The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1913-08-27

In court it transpired that the first
two intruders were a husband who
was seeking divorce evidence against
his wife, and a private detective.
They had been reinforced by another
detective and two law clerks. The
party had very carelessly picked out
the wrong apartment, that was all, in
their search for the recTeant wife.
Magistrate Corrigan sent the
whole five to Blackwell's Island for
80 days. de Sapresi would have
been justified in killing both of the
first two men who entered his
rooms" said the magistrate. The de
Sapresis are scarcely consoled by the
punishment of the maraUders, as in
the melee more than $500 worth of
art treasures in their rooms was
smashed to bits.

THE COUPLE GOT IN THE WRONG


New York, Aug. 27.-To few NOR
tails falls a more surprising adven-
tUre, even in marvellous Manhattan,
than that which befe1 Mr.. and Mrs.
Elener de Sapresi.
De Sapresi is an art editor on a
magazine. He and his wife, Edith,
live in an apartment at 149 w. 18th
street. They were peacefully slUm-
bering in the front room of the said
apartment at 2 o'clock of a recent
morning when two total strangers
crawled through a window into the
room, having elambered up a fire es-
cape.
Mrs. de Sapresi, awakened, kicked
her husband. She was too frighten-
ed to speak, but her terror did not
extend to her legs. De Sapresi awoke
just in time to find an electric flash
light being flashed into his wife's
face by one man, while the other
grabbed him.
Over the bed hung an old army
bayonet. De Sapresi grabbed it and
gave battle to the two intruders,
whom he supposed to be burglars.
He certainly did cut them up some.
His wife pulled down an antiquated
rifle which hung near the bayonet
and joined in the fight. The two
providers we're getting much the
worst of it when three more men
burst in a door and came to the res
cue of the first two.
One of these turned on the light,
and at once all of them became anx-
ious to get away. But just then two
policemen arrived, attracted by the
Uproar, and took everybody into Gus
tody. De Sapresi's night clothes were
torn to shreds, both he and his wife
were bruised and battered, and all the
Invaders were cut and slashed by the
bayonet which the young editor had
welded so Valiantly.

And every day that you're away

My ways, somehow, don't suit me

I've lost the old content,
The peace of mind 1 used to find
In pleasant hours we spent
Your battered chair stands empty
where
So many times you sat,
When we would smoke and jest and
joke
And talk of this and that.
And when we each forbore from

And let the time drift by,
That, too, was good; you understood
My mood as well as !.
A gOodly line of friends is mine
Who hold my warm regard,
But of the clan there's just one man
Who's cOmrade, pal and pard.

But they can't fill your place up, Bill;

Took Wrong Suitcase

The Misses Laurel Gleed Vera
Mahoney and Alwilda Reemer
returned Sunday afternoon from a
two days visit with Miss Reemers

that they had picked up the wrong

ladies' wear they were supplied
with an assortment Of collars,

NIGHTS MADRI GRAS

Like great monarch with his train has passe
In regal pomp and splendor to the last,
The stars stoop forth along the Milky Way
jostling crowd, in radiant disarray,
ON heavens broad boulevard in pageants vast,
And things of EARTH the hunted and outcast,
Come from their haunts and hiding places; yea,
Even from the hooks and crannies of the mind
Visions uncouth and vagrant fancies start,
And specters of dead JOY that shun the light,
And impotent regrets and terrors blind,
Each one in form grotesque, playing it's part
In the fantastic Madri Gras of Night

To Progressiives

Progressive voters of Richmond are again re-
minded that the primary election for nominating
a city ticket will be held next Monday.
Progressive principles are built upon good cit
izenship and to be a good citizen it is necessary
to take an active and intelligent part in the af-
fairs of ones party.
Last fall a mighty protest registered
against numerous evils which had crept into our
system of government, but these evils were made
possible by the indifference the average voter
had displayed toward political affairs. He had
reasoned it out that there were enough politi-
clans to look after such matters without any in
reference on his part. In consequence the poll
ticians finally reached point where they abso-
lutey ignored those millions of people who re-
fused to interest themselves in political affairs
and were managing the affairs of the various
units of government to suit themselves and their
allies the great business interests.
The movement for the restoration of popular
government has now progressed to point where
it's success is assured, providing, of course, the
voters continue to follow out their new policy of
controlling the government through personal
management of party affairs.
To date, the American people, not the Ameri-
can politicians, absolutely control the second
strongest political organization the Progressive
party. To maintain the domination of this pow
erful organization the people must continue to
manifest interest in it's affairs If they do not
they can rest assured that the politicians stand
ready to take the management of the party
In compliance with the party principle of pop
ular management of party affairs the local pri-
mary is being held to nominate city ticket and
it is the duty of all Progressives to perform their
part of this important work
In another column of this issue will be found
a statement of the qualification of voters at the
Progressive primary, issued today by the Pro-
gressive city committee.

An Illustration

Our cumbersome tariff system is aptly illus
trated by the following few paragraphs clipped
from the Saturday Evening Post:
'"The new tariff bill begins with acetic or
pyroligneous acid, of which $500 worth was i'm
ported last year, yielding the government 81 500
of revenue; and that, comparatively speaking, is
a very important item Only ST of revenue was
derived from sulphate of iron; but it is down
there in the bill. Everything that ever was
thought of is down there The bill itself COM
prises some two hundred pages, and is accom-
panied by an official reference book of eight hum
dred pages The cotton schedule alone covers in
detail every minute variation of fabric known
to man.
"Such is the literary effect of the govern
ment's effort to give everything that measure of
special privilege that other beneficaries of spec

to say, Dogskins, 80 per cent ad valorem." be-
cause protected manufacturers of fur coats want
ed dogskins cheap while protected manufacturers
of catskins wanted small dogskins dear-and
both had pull. Therefore the bill must read :
