Snyder, whose body was found near Glen coe early this month: Carev Snvder'a rmcpr wa a Mi-!?,! one. fie win reared in Kansas Citv, and though indulged in every way by his father, began getting in trouble at an early age. Ilia most sensational and probably greatest criminal act was when he and a "pal," on the night of .May 1, 1902, held up aud robbed U. 11. Stevens, a pawnbroker. Snyder and W. T. Grimes, a Platte county farmer's son, were accused of robbing 'the pawnbroker and his wife of $6,750 worth of diamonds in front of Stevens' home, 2532 T roost avenue, about 1 1 :3o o'clock the night of May 1, 1901. The robbery was particularly well planned aud bold in execution. The highwayuieu telephoned to the house during the evening and a servant girl answered the 'phone. The person ask ed if Mr, Stevens was at home, aud up on being told that he was not, asked where he was. The girl told the man that her employer was at the theater with his wife. The two men theu went to Twenty-fifth street and Troost avenue, where they waited for Steveus' return. When he alighted from the car tliev held him up at the point of a revolver and took the following jewels: Two di amond rings, 2i carats each, worth $1,500 each; one diamond stud, valued at $2,100; one diamond ring, worth f l.ooo; aud a repeating watch, valued at $050; the value ot all thejewelrv being fixed by Mr. Steveus at $6,750. When the highwaymen first showed themselves, Stevens claimed he started to light them, but uiawife begged him to give up the jewelry for fear he would be killed. He was able to give au accurate description of the two men, and Snyder and Grimes were arrested soon after iu Clay county and brought to Kansas City. For this act Suyder was tried before Judge Wofford and sentenced to three years in the penitentiary. A stay of exe cution was given him on condition that he appear before the court at stated times to explaiu his behavior. This or der was to be effective during the entire term of the three years' sentence. The parole was given on the condition of Snyder's leading an honest and upright life, a violation of which would render hia parole void and himseli liable to ar rest. The last time young Snyder re ported to Judge WoiVord was on Sep tember 5, and then his father prevailed upou the judge to remove the order com pelling hia son to report at regular in tervals and allow him to go to Oregon, where he agreed to establish 'Jie bov up on a cattle ranch. He married before leaving. -f jm-n v - t , 1 L i We Are Here to Stay Ring us up Any Time And do Your Buying by Phone It is surprising how popular this has become.
