On the other hand, the public is quick and
unerring to detect deception and eharlatanry;
and accordingly. no amount of ''putery" will
force vile nostrum into public esteem and
patronage. Untold sums have been sunk in

Shot at a Burglar.

Mr.. l.. Eisner's residence on North
Flores street has thrice been APP
preached by burglar, who has twice
succeeded in affecting an entrance
and each time through a window of
his children's sleeping room. Each
time he has aroused the children and
been frightened away by their cries.
Last night when the children awoke
they saw him in the room and cried
to their father, who quickly came,
pistol in hand. In the slight delay
of opening the locked door, the bur
glar had time to get out of the win
dow and all Mr.. Eisner had to shoot
at when he got to the window was
the mans retreating form over the
back fence. He fired, but the shot
did not take effect, unfortunately. as
no blood was to be seen this morning.
The children say the burglar was a
white man.
