"The most miserable Christmas

ones own vanity.

One of the most convincing ads in

his fingers all messed up. The express

Husband Says He Wants to

NEW YORK, July 9.-Marie Ra"nold
the stately Aida of the Metropolitan
Opera Company, has returned from
Philadelphia where she serenaded the
mayor in the National Saengerfest, in
despair. because her husband. DR.. J. c.
Rappold, a Brooklyn physician. will not
agree to a legal separation.
DR.. Rappold stands considerably more
than six feet in his stocking feet, and
weighs in proportion, and he is no ex
ception to the rule that large bodies
move slowly and stand firmly.

At that time he said with no little

the rift by her love for her art. which
has crushed out her love for him.

SERVANT TAKES
NEGRO BURGLAR
Prisoner Believed To Be Thief
Who RanSacked' Two West
Peachtree Homes.

Ed Reed. a negro. believed to be the
elusive burglar who has been making
speciality of the fashionable West
Peachtree section, is behind the bars
of the police station today. after having
been captured twice last night by
George Henderson. negro butler, in the
home of Herbert L. Wigs, $50 West
Peachtree street
Henderson discovered the burglar
prying open a rear window in the
Wigs home. and gave chase when the
marauder fed. The chase continued
for several blocks, but the butler prov
ed the better sprinter and finally
bagged the fugitive He then aroused
a resident of another West Peachtree
home and asked him to call the police
station While the man was telephon-
ing, the burglar suddenly broke loose
from his captor and again sprinted,
with Henderson in close pursuit.
The burglar again led the chase for
several blocks, and for the second time
was outclassed. This time, Henderson
held him with the tenacity of a bull
dog. and kept him prisoner until De-
tectives Pate and Rosser arrived and
clasped the handouts.
Burglar Drops Jimmy.
In his flight, the burglar dropped his
jimmy which was later found by the
officers
The Wigs home was burglarized on
the night of July 4, and lot of valu-
ables stolen Both jobs are believed to
have been done. by the same person.
The detectives also are satisfied the
prisoner is the same burglar who rob
bed the home of A. P Coles, cashier of
the Central Bank & Trust Corporation,
SO West Peachtree, on the night of the
Fourth Mr.. and Mrs. Coles were at
their country home near Roswell at the
time. The burglar ransacked every
room in the house, obtaining valuable
jew els.
Outside of their intrinsic value, the.
jewels are particularly priced by the
family as most of them are heirlooms
handed down for generations. Detec-
tives Black and Harper who are inves-
tigating this burglary, put Reed
through a close examination today in
the hope of getting trace of these gems.

THE POLITICAL SITUATION.

The political developments OF the week
just ended have been highly gratifying to
the President and his supporters who are
convinced that nothing can prevent the
nomination of Mr.. Taft on the first ballot
and are now turning their attention TO
methods OF securing harmony in the party
after the convention shall have made its
choice. This week has given the President
a majority OF the delegates TO the Iowa
State Convention, insuring him Iowas big
four" and a majority of the Michigan State
Convention. insuring to him the "big four"
Of that state. Reports from Kansas ind-
cate that Mr.. Taft will secure a majority
OF the delegation from that state. while
news of the Roosevelt-La Toilette feud In
Nebraska affords promise OF satisfactory
results in that state. One OF the surprises
OF the week was the 50 Iowa District. the
stronghold OF Senator Cummins. There
was a deadlock In the convention, and
finally, on the sixty-second ballot. a com
promise was reached whereby two friends
Of Senator Cummins were elected delegates.
but the convention agreed neither 10 IN
struct them nor 10 adopt any resolutions
1t is probable that had the friends OF
President Taft realized that he would with
comparatively no effort enjoy the support
Of an even half of the convention they
would have made such additional efforts as
would have gained for him the two dele
gates. In addition to omittng instructions
