It is a buggy anyone can be proud of at any time.

Mr. Powell knew nothing of the affair until about ten o'clock when one of his neighbors noticed on his way to Sunday school the broken glass of the door and the drawer and scattered pennies on the porch and called him. Boys stealing small sums of money are sure to be caught sooner or later, but this is the first case of real burg lary we have heard of in this vicinity, The worst of it is the fact that catch ing the thief does not bring back the hard earned dollars they have taken. There ought to be a law to the effect that when the thief is caught, the loser should give him a good horse whipping, which would be better than sending him to the Penitentiary.
