mile from West Chester Village, are much
wrought up over series of robberies that have
occurred there within the last few days The
house OF Mitchell Valentine. real estate dealer
was entered on Thursday night. Mrs stan
ley. who is a guest at the house, was awakened
by noise, and found two men in her room. Mrs
Stanley was wearing handsome pair OF ear
rings. and the burglars. seeing these. demanded
that she hand them over Instead Of doing so
Mrs. Stanley gave shrek that aroused the
household. Mr. Valentine is an old man, but he
got gun and went burglar hunting. The men.
however, succeeded in getting away. They took
with them jewery and other articles valued at
about 50 COO
Three days ago the burglars paid a visit to
house that for fifteen years has had the repu-
tation of being haunted and for that reason has
been without tenant all that time. 1t is the
property Of George W. Stickney a wealthy coal
merchant. There is a standing offer OF rent
free to any who will occupy the house but
no one has been found brave enough to accept it.
The burglars, however, either hadn't heard
about the ghost willing TO take a risk
Of meeting one they broke in the house and
carried off every movable article they could
find, the plunder amounting to several hundred
dollars in value.
On Sunday morning a visit was paid by the
burglars to the house of Matthias Mennthe a
German farmer. They entered Mr.. Mennthe's
bedroom while he asleep, and carried off a
big trunk which stood only six feet from his
bed. This they carried down the road a short
distance and broke it open. There was S4OO in
bills in the trunk. and this the robbers carried
away. Mr.. Mennthe did not miss the trunk until
10 o'clock Sunday morning. IL was after
ward found by the roadside.
Another sufferer is Watson Bovine who has
had two valuable horses stolen from his stable
recently. All the robberies have occurred within
an area of half mile.
