burglary.


About 1:3O yesterday morning Bart
Ebli, whose family resides over the sa-
loon of Vallero d Ebli on Lawrence
street, was awakened by noise. He
secured n revolver and came down stairs
where he found the side door OF the sa-
loon, on which is a night latch, open.
Further examination disclosed that n
hole sufficiently large to spring the lock
had been cut in the door 10 admit OF a
portion OF the hand. The cash register
had been taken from behind the bar
and placed on the floor near the door,
where it was left by the burglar. He
did not have time to open the register, as
he probably heard Mr.. Ebli when he
arose from his bed. Two boxes OF cigars
are missing from case near the bar. 1t
is evident that the burglar, whoever he
may be, was well acquainted with the
premises.

Surprised the Ladies'.

Just as the Ladies of the Maccabees
we're closing up the business of their last
session they became aware that some
thing very unusual was occurring in the
, reception room and outer hall. Muffled
footsteps were heard ascending the
stairs; mysterious whisperings of strange
voices; shadowy forms glided softly
around; doors opened and closed in a
most unaccountable and ghostly manner,
and the poor ladies sat shivering in silent
fear or moaning This house is haunted"
But just as their fright was becoming
unbearable the door of the reception
room was thrown open, and a sight was
presented that banished all fear and
filled their heart with gladness. A ban
quet table, bountifully spread with good
things, met their gaze, while grouped
about the room the Knights of the Mac
cabees stood waiting to welcome them.
Two strangers, Mrs. Sentner and Mrs.
Moody, graced the occasion with their
presence and assistance and thoroughly
enjoyed the bewilderment of the Lady
Bees" who were so astonished that they
forgot to buzz. They were soon seated
around the table, and the gallant
knights, assisted by the two "lady con-
spirators," were waiting upon them in
themost approved style.
The banquet was followed by a short
time of social enjoyment. The Maccabee
ladies deeply appreciate the kind feeling
displayed on this occasion, which they
will not soon forget. A.

Last Saturday morning John M. Alb
rams and his partner, who are working n
lode claim near Peck Flats, Vermillion
district, west Of this city, were injured
by the explosion OF giant powder. 1t
had been their habit to hang it on nail
near the stove in their cabin over the
mine In order to thaw it out. They did
not work during the stormy weather OF
last week, and on the morning named on
going TO the mine found the cabin partly
filled with snow. Before removing the
snow they built fire, which overheated
the powder, exploding It, demolishing
the cabin and injuring Abrams on his
leg and arm. HE partner was blown ou I
