GENTLEMAN BURGLAR
Man Who Walked in Police Station
Identified as Old Offender.

CHICAGO. Nov. 1.-THE Gentleman
Burglar Of Evanston has been unmask-
ed, Anthony Kinty". who walked into
a police station a few days ago and
said he was the man who had robbed the
residence Of Levi Eliel, was identified
yesterday as Arthur Kennedy. a man
who had abandoned his wife and sunk
from a respectable barber into a drunk
ard and cocaine iiend.
So far as can be learned the Change
of heart which he says he experienced
while attending one Of the Torrey re-
yiyal meeting a conviction that led
him to confess his crimes--has not
warmed his heart toward the wife ne
deserted. 1t has not led him even to
tell about it or to iivulge his real name.
The identification of "Kilty'' as a wife
deserter instead Of courteous and
knightly burglar, who was careful not
to waken the babies and left watch fobs
behind for sentimental reasons. was
made by Louis Ecl:stein, barber who
worked with Keanedy at one time.
Eckstein told the police he had recogni-
zed newspaper picture Of ''Kilty" as
his old friend Kennedy.
The picture was taken to Mrs Ken.
nedy and she said it was the same man.
no question Of that. But she did not
want to see him again. Kennedy was
taken to Evanston and the Eliel case
against him viii be prosecuted there.
Impressed by the prisoners seeming
penitence, Elicl has betrayed kindly
feeling toward him,said he would not
prosecute him and promised to get him
a position.

The Knox Advocate advises the peo-
pie of that place that one of its pages
will remain blank until it gets some
advertising to fill the same. This is
new tack which may have the de-
sired effect on back numbered adver-
Users.
A newspaper on the 500 line runs
an ad for. a lumber concern which
reads as follows: 1--WE will have all
kinds of lumber as soon as the 500
gets to running trains" If the firm
continues that ad for a month or
more longer the 500 will have grounds
for libel suit.
The Brinsmade Star says: We'd

account of hold-up of young man

500 depot in Brinsmade is?

pointed from that city by Governor
Burke, but was too modest to eulo-
gize himself. The Times takes pleas
ure in doing that. If Burke could
have found better looking man,
more faithful democrat, better mill
tary genius or man who could be
more at home on state occasions, he
would have been compelled to go out
side the state.
Superintendent Brown Of the Man
dan reform school has recently re-
turned from trip east where he
went to obtain an option on the strip
OF land lying in front Of the school.
The land is owned by Cincinnati par
ties, and they are 10th to put a price
on it. The state needs it for the
school and the trustees this week will
make the owners an offer for it. II
it is not accepted the state can begin
condemnation proceedings and secure
title.
The Rugby Optimist office, in addi-
ton to its other numerous trials and
tribulations. had close call recently
from being wiped out by fire. An
overheated stove in the second story
started fire between the walls. The
smoke issuing from the roof was no.
uced by Editor Boehmer from the
window Of his room, and the alarm
was promptly given. Quick and ef-
fective work on the part of the volun-
teer firemen prevented the spread of
the blaze. which was soon extinguisll-
ed. with but little damage to the
building.
