The heart of a burglar touched
by the tears of his six-year-old
victim!
1t happened in Tacoma. A
clever burglar. who entered a
house in the dead Of night, stole
money that had been placed with
in a foot of sleeping mans
head, and took a baby's ring, has
written to the child apOlOgizing
for his theft.
Mrs. Robert Berg, 1921 South
G street, received in today's mail
letter addressed to her six-year-
old son, Henry, from the burglar
who Wednesday night broke into
her home, stole $3.50 and the
child's ring.

Berg, after reading the letter, a
sob racking her throat, II don't

would like to help him, if l can,
and do not care now about the
money that he stole"
The letter was written on a
sheet of wide, ruled paper, in an
illiterate manner. 1t was post
marked from the Tacoma central
postoffice. There are no clues in
the single sheet that will aid the
officials in trailing the burglar, it
is believed, and Mrs. Berg today
declared she would not prosecute
him If he were caught.

New York, March 6.-Dr, Fried
rich F. Friedman of Berlin admins
tered today his serum for tuberculo
sis to two women and man, the first
patients whom he has treated in
America. The serum was injected at
the People hospital for chronic tuber-
culosis on the lower east side, in the
presence of number of physicians,
including representatives of the
board of health.
The board of healths sanction,
hihtherto withheld, was granted after
the visiting Berlin physician sub
mitted to the board tube contain
ing a culture of the bacilli. DR.. Ernest
]. Lederle, commissioner of health,
said his department will test the cul-
ture on animals. DR.. Friedman has
been barred from making general
use of his discovery because he holds
no state license as practicing physi-
clan. The sanction of the health
authorities now gives any city hospi-
tai the privilege of making the Ger
man specialist a resident physician on
its staff.

ciety, which protested against tests
because DR.. Friedman held no H.

appointment he will not need state

the fashionable hotel where he has

The manager notified him that he

1t was explained to DR.. Friedman
that the hotel has been overrun with
sufferers from tuberculosis since re-

DR.. Friedman gave up his apart

representative SMITH INTRODUCES
COUNTY SALARY BILL IN HOUSE
and GETS IT into FRIENDLY
COMMITTEE
TABLES ARE TURNED
BY CLEVER COUP

The Democrats this morning, took

and by the introduction of H. B. No.

minority members may force the hand
of the Old Guard line up in the house
and compel them to say whether or
not they will vote for the bill advo-
Gated by Governor Mcdonald in the
event they can not pass their own
measure over his veto, which thus
far, they have been unable to do.
1t has been currently reported that
the house Republicans, failing to pass
! the bill vetoed by the governor would
seek to throw responsibility on the
Democrats for the defeat of the meas
ure and try to step from under the
deluge of condemnation at the hands
OF office holders who want their pay.
But the Smith bill will now probably
be reported to the house with favor
able report and it will then be up to
the Republicans to fish or cut bait
When the Smith bill was introduced
Mr.. Blanchard made point Of order,
asserting that the constitution of the
state prohibited the introduction of
bills appropriating money after the
tenth day before adjournment.
The speaker overruled him, how
Smith asked to have the bill referred
to the committee on internal improve
ments.
Mr.. Catron moved to have it re-
ferred to the committee on finance.
The speaker held that it always had
been customary to refer bill to the
committee as requested by the mem
bers introducing the measure and he
sent the bill to the committee on in
ternal improvements. Mr. Chaves
moved to table the bill. but the speak
er held that he was out of order. Mr..
Blanchard then appealed to the house
to compel the chairman of the com
mttee to Immediately report the bill
but the speaker held that the chair
man had not yet received the bill
from the clerk. 1t then being apparent
that nothing could be accomplished,
the Old Guard members subsidized and
the bill was referred to the committee
