LOCAL MATTERS.
AGAIN BURGLARiZED.
Store Of 3. A. Piper Broken Into For
the Second Time.

For the second time, this fall, the
store Of Il. A. Piper on State street
! was broken into. Tuesday night, and
: in a manner which showed that the
Z burglars were not mere boys but men
Of strength and well supplied with the
necessary tools. While the loss was
4 not large, as they secured only about s.
: in small change which was in one OF
the numerous drawers which they
: transacted. yet the damage to the
/. doors is an important item and the
whole affair showed a spirit which can
best be defined as pure cussedness.'
& Entrance w3s made by the side door
SON Court street which leads into the
back room of the store. With a large
sauger several holes were bored through
He uaneI of the door and then with
Z, hill g.. heavy knife an aperture was
amade large enough for a man to pass
sin his arm and turn the key in the
slock. IT must have been a slow JOB
and Il was a bright moonlight night.
Once inside. the burglars found a still
harder task before them To get into the
front store. The door from the back
room was lined with sheets of gal
vanized iron and was fastened from
the inside by a rock maple bar. with
the aid of nippers and a chisel large
section of the iron was cut and PRED
hiD, and then the auger was used as OF
tn. outside door. When the hole had
been made they found that there was
no KEY in the door to turn. From TINS
hoI. they were unable to remove tac
bar across the door, so another hoie
was made a foot higher ana directly IN
line with the bar. BY boring repeated
Iv through this heavy maple bar it was
finally broken and the door forced
omen. All this work showed patience
and determination and seems 100
heavy and skillful to have been done
by boys The auger made an men
hole and was very sharp.
In the front store little was DIS
turbed except the drawers behlnd the
counters which were ransacked ana
left opened. In one they secured about
s. in dimes. nickels and one-ceht
nieces. A few cigars and some candy
were also taken. Mr.. Piper is confident
That the break was made by the same
p2r.ies who robbed him during the
summer. AT that time entrance was
made through a back window ana the
door between the two rooms was nos
fastened. More goods were faKen

ina Many Converts.

There is commotion at Sarum and
the sleepy old city is being reused
out of it's somnolency by the aggres-
siveness Of the Mormonistic propa-
ganda, says the London News. The
agents of the Latter Day Saints
cult have stormed the citadel OF
Episcopacy and captured some of the
pillars of the Church and lights Of
the Dissenting churches. These dar-
ing raiders have laved their captives
in the classic waters of the Avon at
midnight in the chilly months of De-
cember and January Strange scenes
have been enacted under the stars
and in semi secrecy. There is vail
ing in many homes, and fulminations
from pulpits Episcopal and Noncon-
formist. On Wednesday evening last
the rector of Fisherton sacrificed the
Mormon doctrines and pilloried the
emissaries. Two Of the Mormon eld-
ers and one of their converts were
present, but sat unmoved. On the
authority Of the editor of the Sails
bury Times the evil is spreading, and
there are at least two thousand elders
from Salt Lake City in this country
actively engaged in DJJselytlzing
work.

Living at the mouth of Sulphur, a

county, is a family named Clifford, the
mother of which is blind and 70
years of age. Although she has been
totally blind for thirty years she has
done all of her own homework, and is
an especially capable cook She does
all of her sewing, threading needles
unaided. She can tell the time OF
day by mark on the window frame
from the heat of the sun on her hand.
She has two pets, of which she is
very fond, a black and a white cat,
and, although they are the same size,
she can tell them apart by touching
them. Her husband, 80 years of age,
Is very feeble, and requires much at.
tention at the hands of his wife. In
days gone by Wash Clifford used to
annually appear at West Union with
gourds containing rattlesnakes, which
