For the past year the young men, w hose appearance is one of entire in nocence, have been In the city quietly playing odd games without the suspi cion or the police being turned in their direction. Fraternizing with Ureeks, It was their habit to rob one of this na tionality while in their room under com promising circumstances. The victim could say nothing, but sufficient evi dence has been gathered to warrant the detectives in laying a statutory charge against them as well as one of vag rancy which will be probably changed to larceny. They disposed of their booty through Jacob Iladad. it seems, and Hadad, a Syrian, was also locked up by Detec tives Heliyer and Maloney last night. The Miller twins, who greatly resem ble one' uiuthei, would undoubtedly have continued their practices indefi nitely had they not thoughtlessly tak en so small a thing as a silk hand kerchief the other day.

This was ut 4 01 lock, and as Mr. Ilowkiir was nnsseti anoui j o'clock it Is evident thnt he bail been dead about an hour when the body wus found. Mr. Bowker had complained fre nneritlT of tha heat Friday nnd Satur day, saying that his head pained him extreme) v. He had always been an active man, and up to the last hour was Interested In the ftarden at his daugh ters pleasant home. He had never be fore exhibited nnv suicidal I nil Ilia t Ian, and it is believed by J. J. Dunning, dep-1 uty coroner, who nt tiuee made an in vestigation, that the heat of the day deranged the old gentleman's mind tem porarily and h sought relief forever in the cool air of the basement. Stepping upon two blocks of wood, Mr lfowksr had fastened the other end of his noosed rope to a nail in the rafter. Then, stepping off the block, he found the rest he wanted. Mr. Bowker was a widower and was born In Vermont- GUILTY OF THEFTS Coveting the goods they were to sell. John Kunyon and Caroline, his wile. each night took home several knives or some other article which in the ordi nary course of events would have stayed In one of the Oaks concession booths until well-tossed rings dropped over them and they went away as a souvenir of the amusement park. When Detectives Deliver and Maloney arrested the voung couple they at flist stoutly denied having helped themselves to stock of the ring-tossing booth. But the detectives had taken the liberty of visiting their room before they went to Tho Oaks, and one look In tho Runyon family trunk had been sufficient to war- ; rant the arrest. Finally both Runyon and his wife, who is a slender girl, only l'J years old, broke down under tho weight of con stant questioning and confessed to tha thefts. Among the plunder found in their room were 'several cheap gold watches, gaudy glassware nnd a gener al collection of concession articles. They worn working for Fritz fe Russell, who, unable to explain the continued short ages in the Runyon booth finally laid the matter before the police. Mr. end Mrs. Runyon, the first mar ried pair to ho both Implicated in a robbery case for a long time, will appear in the municipal court Monday.
