A peculiar robbery which is puzzling the

when the house of George Gledhill, a

The strange part IS that as far as the

doubtedly $1,000 worth of silverware in
the house.
The robbery was discovered by Mr..
nue. almost opposite. He said he noticed
a light in the house when he passed it
on his way to the BARRIERS, but it never
occurred to him that the Gledhill family
was away until after he returned, a half

He CUTS NO ICE NOW.

Charles Lierow, who says he is in the
ice business, was arraigned before Justice
Potts this morning, on charge or non
support, preferred by his wife, Liiiian, sls
is a very handsome woman and well
dressed. She told Justice Potts that her
husband had not contributed toward her
support for two months and that she had
no money to pay her rent: She told a
long story of neglect on the part of her
husband, saying that during the summer
he would give her about her fifty cents a
day and piece of Ice. She declared that
she could not keep two children on that
sum.
Lierow told a far different story, ac-
cusing his, wife OF refusing TO give nm
meals and keeping him from the house.
You're a liar" loudly exclaimed the
woman.
Lierow also said that his wife neglected
frequently stay away for days. She also
wrote to him that 1t was. none of his
dEn business where she went. He
added further that after his wife had
stop at the house each morning and leave
fifty cents and a piece Of ice in the ice
box for her. 1t was the best he could
do he said, and now there was nothing
in the business.
