For the second time within week the
police were called yesterday TO the home
of Mrs. Mary Powers. at No. 4l6 South

burglar and how she had routed him by
smashing her parasol over his head
Her aunt at once proclaimed her
heroine, and folded her in her arms.
When Mrs Powers returned home
yesterday she again found everything
in confusion. The same burglar, ac-
cording to Alice, had returned TO the
house and had packed UP the family
besides rifiing bureau draw

girl detected him, and this time she
smashed an umbrella over his head
Now Mrs Powers grew suspicious She

the burglar stories so that she might be
looked upon as a heroine.

"Old Guard" Leader Talks.

Many friends of Mr.. Roosevelt will

people for their approval Would they
get it if they insulted the Vice-Presf-

The "old guard" is desperate. That

Rooseveit's Name.
WOODRUFF SOON TO BE HERE
Both Sides Announce Intention
of Going Into the Prl-

Delegates.

Battle over the direct primary reform
without hope of compromise is the de-
cision of leaders of Progressive and "old
guard factions of the Republican party
in this state Both sides announced yes
terday that they would go into the pri-
nlaries with the hope of electing dele
gates to the state convention favorable
to their end of the controversy. both
declared that they would take the fight
through the state convention. Both
sides said they hoped to win. both sides
admitted that It would be a mighty hard
fight.
"Old guard" leaders went Just one step
further than the Progressives. Some of
them said that if they were whipped in
this. the fight Of their lives. it would
mean that they would retire from ac-
tivity in the party. Under this and
similar remarks ran the implication that
victory for the Progressives at the con-
vention could come only under circum-
stances such that most of the 'old
guard would have to "retire''-they
didn't say knife the ticket-certainly
that a Progressive victory would spell
defeat for the Republican ticket.
old guard leaders in town last night
predicted with certainty that Mr.. Sher-
mans name would go before the state
convention and with much show Of as
surance that he would be elected tempo
rary chairman. The procedure viii be
that State Chairman Woodruff, on call
ing the convention to order, Will an
nounce that the state committee has
chosen the Vice-President for temporary
chairman. Unless some delegate pro-
poses another name as substitute there
will be no rollcall. If a substitute nomi-
nation be made, a rollcall will be taken
and the fight to control the convention
be begun.
