TO ROB Home OF

Arthur Davis, powder worker at
Carney's Point. living at Richardson
Park. was aroused late last night by
his wife when she found two. men
skulking about the windows on the
first floor. When Mrs Davis called
her husband the two men ran away.

good look at them and summoned
County Constable Tinsman who, with
Davis, made search OF the neighbor-
hood. but no trace Of the men was
found.
Following the discovery OF the two
men. Davis recalled that when he
boarded a trolley car at Fourth street
wharf last evening, two men followed
him and took seats on the same car.
When he changed cars at Fourth and
Market streets the men took the same
car he did for Richardson Park and
when he alighted they left the car also.
