from church Sunday evening Mrs.
Hiram Mason discovered hall door
of her residence open. She was
confident she had closed it with her
usual care when she left tho house for
church. A rapid search of the resi-
dence was made but nothing wrong
was observed. Next day, however,

apparent, among them the pockets of
Mr.. Mason's clothes wrong side out.
Some parties promenading the avenue,
and knowing the absence of the family
from home, observed a light moving
about through the upper story of the
house carly in the evening. Mrs. Mason
has made provision for such providers
and hereafter twill be serious matter
for them.
