DOLL AND IT'S CARRIAGE
BURGLARS ONLY PLUMBER

If Night Invader Was little Girl
She Had Mans Skill in Forcing
Window.
Los Angeles.-If conclusions were
formed by the police in the regular
way in respect to a burglary which
occurred a night or two ago, they
would say that the person who en-
tered the home of Mrs. L. o. Tyrell,
No. 436 Bernardo street, was a little
girl, for the only things taken were
doll and a dolls BABY carriage They
were valued at Sc.
But indications point to man as
having been the intruder, for no lit
tie girl could have forced a window
as nearly and quickly as did the per-
son who took the doll.
If any little girl has doll four
teen inches high and dressed in
brown gingham dress and a cab with
a dark green body, rubber tires and
upholstered cushions given her, she
ought to tell the police, for they be-
long to someone else and the police
want her admirer.

Washington. March 5.-Considerable in
terest attaches to the developments Of the
situation in Mexico so far as IL relates to
the further employment of the military
force in Texas Army officers generally do
not view with much satisfaction the pros
pect of being ordered to duty again on the
Mexican frontier
Some of the General Staff officers who
have been in Mexico and those who are in
receipt OF information from that country
believe that the government will not until
Il succeeds I'm establishing an army be able
TO put down the rebellion which is now
taking place under conditions most favor
able TO such manifestations. At the same
time. il is realized that there is always an
element which encourages rebellion in
Mexico. and which makes it's headquarters
on the American side of the Mexican bor-
der. 1t will be necessary, according TO the
best military judgment obtanable. to
maintain an active and vgilant patrol
along the Rio Grande. This will require
cavalry troops for the most part, and 1t is
IN anticipation Of this that the orders for
the station of the 14th Cavalry now re-
turning from the Philippines have been
withheld until that regiment reaches San
Francisco.
