JEWELS AND MONEY
 RETURNED TO0VVNER
Mrs. RidgIey Wilson, Central Figure of Odd Case, Recovers Small
 Fortune Held in Phoenix.

Mrs. Ridgley Wilson has recovered the small fortune which she left be- hind when she made her urconven- tional departure for Denver a short time ago. Through her Denver attor- ney and her counsel in Phoenix. Rob- ert s. Fisher, her affairs have been settled out of court and her jewels and money held at the Adams hotel for the past few weeks have been re- turned to her.
 Some time ago MT. Fishers profess sional services were sought in what proved to be a peculiar case. His cli- ent. Mrs. Wilson, seemed possessed with the idea that she was being doped or hypnotized. Her actions were such that Mr. Fisher called in medical aid and on the advice of physicians she was removed to the Sisters hospital. Before leaving for the hospital she turned her jewels and funds over to Mr. Fisher. who in turn checked ur the accounts with the sheriff, who held the key until the articles ana money were forwarded to the owner.
 While her attorney and the sheriff believed Mrs. Wilson to be in the hos pital. friends in the city advised her daughter in Denver of her mother condition. and she came to Phoenix at once and left the evening of her ar rival. her mother accompanying her to Colorado. In the meantime a case in- quiring into her sanity was pending iii Judge Lyman's court. which matter has been dropped

DARING BURGLARY
 IN CHANDLER STORE
White House Store Entered and Be- tween Three and Four Hundred
 Dollars Extracted.
Especial to The Republican,


 CHANDLER, March 16.-The most daring robbery in the history of Chan dler occurred last night, some time between twelve o'clock and morning. Burglars, giving every evidence of be- ing experts in their line, entered the White House store, owned by Mrs. John Derrick. and secured between three and four hundred dollars in cash Entrance was gained through a small window in the rear opening into the lavatory. Although the door leading from this room was locked on the out side. the burglars showed their famil- larlty with this sort of work by un- locking the door from the inside.
 Next in line of action came the opening of the safe Here again was shown the hand of the professional throwing the tumblers, without doing damage to the outside All the cash was taken. but while all the checks were tossed over. they were left on the desk, with the exception of one which was taken, as was also the change in the cash drawer amounting to about SIG. The gunnysacks were filled with shoes but were left in the store.
 Through all was shown evidence of carefully planned robbery, at the hands of those who make thiavery profession.

TEXAS ROAD PROBLEM

AffSlnF out OF the at&iCdu dSl-
tatIon comes a growing appreciation
Of the Importance OF good roads as
an aid to military defense. Because
OF the stupendous upheayal OF the
European war with its startling
agencies of destruction, and because
of the deplorable unpreparedness
of our own country to defend itself
AGAINST attack, there has been con-
fusion as to Just how far or along
what lines preparation should be
prosecuted From one quarter
comes a call for additional naval
equipment: from another. a greater
army. harbor and coast defenses.
But there IL one phase upon which
laIl seem TO be agreed, and that is
the movement for more and better
roads.
Here In America one road after
another has been tried With more or
less success, and opinion and prae-
,tiee have crystallized in favor of q
Ct mbination road. Highway engi-
