FRIGHTENED CHILDREN.-Yesterday
evening Mrs. G. F. Schneider, who lives
on Cameron street near Alfred, left her
home for a walk, locking the front door
but leaving the vestibule door open.
Three little children named Swami,
who live near by, went into the vesti.
bule when in some way the door be-
came fastened and they were locked in.
they became frightened and raised an
alarm. Several gentlemen ran to the
house to see what was the matter and
tried to quiet the children, but the little
ones still being unable to open the door
became panic stricken when the oldest,
little girl, took of her shoe and with
it smashed the plate glass of the front
door. Through this opening she passed
the other children and then crawled
herself, and running through the house
they all made their exit by the back
door in most demoralized condition.
