ANOTHER ROBBERY.


Rev. White, on Thursday, Goth,
concluded to take another trip to
Cheat river, not having before his
eyes the partial result of his last.
The thief, well posted in the move
ment of Mr.. and Mrs. White, also
concluded to pay another visit to the
parsonage, did so, and the next morn
ing the town was excited to a fever
pitch by the news that Mr.. Whites
house had been completely sacked.
Murder will OUT is an old adage,
but that it is applicable even in these
modern times was shown by this case.
1t had been suspected, at the first
robbery, that the thief was woman,
so it proved. A young woman was
seen entering the yard connected
with the house, about the middle of
the afternoon. AS soon as the rcp-
berry was made known, she was in
formed on and arrested Alice Man
ming, the girl, was brought befol G
Justice Thompson, waived her trial.
and was committed to Jail. The
search at the house of her grandpa
rents revealed perfect curiosity
shop; here were found pictures of the
great and good of Morgantown; the
articles taken from the houses of
Rev. White and President Thompson,
indeed nearly everything that has
been missed for the last year was
found. The only thing needed to
make one think himself back in the
days of Dickens, was the absence of
"Little Nell" Her grandfather and
grandmother were arrested on the
charge of receiving and aiding in con-
cealing stolen goods. The old man
was released, but the old woman,
aged about seventy-three, was placed
in durance vile, along with her prom
Using granddaughter, 1t is to be
hoped that they will be punished to
the full extent of the Law, and that
these depredations, which have been
a burning shame to our little city,
will be henceforth and forever stop
ped. Catch the chicken thieves next
and then we will be happy.

rial for Il readable local But for the
benefit of the solid practical part of
your readers, who feed on something
more substantial than sensation fog,
and moonshine, will jot down these
few items ofinterest, which may serve

bread to live upon.
Corn that has escaped the storms
looks well and gives promise Of fair
crop, while that that was in the inn

Thos +. Watson, of Smithtown
says of the proposed marrow gauge
railroad from Morgantown to Fair
miles, $4,000, if the work be pushed
forward, he will build one mile of
