HE FOUND THE BEER.
Burglar Who Entered Topeka Avenue
Home Evidently Thirsty.

Burglars entered the residence of j.
w Jones, SIS Topeka avenue, last
night and helped themselves to an as
sortment of wearing apparel, a half
case of beer and about $1.25 in money.
The robber entered the house
through the basement. While rum
maging around there he stumbled
onto a case of beer which had been
purchased for Mrs. Jones, WHO has
been i'll. A bllshel of apples stood near
the case of drinkables. Mr.. Robber
poured out half the apples and placed
the full bottles in the basket. Then he
left his load in the cellar TO explore
further
He was undoubtedly looking for
suitable presents for his lady love for
he selected among all the things on
the first floor of the house pair OF
long gloves, two gold hatpins, a silk
jacket and a mohair skirt. Then he
opened the buffet, taking out some
napkins and leaving the tablecloths
and silver untouched. Probably
thinking that these gifts would make
him all right with his sweetheart, he
hunted around until he found a dollar
lying on the kitchen cabinet and a
quarter IN a small purse. These he
pocketed for his own use and depart
ed undisturbed by any one to gloat ov-
er his treasures and drink his beer.
The family did not discover that
they had received a. call from bur-
glar until they arose this morning, al
though Mrs. Jones heard a noise about
o'clock this morning, but thinking il
was her son, she did not investigate it.
The police have been unable to find
any clue as to who committed the rob-
berry.

CANT Be DOOGED.
Metropolitan Life Must Pay Policy on
Life of Frank Quinn.

Mary Brubaker. of Denver has Sc
cured a Judgment of $1,000 against the
Metropolitan Life Insurance company.
The suit was brought to compel the de-
PENDANT company to pay policy of
$1,000 on the life of Frank E. Quinn
Mrs. Brubaker's brother. Quinn died
of consumption IN March. 1904 and
the company refused to pay the bene-
hciary his sister. on the grounds that
Quinn had falsifed his statements
when applying for the policy.
The defense tried to show that just
before making application for the
policy. Quinn had been treated by To
peka physicians for bronchial trouble
and Indigestion, and had failed to men
ton the fact in his application. The
jury decided that if the defendant
company accepted Quinn as a risk,
after being examined by their physi-
clans, and continued to accept his pay
ments on the policy up to the time of
his death. his beneficiary was certainly
entitled to the sum for which he was
insured, together with s per cent in
terest on the thousand. dating from the
time she filed her claim in legal form.
