Robbery--How the Wallet that Taken from an Emaus Man's owner Pocket Was Mysteriously Rerned. Several weeks ago we gave the particulars in these columns of a very queer robbery at Emaus, on the East Penn railroad, some $90 having been stolen out of a pocket in the Sunday trousers of Mr.

Oliver Miller while hanging in a bed room chamber in his house. The matter caused considerable comment, and suspicion centered on several parties. Their actions were closely watched, but nothing could be seen or discovered that warranted the belief that the persons held in distrust were guilty of the crime, or had any, knowledge of it. When the matter had almost been forgotten, and allowed to rest among those mysteries which no one can understand, the people were again surprised to hear that Mr. Miller had found his pocket book with the money, intact, just as he had left it when last put away.

Mrs. Miller the other day after ironing her weekly wash placed the chirts, in their usual places in a bureau drawer, and when Mr. Miller some days later came to get a clean dicky the missing pocket book fell out of one of those freshly put in. He quickly examined it, found all correct. The question now is, who stole the wallet, and contents, and who put it back, Tramp Assaults a Little Boy.

Yesterday afternoon as the little son and of Frederick Buck, proprietor of the White House hotel, were out on the hill gathering berries, a tramp assaulted the boy in a most shameful manner. The chi'dren had become separated, the boy going up nearer of the hill, when he noticed a man toward him. The brute, when he reached the boy, threw him down and assaulted him in most indecent manner. The children, as soon as possible, ran home and told Mr. Buck of the occurrence, when a party was organized and the woods scoured for the boy's assailant, who was caught and taken before Alderman Rittner.

The fellow gave his name as John Barns, and said he was from Lancaster. In default of bail he was sent to prison to answer at Court. Sunday's Church Directory. Covenant M. E.
