Chicken at Jail.

Al the county Jail all the forbidden
rations were served and the prisoners
for once were not subject to the usual
jail restrictions. Their dinner consisted
of roast chicken with dressing, cram
berry sauce, celery, mashed potatoes
with brown gravy, apple pie and tea
with cream and sugar.
The preparations of Mrs. r. E. Pick
EFT, the police matron, to give the in
mates of the city Jail an excellent din
ner were so well carried out that those
whose sentence expired in the morning
positively refused to leave Jail until
after they had eaten of the meal, the
aroma of which had pleasantly assailed
their nostrils. To those whose misfor-
tune. or perhaps it was good fortune,
it was to be behind the bars of the city
jail. was served roast pork, mashed po-
tatoes with brown gravy, celery, mlnce
pie and English plum pudding with
sauce.

ROYAL SPREADS
+. FOR UNFORTUNATE
Salvation Army Feeds 700 and
Sends Out $50
Baskets.
PRISONERS WELL TREATED
RARE PROGRAM FOR PENITEN-
TIARY INMATES.

The Salvation Army yesterday won a
decisive victory in a short but lively
battle with hunger. Seven hundred de-
termined looking men, women and chill
dren appeared at the battlefield at
Eastmans hall, S2Sk State street, yes
terday, eager for the fray. Everyone
of the 700 had carried on for some time
skirmish fighting with the enemy and
on many occasions were all but con-
quered by the persistent foe. due chiefly
to the lack Of proper ammunition. The
ammunition furnished by the Salvation
Army follows:
Turkey. cranberry sauce.
Roast beef, gravy.
Chicken, duck, roast mutton.
Potatoes, turnips, corn, string beans,
Pork and beans,
Coffee, bread and butter,
Pies. nuts.
Under a steady fire directed by ex-
perienced warriors the enemy was
quickly put to rout. The only difficulty
experienced was caused by the over
ze3lousness of some of those who raj
lied to the call to combat.
Everyone was eager to get on the fir
ing line and it was with Considera bic
difficulty that the officers persuaded the
recruits to wait until the women and
children had satisfied their vengeance
that the men might be saved for the
reserve force.
Major A. Harris, divisional officer of
the Salvation Army, was field marshal.
Aides on his personal staff were Cap
tains Case and TRULY of Denver, Adju-
tant Plumstead and wife of Salt Lake,
Lieutenant Kinney of Salt Lake and
Lieutenant Julia Williams of Silverton,
Colo. Under the careful supervision of
these officers every hungry person out
of jail was made happy.
Baskets Sent to Poor.
In addition to the dinner served at
the hall go heavily laden baskets were
sent out to the homes of the poor. There
are still some baskets left which will
be kept as emergency baskets for those
who were overlooked. The Salvation
Army counted on 500 guests, but fortu-
nately the supplies were sufficient to
care for the extra 200.
OF those in Jail the inmates of the
state penitentiary were by all odds the
most fortunate. Not only were they
served with a sumptuOus Thanksgiving
dinner, but they were also entertained
in a manner that would tempt a fugi-
tive from justice to surrender himself
that he might be present. The enter
ment was given by some of the best
amateur talent in the city, under the di-
rection of Miss Nora Gleason. For two
solid hours the convicts at the peuiten-
tiary rolled about i'm their seats in the
chapel and laughed till they lost their
breath at the jokes and the stories of
the entertainers.

Burglar Ignored Other Arti-
CIeS Of Value at Home
of A. c. WiVeI
ENTERED HOUSE DURING
ABSENCE OF FAMILY

A burglar with a scent for greenhacks
that could have been nothing less than
spirituahstic, entered the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. A. c. Wlvol No. SOC West Eleventh
street, during their absence sometime be-
fore o'clock last night. and ignoring
many articles Of value, got away with
five dollars that had been carefully placed
in a stone jar, deposited in a tin can. that
had been in its turn snugly hidden AWAY
In a little shelf in an almost totally dark
eellarway.
Entrance was affected through a win
dow facing the side alleyway The VIM
dow. which was not locked. was pushed
down from the top. and the inside shut
ters were pried open evidently with a
pen knife. II Is believed that the offender
was one who was acquainted with the
daily life of Mr.. and Mrs. Wivel, and ar
ranged his plans accordingly.
During Family's Absence.
Mr.. Wivei is the proprietor OF shoe
store at Third and Market streets, and
from o'clock in the afternoon until the
closing time at o'clock he IS generally
assisted by his wife. when the house Is
left alone It Is probable that the burg
lar was acquainted with her custom and
forced an entrance during her absence
yesterday. She left at the usual time yes
terday afternoon 90 go to the store after
having locked the house and returned
with her husband about o'clock.
The first evidence that the house Had
been entered was the opened kitchen and
cellar doors, and the opened cupboard in
the kitchen. Roscoe Baylis. next door
neighbor was summoned and a search re-
vealed further evidence Of the burglary.
I'm the kitchen and in the dining room
the lids had been taken Off the china. sill
verware and tinware ia an evident search
for money. but on the lower floor moth
ing else had been disturbed. On the upper
floor clothes had been taken from the
spare bedroom and placed on the bed in
the couples room. while the bureau IN
their room had been ransacked ana the
contents Of the drawers scattered over
the floor The pile Of clothes on the bed
Indicated that the burglar had Intended to
take them. but was frightened away.
Finally Found creenbaek.
The finding Of the bill in the ceilarway
was evidently the result OF the burglars
assiduity In carefully opening the lid OF
every piece Of china, silverware or tim
ware that he could place his hands on
Even the loft had been explored. Although
there were many valuable trinizets cloth.
ing and .silverware in the house nothinr
was taken but the five dollar bin.
The robbery makes Mr. Wivers second

tanning $50 was stolen. A number Of years
ago while the couple were living at Sixth
