Peter Carpenter Dead.

Peter Carpenter, a well-known resi-
dent of McMechen street, died yester-
day morning, shortly after s o'clock.
Mr.. Carpenter was in the 3Sth year of
his age, and for the past year had
been under the doctors care, but his
death was none the less unexpected,
and is widely regretted. He was steel
worker by trade
He arose at the usual hour yester-
day morning, and seemed in about the
same health as usual. He sat down
with the family to breakfast, and while
at the table his head fell forward The
other members rushed to his assist
ance, but life was already extinct. Heart
disease is supposed to have been the
cause of death.
The funeral will occur this after
noon at o'clock, and the interment
will take place at McMechen. Rev. Mr..

Benwood was visited by another gang
of thieves early yesterday morning, for
the first time in several months, and
three houses were entered. The parties
composing this gang are unknown SO
far. but yesterday the police were
working on the case. The first house
they attempted to enter was that of
Hon. Josiah St. Clair, but they failed
to gain an entrance, and contented
themselves with drinking quantity of
milk. From here 1t is supposed they
went to the home of Mrs. Isaac Tomlin-
son. on Water street, where they gained
entrance to the summer kitchen, in
which was stored large quantity of
supplies. They pulled these out, and
had feast. leaving the remains strewn
there they went to the home of Will
lam Leach, farther up Water street.
On their way up the alley they picked
up an iron, about a foot long, and
wedge shaped, This they used to pry
open the shutters and windows, and in
doing so, broke off about an inch of
it. When they departed. they dropped
his on the ground, and 1t was found
there by Mr.. Leach.
Having thus gained an entrance
through a window at the back c. the
mouse, they proceeded to take every
small article upon which they could
lay their hands. Among the articles
secured was a considerable quantity Of
jewelry. One small lady's gold watch
bore the monogram a.. X" while one
Of the rings had the~ initials ''W. L."
upon it. They also took a blue serge
coat and vest, hat and pocketbook
containing about $3.50. The articles Ia
ken were valued at about $500.
1t will be remembered that several
months ago gang of thieves operated
with some success in this vicinity, and
had quarters in cave back OF town,
but were finally cleaned out by the po-
lice.
