Roy Harris In the police court this morn
ing when he entered plea of guilty to
the theft of SIS from the Greek fruit
store OF Heon & Constantinople. The
court imposed sentence of sixty days in

that he had checks which he had earlier
in the afternoon attempted to cash.
Shortly after 4 o'clock yesterday even
ing Harris entered the store at 326 King
street during the temporary absence of
George Manages. who had gone to a
branch store on the same square. He
reached over the counter. opened the cash
till and grabbed a sack containing S2D.S5.
of which s1s was in silver Manages saw
him enter. and quickly returned. he said.
Harris appeared nervous and asked him
to cash a check. 1t is stated. Manages
informed him he could not do So but
hastily examined his cash drawer and
found the sack missing. He gave chase
and captured Harris at King and Wash
ington streets as he was boarding a car.
Harris, he said. broke away from him
at King and St. Asaph streets. and finally
Policemen Beach. Young and kerns found
Harris hiding in an clubhouse In the yard

day had turned over to the custody of
Mrs. Mary Matthews is today happily
romping with other children in the Chill
dren's Home. The child is unusually
bright and apparently enjoys her new
surroundings.
Ida Dogan. the colored woman who had
charge of the child was very reticent
about telling the name of the mother.
Finally, however, she did, and Judge Bar
ley decided to keep it secret.
Mrs. Mary Matthews, to whom the child
was turned over. IS connected with the
Woman's Christian Temperance Union.
1t is understood that the cOlored woman
who had possession of the child and who
was paid "a monthly allowance for its
keeping. will notify the mother. In the

can get her by proving her claim through
