When one reflects upon the ease
with which men of ordinary bust

it seems that the birth rate must be
somewhat more rapid than that,

number of sharpers who get a liv-
ing by duping them.

BREAKS INTO HOUSE;
NOTHING Is MISSING

Are Made 10 Same
House.

Who is the mysterious man who
twice within a week has broken into
the home of w. Z. Peters. 1919 S.
Fifth St, River Park, remained there
for a time and then disappeared
without stealing a thing?
a week ago members of the Peters
family returned home and saw n
man jump out of a window. Nothing
in the house had been disturbed and
there was nothing missing.
Tuesday afternoon Mrs. Peters left
her home and went TO a theater. When
she returned home she found the back
door open. a chair which she had left
against the wall standing in the center
of the kitchen and the stub Of a cigar
lying on the edge of the table.
The house had not been ransacked.
Several pieces of jewelry, the silver
ware and an amount of money, all
of which was not concealed, was still
in the house.
The man who jumped out of the
window is described as wearing a dark
hat and a light coat which was but
toned tightly about the neck.
The Peters family and River Park
is unable TO solve the mystery unless
the mysterious stranger be but
searching for a few minutes peace in
a quiet home.
