GAME DID NOT WORK.

Mrs. Mary Lehr Claimed She Had Been
 Robbed When She Herself Was the
 Aggressor. :.
 Mrs. Mary Lehr of 693 Grand avenue complained to the Grand avenue police yesterday that a burglary had been committed at her home. She said while she was asleep early in the morning she had been awakened by feeling a hand under her pillow. When she was thor oughly awake she says she got up but could see no signs of anyone, but that a $40 and $10 bill which she had under her pillow was gone. Later in the morning she said that Joseph Schevege, who boarded with her and who she said was her brother, complained he had lost his silver watch and gold chain. The money which she claimed to have lost also belonged to MT. Schevege, and he had given it to her for safe-keeping. Officer E. J. Reilly was sent to, the house to investigate. but could find no signs of any burglary. Later Officer < LaWler was sent with Officer Reilly to the house. He knew Mrs. Lehr and when he saw MT. Schevege he said that he was not her brother, but simply liv- ing with her and her two children. He told the woman that he knew her hus- band and that he had been compelled to leave her on account of her actions. Since her husband left she has been keeping house for Schevege, who she has introduced as her brother. After Officer Lawler had recalled some of her past career to Mrs. Lehr she broke down and confessed to having stolen the watch and chain. and of trying to steal the money. She then took the off, ficer down stairs in the cellar and going over to. the coal bin took the money watch and chain from corner of the bin where she had hidden it.
 She was placed under arrest and charged with theft. The tw little chil- dren were taken to the Organized Char ities. Mrs. Lehr's case will come up in court this morning.
