BURGLARS IN BOSTON STORE
Waterman Gets Excited and Turns in Both
Police and Firs Alarms.
ROBBERS ESCAPE WITHOUT ANY PlUNDEF
one Of Them Leaves old Pair Of shoe
witch He Evidently Intended
to Exchange for
New Pair.

The Boston store was entered last night
by two burglars. who had succeeded In
filling two suit cases with plumber before
being discovered by the Waterman. They
ran away without the stolen property. At
11:l5 as Waterman J. Kasper was making
his rounds he hoard a noise as he was
coming up the stairs to the fourth floor.
He located the sound as well as he could
and shouted who's there" Then he
turned on his light and saw one man near
the window which looks into the new
Hayden building just west of the Brandeis
store. As he turned on the light he heard
some one behind him say, shoot him,
there" This voice was at the foot of the
stairs he had Just climbed.
Thinking the place was too dangerous.
the Waterman swung himself over the
banisters and dropped to the floor below.
He heard the second man run up the stairs
as he was going to turn in the alarm. He
found the A. d. T. box, but instead OF
giving the police alarm he gave the fire
alarm. The department responded, but
the noise and confusion gave the burglars
time to get away. After turning in the
fire alarm the Waterman called up the
police and all the available men responded.
The Waterman could do little until the
police arrived, for he had given his gun
to the second watchman who is guarding
the bank in the new blHldng.
RObber Leaves shoes.
When the police arrived thorough
search was made On the fourth floor they
found two suit cases which had been set
outside the window on the scaffolding of
the new Hayden building. These each held
a suit of clothes an extra pair Of pants
and an overcoat one case contained a
pair Of new shoes. Near the window the
police found a second pair of new shoes
and also an old pair 1t is thought that
| one of the men was in the act of changing
his old shoes for the new ones when the
watchman discovered them. At all events,
! he left both pair on the floor. This pair
of shoes, the suit cases and the open
! window are the only clues the police have
to go on. The shoes were pretty well worn
and the right one has several cuts over
the toes and the upper had been worn
through in several places. The left one
was in pretty good shape.
1t is not thought the burglars got away
with anything Of great value, but this will
| not be positively known until the store
| opens this morning Another window, one
| in the new part, was found half way open
! but this was thought to have no sgnih-
| canoe in the case, as Waterman had been
! on duty there all the evening.

some OF those who have taken il sag
that it is Il panacea for all chronic all

complicated about the treatment ALI
that is required OF the patient is that
he shall stand i'll the open, with his
body bare OF all clothing, and lei the
falling rain pour on him. The scnsa-
ton is said to be very agreeable Those
who have tried the new treatment as
sert that the rain falling upon the bare
body invieoratcs the whole system and
Is especially strengthening to the
