suspicious looking character was shot
at by a resident in that part of the
city, and the following night the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. Ed Wells of 1913 For
ty-ninth street was entered and rob
bed. The robber evidently knows his
business and to make his work easier
uses a powerful drug with which he
puts the occupants of the house which
he intends to rob under its influence.
At o'clock in the morning Mr.. and
Mrs. Wells awakened and experienced
a nauseating sensation. They felt
strong draft blowing over them, and
on investigation it was found that the
front door was wide open and that the
bedroom door was also open. Light
ing a lamp, they soon discovered that
$50 in money had been taken and that
numerous pieces of jewelry and other
articles had been taken by the visitor.

Jury Unable to Reach Verdict
Four In favor OF acquittal and two In
favor OF conviction was the result OF
over two hours of arguments in the
trial of Rudolph Burmeister, the meat
market proprietor who was arrested
at the behest of the Meat Cutters
union for violation of the Sunday clos
Ing laws. The basis on which the op-
posing counsels argued the interesting
case was on the question whether the
selling Of meat on the Sabbath was a
necessity or not, as this was the only
issue in the case under the Iowa stat.
nte covering labor. and trading on the
Sabbath. Mr.. Burmeister did not deny
the allegations of the Meat Cutters
union that meat had been sold in his
shop Sunday, April "a, nor did he deny
that meat had been sold on other Sun
days previous to that Sunday. The
case was fought only on the question
or the necessity of meat being sold on
that day. When the case will again
be tried has not been determined.

Entices Children from Orphanaee-
If Eliza e. Smith of Muscatine escapes
an Indictment of the grand jury during
the present term it will probably be
upon the recommendation of Superin-
tendent F. j. Sessions of the iowe
State Orphans home, upon whose in
formation he was charged with entic-
Ing and leading away his two children
from that institution on Aug. 80, 1909,
and upon the promise of Mr.. Smith
for strict compliance with the new
law in the future. From iGtimony
heard in the case in the coutof JUS
tice w. r. Names Friday. 1t appears
that Smith, after having succeeded in
getting the two boys to go with him,
had given them small sum of money
and placed them on a train in Moline,
and later deserted them. Left entirely
upon their own resources the boys,
whose ages were given as II and IL,
heat their way to Eldon, and after a
few days they found relatives near

orphans home here a few days later

soul of Mr.. Devine was humbled, but
not crushed.
He had tried to demonstrate to Mr..
Hewington that his estimate of Cherub
Devine as one of the socially unfit was
a mistaken judgment. But evidently
he had demonstrated nothing of the
kind. The Hewingtons had given him
no chance to show what he could do
in that line. Well, should he quit
