BURGLAR CAUGHT IN BEAR TRAP.

Alabama Merchant Hits Upon spen-
did Scheme to Capture Thief.
Sam Lacey, who runs q supply store
at Powderly, Ala, near Birmingham,
caught negro burglar in a bear
trap" and he is now in the Jefferson
county jail with that charge docketed
against him. Lacey's store has been
burglariZed several times of late, and
no clew could be found as to who was
the thief, and he set an old bear trap,
long out of use, to catch the thief on
the stairway leading from the first to
the second floor Of his store, covering
it with an old sack to hide it,
About o'clock in the morning Ollie
Gray, colored, climbed a telephone
pole just outside of the store and en-
tered the store from the second story.
After helping himself to what he
wanted he left the store and started
down the steps cautiously and stepped
right into the middle OF the steel bear
trap, which closed its large iron fangs
on his leg, and held him fast until Mr..
Lacy came up to open up, which was
an hour afterwards. The prisoner had
scufried hard to get away, but did not
cry out, and it took three mon TO re-
lease him from the trap, so strong
were the springs which held him.

Chinese Record Of Flood.

According to Chinese annals the
earth. in consequence of the extrems
wickedness of its inhabitants, was de-
stroyed by deluge in the reign of
Yaou, b. c. 1857. This date nearly
corresponds with that at which, ac,
cording to our chronology, the Noah
clan deluge took place, and many have
come to the conclusion that 1t is
identical with the deluge referred to
in the Hebrew Scriptures.
