One week ago last night the residence
of Mr.. Edward Wilson, on the Philadel.

entered by thieves and among other
things taken was large collection Of
jewelry belonging to Miss Sallie Stew
art, who resides with Mr.. Wilson. A full
account of the robbery was given in the
REPUBLICAN, At ths titns, aud a large re-
ward was offered for the recovery Of the
diamonds and other jewelry. Since
hat time every effort has been put
forth by our Polics Department to OBJ
tain cine to the thieves, but APPARENTLY
without avail. On last Saturday even
ing Miss Stewart walked out on the
front porch at Mr.. Wilson's and not G.
ing package lying about tha centre Of
the porch picked 1t up, when 10, here
vas all her missing js~elry wrapped
up in a newspaper and returned, in fact,
not an article missing. The return Of
the articles is just rs mysterious a.
their theft, and Miss Stewart can give
no explanation whatever of tbs act
Another popularity about this case il
that Miss s. had a watch stolen some
time ago which was returned in tn.
same manner. They must be very ac-
commodating thieves who rob Miss S
