LAUGHTER BRINGS
WOMAN'S ARREST
Held as Robber After Series
of Spectacular HoId-ups
Terrorize Chicago.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, October 15.-An epidemic
of robberies, three of them carefully
planned and executed by several men
each. and the other involving a
woman who fired at an elevated sta
ton agent when he foiled her and a
man companion, gave the police some
busy moments today.
Three robbers terroriZed the pro-
prietor and four employees of Julius
brock, Inc, and got away with three
trunks full of furs valued at $4,000.
Pedestrians Are Endangered.
The most spectacular robbery was
that of two officials of the Electrical
Construction Co, who were waylaid
by at least five men in an automobile
and robbed of $4,000, while IS of the
men they were about to pay were
held at bay. Dozens of pedestrians
were endangered by a subsequent
chase at 20 miles an hour in which a
moter cycle policeman was distanced
by the robbers automobile.
Scores of persons on the near West
Side saw Michael Kissane. 61-year-old
restaurateur, shot down when he tried
to resist three men who leaped upon
him from an automobile in front of
his restaurant. His assailants hur-
riedly searched his clothing, but got
only 500 of $500 he carried
Laugh Exposes Two.
Her harsh, ironical laughter when
a police squad warned her and her
male companion against hold-up men
led to the arrest early today of Mrs.
Margaret Bayne, "a, and Herbert
Smith. 25, and their confession that
they actually were the robbers against
whom they had been warned.
They confessed that they had been
foiled in an attempt to rob Francis
Prile, an elevated station agent. when
he turned off the lights and rang
police alarms when Mrs. Bayne poked
q pistol at him. Baked in the rob-
berry, Mrs. Bayne fired once at Prile
as he dropped to the floor.
Mrs. Bayne said she was born in
Houston, Texas, but left there with
her parents when years old. She
said her husband was county police
man. but that they had been separated
five months.
She confessed, the police said. that
she and Smith had robbed another
elevated station from which they OBJ
tanned SIS and II tickets.
81 don't thing those cops would
have any idea who we were if hadn't
laughed out Of turn" she said, rue

THE IMPERIAL METHOD.
We come to that strange journey of
Paul in which he was so strangely
guided across the stretches of Asia
Minor to the sea and beyond into Eu-
rope. The Spirit of Jesus suffered
them not to go-would not permit
them to go into Bithynia, into Asia.
Certainly, but how was the message
couched? Paul had been sick and
the low plains along the sea were full
of his old malaria and he dared not
at that season risk further attack
upon his weakened body. 1t was the
voice speaking thru the circumstances
of sickness in which he heard the
Spirit of Jesus speaking Many a
man has found a sick bed the door to
God and the way of increased service.
Then at Troas he found an explana-
ton in the vision. 1t was here, too,
that DR.. Luke called, it may be to
minister to the sick man, perhaps
urged him to visit Macedonia from
which place he had just arrived.
Jesus said, "The pure in heart shall
see God" The heart with no selfish
motive can see the face of God thru
the veil of circumstance and can catch
His speech in the din of the noise of
the world. True it is that to the lis
tening soul God will speak and to
the seeker guidance will be given.
"Can man be sure in the hour of
perplexity that he will be rightly
led?" asked Boreham. 81 am certain
of it," cried his companion as he
leaped from his chair, eff he will but
give God time! Remember that as
long as you live," he added. "Give
God time!" And Paul was just as
certain.
