SERVANTS SCARED.
Thought They Heard a Man In the
Cellar.
A Successful Sunday School Entertain
ment-Norlh End Notes.

Last evening the servants in Thomas
A. O'Gorman's house on Doyle avenue
got badly scared at the persistent bark
ing of the dog IN the cellar and at other
noises they heard under the apartments
ON the first floor. One of the servants
went across the way snd telephoned 10
the police Of the Second station. Lieu
tenant Murray sent officers Hennessey
and Irwin 10 the O'Gorman residence.
and they made a thorough search OF the
cellar and the otner parts OF the house.
They found no traces OF any intruder,
but did find that the cellar door had been
unboited all the evening. Mr.. and Mrs.
O'Gormau were at the theater while all
the excitement prevailed.
One OF the servants says that q man
called at the house shortly before 8
O'Clock and asked for Dir. O'Gorman, and
she told him thar her employer had
gone to tine theattr. The dog kept up a
persistent growing and those in the
house at the time insist they heard some
Saturday night few months ago man
hid in a cupboard and when the servant
came down stairs with a poker he scared
her so badly that she dropped the poker.
and as II Vas showery night he man
aged to pick his way out without getting
very we, or being any way damaged by
his unsuccessful intrusion. Except that
the cellar door was open. the officers
could find nothing wrong about the prem
ises.
