publicans hold their County conven-
ton at Miller. There is little inter-
est manifested, and fe~ candidates
have made any efforts SD far to Sc
cure the nominations. Several per.
sons have been talked OF or I'm en-
toned" MS the saying is, by the few
persons who have said anything
about politics, but the only author
lied candidates before the republican
convention. now only five days
away, are those given in the an
nouncpment column of this paper.
In desire to secure some kin OF in
formation for ourreaders the report

da ties, unless we include Judge'G. {.

ton. This looked like an easy mat.

young lady. But all of a sudden she
went back on him. and his agency
seemed as far off as EVER. WELL

80 WITH BURGLAR.
Charles Gregory has an Encounter with
Thief in the Rsilrosd shops
TUESDAY Morning.


Charles Gregory, night fireman Of
the boilers IN the railroad shops, had
an encounter WITH. a burglar early
Tuesday morning
1t is Gregory's duty to keep tramps
out Of the shops and about 2.3O that
morning he heard some one out In the
carpenter shop He called to the man
but received no answer. He then ap-
preached the prOWIer who struck at
him with q club. Gregory threw up
his hand to ward of the blow and re-
ceived a severe brHise on the back Of
the right hand The intE6der then at
tempted to choke him and grabbed at
his throat. at this point Of the strug-
gle Gregory struck him with his Ian
tern, MASKING it over his head. He
then struck the man with his fist,
knocking him down, and the burglar
shouted. Look out bOysT' From this
it is supposed he had confederates and
after getting to his feet he fed in the
darkness Of the shop and made his
escape.
Gregory RenttO the round house and
told what happened and together with
the hOstler and a few other workmen
they made a thorough search for the
man but he could not be found.
Investigation showed that the tool
box had been broken open and num-
Der Of dies had been taken out, but the
thief had been frightened away before
the booty vas secured.
It is thought that the man who had
the tussle with Gregory was watching
for the approach Of anyone so as to
give the alarm while his pals were
the theft.
