A GRAPHIC reporter, this morning, called at the law office of Foster and Coleman, and finding MT. H. R. c. Foster in asked him for a news item when he said:
 No, I have no news, but will tell you of 8 matter that is of vast inter- est to great number of people in this city, because it is a source of great displeasure and discomfort to them, and is, of course, not news to anyone. 1 call your attention to it, however, with the hone that be- tween the railroad officials and the city fathers the people may get re- lief On Third avenue and Main street, where everybody from the business part of the city has to pass several times day, there is no cross ing and those who are compelled through necessity to pass have to wade through mud and water several inches deep. This is an imposition upon the public which it should not tolerate much longer, and your paper should aid us in securing a suitable crossing.
 The GRAPHIC refers this matter to the city officials and earnestly urges them in behalf of a suffering com munity to atonce put down a suit able crossing at the intersection Of these thoroughfares.

THE BURGLAR ENoEAvoRs TO CLUB
 MR. E. w. MARTIN.
Ills Thrilling Experience with the
 Midnight Marauder.

MT. E. w. Martin had narrow escape from being beaten into in- sebility and probably death last night.
 He in company with Mrs. $. c. Martin and two other ladies were spending the evening playing cards at the home of Mr. s. c. Martian. About Il o'clock Mr Martin heard a sllghs noise on the front porch and went out to investigate. Not seeing anyone he passed through a side door which led to gallery and closed the door behind him. As soon as his eyes became accustomed to the darkness he saw what he at first supposed to be cat on the man. sard roof of the gallery He stepped farther out on the porch to investi- gate and saw that it was mans head, and that the man was in the act Of jumping down from the roof. When the marauder saw that he was discovered The exclaimed: Hold on there Wray Martin" and rushed at Mr. Martin with heavy club which he carried in his hand. Mir. Martin was unarmed and attempted to open the door to get back in the honse. The wonld-be burglar followed him closely striking at him with his club, but fortunately MT. Martin reached the door and opened it before the man could hit him. He then quickly closed the door and the man made his escape.
 Mir. Martin says that the midnight visitor was white man and was evidently well acquainted with both him and house. The mans tracks around the house were very plainly to be seen this morning where he had been to the window on the first floor endeavoring to effect an entrance.
