MIDNIGHT ENCOUNTER WITH BURGLAR.
 Between l and o'clock Saturday morn ing, MT. John o. Grannis had spirited interview with @ burglar at his residence,
 No. IA Euclid avenue. Mrs. Grannis,
 who happened to be awake, was startled
 at seeing the shadow of man npon the wall of their sleeping apartment, made by light which was dimly burning in the adjoining room. She quietly nudged her husband, who immediately proceeded to go for the uninyited guest. In getting out of bed he accidentally closed the door, and upon reopening it was greeted
 with the compliments of the burglar in the shape of a shot from a revolver. Most
 fortunately the bullet missed him, and he
 sprang upon the assassin, graphing him just as he was in the act of firing again.
 Striking the weapon upward at the instant it was discharged, the ball passed harm lessly into the ceiling. bs
 Mir. Grannis smote him with his fist,
 knocking him down, and endeavored to wrest the weapon from his hand In the struggle the cylinder was wrenched from its place and remained in the possession of MT. Grannis. The burglar finally suc- ceeded in freeing himself, and, concluding that he had caught a Tartar, stood not upon the order of his going. He made his escape from door in the basement,
 which he had opened with skeleton. key and thus effected an entrance. He lost his hat in the melee, and his boots were found outside. The police were put on the, alert, and it is believed he will be captured. A man with 8 complete ''kit'' of skeleton keys, ssoutsiders," etc., was arrested on Friday. He is supposed to be a partner of the other.- Cleveland Herald. Jatly 9. Her a....tf n

q An Ohio paper tells the following: Our sheriff, M. M. McPhetridge, lost valua- ble silver watch in 9 strip of timber in Davies county, fifteen years ago, and after a thorough search, was unable to find it. The timber has since been cleared, and has been under cultivation about six years. Six weeks ago, as little girl of MT. Wig ellsworth was planting beans, she found silver watch with silver chain attached. After taking it home, she gave it to- her father, who opened it and founds Mr.. Mo Phetridge's name engraved upon the in side. The watch and chain were in good preservation, and Mr. McP Phetridge states that the only damage done to 1t was where a horse had trodden upon the edge.
