ous feet. The owner OF the unrighteOus
feet is also warming his insldes with a
bottle of choice VINE originally intended
for the sacred purpose OF celebrating the
Lords supper by the members OF the
First Baptist church.
These articles were safely locked in an
ante-rOom IN the basement OF the church,
and night before last, while nearly every
BODY was sleigh-r.ding and snow-balling.
some sneak-thiet entered the ante-rOo III
and appropriated them. There Were
other things he might have taken. but this
particular thief chose 10 let them alone
ard carry of only. boots and wine.
The boots we're the property of DR.. Haw-
thorne aud were used By the minister
while baptizing. They were tho very
things for cutting this slushy snow. and
the shrewd thief is, no doubt, congratu-
lating himself on his choice. The rob-
berry was made possible by knocking out
pane in the rear window. This
done. it was an easy matter TO got
on the inside and gather no wine and
boots. IL was good night, too. TO get
away with such booty, as it was not sus-
piciOus circumstance to see even the
toughest characters equipped with boots
and wine.
The theft was discovered by the old
ianitor yesterday morning and reported to
the police.
