Furnishings Store
is Robbed of Stock

A store owned by H. c. Ellinghusen, at
liza vinton street. was broken into and
a large quantity of goods taken. The
thieves entered through a transom and
seemed to have gone over tho entire
stock, removing so much that an inven-
tory will have TO be taken before the ex-
tent of the loss can be determined. Shoes,
mems clothes, including suits. shirts, col
lar buttons, underwear and all of the
other items which go to make up the
wardrobe of a we'll dressed man, were
taken in quantities Neckties were taken
by the dozen. collars, socks caps. hats
were all taken by the box. No clue to
the thieves has yet been reported.

Bert Ayres Robbed
Twice in One Week

Bert Ayres. 14O9 North Eighteenth
street, has been robbed. And to make It
worse it Is the second time in week.
Besides that. he suspects someone and
has told the police who 1t is. He de-
mands instant action. as he cannot
afford to have this thief constantly prey
ing on his purse.
The first time the burglar. who entered
the house while Ayres was peacefully
sleeping, got very little, but the second
time he made off with is cents. 1t seems
that Ayres will hardly be able to convict
his man. even IL he catches him, for
money does so warp justice these days.

Demonstrative expressions of loyalty to the
king which bordered on delirium, marked the ac-
hvites of practically the entire population of Rome
last night. sea of humanity, tens of thousands Of
persons -surged through the streets. Later there
was gathering on Capitoline HILL where Prince
Colonna and the mayor had convoled a solemn sit
ting of the municipal council to consecrate in the
heart of the capital the war; Tremendous ap-
plauSe was evoked by the mayor patriotic address,
Prince Colonna, with the aldermen started for
the Qurnal to pay tribute to the king as the per-
sonifcation of Italy.
The streets leading to the palace of the king
were choked with vast crowds. The scene enacted
when the king and members of his family appeared
on balcony overlooking the square has had few
parallels in the history of Rome. The Roman hosts
were carried away upon the flood tide of Latin en-
thuSlaSm when the monarch appeared.
At the close of the kings brief appearance on
the balcony, he did unprecedented thing. He
gave orders that the italian flag be raised to the
balcony Then, amid the laundering cheers of tho
multitude he advanced to the national standard.
Folding it in his arms, he embraced it.
After the demonstration a crowd, carrying an
American flag, went to the residence of American
Ambassador Page There were loud cheers for
America and demands for revenge for the Lusitania
victims.
Great excitement was caused by the report
that Signor Bollat the Italian ambassador at Ber-
lin, had been assaulted while driving in the street
It was learned LATER however, that the incident
was not. so serious as first thought and that the
police had begun a rigid investigation
