Eagerness to Secure
Wages Due Him Leads to
Arrest of Housebreaker
i Eagerness to recover his lost work
i men's badge In order to secure $35 in
wages due him and which led him to
return to the vicinity of the home of
Hiram Shope, farmer on the Young
farms, near Mlddletown. which he en
tered several nights previous, re
sulted In the arrest early yesterday
morning of William Roosevelt, Jr.,
alias Theodora Johnson, by Officer A.
H. Baum, of the Mlddletown Ordnance
Depot.
Roosevelt early Sunday morning:
entered the Shope home and took $65
In money and a Hamilton watch from
Mr. Shope'a clothing. When the
family aroused he jumped from, the
window and escaped.
The Mtddletown Ordnance Depart
ment was notlfled, and Officer A. H.
Baum, a vertlable Sherlock Holmes
on the force y was detailed on the
case. * '
"Now if any person would Jump
from that window," he deduceed,
looking over the country, "he would
In all probability loose something
from his pockets.." Then he started
to look about. Finally, hidden under
some bushes near the house, a work
man's badge, was located. Inscrip
tions on the badge told that it had
been Issued by Bates and Rogers,
contractors at the Marsh Run Depot.
It bore the number 4154 and Inquiries
elicited there brought out the infor
mation that number 4154 had )35 in
money due him for duties performed.
"Surely number 4154 will want to
secure hts |3u' and he cannot secure
it without his badge," his thoughts
toold OfTiffcar Baum. He decided then
to place the territory under close
scrutiny for sometime. And so, on
Tuesday night after holding a long
and lonely vigil, his patience was re
warded and William Roosevelt, Jr.,
-was arrested.
Roosevelt acknowledged that he
had entered the house and when told
that $65 had been taken, he said, "I
was not the only one either, my
partner double-crossed me. He gave
me only $5 which he "said was one
half the amount that was taken."
Bo he told that "Kid" Flowers had
been his accomplice and had caught
the money and watch when thrown
out of the window, Flowers was ar
rested yesterday. When given a
hearing before Alderman Hilton yes
tirday. they were held for the Sep
tember term of court under fI.OOO
ball.
