A POOR BURGLAR.
He Was Not Built just Right for II
Business.

He Was Not Built just Right for His
Business.
The burglar was not bad-looking
man, although his business had bad
look.
He stood by the door of a sleeping
room and peered in.
A faint light was burning and he
could hear the measured breathing of
some one asleep.
Cautiously he crept inside, STOPPING
low, and looked around.
No one there save sleeping woman.
In an instant cloth saturated with
ether was thrown over her face and he
waited one, two, three-ten minutes,
and the stertorous breathing of the
sleeper told him the drug was doing its
work.
With dextrous hand he seized the
jewelry and money lying on the dress
ing case and began quick search in
the drawers of the case.
10000" came voice from the shad-
ows of the room.
Quick as flash the burglar clutched
his silent knife and turned to meet his
victim.
No one was visible.
'Oo-oo," came the voice again and
the foot of the bed.
1t was pretty baby, sleepily holding
up its little hands to him.
He let the knife fall to his side and
stepping over to the crib touched the
child.
1t cooed again softly and held up its
arm for him to take it
The impulse was beyond his control
| and he lifted the baby to his bosom and
| it nestled its soft, white cheek down to
his and put it's white arm about his
neck.
He purred to it, and in moment its
curly head was laid against his face
and it was asleep again.
'Never seen kid like that" he
whispered to himself Most of um is
afraid of strangers" and tenderly he
laid it in the crib.
Then he went back to the dressing
case.
He stood still moment and then
looked furtively over his shoulder to-
ward the crib.
The sleeping face of the child was
turned toward him.
Slowly he replaced on the case all he
had taken from it, hastily snatched
from the woman's face the saturated
cloth, opened a window near the bed,
and quietly slipped downstairs
Once on the street again he looked
up at the house hungrily.
Dang itF' he growled, ''a man that
amt got no more gizzard than I have
ought to git out of the business"
And he disappeared into the shadows
of the night.-N. 0. Times Democrat.

THE NEW "PAPhK.'
quents.

There is q class of publications that
appear from time to time more for spite
work and to crafty someone's desire
for notoriety and of these Salem has
been as fertile as barnyard is for
mushrooms. They are called "papers."
Someone who does Lot get an office, or
someone who wants one is usually the
power behind the throne, and as long
As the money lasts the ''paper" appears.
When the money runs out the publish
er gives few howls of dispair and
abuses the community and the public
for not sheliing out more literally.
Another daily paper is to be started
1t Salem. OF course, it is not propo-
4ition in legitimate sense of the word.
1t is one of those schemes to get some
thing for nothing; to get money out OF
people; to blackmail some political par
ty; to get credit for clothing and free
railroad rides; to sponge meals and
drinks and enable some one to swell
their hatband and call themselves an
editor" 1t does not concern any
legitimate newspaper enterprise and
only needs to be called attention to for
belonging to the general class of conf
ience games.

MINISTERIAL MORALS.

They have received some decidedly
hard slaps at Salem the past year-sev-
eral of them. There is no reason why
there should be anything peculiarly in =
moral in minister. There are simply
black sheep plying that calling as there
are in the legal and medical protest. n
aud iD journalism. M more. Not
bit.
But to say man has been guilty of
conduct unbecoming to a Christian
minister is little rough on the rest of
US. 1t implies that either higher
code of morals should prevail among
Christian ministers or that they are al
lowed liberties denied the rest of man
kind. If the former is the implication
and it should be the true one, then it
speaks i'll of those who lower the tone
# their calling. If the latter horn of
the dilemma is taken, then it speaks
i'll of the profession which above all
others should follow absolute purity of
life.
