Friday night, at the early hour of half
past o'clock, while Mrs. George S. Gre
was alone with her children III her resi-
dence corner of Chetimaches and Claiborne
streets, she was alarmed by hearing steps
on the gallery. Bidding the little ones re-
main as quiet as possible, the frightened
lady awaited developments. The thieves
for such they proved-after listening at
tbs door and window, betook themselves to
the back yard, appropriated all of Mrs.
Clre's stock of poultry and departed With
out attempting to enter the house. Petty
depredations such as this and relieving we'll
