More Thieyiuq

Sunday evening after Mr.. Milne, the
grocer, and his family had gone to
church, some one bent on getting
something for nothing" gained en-
trance to the house and proceeded to
pillage every drawer and every nook
where there was possibility OF Sc.
curing anything Of value. Luckily
Mr.. Milne had his bank book contain.
ing most of his pocket money with
him, and the would be robbers secur.
ed but little money. They stole a
silver watch and a charm to the value
of about $1,000. Upon arriving home,
Mr.. Milne found that the robbers had
secured the key to his grocery store,
so he Immediately came up town, and
In company with the marshal. went to
the store. But the robbers had gone.
They secured about $500 in money
from the store and few articles Of
small Value. They were doubtless
disappointed in the result of their
attempt. No clue as yet has been
developed. The robbers still hold
the key to the store and if there are
any other locks in the city which it
will turn, there may be other at
tempts at robbery.

WIS at" Last spring when he made
the tax levy for his township he hg-
ured on basis of 10 mills. This ha-
sis would give him, as be thought,
sll9 for township purposes. Imagine
his surprise, when his neghbors began
to complain on the size OF their taxes,
to lind that instead of raising slI9
the l3-mill basis would bring him ten
times that amount or sll9O. He had
erred In his calculation by placing
the decimal point at the wrong place.
A friend made the calculation also
and made the same error. 1t is likely
that special meeting Of the Board
OF Commissioners will be called 10
abate part Of the taxes.
