Last Sabbath, while Mr.. Edwin French
and his family, were at meeting, three
young fellows forced open the front door,
Of his residence and entered. They went
to the pantry and devoured all the pies,
and cake to be found, two cans of peach
es, and some oranges. Having satiated
their appetites they departed. There
were many things ofvaluc in the house,
g gold watch, silver spoons, jewelry &C.,
but none were disturbed. They made no
effort to escape or to secrete themselves,
and were found by sheriff Baird, and ar
rested while strolling about near the
Davidson House. They say that they
came from Mason City, laid out doors
Saturday Eight, and being hungry, with
no money to Guy a dinner, they. helped
themselves, ana Notwithstanding theiz
imprudence got item into Jail, they
seemed to think the whGle thing was q
good Joke.
