LTG15-4tc Liquor Bandits in a Persevering Mood Get $1000 Loot from Home of I. A. Bennett; Three Bandits Battle with Watchman at Rosenbaum Estate It's a persevering gang of liquor bandits which is locating the private stocks of the township. The local police department is studying the actions of the gang but due to the speed and quietness with which the raids are conducted, they have not yet been able to secure a definite clew as to their identity. In Kenilworth, I. A. Bennett, head of the Chicago store which bears his name, returned Sunday to his home at 185 Sheridan road, after a pleasure tour in Florida. The house had been ransacked of wines and other liquors amounting to about $1000. The steel cabinets in which the liquor was stor- ed were completely destroyed. About a month ago the first attempt to break into the home was made. Tele- phone wires had been cut but the gang was apparently frightened off. Three times a persistant gang of three bandits has attempted to secure the valuable stock of liquors in the home of Edwin S. Rosenbaum, Sher- | idan road, Glencoe, and night watch- man George Barlow has vowed that the third raid will be fatal for the raiding party. The first time they number of shots at Barlow; the sec- ond time they broke in but failed to locate the object of their search. Last Sunday night they were seen prowling close to the house. Barlow, from a second floor window, sent a rain of small shot towards the gang from his shotgun. Before the three disappeared from sight he had fired three times and believes that one of the men was wounded. . Mr. Rosenbaum has cautioned the servants of the home to take special precautions in guarding the house since the third raid. The attempt to enter the beautiful home has now taken the form of a siege and whether or not there will be a pitch- ed battle in the next assault is a matter of conjecture, HERE IS FINAL ANSWER TO "PROHIBITION" TAX RUMOR Following the annual collection of personal property and rea! estate taxes in New Trier township by Col- lector Hoyt King, residents of the entire township discussed the in- creased tax and made various com- ments on the reasons for the higher rate. A great deal of comment to the eitect that nation-wide prohibition was the principie reason for higher taxes reached the ears of Mrs. L. C. Norton, 370 Walnut street, actively interested in the work of the W. C. T. U. She communicated with Col- lector King and the following answer from his is expected to dispell all thoughts of associating the taxes with prohibition: "The increase in internal revenue tax is due to increased valuation and expense of administration and not due to prohibition.--~Hoyt King, col- lector of taxes in New Trier town- ship." COMMUNITY SING The third community sing under the auspices of the Parent-Teacher association will take place at the Sko- kie school on Tuesday, March 16, at 8 o'clock in the evening. Mrs. Phile- mon B. Kohlsaat will lead the sing- ing. Mrs. Charles Howells Coffin has charge of the affair and will be assist- Eat Wallace Rumsey and Mrs. Lawrence Janney.
