called for by the newly made pstrolman.
Edward Day. who reported for duty last

case Of emergency.
Nellie has. according to reports at the

miserable for those who reside near her

ROBBERS DRIVEN AWAY.
An attempt was made early this morn
ing to break into the Office OF the Manton
mills on Manton avenue, which for a few
moments caused the 40 girls who are en-
ployed nights as winders and spoilers to
be very much alarmed as they we're
aware of the fact that there was but one
of the six men employed at the mills
nights that was armed, that being the
watchman. One OF the girls went TO a
window. which was opened and upon look
ing out saw one man and she thinks two.
who were prowling about one OF the rear
windows OF the office and today being
payday. came to the conclusion that the
men were robbers and at once gave the
alarm. The watchman was quickly found.
and he, with the other men employed.
armed as best they could, went to the Of
Nee building and saw the man. who ran
away.
The searching party followed him for
syrne distance up the raifruad tracks, and
then came to the conclusion that his pals,
AZ he had any would break into the office.
and blow the safe, so returned, but no
one was seen afterwards. The girls did
not get over their fright at the hour OF
leaving the mill In the morning.
