Gone to the Saviour's love. Gone to the Angel's bright, Gone far away beyond the skies, Up to the world of light. The little white bid is empty now, The little toys laid by, A mother's hope, a father's joy, In Death's cold arm doth lie. She's up there in Glory waiting Jn that happy heavenly home, And the little hands are beckoning Fcr the loved oneB here to come. Bnt some day if we may enter, Through the pearly portals wide, She will be the lira 6 to meet us, Over on the other side. -v Written by a friend. Communion at Lutheran Ctiapel.

Wednesday night that there was any con nection between this fact and the robbery of Holshouser & Si Herd's store on Main Street on the same nights There is an. ancient story to the effect that when the cat is away the mice will play, so our chief officer haying gone a 'possum hunting, climbing trees and shooting at fleeing grinning billies, it is no won der a robbery was committed right in the heart of the town. The question is, who is responsible for making the chief's absence known? The town being thus de serted and unprotected the opportunity for any old stray thief, safecracker or other t erson to break in and rob was to tempting to be neg lected. So a black-hearted hungry heathen from Squash Bottoms, or somewhere else, proceeded to break open the the shutters, break a glass and entered the store of Holshouser & Sifferd through a rear window. Aft9r reach ing the interior of the store Mr, Thief helped himself to numerous articles such as about one man could get away withr The robbery was not disM covered until the store was" opened early yesterday when an effort was made to learn the extent of the loss. A hat, a - pair shoes, some pocket knives, a razor,, some'erackers alid -about - two - pounds -of cheese, a . Rmall amount of change left in the cash drawer and a few other small articles were missing. An attempt was made, to open the safe but was not success ful. There is no clue and no onehas an idea as to who the thief was. Although the police force had been 'possum hunting and climbing trees in the tall timbers just as they did three thousand years ago, it was on the scene early yesterday morning and was as sorry as anybody else, and not" being able to go get the desired robber, Chief Holshouser lent a band toward repairing the damages and was suitably rewarded therefor. Again a thief puts one pver on us and gets away with the goods, which seems almost as easy as the blind tigqr business in Salisbury. Colonel Freeze on Deck Again. Lieutenant Colonel Plucky Freeze has stepped into the lime light again, or rather on a nail. Tuesday morning for some reason Colonel Plucky crawled into his pig--pen and not being too old and stiff proceeded to show his agile ability by jumping out. In landing one foot came down on a nail that had been driven through a piece of plank and was standing with the point up. The nail pene trated his shoe and entered the loot, causing the foot to become sore and giving Mr Lucky an excuse for a few daj 's loaf ing. Lucky is still all right and and is looking ahead to the fitful observance of his next anniversary. , . A Surprise Birthday Dinner. Mr. and Mrs. Ran Sloop's children and friends gathered at the Sloop home last Sun day while the old folks were at church and placed a birth day dinner on the table as a surprise to Mrs. Sloop, Jt be ing her 55th birthday.
