A BURGLARS WORK.
The Safe in the Railroad Tieket-Office
Marysville Rifed.

The Safe in the Railroad Ticket Office in
Marysville Rifed.
EVANSVILLE, Feb. 9. - Yesterday be-
tween 1880 O'Clock in the forenoon and 4
o'clock in the afternoon the railroad ticket
office was entered and $3.50 taken. The
thief unlocked the outside and inside office
doors and turned the combination on the
safe. The burglar-box had not been locked
The thief opened it and took about $780,
leaving $3.50 check, $50 wrapped in paper
and some small coins. There were no marks
of violence, and the work was evidently
done by man familiar with the surround
ings. Agent Baird left the office at 1890
o'clock and did not return until o'clock
He found the safe-dOor open and the money
gone, but everything else in good order.
All the other employees went to Woodland
on an excursion. Baird says it is his per-
sonal loss, as he should have locked the
burGlar-box. Much mystery surrounds the
case and he and the police have no idea
who the culprit is. Baird has been agent
here for twenty years, and during that time
the safe has been tapped three times, but
unsuccessfuly. About one year ago the
office was entered and fine revolver taken,
but nothing else was disturbed.
Marysville has been overrun with swim
ders, burglars and murderers since the
opening of the recent citrus fair. Nearly
all the work is done by travelling men.
Only two captures have been made-one
for burglary and one for robbery. The
cGlprits were sent to tile State Prison for six
years each.

name was Benjamin Brown, and she was
engaged to be married to him.
When President Lincoln called for 75.-
900 volunteers Benjamin concluded that
he was a patriot, and that it was his duty
to enlist For the time being he forgot
pretty Mary Dewey-at least he prefer ed
being a soldier to staying at home and
getting married. He enlisted in the
Twenty-frst Ohio regiment, which was
then under orders to proceed to the seat
of war.
But Mary couldn't bear to be separated
from her lover. And yet separation
seemed inevitable, Finally she thought
of way to satisfy her hearts desire. She
cut off her hair, attired herself ina suit
of her brothers clothes and presented
herself for enlistment at a recruiting Of
flee in Cleveland. She was accepted I'M
der the name of Charles E. Dewey and
was assigned to the company of which
Benjamin was a member.
Side by side in many engagements Ben
jamin and Mary fought, and they seem

disease and the bullets of the enemy
until the battle of Spottsylvania Court
House was begun. In that engagement
Mary received gun shot wound in one
of her limbs. She was taken 10 the hos
pital; and was nursed by Benjamin with
loyer-like devotion. She recovered and
again joined her company. She and
Benjamin fought through the entire war
without further mishap, and at its close
they were married and settled down in
happy little home of their own.
A few years ago Benjamin died and
