A MIDNIGHT VISIT.
House on Washington Street Ran
sacked by Particular Thieves.

\ peculiar burglary was reported to
the police of this city on Saturday
morning, and all day local sleuths were
searching for clues which might lead
to the identity of the burglars. The
case is peculiar In that nothing is miss
ing, although the visitors ransacked
several rooms.
The house entered was that of Mrs.
Augusta Baker. a widow of Samuel
Baker, at 10 Washington tsreet Mrs
Baker Is visiting in Scranton and the
house was in charge of her maid. JOS
eph A. IIoole. bookkeepcr for Il. G.
Robinson, has "A room in the house. but
on Friday night he was away from
home and did not reach his room until
2 o'clock Saturday morning.
The burglars gained an entrance to
the house by springng open doors
IN front and must have gone right
up stairs, for the maid was out in the
kitchen at the rear of the house and
heard no noise on the ground floor. At
one time. it is said, she fancied she
heard steps upstairs. but she was re-
assured by some visitors who were
in the kitchen with her. and gave the
matter no further attention until she
went to her room when she found
that her bureau drawers had been
turned topsy turvy and everything in
her room was displaced, as If some one
had been looking for something in
hurry.
At o'clock. Mr. Hoolc came home.
and when he had lighted up. he
thought at first he had struck rum
mage sale by mistake. The contents
of his bureau drawers. closets, shelves
and everything movcahle in the room
were thrown in confused heap Oh
the floor and mixed up woefully. lie
at once set 10 work to take an inVen-
tory of his possessions, and after all
had been restored to order could dis
cover no losses. 4 little watch on the
bureau was ticking away checrfully in
plain sight and other articles of value
were all left behind. So far as he can
discover, Mr.. Hoolc was not robbed OF
anything bat a considerable amount of
sleep.
The servant was equally fortunate,
although there repcScd i'm the bottom
of her bureau drawer. under the paper
lining the snug little sum of $50 in
paper money. The searchers had
turned the contents of this drawer out
on the floor, hut had misesd the money,
which was not disturbed I'm any way.
What the object of the intruders
could have been can only be surmtsed.
| There was n quantity of silver in the
| house. besides other articles of value.
| and yet not thing was missing. 1t
| was said in Jest yesterday that per-
haps they were the parties who have
been robbinG clotheslines, and who
wprA i'm search of some particular OBJ
| jcct to complete their wardrobes, as
| they had stolen underwear from one
| line and silk stockings from another,
| leaving other articles in easy reach
| untouched.
| Really. it seems as If Carbonate
| thieves are very discriminating. such
| fussiness over details is not to be COM
