This was first made generally known

ell at first But after considering il
a while, it was deemed unwise in the
face of the hostile relations in Europe,
to allow any demonstration of this
kind
II was thought that the parade of
the band might precipitate a battle OF
some type, and particularly upon Sat
urday night. when the thirst parlors of
the city are sending forth men in all

Burglars Make Big Jewel Haul
| Making a daylight descent upon the
Kuehl flats, 1888 Bowditch street.
burglars ransacked the Joseph Loeffler
apartment on the second floor, max
ing a getaway with several hundred
dollars worth of diamonds and other
jewelry. The robbery was staged on
Saturday between the hours of a.
m. and 2 p. m, entrance to the apart
ment in question being gained through
the use of a pass key. The following
loot was secured: One pair diamond
earrings, one diamond ring, one opal
ring, one pearl ring. one diamond lava
lierre, one solid gold Hunting case
gents watch, one opal stick pin, one
gold watch. Elgin movement. The
robbery was reported TO the police
early Saturday afternoon and plain
clothes men were detailed on the case,
but thus far the police have no clue
as to the identity of the burglars.
Members of the Loeffler family were
absent the greater part of the morning
and part of the afternoon. Upon re-
turning they found the apartment in
a state of wild disorder. Drawers and
cabinets had been ransacked and var
ious articles had been dumped in heaps
on the floor. The loot is said to have a
valuation of several hundred dollars.
$3.50 Blaze Has Unique Oriein-A gro
GERS mistake in filling an oil can with
gasoline instead of kerosene resulted
in a fire that damaged apartments at
1921 West Second street to the ex-
tent of $3.50. Only efficient and prompt
work on the part of the fire department
averted a disastrous fire in the bust
ness section of the city. Mrs. Pickens,
who conducts a boarding establish
ment over Plath's jewelry store, on
Saturday had sent her little daughter
to a grocery to replenish her supply of
kerosene. Through some mistake
gasoline instead was put in the can. |
Sunday she had occasion to fill two
lamps used by one of her boarders. /
The boarder did not light the lamps /!
until shortly before II o'clock in the |
evening. The explosion which follow
ed injured no one but ignited the build
ing. The blaze was eXtinguished by !
the use of chemicals without turning
on water. otherwise the loss would
have been heavy. The building is
owned by the Misses Stree.
