ROBBERS SECURE $1,000 WORTH
OF JEwELRv AND CLOTHING
At UNDERWOOD.
ESCAPE TO COUNCIL BLUFFS
ON RAILROAD HANDcAR
Second Raid in Same Section Of Iowa
Within Recent Days-Portion OF
Jeweiry Belonged TO Omaha Con-
Germ and 10 Observation-Disclosures
Handcar Found.

Council Bluffs, Dec. ga second
raid by handcar thieves was made
early Thursday morning on a country
store when they entered and robbed
the general merchandise store OF
Adams B. Jensen at Underwood, OF
jewelry and clothing valued at more
than $4,000 and 500 in cash. There is
no clue to the robbers.
Two men or more are believed to
have been implicated In the robbery
and are thought to be the same men
who a week ago robbed the postoffice
and general stores OF Roy Watts and
III. J. Hansen at Bentley, three miles
east of Underwood, on the Great West
ern.
Entrance to the Underwood store
was made by cutting panel from the
rear door and raising the bar holding
the door. The iewelry was taken from
the show cases in which 1t had been
allowed to remain over night as the
firm has no safe. About $1,000 of the
ieweiry belonged to the Brodegard
Jewelry Company Of Omaha and was
insured.
Part Of the cash taken was found in
the cash register and the remainder on
a shelf in the back end Of the store
where it had been hidden.
On Handoar to Bluffs.
Only shoes, caps and sweaters were
taken by the thieves from the clothing
stock. An inventory Of their stock
Thursday morning led the owners to
believe that the men took only enough
o. these things to clothe themselves.
Mr.. Jensen said Thursday morning
they thought the stolen goods were
taken about o'clock as family living
near the store reported that their dog
barked very fierceiy for some minutes
about that hour No investigation was
made by the neighbors. and the rob
berry was not discovered until the store
was opened for business Thursday
morning..
Underwood is fifteen miles northeast
Of Council Bluffs on the Rock Island
railroad The town is small and has
no police protection and no street
lights, enabling the thieves te make
their haul and get away without detec-
ton.
Hsndear Found Near City.
The handcar belonging to the rail-
road at Underwood was found late IN
the day under the Rock Island crossing
on Woodbury. avenue near the city. The
men are thought to have continued on
to Council Bluffs or Omaha. where
they made good their escape in the
same fashion as the Bentley thieves.
The sheriff's Office and the police were
notified Immediately on discovery OF
the robbery and both are now working
on the case.
Detectives from the city force have
been watching the pawn shops and
second hand stores In Council Bluffs
and Omaha for wearing apparel taken
from the Bentley stores. but thus far
have found no trace Of any OF the
missing clothing The two gangs

TALK ABOUT THE CROPS, NOT
THE WAR.

Chicago Herald: After an automo-
bile trip of 1000 miles the editor of
the Farm Journal declares that the
well-known picture Of the country
store filled with rural philosophers
settling the affairs of the world no
longer stands for fact, but merely
for tradition
Not "ne farmer in ten among the
hundreds talked with broached the
topic of the war. Even the most con-
versational of country storekeepers
was not in haste to open the subject.
They all had something more inter-
estjne to talk about, and that was the
big crops.
The American farmer is going to do
we'll this year, especially the grain
farmer. As for the city dwellers who
feel the pinch of higher food prices,
let them remember that they are sell
ers as well as buyers, and that the
farmer is going to be better custom
er than usual because he will have
more money to spend.
What American city people most
need just now is to take their minds
off the shastly war tragedy and turn
them to the mum berless opportunities
for prosperity that are opened by Eu-
rope's present retirement from pro-
ductive industry

THE NEW POPE.

The election of Cardinal Della
Chiesa, of Bologna. was a surprise to
the world. and there is reason to be-
lieve that it was a surprise to the
college Of cardinals which elected him.
From time to time. since the death Of
Pope Plus y. articles by very we'll in
formed men have discussed the pos
sibilities of this election and the quail
tiles of the various men who might
possibly he elevated to the high rank
of pope. In not one of these articles,
so far as we have seen, has the name
of the cardinal been mentioned. It
had not occurred to any Of the writer's
that his election was possible
The newly elected pope had been a,
cardinal but four months. and We re-
call no case in which man has been
chosen as the head of the Catholic
church after SO short an experience as
a cardinal. He has. however, had
wide experience in the MANAGEMENT
OF church affairs, having been en-
trusted with many important mis-
sions, and having served under Ram
polla as substitute secretary of state.
From the fragments which have
been published concerning the char
acter and temperament Of the new
pope. it appears that those who pre-
dicted that this election would mark
decided turning of the church from
the ultra. conservatism which has
marked the administration of Plus x.
were entirely mistaken. Benedict XIV.
though more widely experienced than
his predecessor in large ecclesiastical
affairs, appears to have been eoually
fearful Of the growth Of the demo-
cratic spirit within and without. be-
ltev1ng that this menaced the recozni- :
ton Of the authority of the church
and the security of the foundation Of
its faith. Accordingly we may expect
from the Vatican continuation Of
vigorous opposition to so-called mod
ernity, with all that the name i'm
plies
