Sergeant and Corperars Campaign
Against Burglar.

Took Chances of Bullets and Got

The quiet Of the Caps shore from Cush-
ing's Point on TO Fort Pre5ls was dis
turbed Saturday night about ten o'clock
blythe rattle of musketry and the centre
of the disturbance was the post itself.
1t was pay day at the fort and everything
was going along smoothly until the hour
Just mentioned when the post surgeon,
DIR. Griffith, who WIS about ready to get
into he'd. heard some one at work on one
OF the windows of his quarters. The
doctor went to the window and looking
out discovered q man in his shirt sleeves
trying to raise the window. DR.. Griffith.
though lightly clad at the time, rushed
to the front Of his quarters and called for
the corporal of the guard. The corporal
lost no time In answering the call and
being advised by the doctor of what had
occurred started on an armed reconnais-
sance in search OF the intruder He DON
got on the right trail and joined by the
sergeant of the guard, the two followed
their man down the road leading to the
fort They called out "halt'' several
times but the fugitive needed 1t not and
finally the corporal drew bead on the
fellow and fired two shots He did not
aim to kill but he could have easily done
SO for the corporal is good shot and had
the man at his mercy. His object was to
brighten his man into surrender, but
like the .'old guard he preferred death
to surrender and Kept going despite the
rattle Of shot over his head. The fugitive
proved to be first class Splinter and
finally was lost to sight 1t Is suspected
that the man was pretty well acquainted
with what was going on at Fort Preble
for DIR. Griffith is not only post surgeon
but canteen officer as well and Saturday
being pay day the boys had walked up
and settled for the ice cream, cake and
fruit punch which they HAD reyslled in
during the month just ended, and the
doctor had quite snug sum of money In
his quarters which constituted the team
teen fund" and 1t is-quite likely that this
is what the burglar was looking for.
