WOMAN DESTITUTE, SAYS SHE

Mrs. Bertha Kraemer, 1146 East

find her husband. r. A. Kraemer, who
she says left November l6 and has not
been heard of since. Mrs. Kraemer Is
i'll and without means, yet shares her
money with her sister and Mrs Nora
Dick and the child Of the latter.
Kraemer, who before his disappear
ance was a conductor on the Long
Beach electric line, Is described by his
wife as a handsome man, fond of the
admiration of women friends.
Mrs. Kraemer was charged by Henry
Dick with having hypnotized his wife
In the trial of the suit the
latter brought a few months ago
for maintenance. The charge was
not proved, however, and since
that time Mrs. Dick has been a
guest at Mrs. Kraemer's home. Both
women keep closely within doors and
are afraid to go out because they say
their lives have been threatened by the
men who were their husbands. Mrs.
kraemer says she has lived in daily
terror of being shot for months past
THE night my husband left he said
I am going to Dick and I'll see If we
can't down you | do not want q di-
vorce; that is nothing to me, but do
want justice, and that man should be
made to suffer for the way he has
wronged me-"

"Glory to God In the Highest and on Earth Peace,
Good Will Toward Men" is the Message
Heraded by Catholic and Epis-
cOpalian Ministers

ing. 1t brought out the wlckedness OF
sin but could do nothing for him, be-
cause its laws were not perfect, its
sacrifices had i'm themselves no power
of justification. The whole old law was
only n figure of the new. 1t directed
the hopes of mankind to the Redeemer
who was to come. 1t awakened in
mankind an ardent longing for him and
was a preparation for his coming
There was, therefore, in the old law
itself, no help and even If it did good
to mankind at all, it was through the
merits of the expected Messiah.
The priest and Bevite passed him
by, but it remained for the Good Sa-
maritan, who represented Christ, to
bring relief and this he did by relieving
the sufferings of his soul. He removes
the darkness of error by his divine
revelaton the weakness of our will
by his means of grace and the wrath
of God by his redemption. He restored
peace and made man tranquil once
more, a son and friend of God. This
is what the birth of Christ on Christ
mas day means. 1t brings peace with
God neighbors and self"

part:
MANY an ambitious man today seeks
satisfaction in power; many a lustful
man would quench the flame of his
passion in pleasure; man of a higher

carried away by the same hope of sat
iafaction. The intellectual wants
knowledge, deluded by the same ex-
pectation of appeasing the unruly de-
sires of the heart in pleasure and
power.

Persians collected vast multitudes of
men under one master, each in turn
seeming to be sure of attaining the
control of the world The Greeks. un-
der the great Alexander, brought the
project to fuller development, but
Providence left the work to Rome
With her came the unifying principle.
Power was Rome's God and every Ro-
man deified that power in Caesar.

THINKS BANDITS WERE HURT
Motornan of Pasadena Car Says
They We're Thrown From Car

Detectives employed by the Pacific
Electric railway visited Pasadena to-
day, examining persons who were
robbed on the car last night. In almost
every case clear descriptions of the
two robbers were given. A new feature
of the hold-up was discovered here
today, which may aid the officers in
their search for the two desperadoes.
After the men ordered the motorman
to slow up for them to get off the car
they went the whole length of the car,
to the rear before alighting. Just as
they were stepping off the motorman
suddenly put on speed, and as the car
jumped one. at least, of the men was
seen to fall headlong. 1t is thought
the second also sprawled, and now the
officers are looking for men with their
faces scratched and bruised.
George MeGregor, a high school
student, who lost $40 in money and a
watch worth as much, seems to have
been sipgularly unfortunate, since the
cash was the money I ceived from
subscriptions and advertising of the

Gregor is the business manager.

SCOTT ALIVE; WRITES LETTER
RoI King Hears From Death Valley
Miner, Who Says He Will Re-
turn Here January IS

"Scotty" has been heard from again
and has at least enough life left in him
to write letter to Rol King and one
to his wife. His friends have never
given up hope of his safe return to Los
Angeles since they heard the story of
the mule, Slim and his bullet rid
died and bloody blanket, for they have
a belief that "Scotty" has a charmed
life.
King expressed himself as much re-
lieved to hear that the miner was not
dead and said that "Scotty" declares
he will return to Los Angeles about
the middle of January If somebody does
not "get" him before that time. From
the tone of the letter King says he
thinks that Scott has been wounded.
The letter that he wrote is dated De-
cember 19 and was carried to Rhyolite
near Bullfrog by q special messenger.

Gang Is Being Watched
Closely

But little progress was made yester-
day In tracing the bandits who held
up outbound Pacific Electric car No
275 near Rosedale station en- the "short
line" Sunday night and robbed the pas
sengers of $500 In money and valuables
Though the criminals were supposed
to have been seen at the junction OF
the Pasadena and the Monrovia lines
by a motorman of the Monrovia car q
short time after the holdup occurred,
no trace of the men could be found by
detectives yesterday
Most of the time yesterday was spent
by the detectives in interviewing the
passengers of the car in order to gain
as perfect a description of the men as
possible. Some of the plain clothes
police were detailed to run down clues
but no new trail of the criminals has
been discovered and all the old ones
that have been followed have proved
wrong.
In charge OF force of men Deputy
Sheriff Franklin has been leading the
search on behalf of the county officers.
AS the work on the case progresses
the officers become more and more con-
vinced that the men who held up the
Pasadena car are members of the gang
which planned to rob three jewelry
stores Friday night and six postoffice
sub-stations on Saturday night and
were frustrated by the police guard es-
tablished
Watching Gang
Those members of the gang that re-
main in the city are closely watched by
both city and county officers. In speak,
ing of the case last evening the Of
ficers said that there was bare chance
that the car bandits were not a part
of the gang from the east.
Police officers report the same sort
Of success as do the county officers.
They admit having numerous weak
clues but not a trace gives hope Of
being the one that will lead to the ar
rest Of the robbers. All Of the most
likely clues were traced down by the
most competent men on the force yes
terday.
One important fact in possession of
the officers and from which they ex-
pect successful developments, is a clue
of two men working San Francisco
way that answers well the description
of the robbers obtained by the police
and sheriff's officers.
An officer of the local force is follow
ing the clue step by step and every
hour 1t is expected that he will re-
port success and make an arrest. Ad-
cording to the information received
last evening it is the plan OF the local
police to have the officer follow the
criminals for several days and make

Greatness of Rome
Rome had reached the acme OF power

But ever 1t fell short of successful is

deemer to come and of future happi-

had made their several contributions
and each failed i'm turn.
God checked these wanderings of his
children when he made flesh and dwelt
among us, He came to us under a
form that takes our hearts captive, for
nothing I'm human life makes us so
much at home as the babe In the crib
and the Christmas message is: Ye
shall find the babe wrapped In swad-
ding clothes and lying in a lnanger.
Peace to men and good will Is the mes

love and receive him.
He came with a spiritual kingdom,

down to the sour ce of all. Every law

master of hearts who lifts men up, to e

Message Of the Crib
"The message of the crib to the poor,
the rich, the sorrowful and sinwait-
ing world" was the topic Of Rev. J. J.

Christmas service. He spoke of the
meaning of the day for good Will and
family reunions. He said in part
= when The angels song echoed
around the world If it's spirit could but
be kept and nations, statesmen, priests
and kings submit to its sway all tho
world would beg the new born child
that it might be kept in His peace
and love.
But lighted homes. decorated
churches and festive gatherings are
but symbols of far deeper realities. The
echoes of the angels song fioated down
to us from heaven, are but reflections
of the glory which the heavens opened
to disclose
Gods ways are unlike the noisy
ways of men. Mems little schemes are
launched with tumult and noise. God
works in silence, and so the new horn
babe came to us in silence and dark
ness. He was crowded into the stall
at Bethlehem out of the humble vii
lage inn and all we who would catch
the true meaning of Christmas must
come to the cradle of the cattle shed
and listen there to the message which
speaks to the poor, rich, sorrowful and

way EldNC SoU0 OOuAU
Some of the authorities hold the idea
that the robbers went to San Diego
that they might make their escape
over the Mexcan border. Whether this
be true or not will be known soon. The
best officers of the southern city are
working on the case.
Probably the clue that gives the Of
hcers of the sheriffs force the most
hope and is at the present the most
likely to develop into the correct one
is that the two men have separated
and are now hiding in small towns
near Los Angeles.
In the meantime, while the most of
the attention is being devoted by the
police and county officers to tracing
down clues, the close watch kept on the
clever gang that has been in the city
for the past three weeks is at any mo-
ment likely to give rise to startling
developments, say the police.

SECRETARY SHAW TELLS HARD WARE MEN AS SHIPPERS SE- CURING REBATES THAT THEIR DAYS ARE NUMBERED.

l Washington November 1O.-A joint | banquet attended by about 400 delegates at the New Willard hotel tonight termi- | mated the meetings of the National Hard ware association and the American Hard ware Manufacturers association, which have been in progress for the past three l days. Toasts were responded to as fol- lows:
 Transportation" Representative Theo- dore E. Burton of Ohio, chairman of the committee on rivers and harbors; De partment of Commerce and Its Relation to Business Development" James R. Garfield, chief of the bureau of corpora tions, department of commerce; Foreign Opportunities for American Trade" Os- car P. Austin, chief of the bureau of statistics, department of commerce and labor.
 Addresses were also made by Secretary Shaw and Director of the Mint Roberts. Several of the speakers touched upon the question of the regulation Of freight rates by some body created by Con- gross. Secretary Shaw declared that the evil of freight rebates was not alone with the transportation company, but with shippers as well. How to cope with both" he said, Was a question that is puzzling the government. The question would soon dissolve and the evil be abolished The rebate evil ought to stop, and will have to stop. l want to say right here to you beneficiaries Qaughter), that your days are numbered. Of course, you all smile with an easy conscience l once told a convention of bankers that they ought to pay interest on their deposits, and they all laughed, too.
 But now as to rebates My own idea about rebates is this: The rebate must stop, and the railroad is not the only sin ner in the case. Such action must be taken by legislation and the enforcement of that legislation as will apply the rem edy to both the beneficiary and the rail- roads. It is a great and vital evil of our commercial system, and I am sure that every person engaged legtimately in the business of shipping or hauling Will agree with those who are seeking relief.
 Representative Burton expressed the opinion that it would be impossible Tor any commission to enter upon the ques- ton of the regulation of freight rates without entering upon field that is ab- solutely impossible. MT. Burton believed that other things ought to be done and general principles laid down with view to remedying the evils complained of be- fore a commission to deal with rate making is established.
