called at DR. Knifiin's dental parlors,
the door was found locked and word
was sent to- Dr. Shannon, DR.. Kniflin's
partner, one block away. DR.. Shannon
came and opened the door, and found
the two ladies' as above described. There
were many evidences Of burglary. Chief

Miss Purcell. the young lady boarding
with the. Kniffins, was finally revived,

the night, possibly about 8 q. M, she
was awakened by Kniffin, who was
screaming that there was burglars 10 the
