glass, and,
suspecting that something was wrong,
notified Policeman Mcdowell, who went
TO the saloon. He saw at once that the
place had been visited by burglars and
blew his police whistle. Policemen
Moran. Tllman, Ruggles and Clay re-
sponded.
The officers got a description of three
men who had been seen in front of the
saloon by T Behan. a watchman for the
United Railroads. Mcdowell, Ruggles
and Moran entered the saloon TO see if the
burglars were still there and Tillman and
Clay walked along Third street They
discovered two men. who proved to be
Butler and Foran, trying to force open
the door OF saloon at 329 Third street.
Butler and Foran ran, but Foran was
soon caught by Tillman. Watchman Be-
han yelled TO Mcdowell. Ruggles and
Moran that the men were coming and
they rushed out Of the saloon just as
Butler dashed past with Clay in pursuit.
Moran, who was ahead OF the others.
called upon Butler TO stop. but he con-
tinued 10 run and turned west on Har-
Tison street. Moran fired a shot at him
but II only made him increase his speed.
Moran again called upon Butler to stop
and when Butler reached Clara street
Moran fired two more shots at him. one of
the bullets taking effect in the calf of his
leg and bringing him to a sudden pause in
his flight Butler was placed under ar
rest and taken to the Central Emergency
Hospital, where his wound was dressed.
He was then taken TO the City Prison,
where Foran had preceded him. They
were identified as the men seen in front
Of Comisky's saloon.
Byron B. Bradley. a laborer living al
3lI Third street. was also arrested by
Iillman, as he had also been seen in front
Of the saloon. but he was able to prove
that he had no connection with Butler or
Foran and was merely held as a witness
Bradley said he was going home and
heard the breaking Of glass at Comisky's
saloon. he walked along to see what was
the matter. when Butler came out OF a
doorway adjoining the saloon and de-
ma1ded Bradiey's money for drink Brad
ley said he did not have any and was al
lowed 10 go. He walked toward Market
street and told young man he met not
TO go on that side of the street, as two
fellows were holding up an old man and
they had also held him up. While return
ing from Market street he was arrested
by Tillman
Between "a and $ had been stolen from
the TIL in Comiskys saloon. When Bur
Ter and Foran ran away from 329 Third
street one Of them was seen to throw
away cold chisel and screw driver.

ence Of liquor when arrested.

EiScher,s

Another big crowd was in attendance at
Fischers Theater last night.
The Glad Hand" and "Con-curers'
have caught on in good shape. The CO.
medians seem funnier than ever. and the
solos and choruses are encored again and
again.
An incident took place in the last act
that was quite out of the ordinary. In
one of the stage boxes were a number of
well-known men about town. accompanied
by fashiOnably attired women. One of
their number started the fun by throw
ing a half dollar on the stage. Others
followed. Barney Bernard was the first
to grab the situation and reached for the
coin. More dollars were thrown, and KoIb
came to the rescue and scooped in what
he could Finally Dill came from behind
the stage bar and pOcketed a half At
this jGncture Maud Amber came on, be-
ing greeted by a perfect shower of gilt
tering coins. She made no attempt to
capture any of them being content to
gaze upon the headlight diamond that the
court had awarded her during the day.
The chorus, however, joined in a merry
scramble, and 1t was a case of catch-as-
catch-can.

the audience
Miss Martha Waldron leaves particu-
larly pleasing impression as the gay

chocolate maker, Moulinet. was done by
Walter Allen. who brings a dry rather
than unctuous humor to the role. but was
still very useful to the cast: and George

add notably to the casts effectiveness.

but the intended victim is snatched from
the laws of death in marvellous man
ner. The play is full of color and replete
with strong dramatic incidents and thrill
ing scenes. The action takes place in IN
dia. and the piece has been given a gor-
geous Oriental setting. The title is taken
from the Eleventh British Hussars, who
lost a fight by tarrying in a cherry or
chard and were dubbed Cherry Pickers' .
The plot deals with conflict between the
aggressive English and the half-castes

and action in every line of the play as il
was rendered and the harmonious char
acter of the work Of the players was
truly remarkable.
To Florence Roberts, who occupied the
title role. of course belongs most of the
credit. Her, leadership made 1t easy for

spirit were infectious She has never an
