JOHN S. EDWARDS
Burglar, inventor and pleasing gen
tleman, when not forcing safes, faces
long term in the Eastern Peni
tentiary. In the rough and ready language used
bj the police, police court attorneys, mis
sion workers and those who associate
wlih the men and women who are rather
undc'lrablo citizen. John S. Edwards,
who was held without ball by Magistrate
Tracy at the-CIeventh and Winter streets
police station Moday. lias had another fall.
The.- underworld considers a fail as
omuthlns that' business men would stjle
a falkne.
Kdwnids today admitted that Edwards
was onl an assumed name, but that he
had used it for the better part of his
life.
,1110 io.il name, he stated, was J. F. V.
$aitck ami he said that for the most of
the time binco his release from the East
ern Penitentiary he lived at 1913 North
Twelfth street.
At the close of the hearing Lieutenant
Bmllry icnil a letter from George D. Por
tpr, Director of Public Safety, commend
ing Winnie and Kent, policemen, for
causing the arrest of Edwards.
'' Edward was caught attempting to

Edwards Is an inventor. He has made
moio money with the "Jimmv" and the
brnco and bit, but then, nlthough John
lived off the earnings of his burglaries
and Fafe robbing Jobs, never boasted of
them lMit' preferred to talk about his in
dentions. Edwards was released several months
go from the Eastern Penitentiary, after
nerving a sentence for burglary.
Ho vv aa never a model prisoner, but not
withstanding lie won the friendship of
' Ttobert J. McKents, warden of the prison.
Jn 190S, wjille serving a term In the
. Eastern Penitentiary for robbery. Ed
1 wards, with .Charles Bergor, scaled th
walls. In the,Jump from a 30-foot gate
way. Edward received a broken leg
Guards who had seen the escape came
upon him while they were searching, the
flower beds outside thp prison wall by
forcing the foliage back with the barrels
of shotguns.
Edwards smiled when a guard pushed
a gun against his chest and said, "I'm
It, but yon haven't got my pardner."
' Bergcr was captured in Chester when,
famished, he went to the home of a rela
tive to beg food
Since his laBt release from prison Ed
' wards is said to have had a love affair
" and also to have chenehod a hatred to
saloonkeepers
As far as the police know he has robbed
none but saloonkeepers Hp says he was
. educated in saloons and he Is turning
his education to use against the keepers
et bar room
A young woman who lived in the 240
blook on North Tenth street is also said
to have Interested Edwards. He contl
dentlally told friends that he expected to
mrrry the young woman. She has left the,
homo of her mother since Edwards' ar
rest, and the mother savs that there was
but little between Edwards and her
daughter.
Edwards left prison last winter and
went to the young woman s home to
board. He spent nearly every night out,
but always explained his absence in some
plausible manner. The police sov that
every night he was away from hi room
he was using his "Jimmv" and cold chisel
forcing open windows, cash drawers and
email safes
Ml the time Edvaids was planning for
the marriage with his landlady's daujh
tci, it Is also said
He did not tell the girl that he was a
Mall bird." To her he was a mechanic
and a mighty good one, for he alwavx
had money, spent with a smile, and
k.iew where to get moie money when a
plght was expensive.
Then came the fall The Detective Bu
reau, when Edwards was released, de
tailed a man to keep an eye on him. The
man was able to tell how much Edwards'
supper bill was, what he spent for other
things, ami all the other minor details
nf life, but could not tell how Edwards
kept his pocketbook tilled and that was
the main thing for "Bob ' Cameron, thief
' the Bureau.
Edwards shook off his detective shadow
cue night last week, drew his Jimmy and
started to work on the front door of Wll
kinsnn's saloon. Ninth and Filbert streets
Edwards was keeping his eyes open for
smooth and plausible Central station de.
tectives. One. whom he called "harness
hull." swinging a club, slipped up behind
John and placed against his head the bar
rel of a revolver
"Well. I guess ou got me," said Ed
wirds as he handed over his "Jimmy"
"Thanks foi the bouquet." replied the
cup, who is Kent, of the Eleventh and
Win!""- street police station
Edwards while in the Eastern Peniten
tiary took an Interest In the flower gar
dens and the machine shop He was busy
ever" minute of his waking hours He
invented, a doorknob which he said was
burglar proof, because when It was
fastened and set he could not turn It
If K-lwards could not work the knob the
police are of the opinion that no one
else could
E.dwards made a new kind of a. cane
eat for chairs and hitched up a motor
whloh he fc-alJ was as near perpetual
motion a"s any engine would come The.
motor was run by spools When one
spool, cast Into water, would sink, a
second kpool would bob to the surface
and sink the first .a.

The observance of the Jewish Now Year
as it holv season Is ommandid in two
passages of tho Five Books of Mosis In
neither passage is thero anv specific com
mand as to how the day is to be atserved
beyond the Injunctions to blow the trum
pet, to hold a holy convocation and to
engage In no servile occupation The dnv
Is the first of tho seventh month or I'm
day of the new moon of that month
The new moon was observed as holv
season by the Jews of old: the seventh
month was a paitlcularly holy month, os
the seventh dav was the holy dav of the
week The new inoun of the seventh
month was thereforo invested with i
significance of far holier import than the
other new moon days of the sear. The
injunction to blow the trumpet nn this
day w.tk to call tho people to iemem
binncn before the Lord. This ceremony
of blowing the "shofar" became the cen
tral figure of the elaborate religious ser
vice conducted on the day.
It ib the prevailing idea that on this
day God weighs men's actions In the
scales of Justice- New- Year3 Day In
the passing of the centuries has thus
come to embody the great religious Ideas
of divine Justice and human responsibility.
