and muffle the buzz of the saws when at work
 "It took three nights to get through with everything except the automatic bolt which locks all the cells. After learning that Sam had made as good progress as I had, we arranged it to go through the last bolt before mid night and be ready to make break as soon as possible after the mid night change in the watch. I got to work on the automatic bolt when the lights were put out early in the eve ming, and by 1 o'clock in the morn ing I could shift my bolt in good shape. I tried the door and found that 1t opened easily. After the guard made the rounds I slipped into the corridor. A moment later Sam ap- peared.
 We had our plans all laid. l en- tered his cell. We waited for the guard to come round again, and as he passed the door we seized him from behind, dragged him into the cell and put him to sleep with a crack on the skull with an iron bar. put on his official coat and hat, took his keys, unlocked the door to a store room and sent in the half-hour signal to the main office. Sam used the saws as quickly as possible to go through the bars on the window, while I made the regular tour of the guards corridor.
 T had to go within twenty feet of another guard, but covered my face with my handkerchief during an as sumed fit of coughing, and ran the gauntlet in good shape. When Sam got through the bars I brought two sheets to him, which he made into a rope. while I made my last tour
 When I got back to the room ev- erything was in readiness. We slid down the rope to the top of the prison wall. It was an easy drop from there to the ground and we got away. It was very cold night and we forced an entrance into clothing store and got new outfit. We decided that it was best for us to go 1t alone and make line for New York.
 We were flat broke and had to get money somewhere. We fixed up bit and tumbled onto a darling scheme the very first day out. Two young fellows, as we were passing the First National bank shortly after o'clock came out carrying a bag They showed by their manner that they were on an important mission We laid for them for two days, and found that they came out regularly each day with the bag. Then We fixed our play.
 We waited for them to appear on the third day in Trinity church yard and when they started up Broadway We got them before they had gone a block Stepping quickly up behind each picked out 8 man and gave him a handful of red pepper in his eyes i They dropped the bag like shot, and before they had time to yell I picked 1t up and we got lost in the crowd It was a safe play to make a break i for the Liberty street ferry with the bag as If we were going to take 6 train on the Central I unloaded the bag in the lavatory and got just s53, 900 for the days work"

 The lawyer of the pickpoeket took the fine imposed upon his client very much to heart
 Twenty-Five dollars' he expostu- lated. Your honor where is this poor, unfortunate man to get S25?'
 His honor did not know. or if he did he refrained from saying so. but the prisoner was less discreet.

But they more than doubled the taxicab robbers haul, get ting s53,000. They were widely known as the last of the famous Red Pepper Gang" Their capture follow ed as swiftly as did that of the re- cent robbers.
 It was my privilege to talk both with Phil Heinrich, one of the gang, and with Detective Dalton, who was Instrumental in their capture. Their stories form a unique chapter in the annals of crime, and prove that crime, like the Paris fashions, moves in circles

The "change of life is a most critical period in a woman's ex- istence, and the anxiety felt by women as it draws near is not without reason.
 When her system is in a de- ranged condition, she may be predisposed to apoplexy, or con- gestion of some organ. At this time, also, cancers and tumors are more liable to form and begin their destructive work.
 Such warning symptoms as sense of suffocation, hot flashes, headaches, backaches, dread of impending evil, timidity, sounds tn the ears, palpitation of the heart, sparks before the eyes, irregularities. constipation, vari- able appetite, weakness and inquietude, and dizziness, are promptly needed by intelligent women who are approaching the period in life when woman's great change may be expected.
 These symptoms are calls from nature for help. The nerves are crying out for assistance and the cry should be needed in time.
 Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is prepared to meet the needs of women's system at this trying period of her life. It invigorates and strengthens the female organism and builds up the weakened nervous system. It has carried many women safely through this crisis.

rentals, coal, wood, etc., whose office
was formerly located on the second
floor of the Scandinavian American
Bank building corner of. Jackson and
Sixth streets, has moved his office on
the ground floor of the same building,
No. 1856 E. Sixth street, next door to

hangs tale: Mr.. Fifield was sub
tenant of the WESTERN EXPRESS
CO., leaseholder of the second floor
Mr.. Fifield has large number of Afro
American customers, who, of course,
called at his Office in the natural
course of business. The WESTERN
EXPRESS co. did not like to see so
many Afro-Americans calling on Mr..
Fifield and so ordered him to move his

whom Mr.. Fifeld is connected in a
business way called on the WESTERN
EXPRESS co. and endeavored to have
the order rescinded, all to no purpose,
so Mr.. Fifield, rather than to have fur
Their trouble, moved as above stated.

AMERICAS FOREMOST LADY
COMPOSER,

very few lady composers have met
with such great success as has Hen,
rletta GRANDCHILDREN who for the past
ten years has been one of the primo
pal writer's for Jerome H. Remick E,
Co. She first made reputation as q
waltz writer, and some of her waltzes,
especially the new "Polaire Waltzes,'
are having worldwide popularity
On the program of the coronation ball
recently given in London these waltzes
held the place of honor, being put on
just before the internission, and COM
ment was made that it was the only
number on the dancing program writ
ten by an American composer. She
mas lately written some very high
class songs, and the song, Love
Dreams, is one of the popular songs of
the day Her latest and probably hel.
best song, My Only One, is, however.
destined to outrival it in popularity,
since 1t will appeal to almost all music
lovers, and not alone to those who
only see merit in the modern classics.
Inc lyric is worthy of the musical set
ting that Miss Belcher gave it, and
will appeal to those who seek merit in
both the words and music of a song.
We append the refrain: ra1
The stars above may shine so bright,
my only one! .-...
But you will be my guiding light, my
only one!
Your presence, dear, means more to
me
Ihan all the dreams of life to be;
Your kiss is blissful ecstacy,
My only one! My only one!

1.-THE WHITE SISTER"
The Next Attraction at the Grand
Opera House.

Opera House.
The enormous financial success of
THE White Sister," in which Cathrine
Countiss is starred by Stair and Hav-
lin-With it's massive stage production
used by Viola Allen-is significant
that deep in their hearts American
playgoers cherish the love for clean,
wholesome drama. "The White Sis
ter, to be seen at the Grand, week
commencing Sunday matinee, Jan. 81,
is as sweet and pure as the snow
white robes Of it's Dominican Nuns,
and it thrills and vibrates with intense
emotion.
1t is theatrical history that the prof
its OF this play, during it's two years
in the high-priced houses, reached
nearly quarter of a million dollars
Its commercial value at the lesser
scale is still enormous. The appealing
charm disclosed by Miss Countiss last
season in 'The Awakening Of Helena
Ritchie"; her temperamentaI fitness
for the role Of Sister Giovana; her
musical diction and tear-compelling
sweep Of pathos-all Influenced Stair
and Havln in securing for her this
remarkable play. A superior company
Of distinctive class, and the beauty Of
the scenic effects, costumes and Incl
dental music, will aid in making this
one Of the most notable Of the sea-
sons attractions.
Miss Countiss will be remembered
here by her Twin City appearances
with Stock Companies at the Metro
Dolitan and Grand.

Mary when she should become Of age
Mary came OF age last spring and a
search was instituted by her uncles in
Glasgow with no result.
A short time ago the search was re.
vived. Verna Rhodes, another sister,
has come from her home in British
Columbia. She and the lost sister
Luella and Mary Trigg lived together
IN indianapolis, Ind, until twelve
years ago, when Verna went West.
She and Luella correspondent about
twice month for four years, Luella
having moved in the meantime to
Whitehall, Ind. Then the correspond
ence suddenly ended, and Luella has
not been heard from since Verna COM
municated with the police of White
hall, who advised her that Luella had
returned to Indianapolis. A search
was Instituted for her there, but no
trace was found The search has
been revived from time to time, with
out result. ...' ..s
The Rhodes sisters and their broth
ers in Glasgow are The only relatives
living of Jane Rhodes, who left. the
property. They believe their sister Lu-
ella dead, because relations between
them were always amicable, and they
think they would have heard from her
if she were living. What has become
OF the niece, who is heiress to the
property, is equally mystery.
Hayden Rhodes, brother, is now
in charge Of the farm properties in
Glasgow and is searching for his lost
sister and niece.
