THE OPBRATIONS AND EXTENSIVE. Two boy burglars who have been reap- ing rich haryests in the Western Addi- tion were captured Saturday night while | attempting to break into the home of Mrs. J. Parker at 1050 Schrader street. Since their capture Detective Regan hds lo- cated over $00 worth of loot which they had taken. Their names are Albert Quill, { aged 14, and Frank Worthsmith, aged 13. As vet the police have not been able to ascertain the exact numbgr of houses that were broken into by the' vouthful criminals, but it s believed that they have robbed more than seventeen houses. The gross amount of the plunder they gathered up during the time they have been working is estimated at nearly $1000. The two boys are now at the Juvenile Detention Home.,Quill has been there be- fore, being out on probation at. the time of his arrest. He had stolen §7-and buried it, and when he confessed to the theft he was released. s The boys operatéd usually in broad day- light. They would go to a“house in the afternoon and ask for “Mrs. Ellis” if any one answered the bell. swered they would pry open a window and ransack the house with the cunning of experienced criminals. The young criminals took nothing but valuable loot, money, jewelry and plate. So shrewdly was their work' accomplished that the police belleved that several sharp Eastern crooks were operating In the city. Nobody suspected the two demure little boys who persevered in seeking | “Mrs. Ellis.” They came to grief when they at- tempted to break into. the Parker home. A woman who happened to be passing saw the young crooks at work. She told Policemen Hicks and Willlams of the Park station. The young criminals were taken just as they had pried open the window witn a chisel. The pair were seen Friday trying to break into the residence of Smith Anderson at 114 Tenth avenue, Richmond District. They made their way into the basement, but were frightened 'away be- fore they could get any farther. Detective Regan Policeman Hicks are still un t which the boys have accumulal _detectives learned that the young e sold two rings valued at $300 to ‘named John Don- ovan for $10. m have been re- covered and/ the’ ‘are waiting for fuch of the prop- them to be identified. erty located by ® and Hicks has been identified by Pol en’ Hammil and Dow as property. stolen. When first captured the boys became frightened and confessed to a number of burglaries, telling where the property was hidden. -After they were removed to the Detention Home, however, they be- came, sullen and refused to answer fur- ther questions. ‘Worthsmith volunteered the information that “Quill took'a shot at a Jap once while we were robbing a place, The Jap butted in and we had to scare him away somehow.” A Young Quill has been living' at 752 Har- rison street and Worthsmith at 786A Har- rison street. Young Quill has been in the juvenile court several times. Numerous petty thefts were reported to the police yesterday. E. F. Smiddy's butcher shop, at 855 Bryant street, was entered about 6 o'clock yesterday morn- ing by tearing an iron screen from the door. Mrs. Annie Dowling, who lives next door, saw five men standing on the sidewalk in front of the shop with the cash register, which was forced open. Tt contained only two telephone checks, which were stolen. * “ Mrs. John F. Leahy, 117 ty-seventh street, reported that her residence had been entered on Saturday night during her absence. A trunk belonging to a young lady was forced open, but as she is absent from the city Mrs. Leahy did not know what had been stolen.

He sus- pects a man who was seen loitering around the cloakroom. Edward Charles reported that his room | at 614 Kearny street had been entered on | Saturday night and a suit case contain- ing personal effects stolen. | Edward Donohoe reported that his room |at 378 Natoma street had been entered | on Saturday night and a violin and case, which were under the bed, were stolen. \ PR 0 S, BURGLAR CAUGHT AT WORK. h Policeman Teutenberg Ca) tures Crook at, Work: in Cigar, Store.

He gave the name of James Ryan when of burglary. His record will be looked into.

Four cases occurred early yester- | day morning. Chris Johnson, who gave his address as 2901 Pacific avenue, went to a room at 904 Kearny street with Jose- | phine Maloney, a notorfous character, and complained to Policeman Nelson that while he was talking to her she stole his | gold watch. Nelson arrested her and | booked her at the City Prison on charges | of grand larceny and vagrancy. L. C. McCloud, who lives at the Royal | House, 126 Ellis street, went to the Hay- markety concert hall early yesterday morning with May Brown, and later told Policeman Max Fenner that she had sto- Ien his gold wach, valued at $150. Fen- | ner arrested the woman and booked her | at the City Prison on charges of grand | larceny and vagrancy. The watch was | found in her possession. 1 John Roberts, 110 Drumm street, reported to the police that he met a woman en | Dupont street and she took him to a house on California street in the . 700 | block. When he awoke yesterday morn- ing he was sitting’ on the steps of a | strange house and he missed $63 in cur- rency. H. Brockelmann, 512 Mason street, met a colored woman shortly after midnight on Taylor street, near Ellis. She asked him to step into a doorway, as she wanted to speak to him, and while there she stole his pocketbook containing $13 and ran away. He gave an alarm and Special Officer Alvarado started in pursuit of the ‘woman, but she escaped. A colored boy who was following her was arrested by Alvarado and locked up in the City Prison. He gave the name of Charles Brown. WONAN SPEAES OF SCRPTURES Mrs. E. L. Peake, Evangelist, | Preaches Strong Sermon ! to a Large Congregation —_— Mrs. Edith Livingstone Peake, the ev: gelist, delivered a powerful sermon la night at the United Presbyterian Churcn, Golden"Gate avenue and Polk street. The Rev. Dr. Bell, the pastor, presided and there was an attendance of several hun- dred worshipers. Mrs. Peake has been absent from San Francisco for ten years and old and new friends gave her a hearty greeting at the cloge of the service. For- merly Mrs. Peake was in the dramatic profession, having been a member of the stock companies here which supported Fechter, George Rignold and other fa- mous stars of the theatrical firmament. During her absence she has been conduct- ing religious services with much success north of Mason and Dixon's line, her forceful and convincing manner winning many to the gospel. 8he showed last night that she is a theologian of a high order and can lucidly interpret the words of the scripture. In her appeal that the master’'s call shall be answered she id that when men recognize his authority then will they make a long stride in the direction of sal- vation. The Bible, she said, teems with calls from God. God, she said, is calling upon fathers and calling upon mothers, and young men and young girls, and she eskea who among them will heed and obey. Unbelief, she maintained, is the crying sin of the worldsto-day, and hell is teem- ing with its victims. The conditions of the day could be discerned on the streets, where the ears are shocked with blas- crying out for their wandering sons and daughters? Counterfeit, sald Mrs. Peake, is every- where. There are sham Christians, sham disciples and tinsel professors, and against all these God lifts his voice. Mrs. Peake declared that the professing Christlan who is not saved from the power of sin may well examine himself to see if he indeed is of the faith or only a counterfeit. Mrs. Peake will speak at the United | Preshyterian Church every evening this week, except Saturday, at'$ o'clock. G ——————————— UNIONS WILL PROCEED TO HOLD THEIR ELECTIONS Quiet Prevails on All Sides and the Holiday Season Will Be Peace- ful One. . — With no strikes in view or other trouble to cause disturbance the vari- ous labor organizations will begin th month to el{:& officers and delegates for the ensuing six months. One of the disagreeable issues which caused friction about the city front for a number of,years between the Sail- ors' Union and the Longshoremen’'s Union has at last been settled by the ruling of the American Federation at its last session. This is to the effect that all men laboring on land must be- long to the Shoremien’s Union, ‘while all men who go to sea mu belong to e Sallors’ Union. - This viiling will | eliminate the name of the “Internation- al Association of Longshoremen, Ma- rine and Transport Workers' Associa- tion” by cutting off the longer portion of the title and leaving it simply “Longshoremen’s Union. The beer question from the North- west that had disturbed the friendly relations hetween the employers and their employes has been adjusted and every man, union or scab, can now drink all sorts and kinds of beer with- out fear of fine or expostulation for patronizing “scab beer.” At a recent meeting of the Furniture Handlers' Union the following officers were elected for the ensuing six president, A. S. Alexander: recording secretary, Charles Klotz; financial sec- retary and treasurer, J. A. Williams: conductor, W. E. Clark; warden, Neil Christensen; custodian, F. A, Burgess, trustee, A. ‘Tyler.
