Mrs. Louis Bell, who was in the sec
ond story of the Brown house at the
time heard the front door being softly

heard was made by the thief. The
front door was closed but was not locked
and the vestibule door was closed.
Some OF those at the tables felt
cold air passing through the room, and
when they investigated they found che
front door open. Then the theft OF the

LEARN TO SHOOT
Guards Replace Prison TRUSTEES
at LeavenwOrth Pen.
Major Leonard Orders Sweep
ing Changes at Prison.

Leavenworth, Kan, Jan. 31-Acting
under orders by Major Leonard, the
prison investigator, all convicts now
employed as gate tenders at the fed
eral prison will be removed tonight and
hereafter their places will be taken by
guards. Reporters and others who are
permitted to visit the prison will be
carefully searched at the gates.
The gate jobs which have been held
by especially trustworthy convicts
have been looked upon as a desirable
occupation and the new order will not
meet with favor.
SO far as is known there is not an
instance of gate tenders violating a
prison rule. The order is said to be
along the line of many being issued
by the investigation.
Major Leonard came here with the
power of an absolute dictator and
any suggestion he makes must be act
ed upon at once. He has brought on
an expert rifleman who will stay here
to teach the guards to shoot.

Teeth BETRAY HIM
Thief Who Toasted Left Print
i'm Butter.
French Magistrate Convinced
of Guilt by "Bite.'

Paris, Jan. 31.-Even the finger
print method of obtaining evidence
against criminals has been excelled by
the police in establishing a burglars
identity from the tooth marks which
he left in a pat of butter.
Pierre Bassaud, the alleged burglar
broke into his former employer s
premises at Montreuil-Sou Bots. Fail
ing to discover any yaluables, he went
to the kitchen and had a feast. When
arrested he denied the charge, but the
police found the marks of his teeth
including one which was broken, ex-
actly reproduced in a lump of butter
into which he had probably bitten by
mistake in the dark.
Bassuad still protested innocence
he was arraigned sent for some but
ter and made the prisoner bite into
it, the same irregular impression was
obtained.

JUDGE STARTED IT
ROckefelIer'S Interest i'm White
Slavery Accidental.
Result of Judge Refusing to
Excuse Him From Jury.

New York, Jan. 31.-How John D.
Rockefeller, jr., became interested in
the campaign of vice suppression,
which resulted in the foundation of
the bureau of social hygiene, was re-
lated last night by District Attorney
Whitman at the sixteenth annual din
ner Of the young mems Bible class of
the Fifth Avenue Baptist church, of
which Mr.. Rockefeller is vice presi-
dent
Mr. Whitman said that when Mr..
Rockefeller was summoned to serve
on the grand jury which investigated
white slave" conditions in this city,
he visited Judge O'Sullivan, and asked
to be excused. Business interests and
a trip out of the city, he said, would
make it difficult for him to serve.
Judge O'SuI1ivan declined to excuse
him, and announced his intention of
making Mr.. Rockefeller foreman,
saying he was the only man the whole
city would trust for this important
work.
81 believe Judge OSullivan never
rendered a better service to this city
and nation" said Mr.. Whitman. than
he did when he appointed Mr.. Rookie
Teller. Under his direction the body
worked ably and carefully for months.
Its report on vice conditions was the
best that has ever been given out
either in this city or country.
"Mr. Rockefeller's interest did not
cease then, in fact. it had only just
begun. I feel that the service which
he rendered then and which he has
continued is to be the greatest work
of it's kind ever carried out in this
cOuntrV'
