A BURGLAR At WORK
Eatsrea eesras OGssH's Residences last
Night.

Last night about II O'Clock,
Geo. Ogden, living at Fifth and
Penn. avenue. was awakened BY
noise at the back door Apparent
Is the screen door of the kitchen
was being opened. At hrst he
thought it was a dog pushing
against the door.
Mr.. Ogden was in the front
room. lie started toward the
kitchen and when he reached the
middle of the dining room, the
back door closed with a slam. He
still labored under the impression
that it was only dog and went
back to bed.
This morning when Mrs. Ogden
went to the kitchen she found a jar
Of fruit missing. She had recently
received a quantity Of choice can
ned fruit from Missouri. On look
ing out in the yard, she discovered
the tracks Of bare feet. They
were made by pretty big feet about
No. 8. Mr. Ogden says they
looked like white mans tracks.
Evidently the party had just enter
ed the house when Mr.. Ogden was
alarmed. He had time only to get
one Jar Of the fruit and make his
escape. There IS no trace a. tothe
idenity of the culprit.

THEY ARE BOUND OVER.
Men Charged With Picking Pockets
on Santa Fe Train.


H NJ. Jacobs and Harry Meyers
were bound over in the city court this
morning by Judge McCabe to stand
trial in the district court on the
charge of picking the pockets of
Alexander Moore. the Lawrence
banker. on a Santa Fe train in To-
peka, April 16-
Jacobs is a fat round-faced, roly-
poly looking sort of a man. He wears
spectacles and has an open counter

bury watch. He looks like mem

ton or the walking delegate of a 7.
M. G. A.
Harry Meyers looks no more like a
pickpocl1et than Jacobs. He says he
is troubled with heart failure and
sinking spells, and he looks as if he
was troubled with something. He
would pass for the exponent of new
breakfast food or travelling agent for
a drug company.
According to Bert Cowdry, a lieu
tenant of detectives on the Rock Is
land system, and for twenty years a
detective and policeman in Chicago,
these men are not mem berS of a do
cesar convention nor drummers for a
drug house. He says that they are
both gums = and that Jacobs does the
''stalling' while Meyers goes after the
short money" In other words, to
make it more clear and definite, they
are dips" To elucidate, they are
notorious pickpockets.
Mr.. Moore identified Jacobs as the
man who kneeled in the car aisle be-
fore him as he was trying to leave the
train at Topeka. Jacobs blocked his
way. A man about the size of Meyers
crowded against him half hour
later Moore found that his pocket
book and $4S in money had disap-
pared from his hip pocket. Later the
empty pocketbook was found in the
Santa Fe yards.
Cowdry was on the stand for the
prosecution. He testified that he
knew the men to be criminals. THAT

man with him go together" said

TROUBLE To GET A JURY.
Barely Enough on Duty to Fill the

The officers connected with the dis
trict court and Judge Hazen are hav-
ing trouble in securing a jury for this
term of court.
First, County Clerk Newman forgot
to draw the jury at the proper time
and the jury drawn was QUESTIONED Bile
as to its legality. Then when the jury
did assemble so many were busy plant
ing corn, potatoes and with spring
house cleaning that not enough re-
NAMED, after the excuses were made
to fill the jury box. Today II new jur-
Ors were summoned but from the be-
ginning the number dwindled. One was
dead and another was a woman Sew
eral could not be found and those who
appeared in court were busy and beg
ged to be excused. There are just p
jurors on hand in the district court to
serve next week.
So far there has been no need for a
jury for in all the criminal cases set
for trial, except one, the defendants
have pleaded guilty and County Attor-
ney Hungate has had no chance to
prosecute.
