SECRET ORDERS ARE NAMED FOR ANIMALS Newest Addition Is That Called "White Mice." Chicago, 111., July 25. To the 2.000,000 Elks, Owls and members of other benevolent societies in the United States which have zoological names has Just been added the newly organized "Fraternal Order of White Mice." With this newcomer in the field the names of at least a score of the better known beasts and birds have been utilized as titles for societies. The tendency to select animal names seems to be a deep seated and growing one, and an investigation into the uses of these names would make an Interesting study. The Fraternal Order of the Moose is one of the most recent additions to the "Elks" and the "Buffaloes" and orders named for the big animals. Among the benevolent societies the Owls has 156 nests all over the country, with a home nest in South Bend, Indiana. There are over 76,000 members belonging to these. The Fraternal Order of Eagles has an enrollment of over 250,000 members and the Elks is one of the largest benevolent societies in Chicago, the total disbursements running into millions of dollars. The Independent Order of Foresters has an enrollment of 255,000 members and its total disbursements for benefits to its members, amounts to $22,500,000 since Its organization in 1874. The queerest named secret society found in Chicago, however, is the Concatenated Order of Hoo Hoos, an organization of lumbermen, with a large membership. FAMILY REUNION. H. E. Penny, county clerk, has received notice of the annual reunion of the Penny family of Indiana and Ohio will be held at the Greenville fair grounds, August 20.

$10,000 WAS SECURED.

SAFE DOORS OPENED ON HINGES AFTER DYNAMITE HAD BEEN APPLIED OCCURRED WHERE CITY WAS GUARDED. New York, July 25. Blowing open two safes with dynamite and carrying away a load of gold and silver from the closely packed business secenough to break down an ordinary man, was the feat accomplished by cracksmen today without hindrance from the police, although, that part of the city is supposed to be well guarded The robbery occurred in the offices of Thomas J. Dunn Co., manufacturing jewelers on the third floor of 101 Chambers street. The value of the stuff stolen is more than $10,000. It weighed about seventy-five pounds. Two safe doors stood twisted and open when the employes entered the place today and the place was covered with debris' and marked with what looked like big powder smudges. Around the lock of each safe three holes had been drilled and through these some explosive, dynamite beyond a doubt, so police say, had been poured or sifted. The robbers had banked the safes well to muffle the sound and deaden the jar before they touched off the fuses. The explosions tore off the combinations and let the doors swing open without tearing them off the hinges. The robbers were well repaid for their work. There was little of value left in the safe. The police have no clue to the burglars. FAMILY WOULD SUFFER IF RE WERE PUNISHED For This Reason Frame Will Not Be Prosecuted. Owing to the desire of Harmon Shofer, the liveryman and the only person who suffered Injury, no charges have been filed against Oscar Frame, the painter, who released a horse attached to a buggy and permitted the animal which belongs to Shofer to wander about on the streets last Tuesday evening. The authorities contemplated prosecuting Frame. Shofer learned that to punish Frame would be severer punishment for his wife and five children. If the man's fine were paid, it was asserted his family would have to bear the brunt and if he went to jail the family would be the further sufferer.

Georgia Woman Objects to Simple Atlanta, Ga. July 25. "Quit your durn foolishness and come home," was the postscript to a long letter received by Representative Glenn from his wife, who has viewed with, apprehension and some jealously the result of her husband's campaign for a simpler toilet for the women of today in order to give men a clearer idea of the real woman as she is without the aids of the modern dressmaker and drug stores. "I am going back to Whitfield county on Sunday;" said Mr. Glenn, "no matter what the danger." Every day adds to the stack of letters received by the legislator from irate women. "Some of them have been so warm," said Mr. Glenn, "that I have been WILDCAT SNRUCK, BUT IT DIDN'T HURT Leg Into Which It Buried Teeth Was a Wooden One. Square Lake, Me., July 25. Henry V. Johnson and Sam Provost, hunters, were closing in on a bear when their dog treed a wildcat, and Johnson, a "tenderfoot" hunter from Somerville, Mass., fired at it, wounding it in the foreleg. The enraged beast leaped upon Johnson and buried its fangs in his ankle. Johnson, without wincing, shot it "You're about the nerviest sport I ever took out," exclaimed the guide, in admiration, as he gazed at Johnson's torn trousers. I guess we'd better get a doctor." "Oh, I guess not," replied the latter. "What we need Is a carpenter. You see, that was a cork leg he set his teeth into."

"Your bill is a step in the right direction, Mr. Glenn," 'writes a suffragette, "for should it be passed the matter of dress will be equalized and women will be placed upon a common level." Hut the most frenzied of all are the dressmakers. One of them writes: "Are you trying to drive us out of business? Don't you know every woman would make her own clothes under your bill? You will turn loose on the world thousands of women who would be without means of support and destroy a noble profession. You deserve a cowhiding; some kind of punishment, anyhow, and you had better watch out." GIGANTIC MERGER IS IN PROSPECT Independent 'Phone Companies to Join Hands. New York, July 25.

COACHMEN TRAINING TO BECHAUFEURS Horse Is Forsaken for the Automobile. . . New York, July 25. -The steady pro gress being made by the automobile. in supplanting the horse-drawn ve hicle is clearly shown in the number of coachmen who are training to be chauffeurs. These men have seen hundreds of wealthy men dispose the hundreds of wealthy people dispose of their horses and carriages to estab-' 11 sh exclusive automobile stables, and, ' more recently, tie livery stable owners replacing their horse-drawn vehlcles with taxameter cabs. Thus It la . only natural, as the enrollment lists of the New York school of automobile, engineers show, for the coachmen to seek in large numbers a new field of employment and become chauffeurs. The chauffeur of the modern automo-' bile does not need to be an experienc' ed mechanic to 'keen his car In run ning order, and consequently the' coachman is no longer handicapped In , this respect when he seeks to become a chauffeur.
