The problem was made the subject
of spirited discussion at the meet

"The husbands of these women
work nine hours and are fighting for
an eight hour day." said Mrs. Her

the settlement, "and it is not fair
that the women should have to work
sixteen or eighteen hours. We do
not expect the man to come home at
night and spend the evening doing

to have him do some things, just to

TAKE ADVANTAGE OF HOUSE
OWNERS ABSENCE AT A
PARTY.
A MOST DARING ROBBERY
Believed Plumber Was Carried Away
In Suit Cases and Paste
Board Boxes.

Chicago, Feb. Mrs. Thomas G..
Gray was attending card party at
the home of a friend Wednesday aft
ernoon, when two neatly gowned wo-
men burglars, posing as her sisters,
entered her apartments at 1856 Hum
boldt boulevard and carried away
clothing, jewelry, and silverware val
ued at $1,000. Entrance to the
place was gained by the use of skel-
eton keys, and many Of the gowns
which the marauders could not carry
with them were torn to shreds.
Mrs. Gray left her home with a
friend shortly after 2 o'clock and
half an hour later the telephone bell
rang. Ruth Brady, z years old, who
lives with her parents across the hall
heard this and soon afterward, she
asserts, two women appeared and be-
gan ringing the doorbell. The child
told them there was no one at home,
but they responded that they were
Mrs. Gray's sisters and would wait
| for her eturn.
Almost an hour after that when
the child returned to the hallway,
she saw the two women inside the
rooms, but supposing that Mrs. Gray
had returned and admitted them she
made no mention of the fact to her
mother. 1t was not until 5 o'clock
when Mrs. Gray returned, that the
burglary was discovered. The wo
men were gone.
Inside the apartments everything
was in disorder. Wardrobes were
disarranged, and it was evident that
a thorough and painstaking search
| of the place had been made.
| A pir of old shoes was found il
the middle of the floor and two pair:
Of new ones which had belonged t.
Mrs. Gray were missing. The din
ing room table was piled high Will
clothing, which had been torn to piec
es by the women. Among the arti
cles taken were:
81 Opera coat, 5000.
Il Pair of opera glasses, SIS.
Three tea gowns, $500.
: Diamond stick pin and studs, SIS.
Mink lined overcoat, $3.50.

New York, Feb. Am investiga-

large coal companies with the city

issued by Mayor Mcclellan. This
step was taken by the mayor as a re-

the board were about 81 per ton
higher than the price chartered to
individuals. The bids were 1854 and

1t will seem rather strange to the
hundreds of faithful patrons of the
New Phillips next week to have no
vaudeville presented them at this
house, but Manager Murray believes
that in the Orpheum Stock Company
which will play at popular prices, he
has secured talent that will please
the public and prove a good financial
investment. The matinee and to-
nights performance will conclude
the excellent vaudeville bill now
running.
At the Gennett.
Manager Swisher has prepared an
unusually strong bill for presenta-
ton at the Gennett next week. The
bill will be put on every afternoon
and evening throughout the week.
The acts come highly recommended

there were only hundred ordained
