Our usually quiet town Is in hum
of excitement over the recent robbery
of the residences of DIR. Hazelton, w.
HI. III. Wheeler and E. p. Pulsipher
last Thursday night. Over 500 was
taken from the trousers pockets of DIR.
Hazelton and Sc from Mr.. Wheeler.
An attempt was made to enter the
pantry window at Pulsipher's but the
noise made by falling tinware awoke
the inmates and frightened the intrud-
ers away. 1t is very evident they were
after the toothsome things of this
world as we'll as the good things, as in
all places visited the pantries were
cleared of everything that could be
easily carried. No clue has yet been
obtained of the burglars.
