DEATH HEBE OF BROTHER PFEIEER Widely Known and Loved Member of the Society of Jesus Died at City Hospital Sunday. Brother John Pfeiler of the Society of Jesus passed away at the city hos pital at 10:30 a. m. on Sunday. His death followed a painful and protract ed period of Illness from which there was little hope of recovery. He came to Augusta from Macon, where he was attached to St. Stanislaus College, to he treated by Dr. W. W. Battey. He underwent an operation during the past week which it was hoped might prolong his life. Conscious to the last, Brother Pfeil er died with a smile and a prayer on his lips. Ijlttle hope had been held out to him of his recovery, as he was In too serious a condition to be helped when brought from Macon, and at the last he knew that he was dying. The deceased was born In AVestpha lia, German, in August, 1871, and was In his 44th year. He had been a mem ber of the Society of Jesus for about twenty-one .tears. A man of profound learning and great ability, Brother Pfeiler was widely loved and revered among the priesthood as well as by the laity. His death will be an Ines timable loss to his order. The funeral exercises were held at the Sacred Heart Church Monday morning at 7 o’clock, when the body was sent to Macon to be Interred. The Rev. Father James I.onergan accom panied the remains to Macon. The deceased is survived by no rela tives in this country. ROBBERS BREAK GLASS AND FILCH, JEWELER'S WINDOW Prontaut’s Front Plate-Glass Shattered Sunday Night Dur ing Hard Rain and S2OO of Watch-Cases Stolen. When the front show window of Prontaut’s Jewelry Store at 644 Broad Street was broken inio Sunday night at 8:30 o’clock and a tray of gold watch cases stolen, perhaps the bold est and most brazen robbery was com mitted which has ever been recorded in Augusta. The plate glass was broken with a brick and the tray, valued at about S2OO, was extracted through the jagged hole. Another tray of about the same value was dis placed, as if the thief or thieves had attempted to take it as well, but for some reason it was left. The deed was done in the open street, which seems to have been en tirely deserted at the time owing to the torrents of rain. The broken plate glass attracted the attention of a lady and gentleman who passed soon af terwards, and then reported the mat ter to the policeman on the corner. On investigation it came out that two white men had been seen looking In the window in the afternoon and later hanging around that locality, lurking across the street. But the parties giving this information would not be able to identify the pair. —Mrs. J. T. Thomas and Miss Vir ginia Thomas have returned from a I pleasant visit with friends In Edge -1 field.

At about the same time a friend who he has trusted money for investment ab sconded with the funds. Wallace Is finally ruined. His wife is expecting a baby and he is desperate. He thinks of suicide as he carries a large policy paid in advance. But he realizes that suicide stops payment. So he hires a notorious gunman “to kill a man” who will wear a white hat and carry a raincoat on passing a given point at 10:30 on a certain night. The thug agrees, is paid, and the night appoint ed lies in wait. He is pulled off by a detective while taking aim, and Wal lace passes and repasses the spot in vain. Returning home the ex-hroker finds a letter from his friend w T ho ran off with his money, enclosing a cheek for SIOO,OOO.
