JOHN S. EDWARDS
Burglar, inventor and pleasing gen
tleman, when not forcing safes, faces
a, long term in the Eastern Peni
tentiary. In the rough and ready language u'ed
by the police, police court attorney, mls
ilon workers and those who -issoclate
with the men and nomen who arc rather
imdcdiable citizens, John S. Edwards,
who was held without ball hv Magistrate
Tracy at the Eleventh and Winter streets
police station today, has had another fall.
'The underworld considers a fall aa
something that business men would stjle
a. failure.
Edwards today admitted that Edwards
was onh an assumed name, but that he
had used It for the better part of his
life.
His real name, he stated, was J F. .
Szatek and he said that for the mot of
tho time since his ideas from the East
ern l'enltcntlary he lived at 1913 Noith
Twelfth street.
At the close of the hearing Lieutenant
Fmllcy read a letter from fieorge D Por
ter. Director of Public Safetv, commend-
--trR, Winnie and Kent, policemen, for i
causing the arrest of Edwards.
Edwards was caught attempting to
break Into a snloon.
Edward" Is an inventor. He ha" made
more monec with thp "Jlmmj ' and the
brace and bit, but then, although John
lived off the earnings of his burglaries
and -afe robbing jobs, neer boasted of
them but preferred to talk about his in-
entims. . j
Edwards was released several months
ago from the Eastern Penitentiary, after j
serving j. sentence for burglary
He was necr a model prisoner, but not-
withstanding he won the friendship of i
Tloberr J McKejUj, warden of the prison
In W. while serving a term In the I
Eastern Penitentiary foi robbery, Ed
wards, with Charles Berger, staled the
walls In the Jump from a :0-foot gate-
wav Edw.uds received a hioken leg
Guards who bad seen the escape came
upon him while they wem searching the I
"flower beds outside the prUon wall by I
jn-clng tne foliage back with the barrels
of shotguns.
-Edwards smiled when a guard pushed
a gun against hl cheat and said, "I m
"it, "bul von haven't got my pardner."
-Berger was captured in Chester when,
famished, he went to the home of a rela
tlle to beg food
Since hts last release from prison Ed
l wards Is said to havo had a 1ob affair
and also to have cherished -t hatred to
saloonkeepers.
As far as the police know he has robbed
none but saloonkeepers. He says he was
educated in saloons and he is turning
his education to use against the keepers
pf.bar roon.
SViypurjr ttoman wn0 Hvd In the 2100
block on North Tenth street Is also said
to. , have Interested Edwards. Ho confi
dentially told friends that he eppi ted to
murry th oung woman She has left the
hoihp of her mother since Edwards' ar
rest, and the mother sajs that there was
but little between Edwards and her
daughter
Edwatds left prison last winter and
went to the voung woman's home to
board. He spent nearlv every night out,
but alwajs explained his absence In some
plausible manner. Tho police sav that
every night he was. away from his .room
hi' was using his "jimmy" and cold chisel
forcing open windows, cash drawers and
rmall safes.
All the time Edwards was planning 'or
the marriage with his landlady s daugh
ter ' it Is also .said
He dM not tell the girl that he was a
Mall bird." To her he was a mechanic
and a mighty good one. for he alvvavs
had money, spent with a smile, and
le.ievv wheie to get more money when a
nUht was expensive.
Then came the fall The Detective flu.
reau. when C4 wards was released, de
tailed a man to keep an eve on him The
man was able to tell how much Edwards'
sqpper bill was what he spent for other
things, and all the othr minor details
of life but could not tell how Edwards
kqpt his pocketbook filled ami that was
the mam thing for "Hob" Cameron, chief
f the Bureau
JMnard shook off hU detective shadow
1 one night last week drew his jimmv and
started to work on the front door of Wil
kinson's saloon Ninth and Filbert streets.
Kdwarels was keeping hts eyes open for
smMotb.' an4 plausible Central station de.
tMOrej. One. whom ha called "harnefs
bull." swinging a club, slipped up behind
John and placed against his head the bar
rel. of a revolver.
"Well. I guess ou got m," ald Ed-
w irds. as ne nanaeu over ms "jimmj."
"ThanUs for the bouquet." replied the
cop. who Is Kent of the Eleventh and
Winter 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
every 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
It Edwards could not work the knob the
police are of the opinion that no one
e'e coiild.
Edwards made a new kind of a cane
seat fJr chairs and hitched up a. motor
which he said was as near perpetual
motion as any engine would come The
mot r was run by spools When one
pool, cast into, water, would sink, a
second spool uld bob to the surface

A hitch In the plan to take Adolph

morning to see his father at the hos
pital, and then to go to the lawyer's
oftlce to arrange for taking him to Norris
