THIEVES TOO LATE

A daring robbery occurred at McDon-
ongh on Sunday night, when the home
of Boyd R. Cleaver was entered and the
house ransacked from top to bottom.
Mr.. Cleaver had sold his farm only few
days before to Mr. CHM, of near Odessa,
and it was evidently the purchase money
which the burglar was after, although he
left the house without obtaining it. Mr..
Cleaver had deposited it in bank the day
before. The thief, however, made HIM
self thoroughly at home, for he appro-
priated for his own use handsome storm
overcoat, fine fur muff and a pair of
driving gloves. He also proved to be
the possessor of considerable nerve, for
before he left he visited the sideboard
and extracted therefrom a roasted
chicken, some oranges and caEdy, of
which he partook quite literally.
Suspicion points to no one in the vi
cinity, for ON the floor of one of the rooms
was found return trip railroad ticket to
Wilmington.
