THEY SCOT a@.
. ROBBERY At MARTINS FERRY, SUNDAY
NIGHT
Tbs Man Who Assaulted the Girls on the Unior
Bridge Held to GOurt-Whssling @lOrsd
Men in fronbls.

Late Sunday night the residence OF
7. IT. Hanes, on South Fourth street,
Martins Ferry. was entered by thieves,
who succeeded in getting in the neigh
borhood OF 500 in cash, out OF pocket
book that was locked up in drawer.
The pocketbook also contained valuable
papers, but nothing WINS taken but the
cash. The discovery was made by Mr..
Haues' son, Lyman, who returned home
before his parents, they having stopped
after church with friends. he found,
upon retiring to his room up stairs, the
contents Of the bureau drawers and
other articles were scattered around the
rooms. and he was just IN the act
OF making an examination OF the
PREMISES when bis parents returned and
they Joined Ia the search, discovering
the loss of the money as above noted.
II IS supposed that the thief got upon
the porch roof and entered by the up-
stairs window. 1t was very bold az
fair, as the house and hallway was
lighted up as light as day, the electric
lights all being turned on during the
absence OF the family. There is no'clue
to the party who committed the rob-
berry.

and JuIC.,- - nag
pole, while not little damage was done
about town TO roofs, chimneys, and
trees and shrubbery. A reading OF the
government rain guage by Mr.. Schnepf
at half.past ten o'clock showed that 2. 10
inches of water had fallen up TO that
time, and by midnight this had been In
creased TO $50 inches. The barometer
was falling very slowly at eleven
O'Clock, with the indication that 90
inches, even, would be about the lowest
notch. This is unusually low for Wheel
ing, and indicates great deal OF rain
and wind.
During the evening water ran into
the cellar Of the Evening NelgS build
ing, presumably from defective city
sewer, and damaged q number OF rolls
Of printing paper, entailing considera-
Bile loss. A force OF men were put TO
moving the paper, as soon as the pres
ence OF the water was discovered. The
rain came through the roofs of num-
Der of houses about town, but no seri-
Gus loss resulted in any one instance,
as far as could be ascertained last
night.
The rain was general one, extend
ing from Oakland, Md, to above Pitts
burg, and over large amount OF terri
tory in Ohio, West Virginia and Penn
sylvania, and the benefit to the growing
crops was very large. Although 1t
came too late to benefit the corn much,
IL will still do much good to that crop,
and other agricultural products will
also be improved, but by far the great
est good will be in furnishing an abund-
ant supply of water, starting
up wells and springs and
small streams which have
been dry for month or more. The
river viii undoubtedly show the effects
Of the rain in day or two, while the
small streams will likely run out this
morning, all over this section. No very
marked rise is expected, however, as a
great amount Of water was absorbed by
the dry earth, as fast as it fell.
In the city much good was accom-
plished through the flushing OF cutters
and the washing out OF sewers, and the
general effect upan the health OF the
community will be beneficial.
At one o'clock this morning the rain
was coming down as hard as ever, and
the wind was blowing almost gale
from the north. What little water
there was in the river was dashed into
foam by the strong wind, which was
whistling through the bridges at live
" rate, being audible as Tar south as
the creek. The marks at the landing
at the hour named showed eleven
inches and rising, raise Of four inches
for the day. The creek was running
out very moderately, but the size Of the
stream will be very materially aug
mented this morning.
Reports from about the city showed a
number of cellars had been invaded by
the water, and some damage done in
the business district.

Willing To Let It 20.

TIE combination OF wind and rain
made a very dlsagreeable night last
evening to those who were compelled TO
be upon the streets. A reporter was
going down Market street about nine
o'clock, and be met an old gentleman
upon whom It seemed that the nastiness
of the weather made no impression.
Just as the newspaper man was passing
the party mentioned, heavy gust OF
wind came around the corner and
in its fight took with 1t the
old party's straw hat and
left his gray locks uncovered to the
heavily falling rain. = He stood looking
at his moving hat sweetly and blandly
and when the reporter started to re-
cover the lost headgear he called:
That's all right, let It CO." The hat
was captured and restored to It's former
resting place.

accomplishing his purpose by the
screams of herself and the as

tanned the men until the police arrived.
