SHE WINGED The BURGLAR.

A Plucky Minneapolis Girl Faithfully
Guards Her Masters House.
MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. il. A plucky
servant girl at the house of A. NJ. Crit
tendan prevented the house from being
robbed. The girl had been left alone in
the house TO take care of a child while
the family were out for the evening.
At about 1920 she was sitting by the
table reading when she heard a peculiar
noise at the rear door, and a moment
later the glass in the upper part Of the
door was broken in and she heard some
n fumbling at the bolt. She ran
quickly upstairs, secured a revolver, and
rushing to the window directly over the
door, pointed the revolver downward
and fired. She heard two men shout,
n of them evidently in pain, and then
a voice below said: John, l am killed.
She waited and Jaw two men, one sup.
porting the other, who was holding his
right arm as if it was hurt, hurrying
away from the house. After watching
them till they passed down the street
the girl ran back down stairs, and later,
when the family arrived home, an in
vestigation showed that the bullet had
done good york, as there was a large
pool of blood on the doorstep.

the most horrible cases that the police
OF this city have ever known has been
discovered by residents of Webster

AT a howell at that number reside Julia
Mahan, aged So, and her husband, John,
q man who it is said has lived from his
wfe's earnings for a long time. Mrs.
Mahan was stricken with paralysis about
four weeks ago, and hes been lying
helpless eve since and deserted. Police
who went to Mrs. Mahan's bedside found
that tho place was infested with raven
Gus rats, and that they swarmed in the
sick woman's bed. The flesh was gnawed
in many places, and the woman had
been for hours helpless to drive away
tho rodents. Mrs. Mahan is diving.

II find that Mrs. Pierce's little girl is
my valentine, she having drawn me,
which / was not sorry for, it easing me
of something more than l must have
given to others. But here I do first OBJ
serve the fashion of drawing notices as
well as names, so that Pierce, who drew
my wife, did draw also 4 motto, and
this girl drew another for me. What
mine was l forgot, but my wife's was,

On valentines for every year
Unfailingly do they appear,
And yet how funny this request
The sender is most fearful lest
You should forget. Yet to his shame
lie never thinks to send his name.
