Bold Robbery.

On last Saturday night, shortly before
midnight, the old Johnson': Homestead,
which is now occupied by Albert John
son and family, his mother and aunt,
was entered by three masked man, who
took possession Of both people and
premises. One Of the gang took Albert
in charge, and with gun pointed un.
comfortably close, considering its load
ed condition, he wisely looked without
saying anything. Another Of the rascals
stood guard over the women folks, while
the third went through everything.
The going through everything includes
not only looking into drawers and ex-
amining contents, but the undoing OF
ladies' stockings from that of slippered
condition, in which they are often ad-
justed by. people, to see II they contain
ed any money or other valuables. The
report is that the different articles OF
furniture, containing papers or clothing,
were spread in every direction. These
midnight msrsuders were in no hurry.
They took time to strip the bed clothing
off the beds and ripped the bed.ticks
open in search for plunder. They sue
ceeded in securing about $50 in money,
and it is probable that they may also 20.

informed that the suspected parties are

is had, the charging of the crime on sus-
pected parties would not be just. Let

In the News. HERALD OF last week
something was said of the attractions
which would be found at the Highland
County Fair OF 1889. In that list every
attraction was not mentioned, nor do
we know that all will be mentioned in
this. But in addition to what has already
been named the fine and interesting
painting of the Battle Of Gettysburg will
be on exhibition. This scene on canvas
has perhaps received more attention and
praise than any picture of its kind.
Those who have had the privilege OF
looking at the attractive picture never
weary of beholding 1t. There will also
be stereoscopic views Of some OF the
exciting scenes which took place at
Johnstown, Pennsylvania, during the
destruction Of that city. But there will
be substantial attraction in the dining
hall when Jos. Gaskill rings the
dinner bell. It 10 guarantee enough for
q good square meal whom it is said that
Mr.. Gaskill has charge Of the culinary
department. This fact is so we'll known
that it hardly needs repeating. We will
give list Of the trotting and pacing
races in our next issue. Meanwhile
those who have stock or other articles
to exhibit should at once call on the
Secretary, Mr.. John s. Jolly, at his
Office in the Strauss Building, and avoid
the rush which always comes as the
time for entering articles draws to a
close. 1T will also be noticed that the
W. O. T. US have secured the ice cream
privileges. It would simply be reflect
ion on the integrity and enterprise Of
our ladies to suspect anything but first
class management and supply.
