yesterday the residence of Mr. W. B.
McKoy, on Fifth street, was robbed dur
ing the .absence of the family. So far
four vests, one overcoat, three pairs of
pants, one hat, two pairs of shoes and a
quantity of old clothes are known to have
been stolen. Early this morning a wo
man, giving her name as Mollie King,
was seen down town with a pair of the
stolen shoes on and was tracked to her
house, which is on Fourth street, near
Swann. She was arrested and was being
brought down street when she divulged
all she!knew of the theft, ,She said that
Allen Armstrong, a boy in the employ of
Mr. McKoy, brought the shoes and some
old clothing to her house last night, and
described the stolen articles. She pro
duced most of the old clothes, but the
new ones she says she know3 nothing
about. A hunting suit of Mr. McKoy's
was 4bund in his stable, and also the suit
of clothes that Armstrong had on yester
day. Armstrong has not yet been causrht
but the officers are after him.
Seeing is believing without doubt you
can buy Cooking and Heating Stoves at al
most any price at Jacobi's. " ' f
Another Fell Destroyer.
We wrote two days ago of the slaugh
ter of fowls at night in different private
lots of this city,' by what was thought to
be a mink, and as in each instance it
happened near a small water course or
run, we thought naturally -enough that
the author of these misdeeds must be a
mink, especially as the throats of the
dead chtekens were found to be cut, with
no other damage to them. But' this
morning a gentleman residing some four
hundred yards from any running stream
of yater informed us that last night some
fowl destroyer visited his premises and
killed eleven hens and one turkey ; the
chickens had their throats cut, and so
did the turkey, but two-thirds of the
turkey was devoured or destroyed. This
leads to the supposition that the
murderer in this instance must
have been a fox,, unless it is
possible that after the mink had surfeited
himself on the blood of his victim, the
rats of the neighborhood came along and
had a grand fea3t on the flesh of the tur
key. The fowls were all locked up in a
house, too, leaving only a hole sufficient.
ly large for them to crawl through in go
ing to roost and to crawl out again in
the morning. It behooves our citizens
who want to save their poultry to stop
all the cracks and holes to their fowl
house, besides locking the door to keep
out two-legged rats.
By the way, where is the Fox Club,
the Coon Club and the rest of the sport
ing fraternity? Can't they organize a
Mink Club and catch the black var-
