LISTED HIS PRETTY VICTIMS
Chicago Tribune.)

Aurora, Hillary s. Sheldon, known here as the vacation burglar because of the large number of homes he robbed while the owners were away from home for the summer, had also a penchant for feminine beauty, it develops.
 A book he kept, which contains the names of scores of women in Chicago, Aurora and other cities, has been found. Besides the names of each woman was inscribed a tribute to her beauty-"b blonde, Tition. blue eyes, ex- Quisite finger nails, perfect eyebrows, Venus de Milo neck" being among the descriptive entries found.
 In addition there was a burglars blue book-customers past and pros pective. As soon as he visited a home Mir. Sheldon penciled a line through the name Many owners of homes robbed were thus honored.
 The police theory that he must have a woman accomplice because of his fondness for stealing feminine articles of apparel was confirmed when he was arrested. A Mrs. Sheldon was found at his home She too, was arrested.
 There is perhaps one class of cit izens which owe something to Shell don-the insurance men As one rob- bery followed another the women. fear ing they were to be the next victims. rushed to abtain policies on jewelry and clothing. More burglar insurance was written in three weeks here than in ten years before.

and thus all discrimination will be avoided. Where every one did so well in life, there should be no distinction in death On the contrary, standard or uniform headstones win be provided at the public expense, as in our na- tional cemeterial differing only in the inscriptions and symbols of religious faith, and possibly grouped in accord ance therwith. Perhaps national mon- uments may be erected. as well as state memorials, after being passed upon by an art commission and with the approval of the proper authorities thus making one or more enduring testimonials to the courage of the American soldier and to the decisive part played by the United States in the great war.
 The British government does not contemplate the return of it's dead. The attitude of France in regard to it's dead has already been stated
 Among the many who elected to leave the remains of their abroad, were two of our most distinguished citizens, both service men, the one an ex-soldier and ex-president, the other a sailor; the late Colonel Theo- dore Roosevelt and Admiral Gustav Kaemmerling, United States Navy. each of whom wrote in effect that he could conceive of no greater honor for his dead son than to rest where he fell. fighting the foes of civilization. upon battlefield of France.
 The nation feels to it's depths the loss Of it's sons who gave their lives to it. It mournS for them and sym- pathozes with the families whose grief by reason of personal loss lies upon them with particular poignancy. A comforting thought is that in the hour of the nations need her sons respond ed nobly and with full devotion. What can be a better testimonial to the yalor and devotion of her dead sons and the respect and love in which their mem ories are held, than that the nation should secure and maintain in perpet- uity vast cemeteries in France-ceme- teries in themselves, with their thou sands of graves. will arouse sentiments and emotions in the pilgrims of future generations, which mere monuments can never do? The graves of those dead soldiers, who are to be returned and delivered to families will no doubt be cared for and revered during the lifetime of the members of the families But would it not be comfort to know that the bodies of their soldier dead are resting with those of their com. rades in a place to be maintained ana cared for as long as the nation en. dures, each by its presence contribut, , ing to a shrine which will be the oh. 1 1ect of pilgrimages for thousands oi Americans now living and for un- numbered thousands yet unborn?

WITHOUT TROUSERS PROVES POOR NAY
 ID MEET FRIENDS

Meatless. wheatless and eatless days of the war period had their disad- vantages, but inconvenience exper- fenced on those days was nothing to the bangs of desire that one, D. A. Salayar, entertained on ''Trouserless Sunday"
 Yesterday was ''trouserless Sunday for Salayar. Not by an edict of the war department nor even the result of an official order of the city police department. It was due entirely to the lack of judgment of some unknown miscreant who visited Salayar at his sleeping quarters at 510 South Seventh avenue some time Saturday night.
 Being strong of mind and body, Sa- layer had planned a day of recreation yesterday. His trousers had been neat ly pressed in preparation for the festiv- ities.
 But it was evident that some one else had also planned a visit to his "best girl" For when Salayar awoke Sunday morning, his trousers were missing. Likewise, his 'roll' of s12.60 and a hat which he "conservatively values at $50.
 Salayar was patiently awaiting the return of his trousers when last heard from.

Purpose Of EpiI In World
 .Subect For Local Sermon

world, God changed Adams environ ment, driving our first parents out of Eden to live where the ground had been cursed. In their fallen nature, Adam and Eve needed different en- yironment from the one they had in their purity and innocense. God could have placed them in a new planet, or created another earth for them; or He might have destroyed this first pair and started a new race. But such was not His purpose. Hence this world with it's sin, natural calamfties, pain and death is the best possible place to test the human race in it's present con dition. If this were not so. God would change our environment for a better one.
 All Creation to Be Redeemed
 ''The creation itself also shall be de- livered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the chil- dren of God" It is literally true as the apostle says: "The whole creation groaneth and travaiIeth in pain to- gether until now.I Not only among human beings but in the animal world there is a vast amount of suffering. But there is a promise of deliverance some day. After Satan is destroyed
  come perfect. St. Paul speaks of ''this present evil world" from which the children of God are to be delivered. But this present evil world, too, will be changed. Jesus Christ came into the world not only to save men from sin, but to redeem all creation from the evil effects of sin. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil" John 3: 8. I can not believe that cyclones, floods mad earthquakes belong to the natural order of things any more than do sin, sickness and death.
 There was time when they did not exist, and they will all have an end. Hear these wonderful words coming down from heaven, revealed to St. John on the island of Patmos: And there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying. neither shall there De any more pain: for the former things are passed away. He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God and he shall be my son." Rev. 21: 1, '.

 made a heap of noise, Then we'd go for swim in the creeks

 and the ache, The way to the creek is the way I
 would take. The way to the creek. singin' in its

 used to eat, Then set out on the step in the dark
 an wash my feet. Then I'd stumble up to bed, with my
 mother ct the stairs. From the day at the creek fore the world was filled with cares.

Considering the fact that it is on rec
ord that more than tWo-thirds Of the
members of each house will support
the federal suffrage amendment some
.suffragists have thought it unneces-
sary to go to the senators and repre-
sentatives for any further assurance.
But the National Women's party
knows that however sincerely a man
may favor measure. the measure will
not become law unless there is, suffi-
Gent pressure for it to force the SEN
ate and the house to give it precedence
over many other matters which also
press for settlement. The deputation
of the National Women's party are
being undertaken to show the. support
ers of the federal suffrage amendment
that women in their own constituent
|cies are behind them in their work for
the amendment. They also act as a
reminder that the National Women S
party is active and alert, and that it
will not suffer the putting aside or de-
laying of the amendment. Every rep
resentative and every senator will hear
from the party, and if it be true thai
congress is to be called almost imme-
diately the next few weeks will be a
time of stir and activity in the branch
es of the National Women's party
throughout the states.
