WOMAN CONFESSES HOLDUP WAS FAKE Mrs. Robertson Is Now Suspected of Having Staged Another Fraud Last Year. I'reehold, N. J., Feb, 24.—After the alleged confession of Mrs, Sarah L. M. Robertson that she ''staged” the hold- up at her Deal Beach home last Sat- urday night, the police today were seeking to learn if she is the same woman who a year ago procured $10,- 000 from an insurance concern for the reputed theft of gems in Colum- bus, Ohio. The police last night recovered Mrs. Robertson's jewels which were supposed to have been taken by the “robber."” She gave the authorities a note to the person in whose custody the gems were, and they were turned further ado. Two of the pieces recovered the police say, correspond with descriptions of gems alleged to have been stolen from Mrs. Robertson in Columbus. The police said she included in her confession a statement that she was driven to desperation by embarrass ments in her real estate business and that she had planned in addition to the “fake” robbery of herself, two real rohberies of New York friends. The recovered jewels are said to be worth $30,000, They were insured for $70,000. APPROVES MATING OF Capetown, Soutb Africa, and widow of Captain De Grey Warter.

WHITE AND COLORED Baltimore Suffragist Tells Club Love Alone Should Guide Link- ing of Sexes. Raltimore, Ieb. 24 -"Intermar- riage between white women and Jap- anese, Negroes, Hindus, or members of any other race is justifiable, pro- vided the union is founded on love,” said Mrs. Donald R. Hooker, leading suffragist in Maryland, at the meet- ing of the Just Government league. Mrs. Hookér's statement followed an address by Theodore Gould on the Japanese question and was made in response to a question of .one of the members of the club. “Too often,”” said Mrs. Hooker, “marriages are founded on considera- tions which have little to do with love. When mutual affection i¢ taken as a basis for marriage, un- natural selection of mates disappears and the situation is as nature in- tended it to be. The present inter- mingling of races exists without being sanctioned by law. “There are Negro half breeds and Japanese_half breeds and half breeds of other races. The great hordes of these tragic souls would dwindle con- siderably, in my opinion, if women would only mate merely for love, for 1 do not believe that there would be an intermingling of a superior race and an inferior race, if that were the case."” ARMY TRAINING ITS SOLDIERS TO COOK Old Time Ritchen King to Be Re- placed By White Aproned Chefs Who Can Really Serve. Coblenz, Feb. 24.—The old time United States army cook who special- jzed on baked beans and corned “willy’ and, in war times in France, became famous in soldier circles for his meal time call of ‘‘come and get it,” is soon to be an individual of memory only. Modern progress has pushed the old-fashioned army cook aside, and in his place will soon ap- pear a white-aproned chap, with cap to mateh, skilled in all the arts of the up-to-date kitchen. Domestic science is to be made a feature, according to recently formed plans of the American Forces in Ger- many, as part of the educational and vocational training system inaugurated some time ago. > A school for cooks and bakers has been established in Coblenz. Even all the mess officers and enlisted men performing the duties of mess ser- geants have been ordered to take a course in training. This has been ar- ranged with a view of standarizing and improving the soldiers’ messes over which class graduated cooks will reign supreme. CONDITION IMPROVED The condition of Mrs. James Mad- den of 56 Winthrop street, who has been severely ill for the past three weeks, is reported to show improve- ment.
