THIEVES AT WORK. They Entered Three Stores and Oot Some Plunder. Thia morning about S a. in., Mrs. C. 8.

She woka her husband, who got np and went to the rear door of the store. Outsiae he saw a man who was appar ently watching andiusideLe saw an other who was attempting to get in the money drawer. "Who's that?" said Mr.l'arker. The gentleman at the drawer did not an swer bnt jumped behind the counter. Mr. Parker Bred and the next instant three men dashed by him aud out to the street followed by another shot from the store keeper's revolver. The thietea got uotbuig. They effected an entrance by a rear door. The shooting aroused the netghbors and it was found that two other stores had been entered, Mr. J. J. Johnson's, w lich is kept by Mr. J. Rowan Rogers, aad the store of Mr. J. W. Sanderford, a little higher up the street. At Johnson's, a combined bar and grocery, the thieves entered by prizing open the front door.

A Statement of Their Woricin this City. Yesterday afternoon there assem bled in the Edenton street Methodist church an enthusiastic crowd, the uni ted order of King's Daughters of the city. The meeting is an annual insti tution and is always interesting and instructive. The meeting began with song and after a prayer by Rev. D. H. Tuttle came the scripture exercises conduct ed by the president of the order, Miss Emma McVea. The next thing on the program was the most interesting re port of the mission rooms work by the year by Mrs. Hayes, superintendent of the rooms. The work has been heavy and tiresome but has been dis charged with conscientious ability. During the year 886 persons applied to the mission rooms for aid. Of these 486 were aided. Over 1,500 visits to needy people were made during the year by Mrs. Hayes and her assistants. When any one applies for help-his or her case is thoroughly investigated and thus intelligent aid may be given. The homes of the people are visit'd and by this means tne masses are better reached. Over 30 homes were procured by the mission the last year. One of the features of mission room work is sending poor boys and girls to reformatories and schools. Three girls were sent this year to a reforma tory and a boy sent to school to learn a trade. ime cnildren are now wait ing to be Bent. What makes the work of the mission rooms remarkable is the fact that all the funds are raised by voluntary subscriptions. After various other exercises, it eluding the reports of circles.etc, th installation of officers was effected. Mrs.. Kendrick was installed president, Mrs. Carter and Mrs. Emma McVea vice-presidents; Miss Eliza Moore sec retary and Miss Mary Pescud treasurer. After the benediction by. Rev. Or Marshall the meeting adjourned to Mrs. McVea's, where a reception was given by the board of directors. This was a delightful affair. . Miss McVea was presented with a handsome oak wood desk as a mark of esteem from the various circles. There are 17 cir cles in the city, each of which has a special line of work. Thus there is no clashing. The work is a great one. Let it go on. The Reception this Evening.

Tomorrow evening Boyd's modern minstrels appear at Metropolitan hall. The Elmira Gazette says: "The au dience was delighted with Boyd's min- strels, as they certainly gave one of the old time, happy-go lucky minstrel shows. Their American and Euro pean specialties were simply elegant. The quartette is certainly far above the average, and the orchestra ren dered some of the fluest music ever heard in the opera house. James West as a female impersonator, both in dress, make-np and acting, is a fin ished artist in his business. Shauld they ever visit Elmira again they will be greeted by a full house."
