    MUI MAKES
II GOOD HAUL
Enters Home of W. J. Streight
and Secures Ten Dollars and
Three Watches.
A burglar last night entered the
home of W. J. Streight and secured
iooty to the extent of some ten dol
lars in cash and three gold watches.
The man was seen as he crossed Main
street after the raid by Mr. Vallery
and Mr. Melslnger from the country
and is quite easiy Identified by their
descriptions. The police were noti
fied by Mr. Streight of the robbery
Immediately after It happened and
at once Bet out in pursuit of the mis
creant. A search of the Burlington
yards was instituted by Officers
Henry Trout and H. M. Young as
sisted by MessrsA Melslnger and Val
lery and the man was found. He was
met by Mr. Trout who covered hlra
with his revolver and proceeded to
search him. The pocket book belong
ing to Mr. Streight was taken from
the man and Officer Trout proceed
ed to examine It. He had a card In
the book which the officer started to
read when the fellow made a sud
den leap down the bank into the
Missouri bottom. Officer Young was
supposed to Lave him covered with
his revolver while Trout was search
ing him but ho seems to have failed
and the man made good his escape,
although Trout emptied his gun into
the weeds where he had disappeared.
The man was taken near the pump
house and about one half mllo north
of the llurllngton Btation. Chief
Ralney and Sheriff Qulnton were sent
in pursuit of the fleeing man toward
Oreapolls but they found no trace of
him. Officer Trout was sent down
toward the ferry to watch the escape
in that direction but the man never
showed up. He Is described as a
short, heavy set man with striped
pants and the description given the
sheriff Is so complete as to lead to
the belief that he will be apprehend
ed. The work of Messrs. Vallery
and Melslnger was much appreciated
by the police as they did a lot of
good work and realiy furnished the
police with the right Information as
to who to look for. This was the
only serious crime perpetrated In the
city during the day.

the best of care from the family.
Mr. Foster Is getting along in years,

is always at work when ever in fairly
good health and we hope his illness
will prove of but short duration.

"Fourteen months." answered Mrs.
Grayblll.
"I have been reading." said Craig
head, "a work on the 'Morphology of
the Crawfish.' It holds me enthralled.
The person who falls to glean wisdom
from the crawfish has never tested his
intelligence with s liare toe or studied
his morphology."
Mrs. Grayblll looked at Craighead
sternly.
"Don't poser said she. "Don't think
that 1 want a beautiful lesson in every
thing. If I have been a minister's wife.
Tell me of Mr. De Land and and Sa
die Brown and the chop suey and and
that life. ' Tell me, Mr. Craighead!"
The point her u that there was no
danger of Craighead's running of?
while she listened with such breath
less Interest to his adventures. He ex
plained his natural transition from the
study of artistic anatomy to surgery
and then through medical Jurispru
dence to law, and over all gloomed the
shadow of his wonderful, his poetic,
his epic dissipations. Mrs. Grayblll
was shocked, but she asked for nil the
horrible tale that he might so relieve
It that nothing-would ever, ever Induce
him to drink again.
"Only one thing would ever do that,"
said he, "or maybe two. The pangs of
despised love"
"Which you have never experi
enced?" she it sited.
"Never." said he. "ns I am now
likely to!"
"And the other shock that might
overturn your self control?"
"The failure of Carson." replied
Craighead. "That would put me down
und out down and out!"
The relations of Craighead to Mr.,,
Waddy became more and more strain
ed, for the former could uo longer ex
plain satisfactorily the failure of Car
son to appear with his airship. Final
ly as a lust resort Mr. Waddy resolved
o take Craighead and Mrs. Grnyblll
ond go to the south to settle the whole
problem. Thus It was that the three
were at Palmetto Beach when Captain
Ilarrod with the launch passed
through Strong's bayou with Irglnla
and Mrs. Stott on the way to the cabin
where the first Carson aeronef was
preparing for Its delayed flight north.
Tickets had beeu bought to Palmetto
r,eaeb on Craighead's statement that
Carson was here.
"Ah!" said Craighead. "How nat
ural it all looks'. 1 seem never to have
left these balmy. If somewhat sandy,
shades. Dear old Yupon Hedge inn!"
Mr. Craighead was halted by a liver-
ed attendant.
"Beg pardon, sir." said he. "This Is
privute clubhouse. The Inn's over
there!"
"Oh. certainly." replied Craighead
All cement walks look alike to me."
"The one over at the Inn looks Uke

And the telephone was hung up.
They vent through the canal In
great style. They skimmed the black
waters of Freshwater lake and landed
at the shelly hummock. While the
boatman searched for the path' to the
gulf beach they sat on the shell
mound, fascinated ty the strange land
scape. The expanse of black pools
and reedy marsbes between them and
the line of surf, which they could hear
roaring 'ueyoi.C l!ie Canes, was dotted
with clumps of tall pines snd splotch
ed with scrub oak thickets.
"Those pluea." said Mrs. Grayblll
"are like puiuis. Why. what's that?"
exclaimed Mrs. GraybllL
Rising from beyond the dunes, as If
from the sea. there soared a great
something which moved like a bird.
It swelled like a magic ship as it
neared them, sailing low and dominat
ing the sky like a cloud. It came with
the most amazing speed. Uke an eagle

facile that all Impression of weight
was abolished, and the huge thing
filled the mind with the notion of levi

"Oh, of course." said Craigtiead. bis

Mrs. Grayblll was running along the
path after the guide. Mr. Waddy puff
ing along behind, hopelessly unplaced.
"Did you see Carsou?" said Craig
head. "And there was a girl with
him."
Emerging from the dunes, they saw
the airship skimming off along the line
of beach foam. Down the beach stood
Mrs. Stott uud Captain Ilarrod. look
ing after the airship In amazement
and delight. Then, turning like a
frightened heron, she swept seaward
and came down the wind like an ar
row. Virginia wnvliig nn Amerieuu
Daj over the rail and Theodore swing
ing his hut.
Suddenly as she passed them with a
maneuver so astounding for aerial
craft that they could scarcely believe
their eyes she stopped. The sharp
whir of the heutlng wing sections told
of the sudden reversal of their stroke
and of the unprecedented phenomenon
of the almost Instant arrest of such a
machine in midair. It was an unnec
essary strain, thought the captain.
He saw the reason, however, a mo
ment later. A black slimy nose the
nose of the Stickleback poked Itself
above water right ahead of the Vir
ginia. A bont that looked stove and
sinking drew away from her. with a
struggling, gesticulating figure In It
waving a signal of distress. The slimy
nose sank, and the apparent eastaway
was left ns If to perish unless rescued
by the Virginia.
Accepting the humane task, lower,
lower, lower sank the aeronef, until
Its car appeared almost to touch the
wav?s. The man In distress seemed
to throw something like a lasso over
the nacelle of the airship, and the
great bird rose slightly, as if to be
safe from the billows. The Stickle
back again peeped above the waves,
her manhole opened, and the castaway
of the stove boat went down into the
submarine.
It wn absolutely beyond the power
f any one ooklng on to guess what
was taking nlace. Why had the man
made the signal for help. If the sub
marine was standing by? If the com
ing of the submarine to hW rescue was
unexpected, why had he not cast off
the line from the aeronef ' Why And
suddenly I hey all felt that something
sinister, something devilish, wus tak

Theodore, a strvuui from Virginia.

and from her open manhole came the
crack of u pistol a pistol aimed at
the airship. Then she sank ugaln. and
the airship was drawn downward by
the line. Struggling toward land,
hanging by the fatal thread, like a
trapped bird, she strained at her teth
