A search of the premises wn mnrln lmt finA t veal the author of the bombardment although it continued while the search was neing made ana seemingly from all directions. In alarm Mrs. Crowner called the police and Chief Kearney hurried to the house. He, too, heard the rocks striking the house but could not find from whence they came. He watched for an hour when the heavy storm began and made further vigilance Useless. However. Sntlii-ilnv nuirninn Officer Manning took up the watch ana during tne alternoon Chief Kear strnnire hnnneninir. Neiehbors. including William Coffman and Miss Thelmn Coffman, substantiated the story told by the occupants of the house. Not only did the air rain sticks and stones on to the roof, but at different times pebbles, dirt and chips rattled down the chimney nnd fell into the room from a pipe hole, according to their story. A boulder as big as a man's head fell at the feet of Miss Coffman and yet it hardly dented the earth.

Mr. Pierce, who lives at 50i Maple, declares he smffprl as mnnh oo one at the story until he saw with his own eyes and nearil with his own enrs. On both sides of the roof, ho s:.ys he watched and saw rocks roll to the ground but never was he able to see one of the rocks until it was within a few feet of the roof. He went inside the house and several stones a few chips and a handful of dirt rolled out of the flue. He and. Mr. Coffman made a complete search of the neighborhood but could learn nothing of the mysterious storm of missiles. Thpre i nn ntH.- tn tli. house.

High bluffs rise memseives Behind it some 50 yards but, as Mr. Pierce points out, any one of the rocks thrown from the distance would have crocked the shinirles. and there mi nn a .kinu even splintered..

Neighbors, have carried off other rocks which they themselves saw fall. Altogether, the affair has grown to quite a neighborhood mys tery, and. as the cronns crafhor tn Me. cuss it, they involuntarily show the SUDerstitious trend nf thoiv thmin-litii by telling of ghosts, apparitions and other strange things of which they have heard in times past.
