RoRBERY-A Man Has Taken from
Him Flee Hundred ,DOliGrSin Gold and
Sitver, Through The Agency Of Fire.-0n
lust Thursday night, tho house OF Mr..
Enoch Moslander, who lives by him
self on Little Grave Creek, about four
miles from Moundsville, Marshal Co.,
was entered by four men, who demand.
ed his money. Mr.. Moslander told
them he had none. The robbers, how
ever, would take no denial, and again
called upon Mr.. NJ. to deliver up his
cash. A second time ho stated that he
had none. Tho robbers then caught
him, and threw him on large wood
fire which was burning in the fire place,
and held him omit. This was bringing
matters to crisis, and us Mr.. NJ. had
no desire to ronst for the sake of few
hundred dollars, no consented II they
would take him Off the fire, to tell them
where the money was. 10 this they
agreed, and removing him from his
uncomfortable position, were made ac-
quainted with the hiding place of the
lucre.
Five hundred dollars in gold and sill
yer passed into their possession, and
Mr.. N. has nothing now but burnt
extremity, TO remind him that he was
once the possessor Of wealth.

TIE LOVE OF FIEERY LEADS FE.
MALEs TO BAD ENDs.--SOnleWhere In
RItchietown lives a family named
Metz, which has heretofore been unno-
tIcad In our country'B annals, not per.
faIjs from any Inherent fault, but be-
cause Its doings have been past finding
out. On Saturday, however, the secret
ways were made plain, and the vile,
Mrs, Christina Metz, and her young
daughter, Annn, thirteen or fourteen
years old, sent u jail, there to remain
until they can give substantial bail for
their appearance at the May term OF the
Circuit Court.
The immediate cause OF Mrs. Chris
tina, and her daughter Anna, being de-
prlyed Of their liberty, was, that they
bud willfully, 1eloniously and mali
ciously, took, stole, or otherwise carried
away, a portion Of theprOperty Of Miss.
RebecCa j. Baker, milliner In Centre
Wheeling, .gu
One day last week Miss Baker missed
from their accustomed places a velvet
hat, and bonnet Of the Same expensive
material, which, together, were valued
at fourteen dollars. For some reason
or other she suspected the Metz family
OF having been concerned In their dis
appearance, and without delay took out
search warrant for their premises.
This was placed in the efficient hands OF
officer Hugh Harrison, who proceeded
TO the residence of the Metz family on
Saturday morning. After Il thorough
search, he was successful enough to
find tho missing articles carefully
slowed away in a place which, It was
hoped by tho deluded Nets, no prying
eyes would ever gaze into. Mr.. Har-
rison, rs in duty bound, forthwith ar.
rested Andrew Metz, the paternal head
of the family, and took him to Squire
Johnson's office.
At ten o'clock In the morning, Mr.. NJ.
was examined but succeeded in prov
ing his own innocence. 1t was fearful
" apparent, however, that Mrs. Chris
tina, and her daughter, Anna, were the
guilty parties. The mother was, there
fore, arrested and tried, and required to
give bail In the sum OF four hundred
dollars for her appearance at the May
term OF the Circuit Court; failiDg IN
which she WINS sent to jail.
During the afternoon, Anna, the
daughter, was brought before the same
Justice, and also committed.

"THAT Cock Will FIGHT."-A gen.
tlemAn, residing OH the Island, recent
ly brought home from Kentucky pair
Of fine game chickens, cock and hen.
From these two he hopes to raise of.
spring, with NIL their fathers fire and
all their mothers grace.
A gentleman, who does business In
the candy line, happened to get hold of
the rooster Saturday night, and forth
with took him into Logan's Drug Store.
in order that gentleman there, who
has an eye for fowl, might see his points.
Tho rooster was placed on the counter,
and one ofthc parties present set about
irritating him by striking at him with
his hand. This was accomplished with
out much difficulty, almost the first
motion causing the cock TO bristle up
and crow. AS II matter of curiosity, II
looking-glass was taken down from its
nail, and sci before king Chnntlcleer.
The bird Saw his reflection in the glass.
He supposed it was rival. He didn't
do the NarclSsus, however, and pine
away for love OF his own beautiful
shadow. No, he was true TO his in
stincts, md flying ut the seeming cock
with all the fury Of his nature,
struck with his spur, not the reflection,
but the glass, shivering it to pieces.

THE singing of children has al
ways been attractive, and hns always
called forth expressions of delight from
persons Of mature years, and even Of
old age. When the Great Teacher was
upon earth, little children shouted Ills
praise and received Ills appreciation,
and now TINT He has assembled to
heaven, He rejoices to hear their voices
ascending TO His throne. These
thoughts have been suggested by the
rich and sweet singing orthe three hum
dred and fifty little children Of tho
English Lutheran Sabbath School, who
celebrate their fourth anniversary ut
Washington Hall tonight. Persons
not connected with the school speak OF
their singing as remarkable, and supe-
riOr to that of mission schools in other
cities. Then too, the beautiful tree
with its two hundred lights, and the
Christmas decorations will DO attrnc-
tive, but greater than NIL, tho noble
work of the mission will enlist the
sympathy and encouragement Of IL
