BURGLARS HELD
IN HEAVY BAIL
Two Accused of Robbing Hof-
bauer Home at Point of
Guns.

Benjamin Galbraith, twenty-five
years old, of ID Crittenden street, and
Russell P. Smith, twenty years old
of 1873 Belleville avenue, were ar
raigned before Acting Judge Oehrins
charged with robbing Mr.. and Mrs
Charles Hofbauer at the point of re-
volvers in the home. IA Nursery

Each was held in $1,000 bail on a
charge of breaking, entering and

kill. Galbraith also was held in 81 900
bail for carrying concealed weapons.
The men were arrested by Lieuten-
ants Ryan, Pagan and Fohs Monday
night From Friday morning until the
time of making the arrest one of the
detectives was hidden in the rooms of
the Northern Republican Club, 1877
Belleville avenue, watching Smiths
home. Smith was under suspicion as
one of the robbers, but the detectives
sought to catch the second man, too.
Finally the detectives, by ruse, in
duced Galbraith to visit drug store
at Crittenden street and Belleville
avenue, where he was placed under
arrest He was taken to the rooms
of the Republican Club, where, the
detectives assert, he drew revolver
and attempted to escape. Smith was

The police are trying to connect Gal
braith and Smith with other rob-
berries.
Both men, the police say, have
criminal records. They are sons of
widowed mothers. and at the alleged
robbery of the Hofbauer home are
said to have given the poverty of their
parents as their reason for entering
the place.

TOLD OF FORTUNE
Mrs. James cIarey Hears That
Husband Owned Estate VAL
ued at $4,000.
Especial to the Newark start


MADISON, Feb. 4.-Deserted by
her husband twenty-five years ago

Thomas T. DeGraffenried, the
lawyer, of 140 Nassau street. Mr..
Clarey's attorney for the past twelve
years, had always thought him to be
bachelor. His client had never
mentioned a family to him. Never
theless, he thought 1t advisable to ad-
vertise for relatives of the deceased.
1t was only through the merest
chance that Mrs. Clarey read the ad-
ertisement.
Mrs. Clarey and her son, George
who has been a street car conductor
in Burlington for the past few years,
are staying here at the home of John
+. Clarey, owner of the Madison
Eagle, and since the. death of the
manufacturer, identified as his
brother. George has just learned that
he had an uncle
Mayor James E. Burk. of this place,
was one of the old-time residents of
Madison who recalled the separation
of Mr.. and Mrs. Clarey. He helped
to identify the widow and accom-
panied her here. Despite her long
absence Mrs. Clarey was identified by
some of her friends of old. Mr.
Clarey was the manufacturer of 20
y. o." bread, having ten distributing
stores in New York city.

OTTUMWAN FINALLY
GETS HIS PENSION

Marshalltown, March 19-,After wait
ing fifty years for pension John P.
Wagner, aged ", member OF the
soldiers home from Ottumwa, soon
will be on the pay roll of Uncle Sam
as a civil war pensioner.
The story of the denial by his gov
eminent of a pensionable status dates
back to 1864.
Wagner failed to salute General
Anger, his superior officer, the general
called the colonel of Wagner's regi-
ment to task and demanded that
charges be preferred against Wagner.
Wagner was dishonorably discharged
by a court martial without trial.
In 1881 Wagner tried to get Presi-
dent Hayes to have the record OF the
war department revoked and an hon
orable discharge substituted but was
unsuccessful.
Senator Kenyon recently took up the
case before the senate committee o.,
military affairs and word came yester'
day from Washington to the effect that
the house committee had concurred in
the senate bill.

FUNERAL OF CAPT.
NIX AT ALTON

Creston, March 19.-The news that
Captain B. T. Nix, of Alton, had passed
away was the cause of great many
expressions of regret by Creston pc O.
pie today. Captain Nix was well
known in Creston as he had lived so
long in Union county and was so
greatly identified with the upbuilding
of the county that he was considered
more as a citizen of the whole county
than Of any one community.
Captain Nix has always been a
strong, robust man and until his last
illness had never been a sick a day
in his life. About the first of March
he was stricken with an acute attack
of indigestion and this later resulted
in heart trouble.
Funeral services will be held at the
late home of the deceased Friday at.
ternoon at o'clock. Interment at AT
ton cemetery.
