OF course it would be nice if Nan"
Patterson would join the Salvation
army or become trained nurse and
spend all the rest of her life doing
good for others, but let us pause for
for a hypothetical question, Mr.. Nor
alizer: If you had been accused of a
serious crime. if your old father had
spent all his money and nortgaged his
home to get you free, and II after your
release an opportunity came by which
you could earn honestly $4,000 within
few months what would you do?
The chances are that you would close
with the offer even if it did involve
SO unlovely a process as that of cash
ing in, notoriety. The chances are that
"Nan" will.

the jewelry store of D. Lande, 4S2 West

The robbery took place as Mr.. Lande,
who was alone in the store, was pre-
pairing to close for the night. The plan
employed was that used few weeks
| ago in similar case. Thrusting All
| iron bar thru the handles of the front
door, the men effectually prevented in
| reference on the part of the proprie-
| tor. One of them then smashed the
glass in a show window with stone.
The first blow proving insufficient, he
| struck the glass again, making a large
opening.
Hold off Crowd.
| Across the street is the Enterprise
restaurant, which was we'll filled with
customers. These were attracted by
| the crash, as were many pedestrians.
Two of the robbers held the citizens
at bay while the others seized four
trays of jewels from the window.
! Lande himself was behind counter
near the window, but was unarmed.
He attempted to get to telephone in
the rear, but the display of weapons
by the robbers deferred him.
/! Lande was about to close the store,
when at the window in front of him
man appeared. The man pointed
revolver at him and by his motions
warned Lande not to move. An in
stant later second man stepped up
and bar was slipped thru the door
handle.
Weapons All Around.
| AS the blows were struck against
the window Lande dropped to the floor
and crawled to the opposite side of the
store in an attempt to reach a tele-
phone. He got behind the counter, bat
at that window another man stood, re-
yolver in hand. Lande made no fur :
ther attempt to seek aid.
In the meantime the robbers at the
east window were taking out the trays
of diamonds. Persons across the street
heard the noise of the breaking OF
glass, and one man, standing IN front
/ of a saloon, shouted for the pollce.

RUSSIAN POLAND
All Doubt. About the Genuine
ness Of the Cars Inten-
tions Is Removed
FREEDOM FOR THE PEASANTS
Restrictive Laws Have Been Abolish
ed by Rescript Just Issued by EN-
sror Nicholas and Catholic Peasants
Are Allowed to Acquire Land by
Purchase.

little room for Skepticism as to the
genuineness of the broad policy of
imperial reform, after the remarkable
steps sanctioned by Emperor Nicholas
in the imperial rescript, issued yes
,terday, modifying the restrictive de-
crees in nine of the western govern-
ments of Russia and giving the Poles
greater freedom for acquiring farming
lands and purchasing landed proper
ties and industrial premises and Civ
ing permission to introduce Polish ana
Lithuanian languages In primary and
secondary schools where the majority
of the inhabitants are nom Russian.
Almost at one sweep the whole burden
of the vexatious restrictive laws in
Poland and Baltic provinces have been
removed and the privileges for which
the natives have been fighting Tor
wears are restored, assemblies Of the
Polish mobiles are re-established and
all harsh administrative measures In
troduced at the time the policy Of re-
action and classification are abolished
unless later, for purposes Of state after
recommendation of the council of state
they receive imperial sanction. AS
natural sequence of the freedom Of re-
ligion the oppressive prohibition Of
purchase Of land by Catholic peasants
is abolished. In effect the measures
sanctioned amount to entire reversal
Of the Russian policy in the ancient
Poland and Baltic provinces.
