Our town has population of about
275 and out of this number there
were four deaths during the past
year, two aged persons and two in
fants. The town has been unusual
ly healty, for which we should feel
thankful.
Constable Napp and wife spent Il
day or two in Sunbury last week.
As II new year resolution, how
would it do for some of the gossi-
pers and backbitcrs who traffic on
morality of their neighbors, to turn
their magnifying glasses on their
own sweet character. A little cleans

beneficial TO them and the commun-

From the many unusual state
ments that are going the rounds in
regard to the over plentifulness of
birds and certain wild animals, ma
tural supposition would be that the
game laws were being more fully OBJ
served than formerly, were it not for
the fact that the ones which are most
plentiful are the ones which are the
most destructive. In many sections
of the country bears have been a
nuisance and dread to farmers, in
others wolves have become so nu-
merous as to be source of terror to
the natives. In California and parts
of Pennsylvania rabbits have been
declared n positive and constantly
increasing and damaging nuisance,
and the same complaint is made in
regard to crows in Maine.

A DARING ROBBERY.
The Money Order Department of the Indian
apolis Postoffce Cleaned Out by
Slick Scheme-A Coincidence.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Dec. 31.-A dar-
ing and successful robbery occurred in
the money order department of the In
dianapolis posteffice at 1880 to-day
Mr.. johnson is chief of the money order
department. His assistants, c.. W. By
field and O.. Keely, had gone to dinner,
leaving Johnson alone for about half an
hour. Scarcely had Assistant Byfeld
left before stranger appeared at the
window and said gentleman in his
buggy desired Johnson to come out to see
him. johnson opened the window and
saw man sitting in a buggy, to
whom he called that it was
impossible to come out. The
stranger replied urging him to come
stating that his business was private and
he was lame. Mr.. johnson is also seere-
tary for local building and loan asso-
citation, and thinking the man had bust
ness referring the association, went out
on the sidewalk, leaving the money that
had been taken in for money orders issued
during the morning lying on the counter
behind the glass partition. The man in
the buggy began talking about real eS-
tate, and was quickly informed that
johnson had none for sale. There hap
pened to be real estate agent in the city
of the same name, and Johnson directed
the stranger to his office. johnson had
been absent scarcely more than two
minutes, but Immediately he re-entered
the office he discovered the pile of money
gone. The confederate who inveigled him
outside had quickly slipped into the Office
from the lobby through the door and
broken the spring lock and filled his
pockets with greenbacks, not daring to
touch the silver. The funds in the safe
were not molested. The thieves secured
about $500. 1t Will require two or three
hours to discover the exact amount. The
police were furnished the description of
the thieveslwithin fifteen minutes and are
now securing the city for them. The
robbery causes good deal of excitement.
Eight years ago the Central Bank of this
city was robbed of several thousand dol
the same manner.
THE OFFICERS ALL AT SEA.
INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Dec. 3l.-At
late hour tonight the adroit thieves had
not been approached aud it is thought
the police are at sea, although the Off
GERS were advised of the robbery within
a few minutes after it occurred.
It was O'Clock before
discovered that the confederate who sat
in the buggy had returned the rig TO the
livery stable at o clock p. m. stating as
he paid for it that he would take it again
tomorrow, then leieurely walking away
exhibiting no signs of lameness. A
peculiar incident in connection with the
robbery is the fact that one
of Mr. johnson S assistants returned from
dinner and saw the thief coolly picking
up the money. A clerk was in the rear
and witnessed the theft through CLASP
partition He saws he supposed the me;
was special agent of the postofhce A

lay on slab. He seemed TO breathe
easier after getting safely through the
crowd. The only sign of emotion when
brought before the corpse was sweat
trinkling down his face. He stood on
the foot OF the slab looking at the severed
legs and body and head. Part of the
time he kept his eyes downcast, and once
or twice he turned his head partly away
as if to avoid the sight. In replying TO
questions, he stated that the corpse was
that of Antonio SchiIling, that he had
killed the man and had cut off the legs.
He was then driven to the Central
police station, and few hours later was
taken to the county prison.
Late this afternoon Chief Wood gave
to the newspapers copy of the con-
fession made by Schroop in which the
latter says he killed Schilling abont 5
o. clock in the morning of Christmas day
He says he arose from bed at thai hour
and went to the kitchen to get some food
for his wife who was sick. On looking IN
the cupboard he found nothing there,
and returning to Schilling who was in the
room he accused him of eating what had
been left. Schilling deried eating the
food, and Schroop becoming angered
knocked him down and
BEAT HIM TO DEATH
with a heavy piece of wood. He left the
body lay i'll the kitchen until 6 p.
when he cut off the legs and threw the
body and severed legs into the cellar.
Next morning about 6 O'Clock he had
hitehed up his horse and wagon, and
having placed the dismembered body III
two bags, he loaded the bags into the
wagon and drove to the park and placed
found later on the same day by some
boys who were playing at the place.
Mrs Schroop, the wife of the confessed
murderer, was this afternoon removed to
the aims house. She is completely pros
trated by the shock, and in addition IS
suffering from the effects of cancer. She
win be kept under police surveillance
while undergoing medical treatment at

OFFICERS D1REL1cT i.


Special to the Gazette.
GALVESTON, TEX, Dec. 51.-Mayor
Fulton S effort to exhonerate his admin :
istration from the implied responsibility
for the recent homicide is exciting good
deal of adverse criticism. A prominent
gentlemen in speaking of Mayor Fulton s
card said: His honor must have very
treacherous memory, else he would not
deliberately write that the killing of
Crawford was the first instance in which
human being had lost his life at the
hands of policeman, either on or off
duty under his administration, covering
eight years. The mayor has certainly
forgotten the man who was literally kicked
to death by a policeman. He must have
forgotten the man who was shot by
policeman and died from the effects of
the wound in the hospital, and he must
have forgotten the case of another man
who was dubbed so severely. If the
records are correct Mayor Fulton had
better correct the mistake of his official
diary and make it the fourth instead of
the first under his pious administration
Another gentleman of equal pTomin-
enee, in speaking of the commercial
circles commenting upon Mayor Fulton s
Communication, said: You eau read
between the lines that in his
conscience he feels that the public
is right in its censure. You can read
between the lines that his own conscience
orings the terrible deed closer to him
than he would haveit. Public sentiment
says that the mayor and chief of police
have been direlict in their duty to the
public in that they have not been watch
full of the character of men who have
been entrusted with the peace of the
