Lyra, AmericanJy. Gossard and NerCorsets v Ijower Floor Ransacked and Man; Valuable Pieces of Cut Glass Also Taken, Including Bulky Bowl Weighing SO Pounds. Operating: with an automobile, taking care to avoid leaving fingerprints, and using precautions which stamp them as first class bouse thieves, a gang- of robbers early yesterday morning broke into the home of F. L Fuller, vice- president of the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company, at 03 Spring street. Portland Heights, and escaped with about J1000 worth of cut glass, silverware, lace and linen. Using an unlocked basement window for their entrance the thieves went through the house thoroughly, with the exception of the bedrooms oc cupied by the family 'of Mr. Fuller. Two unoccupied bedrooms were entered as well as all the rooms on the ground floor of the house. The bedrooms in which the family were sleeping, were locked, and apparently no attempt was made to enter them. Preparations Are Made. After all the communicating doors of the bouse had been opened and padded with napkins to prevent their creaking or slamming, the thieves car ried out three drawers full of silver' ware, linen and cut glass, took them to a point In the brush about a block south of the house, ana tnere emptier them, leaving the drawers and taking away the contents. The only articles taken from the bedrooms were a case of draughting Instruments, In a rose wood box, the property of Mr. Fuller, and a pair of expensive binoculars, but the latter were left with the buffet drawers in the brush. One of the most expensive articles, as well as the bulkiest taken, was a cut glass bowl, weighing about 50 pounds and being several feet in cir cumference. Other glassware, most of which was of "rose" cutting, was a berry dish, a celery dish, a bon-bon dish, and several small dishes of dif ferent kinds. The silver Included a tea set. a tea ball, an Ice pitcher, a round silver tray with beaded edge, on which was set a cut glass water bottle and six glasses, all of which were stolen. Flae Linen Taken. The linen was a Cluny lace table cloth six feet in diameter and worth $125, a dozen dollies to match, a Maltese lace round lunch cloth, a dozen large and a dozen small doilies to match. Besides these the entire set of seven dozen knives, forks, spoons and extra table service was taken, and a child's silver cup, an heirloom. Detectives Snow, Coleman and Goltz, assigned to the case, are at a loss to define the class of thieves who perpe trated the theft. The large amount of silverware and cut glass, which cannot be sold by thieves for more than a fraction of Its value, and the linen, which is almost Impossible of sale by thieves under ordinary circumstances, have led them to believe that the sale had been arranged for by private per sons before the theft was attempted. Although a neighbor told the detec tives that she heard the clinking of silver about 4 o'clock yesterday morn ing, and noticed the sound of the run ning engine of a motorcar, the alarm was not sounded until a maid, coming from her rooms about C o'clock found the place In disorder.

' --'K,jr--r t J tor f, , SCUIMAXN-HEIMC THE programme for tne rarrar concert last Wednesday evening hunt, beside the lovely selections which the young prima donna sang, the welcome news of the return to Portland of Schumann-Heink. There la no other artist on the roster of the world's famed singers who can sing aeain and again to ever increasing audiences except the great contralto. and the date of ber concert nere at the Helllg theater is October 24. Part 1a Riimmiir linn been BTient bv CKkiinirn.nalnlr at her California home, 16 miles from San Diego, on a rocky pinnacle ovenooaing me Deau tlful El Canjon Valley. "Musical America" thus .describes Bohumann-Heink as Grosmutter' Schumann-Heink. who with four of her children Hans, Ferdlnan, Maria and George Washington a daughter-ln-). mv Y4an TTefnlc. and a tlnv granddaughter and namesake, Ernes tine Schumann-iieinK, unitea in a glo rious reunion this Summer: "Sneaklner of tha reunion Mme. tjchu- niMi.Hlnl( Rfilri ; 'Oh. we had such a wonderful moving in, such a lovely time of it we had. It was the first time in my life that my children cia everything for me. No servant, noth ing, and they did the cooking and the waiting and set the table and washed the dishes, and oh, it was so good I And I Just sat and looked and looked and I could do nothing. They would not let me. The love I bear my chil dren has made me what I am,' con tinued the contralto. "Aside from her work Mme. Schu mann-Heink is the most domestio woman in the world. She was born a hausfrau and has remained one by preference, but so much of her life has been spent in hotels and on the road that when, a few months In the year, : she finds herself In a cest of her own, like this California home, she revels in it. Cleaning and mending her many costumes is her recreation and darning bagfuls of the children's stockings, and brooms and pots and pans are at once her greatest Joy and wildest dissipation. She leans over the washtub herself to do her finer laces and materials, hangs them out to dry and when her work is over feels all the honest pride of a professional washerwoman." STEEL CARS ARRIVE Rolling Stock of New Valley Line Is at Beaverton. 14 COACHES ARE DELIVERED Each Vehicle Will Be Provided With Motor and Have Smoking Com partment Second Shipment of 14 Trailers Is Now on Way. Fourteen steel passenger cars were received at Beaverton yesterday for the use of the lnterurban electric line of the Portland. Eugene & Eastern Railway Company in tne Willamette Valley, their presence being indicated on the sidetracks at the shops by a long streamer oi Driinant rea coloring against a background of green verd ure. At Beaverton tne new can vii be fitted with motors, dead-man ccn o i rViroVpa iichtfi heating annara- tus and pantagraph, the new Bhops of the company neing aDie to turn uui about eight complete cars a month.

Bears, lately connected with the New York Central and Interbor ough roads, now a resident of Port land. Each of the cars is to be a motor car, having two compartments, one Intended for smokers. Another batch of 14 trailers, which are en route to Port land will be single compartment cars. The cars are 47 feet in length and of standard width. They are of steel con struction with the exception of the inside window ledge and arm rest of the lounge seats, which are of wood. The sides of the car are made of girder steel Instead of lapped sheet steel, thus adding to material strength. The ex terior is a brilliant red, and It is an nounced that this is used as a safety color. It is maintained that a red car will attract the eye much more quickly than a green car, and thus avoid many accidents at road crossings. The In terior of the new cars are of a mahog any color, the lining being agosate, a composition that Is a non-conductor of heat and cold and will crumble Instead of splintering In case of accident. Unable to secure accommodations at .Beaverton for the mechanics the com pany is compelled to employ, the Wil lamette Valley Line will at once begin the erection of a flat in which quarters will be provided for 10 families and 24 single men.
