the young woman who had been with

she was still unconscious. An elderly
aunt had appeared, a gaunt person in
black, who sat around like a buzzard
on a fence, according to Mcknight,
and wept, in a mixed figure, into a
damp handkerchief.
On the last day of my imprisonment

day, and to play a game of double soil

BLACKBOARD, but he's a good detective,
He could make his fortune as a game
dog. What's he doing?"
Mcknight put down his cards, and
rising, went to the window. AS he
held the curtain back his customary
grin looked a little forced.
ITO tell you the truth, Lollie," he
said, "for the last two days he has
been watching a well-known Washing

We listened together to Mrs. Klop-

she came heavily up the stairs. She

from a pocket account-book, and on it

MRS. RUSSELL SAGE'S
LETTERS CAREFULLY
CULLED BY SECRETARY
Many Letters Are Left at Postotnce
to Be Returned or Sent to
Washington to Be
Destroyed

PASADENA, March 24.-That Mrs:
Russell sage fails to have much mail
addressed to her removed from the
postoffice was learned today. 1t IS
evident that she accepts letters only
from persons she wishes to and that
she has some understanding with such.
The culling of desired letters from
the questionable is made by Mrs
Sage's secretary. He goes to the post
office and carefully scans the large
amount of mail that daily comes for
Mrs. Sage. BY the manner in which
he scrutinizes each and takes an oc-
casionaF one it is evident these letters
bear some mark of identification. All
other letters are returned to the office
Unless they bear the proper return ad-
dress they will in time go to the dead
letter office and be destroyed.

treatment Of mail is that of John D.

decision in two of the cases is final.
In the third the brain was so badly
crushed IN killing the animal that an
examination could not be made, al
though portions of the brain were in
iected into a rabbit. No symptoms
have developed.
The last dog. which was supposed to
be mad, terribly bit two children. They

HOLDUP DUO TRY
ANOTHER ROBBERY
Attempt Second Crime In Two Days
and Said to Be Same Men Whose
Deeds Caused Terror
Last Winter

That the two holdup men who ter
rorized the residential district of Los
Angeles the past winter have again
started operations is evident from an
attempted robbery last night which
follows within tWenty-four hours the
successful holdup of DIR. Charles n.
Anderson, 1O43 Florida street. Wednes-
day night.
c. o. Bradley, a clerk in the real
estate office of Lawrence b. Burke
Co., 142 South Broadway, and living
at the Y. NJ. G. A. rooms, was the
man accosted by the holdup men last
night. They caught up with him at
the corner of Tenth and Hill streets,
and one of the robbers flashed a re-
volver when he called on Bradley to
halt The young man took to his heels
and lost neither money nor Valuables.
The description of the two men who
held up DR.. Anderson and attempted
to hold up Bradley compares exactly
with the duo of highWaymen who were
repeatedly successful in their work
the past winter and baffled every effort
Of the police to effect their capture.
Bradley was on his way to the Y. M.
c. A. rooms when he noticed two men
following him. Becoming suspicious he
started across the street, near Tenth
and HILL when the taller of the men
drew a revolver and commanded him
to stop. Bradley did not heed the
warning, although he noticed re
volver in the hand of the man, but
ran to a nearby drugstore and tele-
phoned to police headquarters.
Bradley stated he believed the fact
the man with the gun was slow in
getting out his weapon was all that
saved his life.
He was able to give an accurate des-
cription of the men, which agrees al
most exactly with the description given
by DR.. Anderson of the men who held
him up.
The description of the man who
chased Bradley with the gun is, 80
years old, six feet tall, weighing 140
pounds, smooth shaven, blonde hair,
black derby hat and black suit of
clothes. The other man who accom-
panied the first alleged robber is de-
scribed as five feet, seven inches tall,
stockily built, Weighing 100 pounds,
with smooth face, wearing black soft
hat and dark suit of clothes.
The descriptions compare with the
two men who the detectives have been
looking for in vain for ever six months.
