WILL A MAN ROB GOD?"
A NORTH DICKINSON RASCAL
COMES NEAR IT.
He Bores into the Corner Stone of a
Church and Steals the Coins De-
posted There-He Leaves Bible
and Discipline.

\ dastardly piece of meanness is re-
ported from the vicinity of the New
Salem church near the north line of
Dickinson county. The church was
built four or five years ago and being
an expensive structure, the corner
stone contained collection of coins,
newspapers of the county, state and
nation, a bible, etc. as is usual in such
cases.
Last Sunday the congregation found
that some wretch had broken the stone
and taken the money and papers, leay-
ing the bible and discipline. The
question of Malachi, "Will Man Rob
God?' is fully answered. The man
that did the deed has done it. The
total amount of money was less than
SO hence it is supposed that the thief
wos exercising his propensity for wick
edness as much as after wealth. He
was considerable enough however to
leave the bible and discipline, fact for
which the congregation is thankful.
