The Weight
of Evidence
The supremacy of the Pianola over all other Players was positively settled when the great
Steinway Piano Company decided that none other but the genuine DUO ART Pialona would be
allowed installed in a STEIN WAY Piano,
, Everybody who makes a Player will claim his product is the best, but can any other manu
facturer corroborate it? When, however, STEINWAY & SONS puts its seal of supremacy upon the
DUO ART Pialona it should' convinee not only the unbiased, but also the most skeptical.
We are sole distributors for the DUO ART Pianolas. Our prices are positively the lowest in .
the United States our terms the easiest.
Remember, the DUO ART Pianola is installed in the STEINWAY, WEBER, GEO. STECK,
WHEELOCK and STROUD pianos.

BABY BANDITS IN
ATTEMPT TO HOLD
UP LONE WOMAN
Foiled, However, As She Takes
Other Side of the
Street
The "baby burglar," 10 years old,
who, in juvenile court a week ago
told of robbing a grocery store at
2 in the morning, was no more re
markable for juvenile crime than
two more "baby bandits" in court
yesterday, who confessed to lying in
wait in the weeds with loaded re
volvers to hold up a woman. The
boys are Arthur Madison, 11, 3024
South ' Eleventh street, and Harry
Simon, 10, 3006 South Tenth street.
Both confessed that Arthur's re
volver, a .38 calibre was loaded.
Harry said his wasn't loaded, but
that Arthur threatened to shoot him
if he didn't jump out of the weeds
when the woman came along and
hold her up.
The two explained tht they were
under the influence of a "master
mind" in the person of John Carnett,
16 years old, a high school boy, who
also was in court. They said Car
nett overawed them by stating that
he "had police protection" and
would keep them from going to jail
if caught.
Tohn. the bovs said, out Tessie
Tames' ideas in their heads. olavinir
cowboy and telling tales about shoot
ing. Indians in Montana.
The two younger boys hid in the
weeds on South Eleventh street,
waiting for a woman to pass. She
passed there every day, but this day
she was on the opposite of the
street
The unlooked for development
disconcerted the boys, and the "mas
ter mind not peing present they
didn't know how to act. They were
discovered later with their revolvers
and taken in hand by the juvenile
authorities.
The three were paroled to their
parents and relatives upon promises
to quit the bandit business. All
three were said to be exceptionally
bright at school.

GROCERYMAN ARE
GIVEN 10 YEARS
Murderers of Nathan Shapiro
PlearJ Guilty to
Charge.
Willie Collins, 17; Governor Hall,
IS, and Luther Hall, 14, negroes,
yesterday pleaded guilty to the
charge of murdering Nathan Shapiro
and were sentenced by District
Judge Redick to 10 years each in the
state penitentiary. The charge was
murder in the second degree.
They are the youngest boys ever
sentenced by the Douglas county
district court on the charge of mur
der. Special provision will be made
at the state penitentiary for the two
boys who are under 16 years old.
The three boys on the night o;
August 27, returning from a movinp
picture show, entered the grocery
store of Nathan Shapiro, Twenty
sixth and Hamilton streets, and,
after an altercation, shot him to
death.
When they were arrested they
all denied their guilt. Later they
confessed but the Hall boys laid
the actual shooting to Collins.
Collins said he and the Hall boys
followed a man near Twenty-eighth
and Hamilton streets with the in
tention of "sticking him up," but
that, just as they were ready to do
this he turned into his home. Then
they passed the Shapiro store where
Mr. Shapiro was still at work. One
of the Hall boys suggested to "get
that fellow," Collins said in his
statement following his arrest.
The three boys entered the store.
Two of them had revolvers. When
they tried to hold up Mr. Shapiro
he resisted. A struggle ensued
which continued out into the ttreei
where he was shot to death.
The youths had little to sav t
Judge Redick. Governor Hall
merely remarked that "two of n
done the shooting."

A Box Spring nj Mattress
We emphasize the "AND" because a box spring is ridiculous with
out a mattress and because there is no such thing as a "Box Spring
Mattress," and we would not have any of our friends buy a Box
Spring under the impression that they could get along WITHOUT
a mattress.
The Correct Combination is, however, the most delightful, com
fortable cushion for the body you have ever slept upon, and our
NO. 3 SET
(nade in our own factory)
is as fine an example of quality, high
rade workmanship and "knowing how"
you would wish to see.
