Burglars Busy at Clare-Shortly
after midnight, Thursday night three
burglars entered James O'Connor's
grocery at Glare by means Of break
ing the glass in the rear door and
reaching in and unlocking same.
Over $500 in money was taken from
the till and several other small
things were missing Eli Ramey's
lunch room was the next place en-
tered, entrance being gained by
means of prying open the skylight
and tearing off the screen on the in
side. Here they did not get rich as
only little over one dollar was left
in the till, but they helped them
selves to cigars and cigarettes and it
is thought left by way of the front
door. In spite of the fact that an
operator is always in the tower, they
entered the p. NJ. ticket office at the
Union depot and secured over $500.

Address The City Editer"
Not Mothers Kind.

Seated in the lobby of a wash
ington hotel, waiting for the dining
room to be opened. I noticed a
very pretty girl making herself
conspicuous by her criticisms OF
the guests of the hotel. Her re-
marks were so loud everyone near
her could hear. In a short time
the dining-room was opened. As
one old gentleman passed the young
lady on his way to. the dining
room, he stopped aud said to her.
'T could not help hearing your re-
marks, and II you will pardon an
old man would like to remark
to you ! think you would be .
very sweet, nice little girl IL there
were only q little more yeast IN
your system"
She smiled and when the gen.
tleman had passed out OF hearing.
she turned to her companion and
said, 'I Just do not quite under
stand what the gentleman meant"
Her companion said. We'll, can
think of no solution unless your
remarks were resented and he

True Devotion.

On my way to the office morn
ings. l have been for some time
passing an old gentleman going in
the opposite direction. whose &C.
centric appearance has often
aroused my curiosity as to who he
might be. His bearing is thorough
ly that of a gentleman of the old
school. although his apparel is very
modern. and perhaps l might say.
even somewhat jaunty. He has a
gray Van Dyke beard. and refined.
thin features. but what / have al
ways noticed principally about him
are his eyes. large and blue and
kindly. yet keen and alert. with
lurking sadness In their depths.
1 have often noticed his-fendness
for children for 1 have seen him
stop and exchange a few words of
greeting to dirty little street urCh-
ins with the same graciousness and
kindness which / have seen him
use to children of more prosperous
and prepossessing appearance. And
i have noticed. too. the expression
In his eyes change from one OF
laughing. kindly humor. to one of
sadness and yearning when he sees
young couple walking along arm
In arm, or young boys and girls
perhaps school sweethearts. ban
tering and enjoying each others
company.
The other morning i met an ac-
quaintance who told me the old
mans story. and L thought that in
this busy. rushing twentieth CEN
tury where all OF us mortals are
somewhat a little too prosaic and,
matter-of-fact. that the old mans
story would be as interesting to
others as II was to me. IL seems
he was the scion of a very old, dis
tinguished and fairly wealthy fam
lily; that he graduated from college
and afterwards held a professors
chair In the same. He had been
since boyhood days, deeply attached
to a young lady. who although very
beautiful and sweet. met with the
disapproval Of his entire family be-
cause her social position was far
inferior to theirs, and her parents
quite poor, but he battered down
the opposition of his family and the
date for the wedding was set. but
an epidemic which was raging
caught his young fiancee In its grip
and despite all efforts to save her
died on the day on which she was
to have been married. His grief
was intense and he went away to
forget. but always he came back.
Later his parents died and he in
herfted their possessions and has.
for some years, led somewhat the
life of a reciuse, with only his serv-
ant for company. Each mornngi
he walks to the florists, not far
from his home. and selects flowers
which he personally takes to the
cemetery where his loved one is
buried.
Ny informant's closing remarks
were. It's too bad there aren't more
with his sincerity and devotion
these days.- and somehow I couldn't
help but feel that she had verbally
expressed what had been thinking.
And somehow. j feel that when I
meet the old man in the future.
