upon the floor, torn open, and
several pounds of nails poured into
them in fact the furniture and al

was turned topsy-turvy, broken and
torn and lett III a thoroughly de-
moraliZed condition. 1t was un-
doubtedly the work OF some ma

through a spirit of malicious mean
ness than tor the purpose of conn.,
mitting robbery. Admittance
was gained to the building through
a window, in which there was a
broken pane Of glass. We are in
hopes that the perpetrators of this
piece Of contemplate meanness may
be secured. and made to pay the
fullest penalty of the law therefor.
The officers of the law should not
permit such out1ages in onr midst
without using every means at COM
mand TO ferret out and. punish the
guilty perpetrators.
