habit of leaving all doors unlocked.
But now it is different, all places of
egress and incoming are secured at
dark. About 2 a. M, Wednesday, the
family heard a noise like opening
doors and cupboards downstairs. Mr..
E., in his haste, couldn't locate his
trousers, and Mrs. was equally at sea
regarding the matches. Meanwhile
the burglar vamoosed. Every bureau
and cupboard drawer and door was
open. No money was found. Mr.. e.

Whiskey got the better Of a nice
young married man (when sober) last
Thursday evening, not a mile from
Five Corners. A scream was heard by
neighbors at 10 p. m. and call for
help. When help arrived it was
over. The wife had been struck, and
brother-in-law had BACKED an eye
for the husband in defense of the
wife. The placing of the blind on
his globe brought on a repentant feel
ing to the lord and master, and the
neighbors found the wife though
wounded in feelings and body, bath
ing the darkened optic of her master
and lord. Wonderful are the work
ings of whiskey and also the affec-
tions of woman.
