Walkerville Has an Early Morning Rob-

Again The MINER has to report rob-

"A good thing for the news ''rustler,' but

it happened at Walkerville and at an early

Northey, who was away from home. He
is employed at the Alice on the night shift.
and does not get home until after 5 5o'clock.
Sometime shortly previous to that hour
he made his appearance at the Northey
residence. He first tried to get in at the
bedroom window, ond being. unsuccess-
full, next tried the back door. He then
went to the kitchen window, out OF which
some glass had been broken, and reaching
though, removed the stick which held the
window down. He then entered the sitting
room where he went through trunk, care
fully replaced the contents, and quickly
proceeded in his Investigations. He made
misstep when opposite the bedroom
door, and Mrs. Northey got up to see what
was the matter. The moment :e opened
the door the fellow, who was just in 'front.'
threw a handful OF snuff, or other material,
in her eyes, whereupon she tainted and 1ell

Mrs. Jailu G. Cnrilsle.

Mrs. John G. Carlisle, wife of Speaker
Carlisle, OF the House oi Representatives,
is one of the leaders in Washington society,
and the possibility OF her husband receiv-
ing the nomination of the Democratic
party for the Presidency in 1888, in no way
diminishes her popularity. Mrs. Carlisle is
the daughter of Mayor John a. Goodson,
one OF tt e old aristocrats of Kentucky.
She was sent to school at Covington, where
she received a classical and society ednca-
ton. In temperament she is vivacious,
genial and pleasant, with a charming open
manner. During recent tconversatiou with
Susan B. Anthony, she expressed
herself as delighted with the courage
and energy displayed by the Woman's
Rights people-whereupon Miss Anthony
suggested that Mrs. Carlisle ought to know
more OF the Woman Suffrag:sts, person
ally. To this Mrs. Carlisle responded that
it was doubtless because she did not know
them nearer that she esteemed them so
much. Mrs. Carlisle has been in Washing
ton nine years. She is the mother OF two
sons, w. X. and L. J. Carlisle, both young
lawyers at Wichita, Kansas. Coming from
. border State Mrs. Carlisle serves as q
connecting link between the partisans and
at her gatherings no one class predomin-
ates. During the Washington season she
receives on Wednesdays.
