SOCIETY PET A THIEF.
Handsome Warren Percy Has Been
Ordered Out Of Superior; Wis.

SUPERIOR, Wis, June S.-Warren
Percy, handsome, brilliant, a favorite
in polite society here in the earstwhile,
has fallen from grace. His friends
have been startled with the news that
he has confessed to daring robbery.
Not only that, it was from the woman
in whose home he had often been an
honored guest that he stole jewels and
money of the value of $500.
Last year young Superior attorney,
Howard D. Bailey, went to Benning-
ton, VT, and married. He returned
nome with his wife. One day last fall
she read in a local paper an item that
Warren Percy of Bennington had come
to the head of the lakes on a boat, was
taken ill and sent to hospital at Du-
luth. Mrs. Bailey knew the Percy
family, and she at once looked up the
young man, ill and friendless. Flowers
and delicacies were his portion from
that day.
When he left the hospital he came to
Superior and his newly found friends
soon introduced him into society and
in business circles. Percy's Apollo
like face and form quickly made MIN
a favorite. At the home of Mrs. Will
liam Wilson and daughter, Bessie, he
was frequent caller. Such was his
intimacy there that he was treated
almost as a member of the family and
soon knew the secrets of the houshold,
where the latchkey was kept and
where the jewels and money.
One night last week the mother and
daughter went to the theatre, leaving
the house locked and the latchkey in
its accustomed place. When they re-
turned the jewel box and $40 in cash
were gone. Mrs. Wilson suspected
Percy, but the young man was loud in
mis- protestations and much offended
that his benefactors should suspect
him. Mrs. Wilson felt certain, and af-
ter telling Percy he mad been detected
called in the police.
When he reached the cell he wilted
and offered restitution of the jewels
and $40-all he had left-for his lib
erty The women were loath to make
a scandal, and after the valuables were
restored they refused to prosecute.
The police agreed to release Percy if
he would quit the city at once, and he
vanished. Until today mis- social and
business friends have been wondering
why and where he went.

GRASSES, GRAINS AND vEGE-
TABLES MADE GOOD SHOW.
ING DURING WEEK
Fall Wheat Is Heading Out in Fine
Condition, But Is Growing Rank
in Some Localities.

According to the general concensus
Of reports, the past week was the best
growing one Of the season. For the
most part the nights, as we'll as the
quent copious rains, which were un-
usually heavy in many localities, thor
oughly soaking the soil. They were of
great benefit, especially on the uplands,
to all grains, grasses and vegetables.
Fall wheat is heading out in fine
condition, but in some localities it is
rank in growth, rendering it very liable
to lodge in heavy rains or winds. The
spring wheat is growing luxuriantly,
we'll stooled, has a good color, and is
now sin the boot" There is enough
moisture now present in the soil of
the eastern counties to mature an
abundant wheat crop. The only un-
certainty lies in the character of the
weather during the blooming and fill
ing stages. Should there be an alb
sence of hot winds, a splendid crop Of
wheat will be matured.
Oats have progressed rapidly. On
lowlands, like the Olympia and Swim
omish flats, there has been little too
much moisture. Potatoes and other
vegetables are now growing very fast
as a result of warmth and moisture.
Corn is coming up we'll. Hops are
said to be uneven; many hills missing.
Pastures and meadows are now lux
uriant. In some localities the clover
crop will be short, where it was badly
killed out by drought last year.
