Rocked Mr.. Tremnin,s uou

ANoCheu uAr lrcHuinS House.
On Tuesday night about 10 o'clock
two mon paused in front. of the resi-
dence of A. L. Tremain, corner of Sew
enth avenue and Sixth street s. W., and
after somewhat protracted conversa-
ton one said to the other: ~ wonder
If you can hit the side of that house
with rock?" The wife of Maj. r. II.
Day, who, with his family, boards with
Mr.. Tremain, heard the remark dis
tinctly, but before she could call the at
tention of any one to it a rock was heard
crashing through glass. Mr.. Tremain
was awakened by the noise and rushed
to the window of his bed chamber to
find that the miscreant had shattered
o street gas lamp. The young men
then passed the corner, paused, threw
clod Of dirt against tho side Of the
house and ran off. Mr.. Tremain got a
good Wow of them and thinks he will
be able to recognize them on sight. 1t
is not necessary to say that he will re-
port their names to the authorities and
see that they are properly punished for
their outrageous conduct.
