THIEF ESCAPES WHILE
OWNER LOOKS FOR GUN
Daylight Robber Enters Home of
W. VI. Myers and Gets Purse
With Cards and Money.

When Wilbur NJ. Myers stepped
into his home at 1920 Tecumseh
av.. Monday evening, it was to con-
front a thief. who had evidently en-
tered but a moment before. The in
truder was armed and made his es-
cape while Myers was looking for
a gun. The police were notified and
Motorcycle officer Wesolek and De-
tective Lane went to the scene, fol-
lowed later by other patrolmen. but
the burglar had made good his es-
cape.
Apparently the thief had timed
his actions with the greatest care,
as Mrs. Myers left the house at sos
o'clock and her husband arrived at
$40 o'clock. giving the thief only
five minutes in which TO enter.
Although he was scared away be-
fore finishing his job. he managed
To take with him a purse contain
ing a card case and a couple of
dollars
The police made a thorough search
of the neigh borhood. but found no
trace of their quarry. He is de-
scribed as about SO years old, tall.
light complexion. smooth shaver.
and wearing a light suit and a
brown cap. 1t is thought likely that
ne will be apprehended before he
can escape from the locality.

THREE NURSES
GIVEN DIPLOMAS
Dr.. H. N. Miller Says Idea of
Making Money Alone is
Disastrous.

Three Young women received
their diplomas OF graduation from
the Epworth hospital training school
Monday evening with fitting exer-
Cises at the First Presbyterian
church.
DIT. VI. NJ Miller gave the address
OF the evening giving a brief talk
to the nurses on general health and
the vital importance Of studiously
carrying on their chosen work
He said in part.
Unless you enter your new work
with the idea that happiness lies
in the absorption in some vocation
which satisfies the soul as the great
working principle OF your lives. you
will not measure up 20 your possi-
bilities. nor will YOU be happy in
any true sense. If YOU find that
your vocation ICES not satisfy your
soul. but only satisfies a living then
give II up. enter a trade and be
happy.
Just here / want 90 protest
against the all too common prac-
tice of inviting young women TO
enter the nursing profession with
the alluring bait Of good living.
just as we try TO get young men
into the ministry for the same
reason. I say with all reverence,
God help the girl who becomes a
nurse with the idea of making
money. j can imagine no more mis-
cradle creature"
DR.. Miller named four essentials
in the success of "a nurse: Good
health. large hearted love of hui
mainly, a well developed sense Of
humor and a good technical train
ing"
TO nurse means TO serve, and 10
be worth while the service must be
given unselhshly and ungrudgingly,
and such service only is possible for
those who have great love Of hu-
manity in their hearts"
DR. q. a. Lppincott. president of
the hospital board. presented the
diplomas 10 Miss Inez Hepler. Miss
May Wentland. both of South Bend
and Miss Eva Caumman of Blu

informal reception for the nurses
was held after the program.

endeavored 10 secure a business
plan of government and finally de-
cided TO organize the city work
somewhat along the same line as
that of an industrial organization.
AS the board of directors employs
the best man that they can get TO
act as general manager of the bus
mess. and looks to him for results.
SO the city commission employs a
man. who is fitted by training and
experience for getting the best re-
suits, i'm the position OF city man
ager This centralizes authority
and fixes responsibility. so that
there is no question as TO where to
look for results. Another great ad-
vantage OF this form of government
is that there are no frequent cleo
ton changes To interfere with the
progress Of work that may be plan
ned and carried through.
Mr.. Switzer makes clear the diff
ference between the commission
form Of municipal government and
the commission manager form"

 Breckenridge Angry
 MT. Breckenridge has sent one or two telegrams in which he refers to Dr. Bailey and myself in a very angry manner, which is not important but he characterizes his own conversation which Dr. Bailey reported, as back stairs gossip" He does himself a great injustice by this, because he was a member of the Wilson admin istration and a most excellent assist ant secretary of war. Bue he entirely fails to deny that essential part of the conservation. Mir. Garrison said yesterday in Washington: I as not being interviewed on any subject. l have no statement of any kind to make So that he also refuses to deny the existence of the postscript which he certainly would have done if it had been a mere fabrication by Dr. Bailey, Dr. Bailey is gentleman of the highest character and standing and veracity. I have no doubt that he stated the conversation in substance with absolute truth"

Mother, Your child isn't naturally cross and peevish. See if tongue is coated; this is sure sign its little stomach, liver and bowels need a cleansing at once.

NEW GERMAN WAR MINISTER IS
 VON STEIN
tey Review Leased wire.)

BERLIN, Oct. 3O.-Lieutenant Gen eral von Stein has been appointed war minister by the emperor, says an official announcement from headquar- ters. General von Stein, who at the beginning of the war was quartermas- ter general, is popular throughout the empire on account of his laconic war bulletins issued from headquarters. Laterly he was commander of the 14th army corps on the west front.
 General von Stein succeeds Lieut. enant General von Hohenborn, who is given command of an army corps on the west front.
 The announcement explains that the change was deemed necessary be- cause of the increasing volume of re- quirements of the armies in the field demanded that the minister at home, who is responsible for military meas ures, must have thorough experience as an army commander, so that he may be qualified to judge of these re- quirements.

 My friend Major Breckenridge several times made remarks similar to those reported by Prof. Bailey I cannot swear to every minute detail for my memory is only human: but the general substance of your state ment is correct to my personal know ledge.
 "As I have telegraphed to Major Breckenridge to tell him of my pro- posed action, and as his remarks Eere not secret, and as Prof. Bailey has already interviewed the major. I feel obliged to state that I know your statement is true. With regard to Major Breckenridge he is one of the finest of American gentlemen and his distinguished family has been famous for chivalry in the south for years. His statement also is unquestionably true beyond any possibility of doubt.

 People don't know what nonsense they talk. One does a great injustice to an army commander by attributing to him a program. He certainly has in his head plan of war, a general view of war.
