Last Thursday night while Geo.
Mattiford and his family were
peacefully asleep, robbers broke in
to his residence on the Hazel
Farm, went to the kitchen, built
a fire and cooked themselves a
feast, which they procured by ran
sacking the larder, and then plumb
cred about for anything they could
find. Fortunately the door between
the kitchen and other part of the
house was locked and they were
unable to make an entrance, being
obliged to confine the plunder to
the kitchen. Besides many things
from the larder, they got away
with some clothing. There was no
evidence that they were after
money, and it seems that they
were more starved than anything
else.

NEW YORK, Oct. 13.-Buying
pent up over the Columbus Day
recess flooded the stock market
today and pushed prices up frac-

The initial rush of orders
swamped the ticker tape which
fell behind for brief period right
after the opening. Thereafter,
however, trading slowed its pace
but continued heavy.
Activity covered almost every
major group in the list, but par
ticular favorites were rails, steels,
motors and oils.
Farm implements were back
ward. Manufacturers are begin
ming to see the pinch coming in
steeLshortages. Distillers and mo-
ton pictures were quiet.
The market now stands at the
years peak on average, and a
number of selected issues are
coming into prominence with sub
stantial gains.
Wall Street observers still be-
lieve the immediate future of bus
mess generally is sound, despite
many disrupting influences. Some
issues haven't participated fully
in the market rise going on since
mid June, and there now are be-
ing singled out for attention.
