ROB LANCE HOME
OF VALUED GEMS
Cook Meets Burglar Face
to Face and is Told to
Stand Still.
WALKING THIEF
Strange Robber of A. III. Lance
Carried Black Bag and
Gentleman's Cane.
BULLETIN.

Several hundred dollars worth Of
jewels, stolen Tuesday night from
the home of S. H. Lance on Prairie
avenue, and valued by the family
at many times their intrinsic
worth, lay untouched in an alley
back of Sheridan road until noon
today, while the police were cover
ing the city with detectives and
police in an effort to locate the
stolen gems. The police received
a report this morning that two
travelling bangs were lying in the
alley back of the Frank Callahan
residence, 613 Sheridan road. Ser
geant of Detectives Rock and other
detectives were at that moment out
working on the Lance robbery.
Chief Logan answered the call with
: Officer Buchanan and when they
came upon the bags, it was found
that one bore the initials "E. L. LIZ
1t seemed too good to be true that
the two bags were the stolen ones,
but the chief in the presence of
the others opened the bags and
behold, there were the shining
gems, intact.
There was chisel in one of the
bags and a handkerchief, the only
clues left by the burglars, The
police believe that there were two
men who worked" the robbery,
and that they entered the house
by gently manipulating the door.
1t is believed that the burglars
making their getaway with their
loot, became frightened when they
discovered the police on the look
out for them and the avenues of
escape from the city well under
guard.
IL cannot enough praise the
vigilance and activity of the po-
lice" said Mrs. Lance this after
noon. II rejoice to have again the
little treasures my mother left
me, and know that if the police
had not helped, the robbers would
never have abandoned the jewels.
do not want to minimize the eff
forts of the officers in any way"
Among the articles taken was
some silver plate, silver cross,
unset opaIs, four diamond studs,
four diamond cuff links, amber and
pearl strings of beads. There was
more jeweIry in the house of still
greater value which was untouched.
C. III. Nellis, 421 Prairie avenue,
son-in-law of Mrs. Callahan, was
the one who notified the police.
Nellis was summoned by Mrs. Cal
lahan when she found the bags in
the alley, and he at once called up
on Chief Logan.

Today's Question:

Which have you noticed take longer
to spend-a dollar, man or a woman
Answers:
Miss Mamie Yerkes, Main street. dry
goods clerk wait on man very SOL
dom, but l should Judge that, if every
man spends his dollar as grudgingly as
a good many women | know, Pm sur
prised that they ever buy anything.
should say that a woman is much
slower in making up her decisions than
man.
Miss Jane Harris, Wisconsin street,
clerk would say that it takes a wo-
man longer to decide what she wants
than a man. A man usually enters q
store, and he knows ahead of time what
he wants to buy and buys it without
dickering. But woman goes in to
find what she wants first and then buys
it,
Miss W. W., Rowland avenue, clerk
In bank there's not much choice in
the amount of time you take to do your
business. / see no reason why it should
take anyone longer to spend dollar
than anyone else. You might be able
to buy more for that dollar in one store
than you could in another and then it
would take you longer to pick them
out, For instance, dollar in the dime
store would get lot more things than
it would in shoe store. Chow
strangely
Henry Tobin, Milwaukee avenue,
confectionery clerk-I've never noticed
much difference l should think,
though, that since woman has great
deal of responsibility in spending the
family money, she takes longer and
more pains with it While man who
handles his own money doesn't need to
hesitate-if he isn't married If he is
well, I've never seen married man
with money

Jackson, Mich. Michigan Cen
trail railroad officials at noon to-
day ordered the company's locomo-
tive repair shop here closed in
definitely when majority of the
shop men who walked out Satur-
day failed to reconsider their ac-

The railroad announced last week
that unless all strikers were at
work today the shops would be
closed. Only $50 men appeared
and the closing order followed.

years old, with sallow complexion and
stopped shoulders. Curiously enough
he carried, according to the descrip-
ton of the cook, a walking stick in
one hand as we'll as black handbag
in the other.
"Stand where you are and don't
move" announced the burglar crisply,
as the cook facing him gave a cry
Of terror.
The walking-stick burglar then went
through the den on the east side of
the house and out upon screened
porch where he made his escape. The
cook waited until he was gone then ran
across the street to neighbor where
she sent in a call for the police.
Sergeant Kirsch on duty at the police
desk, received the call, and after send
ing Officers TusIer and L. Bauschelt,
followed with officers Hannaway, Rupp,
OHare and Clifford. No clue to per-
son of the description given by the
cook was found in the neighborhood
which was carefully combed over by
the officers. But in the house, par
ticularly upstairs, everything was
topsy-turvy, showing the tracks of the
burglar who had picked his bag of loot
and fed. Mrs. Lance was summoned
from the Country club, and her first
survey showed her to her grief that
most of her family treasures in the
way of jeweled bits of corral and
jade we're gone.

Chicago, Ill-Striking railway shop
men who walked out in answer to the
nationwide call from the headquarters
of the six shop craft unions here last
Saturday, were reported by the roads
as drifting back to work today in
groups of uncertain size.
Today was considered the turning
point in the strike of the $4,000 to
100000 workers. Although responding
generally to the call last Saturday, rail-
road officials insisted that many Of the
defectons were due to the desire Of
the men to take a holiday over the
Fourth of July.
Local union reports to the Office of
B. M. Jewell, head of the shop men,
reiterated the union assertion that the
strike was one hundred per cent eff
fective at all points reporting. Main
tenance of way men, despite the deci
sion to postpone strike action were also
reported to be joining the walkout.
Freight handlers, clerks and station
airy fremen and oilers Joined the ranks
Of the deserving shop men at various
points, although fully as many shops
reported that men were returning to
work today. The railroads generally
were advertising for new men to take
the strikers places and several roads
were completing arrangements to han
die their repairs at outside shops.
Conflicting reports came from the
Pennsylvania shops at Pittsburg, both
sides claiming gains today. Double
pickets were placed about the shops
and yards at New York City and heavy
picketing continued at Chicago.
The Chicago, Milwaukee eand st. Paul
and a dozen other roads announced
fats, setting final date on which the
strikers must return to work or forfeit
their seniority rights.
D. w. Helt, head of the Brotherhood
of Railroad Signalmen, said that al
though his men were voting, there was
little likelihood that strike call would
be issued Immediately as the returns
had not thus far justified it.
