Laatf night an- extra waiter tapped O's cash register for an amount between 180, and $100, while the busy restaurateur was enjoymg a few hcmra off duty. " Because of the few details of descrip- tlon, name, etc., of the diehoneet em- ploye, it is doubtful if he to ever ap- prehended. ,\::f.;'<'-- The name by which Ihex Maploye Vwas known' to O'Flaherty is Jlby. Hit surname was not* exacted when he was employed a few days ago. Short- ly after 9 o'clock Sunday night the ex- tra waiter made an excuse to a wait-f, ress that he was going to a drug store for some medicine. That waar the last that was seen of hint. About 11 o'clock Mr. Flaherty returned to the cafe and wkedl^wailrewi about the whereabouts of the extra waiter. "He went to a drjjg store an hour ago," was the reply/of the waitress. "Drug store nothing," was the re- tort of the excited cafe owner, who quickly scented something wrong. "Better look tn the cash register and see if any change is left." , - A hasty eTamtnatton of the cash box revealed that the waiter had ab------_ -. y sconded with betweenfSO. and $100, merchant In Bvanston who has had ^anatdn merchants are complain- ing, of lack of police protection along tl^e right of way of the Chicago ft N^orthwestcri railway.

Bxpwn, a ^wholesaler in vegetables, who sells to the Eyanstpn merchants. Aceordwg^to Mr. Brown, he has been theiriotim of freight car thieves ever since he started conducting a busi- ness in Bvanston. He claims his teases run into the hundreds. ""'%f^;;^aya There Is a Gang. "It is not petty stealing that I am complaining of," said Mr. Brown; "There is a regularly organised gang at work here and I, apparently, am the goat. Just a few days ago I had more than 100 water melons stolen from my car. I put in a claim to the railroad company and received air answer that they would not allow the claim, as I had my own lock on the car door. As a matter offset, they did not molest the lock. 'What they did was to take a plank and knock out the front of the car. Then they must have had a wagon there to carry,off the melons, for anyone xnowa that it would take a good many persons to carry off toore'" than 100 melons." "..;/';., 'â- .'â- â- â-  -r ' *~- Mr. Browfc was asked whether or not he had ever appealed to the Bv- anston police,, "Say," he replied, "that Is ancient history. I have com- plained to them so many times and got no'results that I decided to save shoe leather and pocket my loss. The rail- way company has never sent any de- tectives here to investigate, either, that is, to my knowledge. 7 Net the .Only One. I am not the only one that has been stung by these thieves. Nearly every meroliai^fceed b» W:&*&*WW- mfctimfj^ :um dty poUce re- fuse, to »ot r think It would be up "to the railway company to send, offloers to snard their cars. If the thieves niake any more attacks on my cars like they did on the water melon one It; iwljl jj»ay the company to guard them, for they did io much damage to the freight car that an entire new. end will have to be put In." .At the police station it was stated that no reports of stealing along the tracks had been male to them in more than a year. "The last report we received," said the sergeant, "was about a year ago, when the dairymen said that they were missing- milk and cream. At that time the railway com- pany seat out deteottvea and the train crew was arrested charged with the stealing. That put an end to the stealing, as far as I hare learned." NAP EXAMINATIONS SAID TO BE TOO HARD which had been, left in the till a few hours, before hy Mr. O'Flaherty. 2,000 Brave Educators Are to Decide Whether Questions Are Unusual/ Whether the entrance examinations- for the naval academy are so rigid as to be virtually prohibitive is a, ques- tion the navy department la to leave to the decision of a Jury of 2,000 brave and dignified educators. It became known today that the department, stung by repeated charges that the examinations were unfair and illogical, had determined to snbmlt the matter to 2,000 high school principal* and college professors in every part of the United States. Rear-Admiral Victor Blue has or- dered printed 2,600 copies of the last examination paper and these soon will be sent broadcast. Accompanying each copy will be a series of queries, which/ when answered by the edu- cators, am calculated to settle for good the controversy over the "stiff- ness" of toe examinations. Here are the leading questions the educators are asked to answer.: "Is the examination too difficult for the ordinary high school student in his third year?" "Pick out the questions which seem Improper In an examination tor en- trance to the naval academy. "How long should, each examina- tion require?" "^ bono* of Mw 1* H. rree|han. Mia. H, M.
