Every argument in favor of the

it does not embody the sentiment Of
the community in which it is to he

Two important results viii be ac-
complished by the action of the
House committee on rules in pro-
viding for an expression of opinion
in Congress on nationwide prohibit
ton and woman suffrage. A fair and

We have been going rapidly of late
toward a consolidation of govern

Marietta. Pa, March 25.--For some
time past the residents of Maytown
have been annoyed by petty thieving,
but Christian Peck has been the heav-
lest loser. He had about fifty nice
chickens of all varieties about a month
ago. For every morning on going to
feed them there seemed to be several

getting very low, and he at once sus-
picioned that thieves visited his hen
roost at night The number still de-
creased. and loading his gun on Fri
day night of last week decided to give
the thief or thieves a warm recep-
ton. Al first neighbors thought n
weasel had been carrying them off,
but no trace of blood or feathers could
be found. During the recent SHOWS no
tracks could be traced, and evidently
the nights following a snow the roost
was not visited.
On Sunday night about II o'clock
Mr.. Peck heard a noise in his pen.
Proucing his gun he opened the back
door and went down the walk. When
about one hundred feet from the coop
he saw a man come out very hurried
ly, and he blazed away. The thief
wore a stiff hat, and this was COM
pletely riddled with shot and left be-
hind. Mr.. Peck is about I5 years of
age and very active, and has not lost
his military spirit. Mr.. Peck is carry
