As previously announced, the grand
charity ball for the benefit of the suffer-

anon and Mamisburg were present to
engage in the merry dance. This is the
first effort that has been made in this
city to help the sufferers, and the pro-
ceeds will probably answer to the sum of

On Friday night last thieves entered
the clothing house Of Fl. & L. Loven-
hart, by lowering themselves with a
rope from the skylight. They were tasty
gentlemen, and selected several of the
best suits of clothing in the establish
ment, decorated themselves with jewelry,
donned new hats and, with their other
booty, glided out the back door, and
nothing has been seen or heard of them
since. 1t is passing strange, indeed,
that such robbery should take place on
Main street where it is guarded, not only
by the regular police force, but also by a
private watchman. The gas was burn
ing in the room at the time, and it is
very singular that they should have es-
capped detection. The amount stolen is
not certain, but ranging between 500
and $500.
