ROUND UP DANG OF SHOPLIFTERS { “Dashing Dora” Leader of No torious Band 'of Fashionable Berlin Robbers. LOOT OYER MILLION DOLLARS Every Step of Polico Investigation of Gang Results in Fresh Sensa tional Disclosures—Eight Are in Custody. Berlin.—White slave traffic, the morphia habit and the practice of blackmail were joined to theft, fraud and kleptomania In the “DanBe Maca bre” of the band of Berlin shoplifter* led by "Dashing Dora.” Every step of the police Investiga tion of the activities of this gang, eight of whom are In custody, re sults in fresh sensational disclosures. Several members of the band plead that they are addicted to the drug habit and are not responsible for their acts. Mrs. Foerster, one of Dora’s “dashing” daughters, Is in the hospital, suffering from morphia poison. Her husband was arrested as he was in the act of concealing stolen property valued at several thousand pounds. Louise Morvlllus, her sister, has been released from custody In order that she may go to her sick child, but not before she had confessed to the police that for years she has been a white slave for her husband, Frank Morvlllus, who Is director of the Ger man disposal board. Further raids have been made by the police on the luxurious homes of “Dashing Dora" and her accomplices, and the enormous pile of stolen goods at Clmrlottenberg police station has received considerable addition. Confiscate Bank Accounts. The bank accounts of the gang, which amount to many thousands of pounds, have been confiscated. Morvillus has pleaded that hls mother-in-law Is the Victim of klep tomania. It has been alleged against Morvil lus that he heavily bribed the police in order to avoid arrest. Members of the gang, who were caught with $200,000 worth of stolen goods ln their possession, have ter rorised the largest Berlin luxury stores for many years, and their dep redations are estimated to exceed H,* 000,000 in value. Most of the prop erty was disposed of ln Holland, though a considerable quantity Is be lieved to have found its way to Britain, France and America. Charlottenburg police station re sembled a great warehouse. Them were piles of china and leather goods, Jewels and other valuable articles, which were taken chiefly from a lux urious six-room apartment occupied by “Dashing Dora.” This woman now forty-four, who has been twice divorced, Is married to a youth of twenty. “Dashing Dora’s” home was raided by policemen just at the seven crimi nals were discussing a New Tear’s present for "the firm," consisting of two limousines with a liveried chauf feur and footmen to assist them in tbelr “profession.” Dora and her woman accomplices, who lived like princesses, mixed in the highest so ciety. She Is considered the most brazen and cleverest of light-fingered crooks on record. The list of booty carried off by her gang Includes a priceless antique porcelain set of 178 pieces which was lifted piecemeal from an Unter den Linden shop In four visits. An easy Job for them was a gold coffee aet of thirty-two pieces valued at $5,000. This was carried off in one visit. Special Belt* Used. Dora and her friend* were equipped with specially constructed leather belts fitted with Innumerable hooks to which they attached valuables as they passed through the shops. The incident which led to the raid on Dora’s home illustrates the gang’s audacity. They fell under the suspi cion of a salesgirl at one Berlin lux ury shop, but they bluffed the man ager into un humble apology. The next day the husbands of the two women visited the shops, Indig nation personified, and, flashing 1,000 mark notes In the face of the manager, they Insisted on a written apology from the salesgirl and the manager himself. This was given, but the manager was afterward struck with the youth of the husbands as com pared with their wives. He telephoned for the police, and the gang were ar rested.

Preston, of Baltimore, In Charge The work of preparing the houses and grounds at Gracewood, the seat of the new State institution for Back ward Chilrden, Is going forward under the supervision of Dr. George H. Pres ton, the recently elected superintend ent. Dr. and Mrs. Preston have been at Gracewood for several weeks, mak ing a survey and getting everything in shape to open the school as soon as possible. The buildings are being overhauled, the farm straightened and a dairy herd bought. The prelimin aries are well ln hand and at no dis tant date the doors will be thrown open for the care of those children of our State who require special train ing. Gracewood is eight miles from Au gusta, Georgia, and was bought by the State from the Tuttle-Newton Or phanage. It is a beautiful location; the houses are of solid concrete and concrete block, they are exceptionally well constructed; the cottage plan is carried out; the dairy is very fine; an electric light plant is installed, as well as a water system. The extent to which this school can be operated, of course, depends entirely upon the lib erality of the legislature toward this much needed Institution. The number of pupils to be admitted will depend solely upon the maintenance fund voted. Those who wish further in formation, blanks for entrance, rules under which the school will operate, etc., can communicate with Or. George 1L Preston, Gracewood, Ga., who will be glad to furnish any information that he can. Don’t Neglect Eye*. The majority of people do not car* for their eyes as they should.

OLD CARLYLE HOUSE SURPASSING interest, because of Its unmatched historical associa tions, is the venerable home of John Carlyle, who came to America as col lector of customs for the British Crown. It Is located near the Potomac river in Alexandria, Virginia, which settle ment was at that time a sort of Amer ican headquarters for the British em pire. It was hmlt in 1752, on top of an old fort which it is thought was constructed about the year 1600. Solidly built of cut stone which it is believed was brought from England, the walls of this two-story-and-ba.se ment house are wonderfully well pre served and much of the interior fur nishings remain but little unchanged from the days when this was the scene of much old-fashioned hospital lty. In the hallway stands a slender, grandfather’s clock which for more than a century recorded the passing of time, t'pstalrs Is the ancient can opy bed, so high that a step was nec essary to enable one to comfortably climb into It, in which slept General Braddock who was sent to this coun try to take charge of the British for ces during the French ami Indian wars. It was In the blue-room of this man sion that the celebrated and historic Council of the Governors of the Col onies was held, which contributed so much to the growing discontent that later expressed itself in the Revolution ary war. General George Washington fre quently visited here and It Is said that hls commission as commander Id chief of the Colonial army was handed to him ln this house.
