CHICAGO, Mar. 29. - Two ban- dits, carrying potted Easter lilies in their arms, rode the elevator to the penthouse of N. E. Bensinger, millionaire billiard and bowling promoter, Sunday and rode down again with $29,0OO worth of Mrs. Bensinger's jewels.
 Wont Norman be surprised when he sees these flowers?" ex- claimed one on the ride up. They got off at the roof of the Common wealth Hotel, strolled into the Ben singer home and there presented Mrs. Bensinger with the flowers.
 Thereupon they pulled out guns, herded the Bensingers and three servants into a bedroom and forced Mrs. Bensinger to hand over her jewelry. They locked their victims in closet, rode down the elevator and said, so that the operator could hear: Norman certainly did appreciate our lilies"
