BOTH in JAIL
HI. II. HOTCHKISS AND WIFE In
JAIL FOR TROUBLES AT
MURRAY'S STORE.

One of the most notorious stunts
eve pulled off in Madison now finds
Its elimination in the arrest of the
culprits involved.
Several months ago Mrs. H. r.
Hotchkiss, who had been employed
at the Mallory studio began cierking
In the Walter Murray store. For sew
eral months, in fact. all winter her
conduct was that becoming a lady OF
refinement and good nj She
was trusted and no fault was found
with her work.
Not long ago the wife of the pro-
prietor of the store became too i'll to
attend to business so Mr.. Murray en-
gagged Mrs. Hotchkiss' husband to as
sist in the sale of goods and look aft
er the small details always found
around a general store.
Now the proprietor being some
what given to the booze habit, passed
over his confidence to Hotchkiss and
let him conduct the business, with
the assistance of the latter's wife.
And here is where the story of the
wreck Of two young lives begins.
Mr.. Hotchkiss, knowing the desire
the proprietor had for drink, illegal
ly supplied him with whisky in great
quantities. In the interim of the
liquor stupefaction Mrs. Hotchkiss Il
alleged to have appropriated quite i
bulk of goods from the store.
Things did not loos Just right to he
brother OF the proprietor and iIotcb-
kiss and wife were put under su3pi-
ton when finally tie former was
placed under arrest for disposing OF
liquor illegally. He was brought in
to Justice Sponholz's court and
bound over under quite heavy bonds
which could not be furnished. Mr.
Hotchkiss now languishes in Jail and
his wife with him.
Mrs. Hotchkiss made good her es-
cape to Sioux Falls for a few days,
Ibut vas apprehended yesterday and
brought back Ito Madison to answer
to a charge Of transporting booze
a quantity of which was found in her
possession. She also faces a charge
of grand larceny. Her hearing could
not come up today because of the
fact that this is a holiday. SO. as
mentioned above, Mrs. Hotchkiss is
now behind the bars awaiting a pre-
lhminary hearing tomorrow.
The old saying. BE sure youc sin
win find you OUT is very applicable
in this affair which will put the
sting OF disgrace on what otherwise
might have been useful lives spcn,

SHOPLIf7ING
SOME BUNGLING CASES ATTENhA
PIED ON EGAN AVENUE

A wave of crime seems to have
swept the city the past few days and
weeks. Just yesterday a certain
young lady eighteen years of age
walked into one of the stores on
Egan ave. and pilfered a $500 dress
and an expensive muff. How bung-
lingly some steal! The lady in ques-
tion went home, donned the new
dress, tucked her dishonest fingers
into the deep warm folds of the St
olen muff and started on a dress
parade" down the venue Fate sin
gled her out. The proprietor of the
store from which the goods were
taken happened along the same
side of Egan avenue miss Lady" was
promenading. He confronted her
and inquired where she bought the
dress. Self guilt paled her coun-
tenance. On accompanying the own
err of the dress to the store, full con-
fession of the misdeed was made.
The price of the dress and muff was
handed over. And this is not the
only luStduCe Vi the hluu lulS WEEK.
The proprietor of another store eau
ght a woman open handed i'm the act
of removing goods surreptitiously.
This matter also was hushed up be-
cause restitution was effected. Won
