jewels, to the value of $1,000, were
stolen from the German colonial ex-

closing time Saturday night and Sum
day morning. There is now clew to
the robbers, and reward of 5000 has
been offered by the German imperial
commissioner for the return of all the
jewels or the arrest and conviction OF
the thieves.
The thief or thieves made almost a
clean haul of all the jewels in the ex-
hibit, leaving but one garnet behind.
AS the light about the place was very
dim, this probably was an oversight

stolen from the exhibit. The disap-
pearance of the gems was discovered

DID MRS. BAILEY SHOOT HlM7
Louis Miller Dead, in Chicago, as the
Result Of a Bullet Wound Received
in Mrs. Bailey's Room.
The Woman Arrested, Charged with
the Shooting, When She Called
mt Wesley Hospital.


Chicago. June when Mrs. Rebec-
ca Bailey called at the Wesley hospital
to see her fiance, Louis Miller. who had
been takenato the institution probably
fatally wounded by a bullet, she was
arrested on the charge ofshooting him.
At the time of her arrival the man was
making his ante-mortem statement ac-
cusing her, and the police were search
ing for her. With Mrs Bailey was
Mrs. Sophia Grabner. who was held
as witness of the shooting Mrs. Bail
ey and Miller were to have been mar
ried within week. Miller died later.
The shooting took place In Mrs.
Bailey's apartments, and it was four
hours later before the police were in
formed. The man was found by Mrs.
G. G. Snyder, who declares he bad shot
himself. Mrs. Bailey had fed from the
house
The police found the apartments de-
serted. Mrs. Bailey and Mrs. Grabner
could not be found. 1t was learned
that the woman had rented the apart
ments few days before, and had given
the name of Mrs. Miller"
The theory of the police is that Mrs.
Bailey shot Miller while in jealous
rage because of his failure to name a
definite day for the wedding ceremony.
Little is know of Mrs Baileys life
prior to the death of her husband, Gen.
S. G. Bailey, who was member of
the staff of the Wesley hospital and
lecturer at the hospital clinics. Her
maiden name was Barrett.
Although never known in Chicago by
the name of Hicks, Mrs. Bailey is said
to have last year become the wife of

The impression has gained ground in
some of the rural communities that
visitors to the Worlds fair in st. Louis,
after paying for admission to the
grounds, are required to pay an addi-
tional fee to enter each of the exhibit
palaces This is entirely erroneous.
The exhibit palaces are all a part of
the big show and are open to all who
have passed the outer gates of the fair.
The only places where additional fees
are charged are the concessions, on the
Pike, which are private enterprises,
