Two Negroes Caught in Act of R0bbing Jefferson
 Theatre

Two heroes, William Johnson and ". IC. Cooksey, were caught red handed early this morning in an attempt to rob the Jefferson theatre on Second avenue. When caught by the officers the two ne- groes were loaded down with costumes taken from the dressing rooms of the theatre.
 The stage carpenter who sleeps in the building was awakened about 12:30 o'clock by the sound of footsteps. Rising hastily he stepped from his room and almost ran into the two negroes, proving about the stage. officer Goldstein, who was walking the beat at the time was called. One of the burg lars. Johnson, tried to get away, but the patrolman chased him up the alley and sent for the patrol. Then going back he started search for the other. For some time no trace of the missing burglar was forthcoming, until Of- ficer Goldstein stumbled over pile of sacks in one corner and found the man hidden under them.
 The two men probably made the en- trance through back window, from it's broken condition. They confined their operations 10 the dressing rooms in the theatre, and the costumes belonging to the company playing the Rose Maid there yesterday and today were tho only things that were touched. They had been taken from the trunks in the different rooms, All of this property was returned to the stage, and placed under the care of the stage carpenter.

 Surmised

York, Pa, September 27.-What is be- lieved to have been a triple murder and suicide was discovered today when the bodies of Frank Hendricks and two sisters, Esther and Emma, were found at their home in New Freedom, near here. Death in each case was due to bullet wounds.

 Caskey was a recluse, who made his home on the Hendricks farm. What oc- cured there today can only be sur missed, as all the witnesses are believed to be dead.
 The body of Hendricks, who was 45 years old, was found in the barn where he had been at work when shot. The two women, each more than 90 years old, were shot while sewing in their home. There were no evidences of a struggle
 Caskey's body was found on the porch of his laws home A note at his side said he had ended his life because of i'll health, but made no men tion of the other two deaths. A fan cied grudge is believed to have prompted him to commit the triple murder before ending his own life.
