 Burglars broke into the post office and store of w.. P. Fuller last Thurs day night, blew open the safe: and took about $2OO worth of stamps, and probably between $25 and $50 in change. The parties also took "a horse and carriage from Gilbert Chapmai, in North Somers, with which to effect their escape. The horse was found mile or more from home shivering with the cold. the carriage injured, the whip worn, . few postage stamps in the bottom of the carriage. Blood was found near the safe and q hand kerchief saturated with it. near tha store outside. No further clew is traced as yet of the guilty ones. .

When the hostler of! the stable where the horse had been left many, times be- fore, was informed of the loss. he said he had seen the team pass up the hill in the direction of the quarry. He knew the horse, but did not know the driver, who was coloreas lad with spectacles. Having this clSw1 he was traced past Mir. Bugbee's. near North Somers, and finally by the Battle street road in town to Staf. ford Springs. People seeing and knowing the horse wondered if Mir. Perry had employed a coon recently to drive for him. When found the| horse did not seem injured.

Clay om a Sandy Knoll.
 The little half civilized children of Zunf so aroused our curiosity that we drove through forty miles of sand and sagebrush, from the railroad at Fort W'ifgate, to pay them a visit. As the Indians do not provide for travellers we took our hotel with us-tents, beds and feod -and- camped just outside their village The village looks like huge beehive made Of clay and stuck fast to the top of 8 sandy. knoll. The hive is filled with . mass of cells-3O0 single rooms. placed side by side and piled in rows one on top of another
 Tn each of these rooms lives Zuni family. There are no inside stairways leading from story to story, but If the boys and girls living in one row wish to pay. a visit to house above them they must go outdoors and climb g lad der On the slope. between the village and the. Zuni river are 3. plumber of small vegetable gardens: each one in- closed by mud wall. Zuhi has no inns. no shops. no saloons. not even proper streets. but only narrow alleys that thread their way, through the strange: town. As we walked through .the village all the world came out to see ps. Girls. and. boys clustered on the roofs or sat on the .Ovens-queer little cones of mud which seem to grow up out, of the house tops.while fa- thers. mothers and babies peered out from dark doofways to stare at the vfsitors.I When we had finished our teuE of ithe roafs. and alleys we were hospitably invited indoors: Even there the children followed us. and as we glahced up zat a hole. in the ceiling which served as window a girls laughing face filled the opening. We must. have. looked strange enough in our hats and gloves and long skirts Maria Brace kimbnlf in St Nicholas.

 The football game at Williamntic Saturday between the Connecticut Agricultural college team and the Rhode Island Agricultural college team resulted in a tie of 10 to 10. The game was called at 3 o'clock and it took two hours to play two 25- minute halves. Tyler, the Rhode Island aiAan who refereed the second half, penalized the Connecticut team fully 100 yards, and. in one instance. put his team over the goal line on a five-yard penalty, but the Connecticut boys wouldn't stand for that. After 6 long controversy they were put with in three yards of the goal line and in three tries they succeeded in scoring a touchdown, but failed to kick the goal. Connecticut scored it's 10 ih the early part of the first half: A goal was kicked from the field in four minutes and ten seconds from the opening of the game. The first half ended with 8 score of 10 to 0 in favor of Connecticut. Tyler took charge of the second half and it was scrim- mage all the way through. The O. 40. boys were loaded with penalties. Their first touchdown was fairly won and the second was . gift by TyleHs and the game ended in tie of 10 tp, 10, it being dark before time was, called. The lineup was as follows:
