In the pocket of William Rowe, arrested, together with a friend named Whalen, at State and Van Buren Sts., Tuesday, was found a pearl handle to an opera glass that has been identified as a part of the goods lost by C. D. Peacock recently, when one of his windows was smashed and five opera glasses taken. The boys were acting suspiciously and are locked up. It is thought they can be connected with numerous other window smashings.

The rumor that C. D. Peacock was going to establish a Michigan Ave. branch in the Congress Hotel was not without foundation. He held an option on the premises formerly occupied as the tea room, but let it expire, as he considered the rental asked out of proportion to the space to be occupied.

An unusual elaborate window display of wedding rings in the State St. window of C. D. Peacock, Inc., is attracting a great deal of interest. The window is decorated in a light tan silk with a picture of a church in the background. In front of the church stand plaster casts representing Pocahontas, the first native American Bride and her husband, John Rolfe, who were married in April, 1614. These figures were made especially for this display. Reproductions of wedding rings used in all ages and all countries were shown and these were all made from descriptions or pictures. Several weeks time and great expense were necessary to assemble the material for this window.
