Mr.. Vance is a prscticing attorney in

he was much impressed by the hard
work being done by the officers and

by two young ladies attending the

Thompson, from near Erwin. The
latter was asleep. but Miss Berg
was awake when the man entered, al

she did not dare to cry out. The
man went through their grips and
appropriated their valuables. After
about an hour Miss Thompson awoke
and found that her friend had not
slept and asked the cause. Miss
Berg whispered that man was ia
the room and had been there for an
hour or more. The burglar heard
the conversation and lay on the floor
near the door waiting for the ladies'
to go to sleep SO that he might safe

aborad made him sleepy and soon
he was fast asleep. The ladies then
left the room and called Mr.. Johns,
