JIMMY" BURGLAR GETS
$22 FROM BRINKOPF STORE

After scaling an 8-foot fence,
smashing window in the rear of the
Al Brinkopf Furniture store at 533
Broadway and "jimmying" open the
cash register, lone burglar early yes
terday morning escaped with about
S22 cash.
The window opening from the office
in the rear part of the store building
had been broken with a half a brick,
the upper sash lowered to afford an
entrance. The burglar apparently
could not make the cash register con-
trivances open the drawer, so rum
maging about in a workrO0m in the
rear, he obtained a chisel which he
used as a "jimmy" and forced the
drawer.
The register was cleaned of money.
The man departed through the window
by which he had gained an entrance.
The robbery was not discovered till
yesterday morning when Mr.. Brin-
kopf and his clerks opened the store
for work. 1t is believed the robbery
was pulled off" after the patrolman
had retired from the Broadway beat.

CAPE SOCIETY
FOLK NARROWED
BY HIGH WATER
Young Men and Women Are
Held Near DOniphan
By Flood.
GIRLS ARE TICKLED
OVER PREDICAMENT
Dance, Play Cards and Sing,
They tell Russell DearmOnt,
Who Escapes.

Five young society girls with their
chaperon and young men accompany
ing them, all campers from Cape Cir
ardeau, are maroOned in club house on
the banks of the Current River near
Doniphan, Mo, as a result of the
heavy storm and flood that has raised
the river far out of its banks.
The party is quartered in a club
house which nestles high among the
hills along the Current River, but the
only means of egress left open to the
campers is by boat over a tortuous
course in the river whose current is
doubly swift.
The party went to the club house as
guests of Clint Murray, postmaster at
Doniphan, a week ago last Sunday.
They had intended to remain at the
club one week. Murray had obtained
the privileges of the club exclusively
for his guests that week.
In the party were Miss Ruth Glenn,
Miss Rose Leming, Miss Mary Grit
fifth, Miss Barrett and Miss Weber,
with an aunt of Miss Griffith as
chaperon. The men were in addition
to Murray, DR.. F. D. Rhodes, L. L. AL
bert, William Leming.
Russell Dearmont had made ar
rangements to join the party couple
days later in the week, having been
detained in the Cape on business.
He was unable to get away till late
in the week, when the storm had set
in that developed into the typhoon that
drenched the entire Mississippi Val
ley.
When Mr. Dearmont reached Doni-
phan and prepared to proceed to the
club house, it was raining in a down
pour. The river was rising and the
current was dangerously swift. The
only way of going was by small boat
or skiff.
He proceeded a short distance, but
returned. On his return to DOniphan
he was able to get telephone connec-
ton through to the club house and ex-
plain the cause of his absence.
b Over the telephone the members of
the party assured him that they were
enjoying the treat at the club. Card
games, music and dancing were
favorite diversions.
DearmOnt subsequently had CONVEX
sations with them after the fury of
the storm had been increased and
learned everyone was safe He then
returned to the Cape.
Yesterday afternoon he received a
telegram from one of the men saying
the flood river had marooned the par
ty and they will be unable to get away
for another day or two. All members
of the party were safe and in good
spirits, the wire indicated. Dearmont
was requested to notify the parents of
each of the girls in the encampment.

AUTOS
LITTER ROAD
OUT TO JACKSON
Four Put Out of Commission
On First Nightof Home
Coming.
BUGGY PUTS HAYNES
OUT OF COMMISSION
Negroes Spilled When Auto Hits
Them and William Book
in Ditch.

Three automobile collisions Jared
traffic to and from Jackson last night,
and while four machines were put out
of commission no one was injured.
Two large machines, which could
have been no more crippled by dash
through Poland, are standing beside
the Jackson road just back of the
Fairgrounds, were deserted shortly be-
fore 5 o'clock this morning, but their
owners have not as yet been identi-
fled.
The occupants of one of the autos
were negroes, according to autoists
who passed shortly after the collision.
The machines struck head-On and the
fronts and wheels of both were smash
ed
The drivers of the two machines
climbed out of the wrecks and began
to tongue-lash each other, each deny
ing he was to blame for the accident.
After threatening to pummel each
other, they arranged a compromise
and walked into the city.
Upon reaching town one of the men
telephoned the Haynes Motor Com
pany and requested that a machine be
sent out to the scene of the wreck and
tow in the cripples.
But the big Haynes car had also
been out on the Jackson road and it
met disaster. Theodore Heise, the
chauffeur, who was driving the ma
chine, said he attempted to go round
another car, several miles from this
city, and struck buggy driven by a
farmer. The light from the approach
ing auto, he said, blinded him and he
struck the rig without seeing it.
The farmer sustained the loss of
one tug, but the automobile was
smashed. One of the front lights was
broken, an axle was sprung, the mud
tenders were flattened and it is be-
lieved to have been internally hurt.
Heise was able to drive his auto
back into the city, but the machine
was so badly crippled that it could not
tow another car. When he told the
men who wer Elm the smash-up at the
Fairgrounds his story of hardluck,
they decided to wait until this morn
ing to bring in their cars.
William Book, who also was headed
for Jackson, met with a mishap just
two miles from the county seat. He
was bowling along at safe clip, and
as he started round a curve, two bright
lights flashed into his face. In his eff
forts to avoid collision, he made his
machine climb high bank and when
it reached the top, it decided to go
on over which it did. Mr.. Book and
companion were badly frightened, but
uninjured They walked into Jackson
and rode back to the Cape in a rented
car Mr. Books machine spent the
night in the ditch, but was not badly
damaged.
