LITERARY BURfiLAK ESCAPES
WITH LOOT AFTER FEAST
Enjoys Dinner and Book Before Flee
ing With Silverware and Gems
A burglar of literary taste Is visiting
the city. He Is also somewhat of an epi
cure. He believes that a good dinner is
essential to good work. Ho called at the
home of Mrs. Mary 13. La Dow, CI1C North
12th street, last night while she was at
church and first of all visited the commis
sary department.
After selecting some nice turkey, cran
berry sauce, mince pie, nuts nnd other
appetizing things, he put the coffee on to
bolt and then wandered Into the library.
There the visitor casually examined the
books, and, selecting one of Thackeray's
dropped Into an easy chair. Itealizlng
that he didn't have time to finish the
whole book, he then selected" the best
allverwaro nnd piled It on the floor. A
trip thrpugh the rooms upstairs yield
ed several rings and stickpins These"
were assembled with tho silverware. By
this time the visitor noticed that the cof
fee wns done nnd wandered to the kitchen
He had carved but one slice of tho tur
key when Mrs. LaDow returned with her
son Stewart. They noticed that the lights
In the library vvero turned on full ; nlso
that many books and other things were
scattered about tho floor. A mounted
policeman was summoned by telephone,
and he, with Stewart LaDow, went up
stairs. The burglar heard them and left
by way of the kitchen door without leav
ing his card.
Investigation showed Hint tho visitor
had taken Jewelry and silverware valued
at several hundred dollars.
Three Crones Indictments
CHICAGO, March 22 Three Indict
ments, charging assault with Intent to kill
and murder, have been returned In tho
Criminal Court by the Grand Jury against
Jean Crone3, accused of attempting to
poison guests at the banquet given Arch
bishop Mundeleli. Capiases for his arrest
were Issued and his bonds fixed at $75,000,
Crones still Is at large.
"A Joyless Christian Is like a piano out
of tuno or a dislocated limb," declared
Evangelist William P. Nicholson while
preaching this nfternoon In tho Nicholson
Hemmlnger tabernaclo In Darby. And nt
the same tlmo he nssnlled "plcasuro-lov-Ing"
Philadelphia for trying to find Joy
"without following tho teachings of God
and fie Bible."
Thoro was a good attendance, and the
preacher was frequently npplaudcd when
ho hammered homo somo of his strong
punches against sin.
In opening his sermon, Mr. Nicholson
said that "tho Bible says 'bo Joyful In the
Lord, not happy In the Lord. We cannot
nlwnys ho happy, but wo may always bo
Joyful," ho continued. "Happiness de
pends on what happens Joy Is Inde
pendent of cither disposition or circum
stances. "There Is a large place In God's word
given to Joy. But wo bind tho Bible In
black cloth, churches have dim light and
many hymns nro sad and are sung In
n minor key. What a slander on Chris
tianity! If God gives such a large place
to Joy, so should we. What a lot of
sadness there Is among Christians!
"There Is no onus for this sadness,"
said the evangelist But. Instead, there
is nil tho reason for Joy on the part of
Christians. Many lives havo written over
them 'Ichabad' The Glory Departed
They once had the joy of the Lord, but
they have backslidden.
"Somo of the sources of Joy aro God's
presence, Gods voice, Gods word, suffei
ing and service, answered prayer and love
to God Many sell their birthright of Joy ,
llko Esau for a mess of pottage; for the
temporary satisfaction of an appetite, or, i
llko David, catering to his lust; or, like i
tho children of the captivity in bondage i
liieso things nil result in the loss of Joy
"Poor pleasure-loving Philadelphia
thinks Its passing happiness Is real, last
ing Joy. Poor deluded people trying to
find Joy outside of God's plan. There Is
no Joy In selfish satisfaction, or self- In
dulgence, or slavery. And this great city
Is full of all three of these. My, oh, my'
God pity us!
"If this Joy is lost. It may be restored
to us again. He will give the oil of Joy
frr mourning, the garment of praise for
the spirit of heaviness. A Joyless Chris
tian is like a piano out of tune or a dis
located limb. He needs mending."
Many public school teachers attended
the services last night.
Tonight will be Rcbekah Lodges' night,
and many of the organizations are ex
pected to attend. They will be accom
panied by tho Women's Salvation Army
Band, of Philadelphia.

The Long - Sought - For
'Balanced' Tires
We have actually produced the long
sought-for 'balanced tires.
The instant success of our popular
priced 'Usco' Tread is a striking example
of the automobile owners' immediate
recognition of our 'balanced' tires.
There are three big, exclusive reasons whj the
.'balanced tire is the 100 percent. efficient tire,
1 Because the rubber tread is 'balanced' that 1, the
tread has just tho exact balance' between rejlllency
and toughness, which produces the greatest po!"
efficiency in the whole tread.
2 Because the fabric carcass is 'balanced' that Is, ,Ui
carcass has complete 'balance' between flexlbUJtjr
which gives easy riding, and strength which fire
endurance.
S Because the whole tire i 'balanced' that is, th
rubber tread and fabric carcass are in such coropit
'balance' aa to give equal wear both tread and car
cass are equally strong.
t is this three-fold 'balance that sets the fire Unltsd
States Individualized Tires in a class apart.
. Slnco our 'balancad' tires began to be "felt on the rnr
ket" lat fall, the, sales of United States Tires hay i to;
creased ateadily month by month up to tho recent nif osM
increase of 354 per cent.
