considerations that add $500 or $500

and with it struck the intruder over
the head, when he dsrted out OF q
window onto the tin roof and de-
scending rapidly soon disappeared.
He left his shoes--a very large pair
behind. Nothing In the house was
disturbed. The would-be robber
entered the house by placing aladder
against the roof of the porch and as
cending It, raised a window, when
access was easy. A dim light was
burning in Mr.. Olvey's room and he
thinks he could identify the intruder
