The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1914-03-01

Paris, February s.
THE French Government is de-
termined that Mona Lisa"
J. shall not be stolen again.
Extraordinary precautions have
low been taken to prevent this or
any other Of the treasures Of the
Louvre from being taken away.
One OF the first steps taken to
safeguard the Louvre was to employ
number or dogs OF the clever breed
known as police dogs. One OF them
guards every fifty feet Of wall space
lay and night. No man can now put
hand over the railing in front of
ihe pictures without having a dog
after him.
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1914-03-01

Then he realized that the frame
would be heavy and hard to conceal
He quickly removed the picture
from the frame. He left the picture
lying In the salon and carried the
frame to a doorway a few yards
away at the head OF a small stair
way and left it outside the door.
Then he returned for the picture.
He thrust it under his loose blouse,
where it was scarcely noticeable.
Hearing footsteps, he decided to
leave hurriedly by the small stair
way where he had left the frame.
AS he went out he put the key In his
pocket to prevent any one pursuing
him that way.
Having raached the ground, he
crossed the Courtyard OF the Sphinx,
and then passed out through the
gateway known as the Porte Visconti,
which faces on the Seine.
The French authorities summoned
Perusia, together with all the work
men who had worked on the Louvre
at the time OF or just before the
theft. He proved that he had not
worked there since January "a, and
this seemed sufficient explanation.
No one discovered that he was the
thief until he revealed 1t himself.

date and August 21
he meditated upon
and carried out his
plan for stealing the
Mona Lisa.
II was Z o'clock in
the morning Of Au-
gust 81 when he en-
tered the Louvre
The building was
opon then for the
workmen and guard
ians or care-takers,
but the general pub
lie was not admitted
that day.
Perugla wore the
long blouse common
~ used by French
workingmen, especi-
ally by house paint
ers. He looked, Of
course, like a man
working on the
building. He walked
straight up to the
picture In the de-
serted Salon Carre
and took 1t from the
hooks by which 1t
was hung. A man
standing on the floor
could reach his hand
to the top Of the
small picture.

POLITICAL S

With a big majority republican rally
in Sioux Falls, Tuesday night. at which
Governor Byrne and Senator Crawford
were the chief speakers, and with the
minority republicans active in all parts
of the state, the campaign in South
Dakota, which will eliminate at the
primary election on March "a, may
now be said to have opened, says a
Sioux Falls dispatch.
Congressman Charles H. Burke, the
minority republican candidate for SEN
ator, has recently, with some OF his
~lieutenants made a swing around the
state, and Is reported to be well salts
fed with the condition of his fences.
Some of the shrewdest politicians in
the state do not Hesitate to make the
prediction that while the fight may be
a close one, Congressman Burke will
defeat Senator Crawford and capture
the republican nomination for the
United States senate.
They base their prediction on alleg-
ed dissatisfaction among many pro-
gressive republicans with the course
of Senator Crawford at Washington,
and his certain loss Of several thous-
and democratic voters, who when he
was originally elected to the senate are
said to have cast their votes for him,
they being able to do this through de-
fects in the election laws which then
were In force. Under the primary law.

nation to the Office of circuit Judge,
the judicial elections are receiving
much attention.
One OF the most interesting of these
contests Is in progress in the second
district, of which Sioux Falls is the
principal town. The most conspicuous
candidate In this district is f. z. wag-
ner, formerly United States attorney
for South Dakota. After a sharp con-
test he received the majority republi-
can Endorsement, his plurality being
an overwhelming one. As the majority
republicans have a large majority OF
the votes in nearly every county of the
circuit, Mr.. Wagner expects t be NOM
