TYCE FACES OWN REVOLVER Entrance to Residence Gained in Mysterious Manner, and Sev. eral Articles of Value Are Stolen PASADENA, Jan. IS.—Confronted by the mtnii.. is of the household returned unexpectedly at about 4 o'clock, a day light burglar jumped from the second story.window of the home of Dr. R. a. 284 South Madison avenue, and In spi'e of injuries sustained, stood on* Dr Tyco with the doctor's own re volver" and finally made his escape after a dash aero»« several back yarns and through the McKinley school grounds. Dr. Tyce has a handsome establish ment on South Madison avenue. This afternoon he and Mrs. Parish, mother of Maxneld Parish, the artist and il lustrator, and an attendant, for Mrs. Parish is not well, went out for an automobile ride. Mrs. Parish became cool and the party returned for wraps. Mrs. Parish found her room had been ransacked, some valuaLles being miss- Ing. She stepped on the porch and called the doctor, who was still in the machine and just then a short, thick set man opened one of the upper win dows of the house, jumped about twen ty feet to the ground and started to run around to the rear of the house. Dr. Tyce was instantly in full pur suit, and as the man had evidently hurt himself by his jump, the medical man was fast overtaking him when the burglar, brought to bay. turned and drew Dr. Tyce's own revolver which he had found in the house. "Coma an other step," shouted the man. "and I'll blow your brains out." Dr. Tyce jumped into the shelter of the garage and the burglar, seeing he ■was not followed, scaled a fence and ran eastward through back yards. He reached the street, dashed across the McKinley school yard and down an alley. He was evidently hurt, for he stopped at a barn and asked the owner if he could go in and rest. -He was ordered away by the proprietor of the barn who, of course, knew nothing of the burglary. Then the burglar proceeded to the southeast and all trace o* him wns lost. One of the remarkable things nhout the case is that there is no trace ef the way in which the man entered the house. All the windows save the one from which the rrmn Jumped were found locked and he could not have climbed in by the window ttmugh which he made his exit. The doors were also locked and the front door has a Yale lock, so that a skeleton kay would not have opened it. Even in his flight the burglar did not drop the few things of value he had hnil time to find. He took with him five or six dollars in money, a KOld coin watchcharm and several other things. While ransacking the house the man had discovered n knife used for erasing purposes, the keen blade of which had evidently cut him badly, for traces of blood were found nil over the house and the knife point was smeared with blood. The robbery of the house of Dr. Tyce was followed by an equally daring at tempt on the home of D. G. Forbush. 66:! Arbor street, at 5:30 o'clock this afternoon. Entrance was gained hy breaking the glass out of the front door and the robber, who got clean arniy, took with him two antique stick ptns, three smaller pins, a revolver and about $3 in money.

UNCERTAINTY • Every development of the system of insurance means some more uncer tainty abolished. Is all uncertainty doomed, then? Quite possibly It is. This was created a world of uncer tainty, in the view that character > Wl ettts where people are kept guessing. But we've long outgrown the crude no tion that the making of character Is o. any considerable Importance as com pared with eating and getting rlin quick. The possibilities of Insurance are not as yet so much as suspected, let alone explored. Incredible as it may seem, the day is probably coming when even a woman of uncertain age will have but to take out the right policy in or der to become, by the elimination o£ all uncertainty, younger than ever.— Christmas Puck. i THE WEATHER LOS ANGELES.
