tee. Mr.. Arnett is the shoe salesman
in Warren NJ. CrCsby's store and two OF
his sons are in the same business. The
robbers were evidently acquainted with
the house and the habits of the family,
as they chose a time when both Mr..
Arnett and his sons would have a week $
salary on hand, but they didn't find
much Of the money. They went through
all the rooms in the house except that
occupied by the two grown sons, and
would doubtless have tried that had
they not been frightened away They
left burnt matches all over the house,
emptied bureau drawers. searched dress
ers and tore things up generally
Mr.. Arnett nor any of the family We're
aware Of the burglary until six o'clock
Sunday morning, when the disordered
condition of the house showed plainly
THAT a burglary had been committed.
The bedroom occupied by Mr.. and Mrs.
Arnett was entered, and his clothing
carefully searched. Here the robbers
secured the only money taken from the
house. They found about 81 in small
coin in Mr.. Arnett'S trousers pocket,
and overlooked a SIS bin in his purse.

passed by probably because they con-
sidered it too easily identified. A small
revolver was taken from the pocket Of
one of the boys Overceats, and this
COMPLETED the loss. After Mr.. Arnett
discovered the burglary he notified the
police and officers were called to in
vestigate.
When seen at the store this morning
by a State Journal reporter Mr. Arnett
said of the burglary: 1T is a mystery
to me how they managed it without
waking me. I am usually a light sleep
err and rouse at the slightest sound
I slept through it all, as did the rest of
the family except one of the little girls,
who says she was wakened by what she
supposed to be her sister who was sleep

card from friend of his was hand

Mr.. May looked at the card and
1t seemed as though the matters
referred to were rather stale, and
upon closer inspection be learned
that the date of the card was 1877.
He thought at first that the writer
of the card had put up hoax, but
the post mark of the Columbus Of
