One of the most astonishing forays of
jewel thieves in which the jewelers. Pro-
Chicago several years ago. 1t was one of
those audaciously plotted crimes which
are too incredible TO be admitted to the
columns of fiction but from time to time
appear in the realm of cold facts.
At ten o'clock in the morning jewelry
salesman entered a corner jewelry store
in Chicago. He carried bag containing
several diamond set pieces. He was &C
companied by a porter carrying pieces
of less value. As he stepped over the
threshold of the store two masked men
stepped forward, each Of them armed with
a revolver. One of the masked men COW
cred the porter, the other man covered the
salesman. Ordered to submit at once on
pain of being shot through the heart, the
salesman and the porter made no resist
ance and were taken by the masked men
back Of screen which shut off one corner
of the store. Behind this screen they
found the owner of the store, his son, who
acted as clerk, the matchmaker and the
office boy, all lying on the floor with their
feet tied and gagged so that they could
not make any noise.
One of the band of thieves remained
back of the partition to mount guard over
the bound men. The others then ransacked
the store. They had already taken the
salesman's cases, containing about twenty
thousand dollars worth of diamonds.
After they had gotten what they wanted
from the store they departed in an auto
mobile, leaving the men behind the parti-
ton unable to move or speak. They were
in this position for about three-quarters
of an hour when the office boy managed
to wriggle free from his bonds. He at
once brought help and the pursuit of the
thieves began. There were seven of these
men who had arranged for the robbery
and carried out their project in detail.
They had come to the store in an automo-

VERY five years there Is a great
elephant hunt in Mysore, India. The
operations connected with the recent
hunt cost the government more than
$1,000 rupees For months beforehand
native keepers and heaters were en-
ployed in gradually but persistently
working the herds up from remote and
difficult jungles to an enclosure forty
miles away. According TO a prear-
ranged scheme. the elephants are driven
into such a position that they cannot get
water except at a great tank enclosed
in timber palisades. The elephants may
hesitate for a long time TO enter this
pool bat finally. driven by thirst, they
enter and the gates, Of which there are
five In number. are dropped in place by
men concealed in the trees, who release
the ropes "a soon as they see the ele-
plants within the enclosure. Then men
on elephants and heaters drive the animals
into a smaller enclosure, where they can
be caught and roped. The last drive
lasted two days
The tame elephants have an important
part in the pursuit Of the wild ones. not

Elephant hunting in Soudan is becOm-

hundred men started from Khartoum this
year, many of them being on their honey
moon with their brides. a writer in the

night. The salesman knew nothing about
the robbery until the morning, when he
found his jewel pocket had disappeared
The porter of the car was suspected, but
although the detectives of the jewelers.
Protective Union worked indefatigably on
the case no clew TO the whereabouts of the
vanished jewels could be found
Six months afterward in St. Louis a
negro entered a jewellers shop and said
that he would like TO have some diamonds
set. The agents of the Union immedi-
ately became cOgnizant of this fact The
gathered as to the disappearance of the
jewels warranted their suspicion of the
negro and he was arrested and searched.
He was found to be one of the most
richly jewelled individuals ever seen. Not
the man who broke the bank at Monte
Carlo or an East Indian nabob could have
surpassed him in the prodigality of gems
with which his person was bedizened.
There were diamonds inside the seams of
his trousers. diamonds sewed into his
coat and shirt. diamonds concealed IN
cotton in the toes of his shoes and dia-
monds in his razor box. He had $4,000
worth of loose diamonds on him. but the
others he had disposed of before he was
caught. and most of them never were re-
covered.
A little more than a year ago in At
lanta, Ga, a jewelry salesman sent his
trunks TO the station to be checked. When
the trunks were carried out of the hotel a
man standing at the door signalled to a
man at the corner. This second watcher
signalled to a man who stood still further
along the block. When the transfer dray
which carried the trunks came up to this
third man he stopped the driver and said
he had a couple of trunks ne wanted to
have taken TO the station, and would like
the man to take them along in his truck.

urelessly. relentlessly until he is landed,
and quite without regard to the amount
that he has stolen. Money is spent freely
in this task. 1t doesn't matter in the least
that the amount spent TO get the man is
twice as much as the price Of his loot
The thing is to get the man.
This policy steadily pursued has done
more to discourage the robbing of jewelry
stores than any other that has ever been
tried. There are two organizations of
jewellers which pursue this policy. One
is the Alliance, which is composed of re-
tail jewellers, and the other is the Jewel
ers' Protective Union, which includes the
wholesale men, who send out agents on
the road with millions of dollars worth of
jewels to be sold TO the dealers throughout
which are moving about the country In
this fashion varies between thirty and
forty million dollars. The forms of rob
berry with which these statesmen have to
contend are sneak thieves, Knockout drops
and hold-upS. The retail jewellers who
are protected by the Alliance, in addition
to the genuine burglar who cracks the
safe. must deal with the store thief, some
times a burglar sometimes a sneak thief,
the hold-up man and the window smashing
thief. In the case of the indoor job. how
ever, the Alliance will do nOthing-nor
where a safe has been left open or an
employe has been an accomplice of the
thief.
One of the reasons why the Organiza-
tons of jewellers are so much more
effective in their pursuit of criminals
then are either private firms or the
police of the cities in which the robberies
take place is that their detectives are sta
toned in every State in the Union ready
to take up a case the minute that tele-
gram is received stating that robbery has
been committed and the suspects are sup
posed to be in some one particular terri
tory. The individual jeweller could not
obtain such universal espionage in the
pursuit of thieves without the expendi-
ture of vastly more money than he is
usually willing to put out, and the police
of any one city can track their man after

The driver said that he could do this, and
the man WHO had hailed him said the
trunks were up in an office building OPP
posite The driver left his team and
mounted the stairs of the office building
with the other man, but when they ar
rived at the room in which the trunks
were supposed to be they found the door
locked. The owner Of the trunks said that
he would look for the janitor and started
diligently TO DO so while the driver waited.
Time was rapidly passing. The trunk
owner hunted and hunted for the janitor
and went up and down stairs as hard as
he could, but no janitOr was TO be found
Finally the driver said he could wait
no longer; it was necessary for him 10
go down to his team, as otherwise he
might miss the train for which his load
was intended He hurried down to the
street, but he could not find his team.
Strange to say, it had disappeared. SO
had the man who was so anxious to have
his trunks taken to the station.
In the meanwhile as soon as the driver
had gone into the office building a man
had approached the waiting team. He
mounted the seat and drove away. He
drove a short distance and stopped in
front of a house from which came two
men. who took from the transfer wagon
the two trunks of the jewelry salesman
which had been sent to the train. They
carried these trunks into the house, took
from them $4,000 worth of diamond
rings and brooches and departed. So did

in the street and given a few dollars to

zens. 1t was a case of a robbery care

After many months the jewelers. Pro
tective Union succeeded in tracking down
the men concerned in the robbery. The
chase had gotten closer and closer to the
thieves, who, at last believing that escape
was impossible, had sent word to the
jewelers. Protective Union that they
could have the goods back if they would
call off the pursuit This was refused,
however, and at last all of those con-
cerned in the robbery in any way were
arrested. The evidence was not suffi-
GENTLY strong to convict some Of the men,
laid by the heels for life, for the Illinois
law, which provides that a man who COM
mits such a crime and is proved to be an
habitual criminal gave the opportunity to
the union to make q striking example OF
these men. This was one of the first
occasions in which an automobile figured
as a first class assistant to the robbing
of jewelry stores. The automobile jewel
thief and the window smashing thief are
both Chicago developments, although
they were both speedily copied in less en-
terprising communities.
Robbery with Comic Side.
A case of diamond larceny which had
certain elements OF humor, although prob
ably not to those who suffered from OF
for the crime, occurred several years age
on a sleeping car in which a jewelry
salesman was travelling. He carried
about $4,000 worth of loose diamonds
The diamonds were kept in a pocket such
as most statesmen have made for the pur-
pose, and this pocket was placed in the
pocket of a garment worn during the
South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1913-08-07

\ man may swindle his fellow

excellent chance to get away.
But the man who cracks a jewellers
safe-that is another question.
There is a power that will follow this
kind of malefactor 70 the ends of the
earth, never resting, never pausing-as in
eyitable as destiny, as cruel as fate, as
patient as the water that wears away al
stone.
He may 20 north or south, east or

hide himself away in a village or in al
great city. He may change his name, his
habits Of life, his appearance. He may
cut himself off from his family and all
his friends He may seek to battle his
pursuers by an open and carefree way of
life that Stimulates innocence itself.
All in vain Justice will find him out

To travel across a continent only to-
find ones footsteps logged just as be-
fore the journey, TO hunt out some OBJ
scure spot and settle down for a while in
fancied security and suddenly to come
broad awake with the knowledge that a
stranger in the village is regarding one
with an extraordinary pertinacity, to
make a successful disappearance and lie
hidden until the hunt goes by only to find
on emerging from ones seclusion that il
hasn't gone by at all, but is waiting there
with entire complacence and a perfect
faith-after a while this gets on the thiefs
nerves. The most stoical purioiner of
jewels cannot live by jewels alone. He is
man with human sensibiIites, and what
are jewels for, after all, to such gentry
but to use in exchange for seasure? At
last, in desperation he saihes forth to
nibble a little at the JOY of living; he
takes one little impatient false step; he
weakens to n human confidante.
And then they have him.
No Hope for the Repentant.

He will be 4 free man again.
But the jewelers. Security Alliance,
which is an organization of jewellers
formed for the purpose of bringing
thieves who rob jewelry stores to justice,

And the repentant burglar who had
thought to restore at least a portion of
the pelf and go scot free in consequence
finds that it isn't to be that way at all
He is going TO be punished to the full ex-
tent of the law. Restitution doesn't do
for the iewelry burglar. He is to be
made an example of. so that other burglars
