GOOD HAUL BY ROBBERS.
7. j. Cleary is L,sr of at Least Two
Hundred Dollars,


Sometime between midnight and 5l5
o'clock this morning burglars got into the
Cleary residence, at the corner of White and
Cherry streets, and made a good haul They
entered through cellar window which had
been left open. The articles stolen consisted
Of gold watch and chain valued at Sl75, two
hats, two pairs of cuffs, pair of cuff buttons
aud a collar. All the articles except hat
and cuff buttons belonged to p. j. Clcary.
one of the coats stolen contained mileage
book and time book used in connection
with his Hazleton contract From vest
belonging to Anthony Cleary 81 25 was taken.
There is no clue to the robbers The only
thing thus far learned is that Mrs Parrish. a
neighbor, says she heard noise about the
Cleary house at about 4 o'clock this morning.
The robbers did not visit the upper part of
the house, and it is lucky for john f. Cleary,
the bother, that they didn't, as there was a
wad of $500 within easy reach, Mr.. Cleary
having made his collections yesterday.

LANCASTER, Pa, June 2.-The mutil.
ated body of a child supposed to be be.
tween 7 and s years of age was found in a
remote part of the Colebrook hills Just
across the Lebanon county line, Sunday
afternoon. The body, which was minus
head, hands and feet, was sewed in q sack
which was lying among some rocks in a
lonely wilderness that is rarely frequented
by human beings, and some children on
