Rumor has it--yes, more than
rumor--that on "Wednesday, CievIe
Presnall was violently taken in
hand by trio OF cowardly boys
whose combined strength was per
haps ten times that OF the little
boy. While he was being abused
the father appeared on the scene
and prevented what might have re-
suited in serious injury. Such
cowardly acts Of violence have be-
come far to frequent. At this rate
parents will be compelled to deal
with such cases Systematically for
the protection of their children
We understand that two of the
perpetrators in this case are from
town and one from our own com
munity. The CLEANERS.

Careless Driver on Kenneth
Pike Causes Them
Some Injury But a
Great Shock,

A reckless driver on Pennsylva-
mia avenue last night, ran down the
Misses Jennie and Margaret Lank,
daughters Of William ]. Lark, and
so badly injured Miss Margaret,
that she had to be assisted to the
home Of William Stearrett, where
she remained until this morning.
The Misses Lark say they at
tempted to get out OF the way OF the
careless driver, who was driving
his horse in gallop. but were un-
successful. Both young women
women were knocked down and the
wheels passed overMiss Margaret's
leg below the knee. The driver OF
the vehicle neither stopped his horse
or looked to see if the young women
had been injured. Unfortunately
for the young women they cannot
identity the reckless driver.

A Thief Makes Use Of a
Farmers Absence.
From Home.

= 1t is not a very nice thing for
a farmer, in fact anybody, to
find on Sunday morning, that
a thief has entered his house
and stolen bis Sunday clothes.
After a hard week's work q fe!-
low l.kes to don his best clothes
on the Sabbath and with his
family go to church. But
thieves do not care about Sun
day worship. The residence of
Alexander Baxter, on the DR..
Black farm, south of New Gas.
lie was broken into on Satur-
day night during the absence
Of the family. Baxter's best
suit Of clothes was taken and
the thief ransacked the house
in search of money. Entrance
was gained by breaking a pane
Of glass in one of the windows
in the dining room and then
removing tile window catch.
The sideboard drawers were ran
sacked but none Of the silver
was taken. The bureau draw
ers in Mr.. Baxter's room were
gone through and contents
scattered about the floor. Some
jewelry and revolver lay on
the bureau but the thief did
not take a fancy for the articles.
From that room he went to tho
others and left everything in a
topsy, turvey state in his quest
for money. That the thief
knew the lay Of the house was
shown in the way he left the
house. lie went to a small
room, removed the screen win
dow and escaped over a side
shed. 1t is the opinion that
the family returned home while
he was in the house and that
he went over the side fence to
avoid detection.
Suspicion rests on a colored
