(Special., The Marseilles police have arrested a man named Maurice Roussel, who is known far and wide in France as "the motor car burglar." Roussel, who was leav ing Marseilles for Buenos Ayres, is only 32 years old, but has during the last two years committed at least 70 and probably many more daring burglaries. He had a magnificent so-horsepower motor car, and his favorite victims were solicitors, country bankers and other people likely to have considerable sums of money in their offices. He called in his motor car on these gen tlemen in the day time On some small matter in which he pretended to need their help, took notes of the disposition of their offices, and in the course of the night removed what valuables he could find and disappeared. The police have known of him for a long time. On the night of February 20 he committed seven successful bur glaries in and near Chateau Thierry, getting away with over 115.000, and two days later he got $3000 out of one office and robbed five others of lesser amounts. to the short brim and rounding crown I A random selection from the extensive of medium height, with smart trim- stock of a local millinery shop, sftow mings at either the front or left sicle. 1 ing the -wide variety of tailored de- any- rough straw and velvet bands is shown in No. 1.

The feathers are in the same tone of wlne red as the straw, and a broad band of velvet encircles the ;rowi.
