CnIOUS FEAR OF A S0ltNAMRU lT.-A

was inado, no clue to the missing cash could
b)e fund Tihi money was taken from a
hIawor which was kept. locked, and the key
im the gttletman's pocket. Tito draw had

text day, wheint a set. of silver spoons were
ui:tiied. The servants were sug"ectoed of
lie theft, and .s a knowledge that, the arti
les; had been tnissed had been kept fromt
them, it was determined to keep a watch
I he tnext night, and fasten the guilt upon
whoevee should be caught. All about. the
house remained quiet, until about t wo o'clock
w heln a stir was heard. Tiho person whto
was oil the wiateh peered cautiously through
lie h:ll fruin IIInou camte tie sounds of

tiously to file woodshed, atid covered tie
plate carefully in a barrel of ashos and
stiarted back to his house. lie was awoke,
however, by (lie watchitian, and appeared
greally bewilhlered at. fitding himself in
that place. Tito matter was explained to
hinm, iam1l search was at once instituted
among Ih o sites for the imtissing property.
The search was happily rewarded by the
discovery of the silver plato, spoons aid
greenbacks, safely scoreted among the ash

gentleinan, who had been uneonsionsly guil
