Loses Thumb Nail

\ ot to be thought remiss in our duty to the public by our esteemed contem' porary we herewith chronicle that on Tuesday afternoon at exactly six minutes after two o'clock Editor George l.. Padgett, seated in his sane tum, reached up to change the position of an electric fan. It is rumored and can be stated on good authority that Editor Padgett had been warned that if he persisted in this method of regu lating the direction of the artificial breeze something might happen. II did. Editor Padgett's thumb slipped a short distance in the path of the swiftly revolving blades and was so badly lacerated that Dr. k. F. Perry removed the thumb nail.
 Editor PadgetJ is now obliged to hold his editorial pen and blue pencil between his first and second fingers and it is alleged that incidentally he has lost his reputation as an exponent of safety first.
 The material facts stated above may be verified by glance at Editor Pad gelt's right hand now neatly bandag- ad

WOODSTOCK
 BURGLARY Summer Home of Arthur 5. Hardy En- tered and Silyerware Stolen Thought t to be Work of Tramps. Beet Tongue Left Behind

The summer home of Arthur 5. Harday, ex- | nited States minister to Spain and an author of note, on Wood stock Hill, was entered by burglars some time Monday night and silver ware valued at about $500 stolen. That the break was the work of amatuers was evidenced by the fact that no pre-. paration was made the only means of l light used being matches, a trail of the burnt ends lending through the rooms on the lower floor of the house. En- trance was gained through window.
 The break was not discovered until Tuesday morning and it Was immedi- ately reported to Deputy Sheriff l.. Il. Healy of North Woodstock and to Captain Ryan'of the Putnam poliees
 Besides taking the silver the burglars depleted the Hardy larder and enjoyed good meal while on the premises.
 MT. Hardy could not tell the exact amount of his loss but said Tuesday afternoon that it would amount to over ~-ct dS da0At AtO iJASOCe Ol ollNNl NCiC taken.
 "I think the burglars were tramps, :" said Mir. Hardy, "as they only took mall pieces of silver such as they could put in their pockets when all about the house were many valuable pieces that were not touched. No one on the premises heard a sound and we have no means of knowing what time entrance was gained".
 A partial list of the silver missing includes 53 spoons and 36 forks mark ed "G. A. H. v and 10 fish forks mark ed with an "H". This silver was taken from draw in a sideboard in the dining room.
 The Hardy home is one of the most slightly on Woodstock hill and con- tains many valuables collected by the owner in various parts of the world.
 The only possible elew was the dis eovery of beef tongue near the pre-. mises and an effort will be made to locate the source it came from

George A. HOwarth Writes from Eagle
 Pass, Texas
tiot and Dry and Rattle Snakes Plenty

The following letter, dated at Eagle Pass, Texas, from George A. Howarth, has been .reeeived by F. W. Seward Howarth is now q member of Compa. ny l, 4th Infantry, U. :. N. G. Dear Sir:
 A few lines to let you know that am feeling fine and getting along pretty good.
 We just came back from a ten mile hike. There were 3200 soldiers in the line Each man had to carry 70 pounds on his back. This is done to get us used to the terrific heat in case we have trouble with Mexico, which l don't think we will, and we get first hand news down here.
 After Ileaving Putnam II went to New York and then to Baltimore where 1 enlisted. 1 was only training two weeks before I was sent down here. I know most all of the drills. It took us five days to get here and we were furnished Pullman cars. We ar. rived at II 80 at night and slept on the train until 5.30 in the morning under heavy guard. The cars had to be un. loaded and things taken to the camp grounds. There the tents had to be pitched and trenches dug.
 II took us a couple of days to clean mp the cactus and sage brush and, be. lieve me, that cactus is something aw- fal to handle. Texas people say that cactus does not belong to the cactus family but 10 the animal family.
 On account of the heat, which is only no degrees, we are to do all of our work in the morning which in- cludes two or more hours drill.
 Once in while at night we have to show some of these MeXicans who we are. They get to drinking and have an idea that they own couple of shares in the United States.
 We are camping only about 800 yards from the Rio Grande, which is the boundary line. We have been down here month now but haven't any idea when we shall get home.
 We have to sleep with a bayonette in one hand on account of the rattle snakes. Thursday two other fellows and myself caught one four feet, eight inches long.
 Give my regards to Mrs. Seward and Clayton, also to the PATRIOT office.
