Burglars Get $500
Worth of Jewelry
As Family Sleeps
The home of Paul Springer, 1320
North Forty-first street, was en
tered Tuesday night by burglars who
stole $500 worth of jewelry without
awakening any , member of the
family.
Entrance was gained by removing
a pane of glass of a basement .win
dow, and then cutting out a panel
of a door leading from the basement
to the upstairs. The panel was
neatly removed. t
None of the Springers knew of
the robbery until they arose yester
day morning. The loot included a
diamond pin and several watches.

NEW DEED BOOKS
FOR REGISTRAR'S
OFFICE COMING
110 Blank Volumes Cost $5,
500 Biggest Work Is
Writing Up New
Records.
Harry Pearce, county register of
deeds,, yesterday ordered 110 large
index books to take the place of
those consumed or irreparably
damaged in the court house fire
Sunday' night.
,The books cost $50 each, or $5,500
for the 110. The biggest expense,
however, will be the labor of tran
scribing the records from the dam
aged books and getting from other
sources the records which were
contained in those entirely de
stroyed. Mr. Pearce will pet delivery of
the first 10 books October 9, and
then a force of men, probably work
ing day and night in two shifts, will
begin the actual labor of writing up
the books.
"We are doing business now,"
said Mr. Pearce. "There are other
sources from which the information
regarding abstracts on many pieces
of property can be secured, though
not as conveniently as from our
records. The abstractors have much
of this information. The real es
tate firms that laid out additions to
the city have abstracts of property
in those additions. But until the
indexes have been replaced our work
will be crippled seriously." ,
The temporary office of the reg
ister of deeds is in the juvenile
court room.

What Happened When Madge
'Phoned Alice Holcombe.
a Katie gave one of her infectious
thuckles.
"Vot you tink happen to dot cake
eef Katie no look at heem before
dis?" she asked, her face and eyes
shining with the consciousness of
duty performed. "I go me down,
vatch that cake as soon as you coom
talk to dot man. Dot cake, she all
right, she coming fine, you not
worry one beet. I take heem out as
soon as she nice brown."
"All right, Katie," I said grate
fully, for I feared that I might have
no more time to bestow upon Jun
ior's birthday cake. ' I'll leave the
cake in your hands."
"I feex, all right," Katie carolled
cheerfully, and as I walked to the
telephone I envied her volatile
spirits.
Alice Holcombe The thought of
her had come to me as soon as I
had seen the necessity of checking
up the attorneys qf Kenneth Stock
bridge. She was the only, person in
all Bayview of whom I dared ask a
?uestion concerning the principal,
would have gone directly to Mr.
Kent s office in New York, tut I had
read in the newspaper that he had
taken a trip out of the city, would
not be back for another week and
I felt that I never could wait that
long to find out if a Mr. George
Bridgeham was a member of his
staff, and if so whether he was the
objectionable person who had call
ed on me.
There is no telephone in Alice
Holcombe's home, but one can
reach her through an accommodat
ing neighbor. The cheery, some
what piping voice of this woman
came to me in answer to my call.
An Anxious Wait.
"Miss Holcombe? Ally Hol
combe? Sure, I'll call her over. But
come to think of it, I don t think
she's home this morning, Ally aint.
Leastways I saw her going out of
the house last night with a suitcase,
but mebbe she was just takin' some
dresses to the cleaners. She does
that often, though I tell her it's
awful extravagant, that she could
just as well do 'em at home. But
I II go over anyway and come back
and tell you."
thank you so much, I respond
ed fervently, realizing with greater
force than ever what Alice Hol
combe had meant when she said
that she dared not stay at my house
the night after Milly Stockbridge's
death because of the gossip of the
neighbors. Evidently in the village
of Bayview there was no pos
sibility of the left hand concealing
anything from the right.
X held the phone to my ear hoping
against hope that the woman was
mistaken, and that I would hear
Alice's voice presently. But it was
the woman s falsetto which greeted
me a few minutes later. '
Message For Alice Holcombe.
"I'm awfullv sorrv." the oioed.
"but Ally's gone down to Patchogue
to her cousin's on her father's side;
her father's brother's oldest girl is
married and lives down there. She
has two children that AJly's just
crazy over; you know there's
nobody spoils children the way an
old maid aunt does; leastways, that's
what I tell my husband his sister
lives with us; there s no hvm with
the kids when she's around "
"Can you tell me. when Miss Hol
combe will be back?" I had the
question ready upon a hair trigger,
shot it into the phone at the first
pause for breath upon the part of
the woman at the other end of the
wire.
"Why! Her mother said she
thought she would come in on that
train tomorrow afternoon, gets in
about S o'clock. There's later trains
but Ally's awful particular about
stayin up too late when she's got
school on hand the next day. She's
fine girl that way, but she's an awful
fine girl. I always say to my hus
band shut that door, and if you
don't stop teasing that cat I'll skin
you alive."
The terrifying threat startled me
for a moment, so explosive was it
I almost looked around for the neg
lected door and the cat I was sup
posed to be teasing, then seized the
opportunity to cut short the
woman's voluble apology for "them
dratted kids of mine" which she was
beginning.

Hastening Work on
Getting Court House
In Condition Again
Two hundred men are at work
clearing up the debris in the court
house,' putting in temporary win
dows, repairing the steam heating
system and getting the building in
condition to be heated when the
weather becomes cold.
The window frames in many
places being entirely burned away,
temporary windows are being
placed about two feet inside the in
ner wall so as not to interfere with
putting in the permanent . frames
and windows when they can be ob
tained. The county commissioner, in the
emergency, have drawn money from
the miscellaneous fund to pay for
this work, pending action by the
legislature to provide funds to do
the actual work of rebuilding.
A large body of soldiers from
Camp Grant is now quartered in the
building. They slept in the cor
ridors and court rooms Tuesday
night.
Persons are admitted to the build
ing only by pass and then only at
the east door. i

"Oh, sure," with cordial hearti

oblige Ally or any friend of hers.
"Thank you. Will you please ask
her to call Mrs. Graham of Marvin
as soon as she gets home? Tell her
that it is very important. -She
knows the telephone number."
"Oh, yes, Mis' Graham! I'll
watch for her the minute she comes
in, and tell her right away. This is
the school ma'am, Mis' Graham,
ain't it? I've heard tell a lot about
you."
"Yes, I am one of the Bayview
teachers," I returned demurely.
"Thank you again for your kindness.
Good-by," and I had escaped from
the telephone, adding to my other
worries the vague speculation as to
the nature of things Alice Hol
combe's garrulous neighbor had
"heard tell" about me.
