Correction Commissioner Katherine B.

When I was at the re- formatory every time anything that ‘waan't just right was done great ef- forts were made to keep it from Mr. Moore. Bo sure was I there was a frame-up to get rid of Moore that I wrote a letter offering to come here and testify in hi# behalf, Why, *t heard some of the boys discussing the frame-up in the band room of the re- formatory before my term expired.” It came out during the testimony that Simons had testified against a former overseer named Bartels.

A gang of five cracksmen, after over: powering and tleing up the watchman and engineer, mate an unsuccessful effort to open and rob the safe of the Alhambra Theatre at One Hundred and Twenty-Sixth Street and Seventh Avenue, early to-day. The safe con. tained the receipts of Saturday's. 2: day's and yesterday's performanvus, amounting to $8,200. Ferdinand Behrens, sixty-four, of Wo. 471 Amsterdam Avenue, the night watehman, was on bis rounds on the @allery floor at & o'clock to-day when five men appeared before him and or- dered him to keep quiet. They had probably concealed themselves after last night’s performance and awaited a favorable opportunity to get the ‘watchman. © Three of the men guided Behrens to an aléove, where they seated him in a chair and bound him. Two of these men then disappeared, leaving a guard on watch. While two worked at the safe the awo inside men \’ent to the cellar and suddenly appeared before Adolph Horowits, sixty-three, of No. 210 East Thirty-ninth Street, the engineer. Persuaded by the sight of two re- volvera Horowits marched up to the gallery above, where he was seated In a obair beside Behrens and like- wise bound, Then the two robbers went down to the office to assist the two men who were working on the safe, leaving « vigilant guard over the watchman and engineer. The manager's office, where the safe ia located, is on the balcony floor on the Seventh Avenue side, and the safe can be seen from the street. The bur- glare worked with a drill on the eafe doors for more than half an hour. Then something alarmed them. Behrens and Horowitz heard a whistle sound downstairs, Their guard, warn- ing them that they would be shot if they attempted to give the alarm, hurried away. When all was atill In the theatre the two old mon tackled their bonds and succeeded in freeing themselves. Behrens ran to the street and noti- fied Patrolman Howard, while Horo- wits telephoned to Police Head- quarters and Detectives Enright and I'tl were sent to the theatre, In their hasty departure the crac! men left behind a drill and two bits and large, powerful “can opener, device designed to rip out the soft iron back or bottom of a safe as a cua {s opened: The Alhambra safe is all steel ang the can opener was useless. No one was allowed to touch thi safe or the burglar tools until the fingerprint experts’ arrived from Headquarters, The thieves undoubt- edly knew that the receipts for six performances each to a crowded house were in tho safe because the banks were closed Saturday afternoon and yesterday. Behrens and Horowitz have but hasy descriptions of the thieves, All five wore black overcoats and black derby hats. as .PLAN BIG BEAN CROP. Michigen Farmere Deuble Treble Thelr Acreage.

When @ blow is sent at you, and you throw the arm forward that way, it requires very little strength to divert it. You don't stop it, you see; you only divert and raise guard for boxin, it.” Good stuff, that was, and the girls caught the idea instantly. After half @ dozen essays they were guarding as Mike himself would have guarded. Then the teacher taught them the straight punch: ‘Elbows in! Hands open and palms up, as if they were going to catch a big gold coin. Now, shoot the hands Right, reft; right, lett. That's it. Swing your bodies from the hips! Reach out! Reach out!

It would be a bold man that dared face them cl with th eous exhibitions, all of which will re- main open until March 8, The first of these is concerned with the work of deceased American art- ists, nine of whom are given repre- sentation. Paintings by R. A. Blake- lock, George Fuller, Winslow Homer, William M. Hunt, George Innes, John La Far, Homer D. Martin, Theo- dore Robinson and A. H, Wyant have been hung. The two by John La Farge are es- | Bectally noteworthy. The first is called “Ascension,” and deals with this well-known Biblical theme. The Christ is robed in symbolic white and wears a golden nimbus. He rises heavenward amid the angelic throng. 'The, picture is exceedingly decorative. The other La Farge painting—both are in water colore—is a fan- tasy entiteed “Autumn Leaves.” It represents @ Junone, or a guardian spirit of the female sex. Following the Italian tradition, Mr. La Farge has painted her partly draped and with the wings of a moth. The fig- ure is in circular composition and rests daintily upon the surface of the water, which reflects the highly colored and falling autumn leaves as wejl as the lower portion of the figure. The second exhibition includes fit- teen canvases ,by Colin Camp! Cooper. They are of Indian subjects and include beautiful portrayals of the Taj Mahal, Agra, and Indian cere- monials in which elepbants, camels and gayly caparisoned horses find ef- tory Staten Islander Charged With! bell | paint on one side, was not damaged.

The window is intended for ultimate installation in Mr, Tift country home, Laurelton Hall, Oys Bay, Long Island. It is entitled “The Bathers.” The window will be ex- hibited at the Panama-Pacific Expo- sition as the first important example of an entirely new process in glass making.
