responsibility. together with a privil-
eye. such as disciples did not have if-
ty years ago. With all the burdens OF
the life Of the present day resting upon
us. with an the difficulties which con-

life. with all the sin and shame OF
great cities. OF which ! am sure we are
not often too conscious, with all the
spirit Of greed which perhaps is the
master evil of the day with all that
seems to be discouraging and hopeless
as We face the daily conflict Of good
and bad. there never was so great an
age in which to live and never so won
derful a program as the one which lies
before the church OF Jesus at the open

to be men who see the facts. who are
not afraid OF the conflict, who do not
hold our places through fear OF any
living man. who are not afraid to put
the life Of Jesus to the test anywhere,
and who. in pulpit or In pew realize
that the church and the ministry Of to-
day do not mean anything unless they
mean the knowledge Of opportunities
and the use Of power to make possible
the kingdom OF God in the world.
That is what we are here for. May
God help ms to realize the true mean

Special to Times-Republican.

Gearing, June S.-A great deal of eX-
citement was caused at this place this
morning about O'clock by a report that
burglars had attempted to- loot the gen
eral store OF B. A Armstrong & Son. BY
fortunate circumstance the work OF |
the thieves was nipped in the bud, but
ceeded in blowing open the safe with
nitro-glycerine.
James Chance, the liveryman at this
place, and James AIeekins, an employe
Of Chance, are responsible for the work
of the robbers not being more success
full. The men happened to be astir at
the time the thieves were at work, and
encountered the guard who had been
left on watch outside the store. Chance
called to the man. asking him what he
was doing, and was replied with an
oath. in which he was informed that he
would be shot If he advanced another
step. Chance wasn't to be bluffed, how
ever. and made a lunge for the man.
The burglar shot but Chance yelled to
him to shoot again as he didn't HIT him.
The robber did shoot second time, but
the darkness prevented good aim, althoi
Chance wasn't twelve feet distant when
the second ball whizzed by his ears.
After shooting the second time Chance
was so close to the man that he took to
his heels, and escaped in the darkness.
The noise of the shooting had aroused
other men in the vicinity and attention
was at once directed to the Armstrong
cfN~ f,.r.v h t,,t a tt-1S
found. A hasty examination proved
that the other burglars hadalso escaped,
having evidently been frightened by the
shooting and the consequent warning
that their work had been discovered.
So hasty was their exit from the store
that they left all their tools, which
were crude affairs and give rise to the
surnlise that they We're not the best
grade of professional crooks. Others
who We're attracted BY the noise Of the
shooting saw the burglars who were OPP
Grating In the store leave by a rear
way. They We're three in number and
went south. Mr.. Armstrong and Burt
Pollock gave chase in the direction they
We're seen to go. and from the night
watch at Colo We're informed thathe had
seen four men shortly before they ar
rived heading for the east on the North
western road. Nothing was secured
from either the safe or the store The
safe was wrecked quite badly. in that
the door was blown off. The inner doors,
z however, were not touched. owing to The
lack of time on the part of the robbers.
The fact of the robbery has recalled a
little incident that occurred on Thurs
day night when several young men of
Gearing, who We're on the streets late,
came ACROSS man dressed in women 5
clothes, who was examining the Burt
Pollock store. just across tne street from
Armstrong The man took to his
heels when discovered. and but little was
thought of the incident.
