FIVE YEARS
FOR KIDNAPPER

David Burns was convicted in the
Baltimore Criminal Court yesterday of
kidnapping Harry BerlIovitch, 10 years
old. on December 26, 1906, and was
sentenced by Judge Dobler to five
years in the penitentiary.
The testimony showed that Burns
met the little fellow in a lunchroom
and began talking to him. A promise
to take the boy to his father in Wash
ington induced him TO accompany
Burns. After keeping the boy for
two days in the neighborhood Of Back
River. Burns took him to Wilmington
and then to Philadelphia
1t is thought that the sojourn at
Back River was for the purpose of
enabling Burns to become acquainted
with the boy. They went from Will
mington to Philadelphia on a coal
train. and in Philadelphia the boy was
used by Burns to watch outside houses
which the man entered for the pur-
pose of robbery.
Burns is said to be a hall thief. He
was arrested in Philadelphia for steal
ing an overcoat from a hallrack. and
that led to the return of the boy to
Baltimore. The only defense Of Burns
was that he intended taking the boy
to his father in Washington.

was the express, No. 52l. and in order
to clear the track the accommodation
started to back into siding. It was
not quick enough, however, and the
engine Of the express bore down upon
it with a speed that made a collision
certain.

on the air brake. there was a delay
Of a second or so as the train trembled
with the force of the brakes. then the
crash came. That slight delay, how

About his neck in summer is a turn
down collar. which is a high, stin
fence of eight thiclSnesses of starched
linen. This fits closely. leaving him
unable to turn his head without great
effort. Imbedded in this and tied in
front in a thick. uncomf ortable bunch
is a tie of heavy cotton or silk, re-
enforced with Innings of quilted canton

His shirt has a stiff. unyielding
front. of the firmness Of a priests
breastplate. This must be donned with
dexteritv and worn with care. lest it
break or bend. His waistcoat is made
of heavy woollen cloth. and in summer
he wears one of heavier. thicker and
warmer duck or cheviot. This warmth
and thickness. however, are only in
front. where nature has already pro-
tected the lungs and heart. At his
back. where protection is required
against draught or chill. the waistcoai
is of thin muslin.
His coat is built similarly, the fronts
being re-enforced with lapels Of many
Innings.
About his waist he buckles a belt SC
tignHy as to Interfere with the breath

purpose.
For this reason he must wear sus'
penders, which are probably the mos

He carries a stick which has no pre-
tence to use or beauty.
He has dozens of pockets into which
he never puts anything.
He has buttons which button moth

He has strange jewelry of clums,

must be lost and hunted for.
He has rings on his fingers, pins II
