PEEP|NG TOM.

On Tuesday evening at about 2!
o'clock the home Of Mr.. Bertrand
Toflier, on West st. Peters street,
was considerably disturbed by q
prowler peeling in at one OF the
windows. The inmates Of the
house had not yet retired, but Mr..
Tofiier had gone to his room.
Shortly after the movement of the
window shutter attracted his at
tentlon and in looking in that d.
rectiOn he saw the head and
shoulders OF q man standing just
outside. 1t was q shock and a
surprise to him and as the party
moved away he halloOed to HIM.
This ont.cry alarmed the house
hold. In a very few minutes the
neigh bOrhO0d was made aware OF
the occurrence and armed men
were searching the premises OF
the neighboring properties for
como trace of the prowler, but
none could be found.
Under Mr.. Toftier's window was
found a key, 1t is SUPPOSED that
the prowler used this to stand on
to open the blind, when he was
seen. Sir Toffier says the man
wo,e a light colored hat and coat,
but the outer darkness SO shielded
his cOuntenance that he was una
ble to say whether he was a white
man or Il negro.
The night police is given credit
for a prompt response to the sum
mons. There was no clue, how
ever, left them to serve as u fol
lOw.up.
Some are of the opinion that thu
prOwler is the same offender whit
was run out of Lafayette a shOrt
time ago This supposition il
based upon the fact that both cul
prits are operating along the same
lines apparently.
