many years doctors pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly

a constitutional disease, and there

LOCAL NEWS.


Between three and four o'clock
Wednesday morning Mr.. R. A.
Schuerenberg, who resides on South
Market street, was disturbed by a
noise in the rear portion Of his
premises He arose in a half 'awak-
ened condition TO investigate the
cause of the noise, but did not see
anybody. He was tired and sleepy
from having attended picnic in
the woods during the day, and being
accustomed to the noise made by
neighbors' dogs prowling around in
his back yard and fighting over the
possession of the Stops thrown out
from the kitchen, he returned to his
couch to seek repose without extend
ing his investigation very far or max
ing minute search for the burglar.
Two or three hours later, however,
Mr.. Schuerenberg was aroused by
the cook aud informed that the
kitchen and pantry had been burg
larized. Entrance was affected
through the kitchen, and on investiga-
ton a key which mysteriously dis
appeared from the kitchen door
months ago while another woman
was cooking on the place, was found
lying on the kitchen doorsteps. This
key was used in unlocking the door
and in gaining access, and probably
in the hurried fight when Mr..
Schuerenberg got up during the
night was Internationally dropped
on the steps. The thief confined his
foraglng expedition to the commits
sary department and helped him or
herself to lot of butter in the safe,
some potatoes left over from the
picnic, some cream cheese and bot
tie of wine. There was a pitcher of
milk in the safe, and the thief skim
med the cream off of it and left the
rest behind. The butter stolen was
in silver dish, which was found out
on the steps; also two silver spoons
used to scrape the butter out of the
dish. This burglary is in almost
every respect exactly like the
committed at the residence
of Mr.. Albert Werner short time
ago. Every article of provisions
was taken from Mr.. Werner's place
and the family had to send down
town to lay in a fresh supply before
they could eat breakfast. And in
ransacking the drawers of the side
board the thief came across several
pieces of valuable silverware, but
eft them undisturbed and did not
7isit any other part of the house.

On the Wrong Road,

A few days ago a nice looking,
well-dressed young man Unpleasant
address arrived in the city from Gel-
weston and has since been engaged
in canvassing for religious work
entitled "On the Road to Heaven.
He made his headquarters at the
store of E. Pitschmann, for whom
he acted as sub-agent. Directly af-
ter coming to town he got into the
confidence of Uncle George Wilson,
of the Exchange hotel, for small
board bill, BESIDES strikingE,him for
a small loan of one dollar. He also
beat Mrs. Hub Hutchinson out OF
four or five days board and ran a
whiskey bill on credit at A. A.
Woehler's saloon and got on whiz.
His latest exploit was to go to a
store in town and buy a small bill of
goods under false pretense, stating
that he had money on deposit at
Pltsehmann's. Early on Wednesday
