SHOT TO DEATH
Another Man's Body, Rid
died With Bullets, Found
on Street
New York, Doc. 17. Throe unsolved
murder mysteries one involving the
theft of $100,000 in jewelry and one
the slaying of a police lieutenant
furnished more ammunition to-day for
newspaper criticism of the police de
partment. Most spcctaeular of the new and un
solved crimes was the hold-up and
murder yesterday afternoon in the
heart of the Fifth avenue shopping
district of Kdwiu X. Andrews, whole
sale jeweler. Three bandits shot aud
clubbed him to death, gagged and
bound three men who entcrad the store
while they were collecting their loot
and sauntered leisurely out into the
milling crowds on the avenue..
About midnight Police Lieutenant
Floyd Horton was. mortally wounded
by taxicab bandits at 14(ith street and
Broadway when he leaped on the run
ning board of their car in an effort
to capture them. Before he died in a
hospital he gasped out that the occu
pants of the car, In addition to the
chauffeur wore a man and a woman.
The only other information he was
able to furnish was the license num
ber of the taxi which proved to have
been faked.
Almost at the same hour that Lieu
tenant Horton received his death
wound, the body of a well-dressed man
about 35 years of age, was found bullet-riddled
in 107th street. His as
sasin or assassins had sent Ave bul
lets into him and made their escape
without leaving a tangible clue. Even
the victim's name remained unknown.
Besides these cases, the police still
were grappling to-day with the dar
ing daylight hold-up on. .Wednesday of
four guests at the Astor hotel in the
"Hoaring Forties" on Broadway. One
of the three hold-up men was cap
tured by guests, bit the other two es
caped and the police so far have been
unable to trace them or even glean
information of value concerning them
from their captured comrade.

"You see," broke in Bess,
"we are $75.00 ahead of our ex
pectations. Aunt Lucia trave
$50.00 instead of the $25.00 we
asked for, and Uncle Will, the
good old dear, sent his check for
$100.00 instead of for $50.00.
And dad doesn't know, doesn't
expect, what we've been up to.
He looks for all the world as if
he were going to receive an
other ash tray," and the store
rang with the laughter of the
girls.
Then we got busy, so did the
girls, with the result as follows!
Blue Serge Suit... $53.50
Hart, Schaffner fc Marx
Overcoat 53.50
Fine Leather Bag 14.40

"You see," said Jess, "our
fund amounts to $240.00 and
we have purchased here gifts
amounting to $185.61, which
leaves us a balance of $54.29."
"But," broke in Bess, "we
really haven't but $4.29, The
extra $50.00 that came from
Uncle Will, you know, we're
going to give to dad in money.
We're gping to take a brand
new $50.00 bill and place it in
the vest pocket of the new vest
and let dad find it there. Now,
what will we do with the
$4.29?"
"Cigars," exclaimed Jess.
"Let's make 'em good
cigars," suggested Eddie
Owens.
And he and Moore contribut
ed to the cigar fund by two dol
lars each and Bess and Jess
started for the tobacconist.
Now, girls, get the Bess and
Jess spirit of giving practical
things for Christmas. It isn't
necessary to go in as exten
sively as Bess and Jess, but
what you buy for the male
members of the family and for
the fellow whose name, sooner
or later, you expect to confis
cate, let it be the useful, prac
tical things men like.
By the by, at Quick Money
Sale prices Bess and Jess saved
on the purchases they made
$43.34.
Do likewise, girls, save and
give the right way.
