ed that Ed Wilkinson, pail carrier
Of this city, has come to the conclu-
sion that all people are not what they
seem to be. 1t has accidentally leaked
out that he was harboring a burglar
in his own house a few nights ago,
and as result someone is poorer to the
extent of about s25. Wilkinson has
made 1t a business to rent rooms In
his private dwelling. One of his rooms
has been occupied by person who Is
employed at nights and sleeps days.
Last Friday nice appearing fellow,
but stranger, put in all appearance
at the Wilkinson home and inquired
for rooms. AS all of the rooms in the
house were full, he was informed that
unless arrangements could be made
with the night workman for his room
that it would be impossible to accom-
MEDIATE him., Wilkinson finally made
arrangements with his first roomer to
allow the stranger to occupy the room
at night while the other was absent.
Upon awakening Sunday morning
Wilkinson at once discovered that his
night roomer had taken French leave
and had appropriated money and val
uables belonging to his first roomer
to the amount of about $25. A thor
ough search for the culprit was made,
but up to this time police authorities
have been unable to get any trace of
him

WERE NEAR TO DEATH

Teacher in st. Clair Schools Rescued
Just in Time to Prevent Drowning.
Parkersburg, May 17.-Only by the
bravery and swimming ability of hel
rescuer was Miss Cora McMahan, a
teacher in the st. Clair schools, saved
from death by drowning between s and
\ 8 o'clock Tuesday night. Miss Nc
Mahan was one Of a company of four
young people, two gentlemen and two
ladies, who planned to take boat ride
on a creek near st. Clair. The rain
of the past few days had swollen the
stream until it was considerably more
than 8 little singing brook. While the
young people were somewhat accus-
toned to rowing they became frighten-
ed and the little craft was capsized,
throwing the occupants into the wa
ter.
While the four young people were
floundering about in the swollen
stream, endeavoring to swim to shore
or to catch hold of the boat, Asa Cod
ner, who was standing on the bridge
nearby, fishing, heard the screams of
the girls and fastened to their rescue.
He arrived just in time to save MISS
McMahan as she was about to sink
for the third time. She was towed to
shore and efforts made to resuscitate
her. The other young lady in the party
was quite badly injured and is quite
i'll today. 1t is apparent that she re-
ceived a bruise by some instrument on
the face as her face is quite badly
swollen and very painful.
The stream ON which the young peo-
pie planned to- take a pleasant even
ing's boat ride, is Beaver Creek, a
seemingly insignificant stream, but
the recent rains have added to its cur
rent until it became quite raging
torrent.
