) HOME FOLKS
Mabel Conlisk, SOC. West For
ty-second street, Webb's sweet
heart, undoubtedly could give the
police such information as would
lead to the auto bandits capture.
But not one of the many per-
sons who knows Webb's where
abouts will give the police even
hint that might put them on
Webb's trail.
And as for Mabel Conlisk-she
was taken to the Hyde Park sta
ton and questioned for hours
and refused absolutely to tell a
word about her sweetheart.
Webb is no faYorite around his
home district. He broke the ira
ditions of the people there by be-
coming a strikebreaker, first for
the Rock Island and then for the
newspapers.
After he became a strike
breaker, Webb did not dare call
on his sweetheart without carry
ing his guns, knowing what was
likely to happen to him if any of
the grim toilers laid their hands
on him.
But the people of that district
of the South Side have a code of
honor as simple as that of the
mountaineers of Kentucky, And
the first maxim of that code is:
Thou shalt not give up thy
neighbor, nor thy neighbor's son,
nor his relative, nor his friend to
+ba ool}ca .

Seventeen hundred dollars for
the capture Of Teddy Webb, dead
or alive.
Seventeen hundred dollars easy
money, the police call it, But
there are no takers.
There is a price of 81, 200 on the
head of Teddy Webb, railroad
strikebreaker, newspaper slugger,
auto bandit and supposed muir
derer of Detective Peter Hart.
On someone's lust for that
blood money the police are plac-
ing their whole hopes of captur-
ing the man who shot and killed
one of their number.
The police have given up all
talk Of "clues" leading to the cap
ture of Webb. They never had
any clues in the first place. But
now they have quit talking about
them,
They also are quite sure that
Webb never. left Chicago; that he
is here in this city today, and that
he is liable to pull off another

There are dozens of men and
women, yes and even children, in

could tell the police just about
where they could lay hands on
Webb today.

neighborhood. and the people

years had been defrauding banks and
misappropriating vast sums of church

Of the mon the Kaiser directed the
streams OF water that played on the
fire.
Under his intelligent guidance, the

which was confined to two rooms OF
the aide-de-camp's wing of the build

The Empress was an interested

palace were burning.
Their work done, the fremen were
thanked by the Kaiser and treated to
wine from the imperial cellars.
