The ARDMoREITE has to apollo
gize today for the non-delivery Of
yesterdays paper to a. few resi-
dences in the north part of the
city. The paper was later put in
the postofiee.
1t seems the small boy and dog
were the cause, and it has been an
established sport for some time.
The dog is to attack the pony pro-
vided the latter can't outrun it.
Last night the pony was thrown
violently to the ground by rum
ming over the dog and sustained
serious injuries. The rider was
also thrown and sustained injuries
from which he feels sore. We ad-
NIT the blame rests on both parties
but the ARDMoREITE intends put
ting a stop to its end of it, and re-
quests parents to restrict their chill
dren from indulging in such prac7
tice in the future, which is sure to
result seriously.

Burglary.

Some one entered the residence
of 7. Y. Morgan last night and
took Mr.. Morgan's vest from his
sleeping room, leaving it on the
back steps, where it was found this
morning. His watch was gone but
the chain was left. No other valu-
ables were taken.
