Last Friday night two burglars
broke Into the store of W. T. Den,
this city, and carried away about $200
worth of goods, consisting of ready
made clothing, boots and shoes and a
shot gun. Billy McReynolds, the
clerk, was sleeping in the store at the
time, and they took his watch and
fifty cents in money from his pockets.
The burglars effected an entrance into
the cellar through the door at the rear
end of the building and then forced
up a trap door which leads from the
store room through the floor to the
cellar. After hurriedly gathering up
some goods and scattering Eome over
the floor they went out the same way
they entered. They must have been
very cautious and noiseless in their
proceedings or they would have
waked up the sleeping clerk.
On Saturday morning Den and
Sheriff Plasters started in pursuit of
the robbers, going down the river as
far as St. Deroin, we believe. On their
road down they notified different par
ties of thejrobbery, amongst whom
was young Craumore who lives some
two miles below this city. After the
Sheriff had passed Cranmore's some
time, two men approached Cranmore's
premises and went into an old stable
for protection against the rain that
fell nearly all that day. Cranmore
went out to the stable where the men
were, and after taking a good look at
them and noticing their new boots and
wearing apparel feltsatisfied that they
were the chaps that Den and the
Sheriff were after. But Cranmore
kept his thoughts to himself.and kind
ly invited the men to go to the house
and warm and dry themselves. This
this they at first declined to do, say
ing they could do very well where
they were until the rain abated; but
Cranmore insisted and said they were
welcome, and so on, and finally thej'
were induced to go into the house.
Then Cranmore went out and kept a
vigilaut watch for the return of the
Sheriff and Mr. Den, and it was not
long until his anxiety wa3 rewardad
by seeing them coming up the road
the gentlemen in the house were yet
warming and drj'ing themselves.
Cranmore beckoned to the Sheriff and
Den to come to him, which they has
tened to do, and in a few words Cran
more informed them of what was the
matter. And they went in and with
out difficulty made prisoners of the
two strangers. Cranmore's suspicions
4were correct they were the,robbers.,
Den as soon as he saw tliemTsaw and'
IkTaewlfpinSSSof" his goods. IZfr
These men-came to this place down
the the river ina skiff, and after com
mitting the robbery left the same way,
but did not go far for some reason, and
run their skiff up a tlough, which is
now filled with back water from the
river. In this skiff or near it in the
brush were the stolen goods wrapped
in an oil cloth ; and at the request of
the SheriffandMr.Den they went and
got the goods and shot gun. And the
clerk gol his watch.
On Monday morning the burglars
were taken before Judge Church when
they waived a trial and were commit
ted to jail in default of bail.
They gave their names as Charles
Blanchard and Wm. Allison, but from
papers and letters found upon Allison,
It is suspected that Allison is his alias,
and that his true name is James Stew
art. Upon his person were found a
letter supposed to have been written
by his wife, directed to James Stewart,
and a receipt for taxes paid by Jas.
Stewart, to J. T. Brock, Sheriff of
Montgomery count', Kansas. The
letter did not indicate where it was
written, more than that it referred to
business matters in Kansas and to In
dependence, and there is a town by
that name we believe in Montgomery
county, Kansas. The letter i3 written
with care not to reveal the place of
the writer, and there are careful allu
sions made In it to the burning of a
house, which leads to the suspicion
that these fellows, or Stewart at least,
has been engaged In committing
crimes elsewhere, and where he is
now wanted. We understand that
Sheriff Plasters has written to Inde
pendence to find out about the matter.
They are both young men. Blan
chard is the younger, and has lost one
leg from just below the knee and now
sDorts a verv nice cork lejr. His friends
may remember him by this descrip
tion, and if they want to see him they
may do so by applying to the jailer of
this city.

Man is naturally religious; the
form.tof it is a matter of education.
Let no one be deceived, thinking ed
ucation creates the religion. It can
not do it any more than it can create
intellect. Education creates nothing.
It developes the faculty is back of it.
People should not say unkind, un
charitable things about the form of
his neighbor's religion. The same
idee may be expressed differently.

In every cl Ira e adored

Eld. Barrow delivered two discours
es on baptism last sabbath at the Glen
Rock school house, which was intend
ed to answer a sermon preached by
Rev. Austin a few weeks before. But
the Elder proved by the New Testa
ment that the mode "was immersion
according to the Bible by bringing a
good many proper names in the New
Testament, with the meaning or sig
nification of the words in their origi
nal language; but we failed to find
one statement he made concerning
Paul at the river side where Lydia was
baptized. Paul may havo immersed
her, but, does the Bible say so? We
do not wish to dispute with the Eider
bat will say like the Indian to the
missionery, we have the wrong book,
that is, if the Bible says that Paul did
baptize her. And here another idea
presents itself to us in regard to the
conversion of Lydia and the jailer,
both of which he spoke of in his dis
course. We believe in a man being
soundly converted, and we have here
examples in Ltfdia and the jailer.
Lydia was a sinful woman and God
opened her eyes and melted her heart
kindly and brought her to a taste of
his goodness here and glory hereafter,
and the jailer was an outrageous re
bellious man, for when the apostles
were committed to prison he laid them
In the stocks, frc, which we will not
quote here. Now, in conclusion give
us a christian that God doth please to
work upon in this extraordinary man
ner and to break his heart soundly,
and to throw him down to purpose
though it cost him full dear; this man
walks ordinarily with more care and
conscience, and hath more comfort
coming to himself, and gives more
glory unto God. Pity for the poor ig
norent class that' they are not good
greek scholars,
cersand thatifc
then they might un-
t was.noLaecessary to
be convertedbefore Baptism.

him arrested for an assault and bat

the examination' it was found that
Bezie was guilty, whereupon his at
torney A. Clair sets up the plea that
defendent had the right to make the
attack as he was ou his own premises,
for which he agreed to show a clause
in our statutes, upon whicli the court
was adjourned one day to give the at
torney time to find the law ; the final
result of which we havo not learned
