BRACE OF BOLD BURGLARS.

Arrested and the Stolen Goods Found in
Their Possession.
The following account of robbery
which recently occurred on the line of
the o. r. R. is taken from the New
Matamoras Herald:
"Thieves broke into the station
house at Ravens Rock, on the o. r. R..
Friday night and carried away about
$50 worth of goods, most of which be-
longed to the Adams Express Company.
They also took the agents clothing
from trunk in the station. The
same parties broke into Isaac Barn
hart's little grocery store and COM
pletely rifed it of almost every thing it
contained. The goods were taken
away in skiff by two men, who it is
thought came down from Sistersville or
some point below that pace. 1t is
hoped the railroad authorities vii,
succeed in running these rascals down.
Mr.. Barnhart's loss is quite heavy, as
he is poor man, and the thieves got
about everything hls grocery con-
tained."
The matter was kept quiet for sew
eral days and Detective Mehen of the
o. R. r. went to work on the case the
day after it occurred. He got clue
and followed, it and landed his men,
He kept on the trail until Wednes'
day evening when he walked into a
shanty boat that had been beached al
Long Reach. There sat his two mer
with the stolen goods right in front oi
them on the table. Summoning
assistance he secured the men and the
goods and turned them over to the
Peasants countp officers.

About eight o'clock Friday evening
Mr.. Francis Archer met with an acci-
dent at Donnellv's saloon and restaur-
ant on Front street that may possibly
result in his death. He was some what
under the influence of liquor at the
time, and it is supposed became con-
fused and walked up the back stair
way and Immediately fell from top to
bottom. He alighted on his head and
was rendered unconscious.
DR.. Oscar Lambert was called to at
tend him and upon examination found
that Archer was dangerously injured
about the head and probabl sustained
a fracture of the skull. The Injured
man was removed to Hines hotel, on
the corner of Third and Ohio streets,
where he has lodgings. Mr.. Archer
came here from Cald well and has been
working as a common laborer. The
outcome of his injuries cannot be pre-
dicted.
