WOMAN Is A THIEF
Mrs. Anna Bleaker Steals Cigars by
Wholesale at Market Square Res
taurant, Where Employed.
HIDES THEM AWAY IN A TRUNK
Where They Are Found by an Officer
Who Visits Her Today-Held
to the Grand Jury

Anna Bleaker came to Rock Island
one week ago from Muscatine and Sc
cured employment as a waiter at the
restaurant conducted by J. L. Wynes,
on the east side of Market square.
Her husband accompanied her and
they rented two living rooms on FIT
teenth street between Third and
Fourth avenues.
Yesterday Mr.. Wynes noted that his
cigar stock was disappearing at a
rate that did not correspond with the
cash register receipts. He turned
sleuth, but was not able to catch any
one in the act of carrying off the cigars
by wholesale, but he satisfied himself
that his new waitress probably could
throw some light on the mystery.
More cigars were missing from the
case when Mr.. Wynes arrived at the
restaurant this morning. He called
in Officer Henry Thode and explained
to him the circumstances. The police
man visited the woman at her lodgings
on Fifteenth street. At first she mani
even be suspected. but when the Off
Ger told her he would have to have
look at the inside of her trunk she
weakened and confessed.
Trunk Lock IL Broken.
But her husband, wno she said was
out looking for work, carried the key.
and she said she did not know how the
trunk was to be opened unless the
lock was broken. Thode said he was
there to see the inside of the trunk,
and if she did not have the key she
would have to devise some other means
of opening it.
The woman went down stairs and pro-
cured a hammer, which she handed
over to the officer, and told him TO go
after the lock. He did so. There were
four boxes of cigars tucked away in
the trunk for hubby.
Mrs. Bleaker was brought to police
headquarters. where a charge of lar
ceny was lodged against her by Mr..
| Wynes. She was held to the grand
jury in the sum of 500. - She could
not furnish security and was locked
up in the county Jail.
Arrested for Assembling Wife.
! Henry Stewart was before MagiS-
trate Johnson last evening for assault
| ing his wife. Stewart had been drink
ing. He asked for a continuance of
the hearing to tomorrow afternoon,
when he promises to have witnesses
to disprove the charge of his wife.
The continuance was allowed, and Ste
Wart bonded $50 to secure his appear

slim.

Mm. Kirmse, amember of the bridge
gang working near Littleport, was taken
suddenly i'll on Thursday night with
cramps and a kind of cholera. His case
was so severe that he had to have the
members of the crew wait upon him,
and Mr.. Clifford was called and consult
ed. He told them he had a medicine in
the form of Chamberlain's Collie, Chol-
era and Diarrhoea Remedy that he
thought wouid help him out, and ac-
cordingly several doses were admins
tered, with the result that the fellow
was able to be around next day. The
