hour of o'clock in the morning, or the at

absence on business. The other night she
Weakened and started bolt upright at the
figure Of man in her room. He made for
the front door and she after him, and into
the street, and she followed. She had no
time to dress. There was long chase be-
fore single policeman was met. Mrs. Han
kins explained, and several other policemen
and belated and befogged stragglers came
up. Then the chase was renewed, but the
burglar was lost.
Mrs. Hawkins was finally escorted back to
her dwelling. She supposed that her watch
and chain, and purse. and jewelry, and some
articles of vertu, were gone, and was ac-
cordingly disconsolate. Striking light,
with the assistance of two or three kind
policemen and some sympathizing wayfar-
ers, she found her watch and chain, and
purse, and jewels, and articles of vertn, all
right. She now first realized her undressed
condition, and popped into bed like prairie
dog into his hole, requesting her visitors to
retire by the front door, which she proposed
to lock after them; and SO the curtain fell
on the Woman in White. The select audi
ence were much interested in the perform
ance, and the police We're of opinion that the
woman simply had an ugly dream. 1t was,
however, good, plucky performance, bur-
glar or no burglar.

is special aggravation, prompting an honest

the remark of judge at Winsboro, who, In
sentencing burglar, said: "You have
been found guilty Of an otfense for which
you might be sent to the penitentiary for
thirty years. The Court will sentence you,
however, to only one year. If you are con-
victed again, you will be sentenced to
twenty years; if third time, to thirty
years. If you are convicted fourth time,
you will then have become eligible to seat

The Crops.

The planters complain of the dry weather,
and the crops need rain badly, as the
ground is very hard and dry. Since the
wet weather ceased the corn and cotton have
improved wonderfully, but the advantage
gained will prove Of little value should the
present hot, dry weather continue much
Observation-Disclosures Republican, 16lh.
The crops have been well worked and are
in fine condition and perfectly clean, but
need rain just now, especially the corn. The
weather has at last come down to it's legiti-
mate strides, and is in every respect, the
beautiful, genial and balmy Sunny South
weather OF old. The river, which has thought
better of it's evil behavior elsewhere, has
commenced it's earnest decline, and has re-
coded full three feet up to the present time.
