James ID. MacKay, who runs a
bakery on Union street, had quite an
exciting time with three burglars on
Thursday night last.
In the rear of the bakery is a wagon
house where Mr.. MacKay keeps his
delivery wagons. Between II and 12
o'clock he heard noise like the fall
ing of tin cans in the wagon house,
and he at once went out to inyesti-
gate. One of the wagons loaded with
goods ready for Friday delivery had
been broken open and large can lay
on the wagon house floor under the
wagon. He hurried back to the
bakery and after procuring lantern
and gun, returned to the wagon
house, accompanied by David Stout.
The two men made a search of the
premises, and were about to give up
the hunt when they discovered man
crouching along the fence near the
bakery. Mr.. MacKay ordered the
fellow to get up, saying if he did not
he would shoot The fellow obeyed.
pleading not to be shot. While Stout
stood guard over the prisoner, Mac
Kay went in search OF an officer and
the fellow was locked up.
A search was then made around the
premises and two more men (strangers)
who acted in suspicious manner,
were found and put in the lookup.
The prisoners were all given a
hearing on Friday morning before
Squire Lyman and the two strangers
were discharged. The other fellow
was fined $3.50, Mr.. MacKay not de-
string to further prosecute him, upon
his promising to go to work. This
party, whose name is withheld, is a
resident OF this city.

Fire la New Hone.

A fire broke out in New Hope about
four o'clock Fourth of July afternoon,
which resulted in considerable loss of
property. 1t originated by some small
children playing with bonfires in the
lumber yard adjoining the store of
Charles Roberts. Some loose paper
in barrels were ignited and this set fire
to fence, and communicate TO a barn
nearby. This soon was wrapped in
flames, and one-story shed in the
rear of the store was also ON fire. The
intense heat caused the rear end of the
drug store building to take fire, but
this was put out without much loss.
The barn was owned by A. J. Solo
mon estate and was perfect loss. The
one-story meat house in the rear Of
Roberts store was also entirely des-
troyed Some damage was also done
to the store building and to the adjoin-
ing drug store building by the fire.
About as much damage was done by
water as by fire. The residence of
John Kitchin and the rear of Palmer 8
drug store were seriously damaged by
water, and considerable damage was
done to the material in the Ne,0 Hope
Ne,os Office and to the goods in Roberts
store by the water that was uselessly
thrown into the building.
The fire department of this city and
New Hope responded promptly to the
alarm, and did excellent service.

ROBBERiES.

About one o'clock last Monday morn
ing, thieves entered the residences of
Ebert Vert, on Delaware avenue, and
Wesley Case and Andrew Joiner, on
Perry street, and carried off some valu-
ables in each place.
Mr.. Wert's house WAS entered through
the front bay window. The bed room
of Mr.. Wert's father, Joseph II. Vert,
was visited and his vest and pantaloons
carried down stairs, where they were
searched and pocket book, containing
$58, valuable gold watch, safe key,
and other things taken from them.
The pocket book, subsequently, was
thrown away near the corner of Main
street and Delaware avenue.
At the house of Mr.. Case, the thieves
entered through first floor window,
disturbing one of the household who
was sleeping in the room. An alarm
was given and search was made, but
no one was found. ..Afterward they
were heard going out of the house. A
pocket book containing a small sum of
money was found missing in the morn
ing.
At Mr.. Joiner's, the thieves entered
the front door, which was unlocked,
and carried off silver watch. A pack
age of his sons clothing, they had
neatly folded up, was left, for some
reason.
A reward of $50 was at once offered
by the Lambertville Vigilant Society,
and seven tramps were arrested during
the day following on suspicion, but no
evidence was obtained that fixed the
crime upon them.

, Mothers advice is worth more than
the advice Of any other woman to the
daughter who Is perplexed by the prob
lens of physical health and comfort.
There's no need therefore to "write to a
zU0maa," who is a stranger.
There may, however, be need for q
bhysician's advice to supplement the adj
vice of the mother. In such q case the
offer Of free consultation by letter, made
by DIR. Pierce, opens the way to health,
and at the same time avoids the un-
pleasant questionings. the repulsive ex-
aminations and offensive local treatments
which less experienced physicians often
insist on. &
ANY sick or ailing woman is invited to
write to DR.. Pierce, Buffalo, in the strict
est privacy. Each letter is held as a
sacred confidence and its answer is sent
in plain envelope, bearing no printing
upon it.
DO not be n1isled by advertisements
offering medical advice,' which are
published by those who not being ply
sicians are not qualified to give such ad-
vice. Any physician or doctor who has
a legal and professional right to the title
will publicly claim that title. Those
who offer medical advice and invite
you to " write to woman /" do not claim
that the woman is doctor. The "fnedi-
cal advice" of an unprofessional woman,
is Just as dangerous as the medical
advice Z Of an, unprofessional man. In
more than thirty years DR.. Pierce and his
staff Of nearly score Of medical special
lists, have successfully treated over half a
million women. You can write without
fear as without fee to DR.. R. v. Pierce,
Buffalo, N. Y.
