creams issuing from tho throat Of

awakened fresh interest in the matter and
promised a solution to the mysterious
screams heard the night previous. Inquiries
being instituted the owner of the CLOAK and
hat proved to be Miss Hurley, living witt
Mr.. Pennington's family. Miss Hurley had
been down town and had just reached the
! gate of Mr.. Pennington's residence, when q
man, who had undoubtedly been following
her home, seized her by the cloak. It was
then she gave utterance to the screams which
startled the neighbors. In the struggle

house, where she affrightedly told her story

wise he would receive we'll merited punish
ment. The act was most daring one, ant
