an operation, but still remained in mis-

A NIGHT ALARM.
Burglars Attempt to Enter the Home OF
II. ID. Foote, Tuesday Night

Burglars Attempt to Enter the Home of
r. ID. Foote, Tuesday Night.
At about eleven o'clock Tuesday
night last, r. D. Foote was disturbed
from slumber'by loud noise from
somewhere in the rear of his house.
Hastily dressing, Mr.. Foote procured
a light and made investigation. On a
back porch stands large goods box
with lid on it. This box had been
moved up against the screen door, and
with the lid raised, formed means
to enable man to mount to level
with the top of the screen, and an eff
fort had evidently been made by pull
ing corner of the screen out a little
way, making small opening, to
insert hooked wire wire behind it,
and thus unfasten the catch which Sc
cured it.
Mr., Foote did not succeed in finding
anything more, but being not altogeth-
er satisfied with hisYsearch. he sum
moned Marshal Williams and Deputy
Marshall Linder. The three gentle
then made thorough search of the
premises, but without satisfactory re-
suit.
Early in the same evening, Mrs.
Foote had fed couple of tramps at the
back door. and it is supposed that
these fellows, having observed the lay
of the land, returned and tried toeffect
an entrance. Probably the box lid fell
down when the man stepped upon it,
and made the noise which frightened
them away.

The other afternoon several gentle
men were overheard discussing ways
by which the general appearance Of
the town might be improved, and
some very good suggestions were
made. One gentleman, referring to the
public square, thought it would be a
good plan to grade it down and pave
it with brick, leaving circular space
in the center to be sown with grass
seed and enclosed in substantial
iron fence. The idea is a good one, and
if carried out, would improve the
looks of the business portion of the
town wonderfully.

A rumor is afoat to the effect that

dent telephone system. We hope to
learn more about this report soon.
