Hearing read and upon tho supposition
that it was a receipt for tho 150 only.
January 1st the plaintiff went to the
bank and found that the defendant
had been there that morning as soon
as tho bank opened and drawn out the
money, and later iu the day ho saw
defendant and demanded of' him the
H'iO balance; which defendant refused
to pay claiming the plaintiff's wife
had a homestead right on tho premises
and he was going to pay tho money to
her. Plaintiff made another demand
and then brought this suit, which was
immediately followed by a divorce
proceeding on tuopur f his vife,wbo
had declined to live with him after
the sale, of farm.
Tho defendant claimed that ho pur
chased tho farm because the plaintiff
had got sick of his trade and was go-
I ing to leave anyway ; that it was
agreed that he should purchase back
the half interest in tho premises for
81000, but that plaintitf'b wifo who
waa present, declined to sign tho deed
unless she could have ?40(l of tho pro

lirooks and daughter had returned
homo from tho party thoir uttontion
was attracted to a man hanging about
tho house, walking back and forth
and acting suspiciously. There was a
dim light in the room down stairs oc
cupied by Mrs. lirooks who is out of
health, and it was extinguished to
watch proceedings. The follow had
sidled up to this window several times
to peek under tho curtain which was
up a few inches from tho bottom of tho
window and soon he was heard there
again fumbling to raise it.
Tho inmates wore watching and Mr.
Brooks was deliberating whether to
shoot lie had tho iron handy or to
call tho police. But tho follow, per
haps frightened away by hearing some
noise, went back to the street, and
Mr. Hrool.B telephoned to Officer Hall
who was on tho spot in a very few
moments. The fellow had cleared out
but Hall tracked him in tho fresh
snow clear to the houso where he
rooms, and found his overcoat all snow
i howiug ho had lately been out. Tho
fellow denied having been about Air.
Brooks houso at all, and was able to
show by a companion that ho came
homo soon after midnight, but the com
panion didn't know whether ho went
into tho houeo or not. The tracks had
it frequent twisted look, as if tho fcl
low had turned round to look behind
hii.i and a purl of the vvav thev indi
cated a lively pace. There was an
other fellow on the street late that
night, going home with a girl, and ho
hints it, and Hall after careful in
vestigHtion is sattsheil that he is ot
tho offender. In fact the tracks leave
n j chance for ilouiit that it was the
first one.
3 Of course ti.e iirst idea it suggests is
that he was o:i burglary intent, and
is ti;e man who committed tho deure-
lrew I Uations last summer. But there are
le- smne points, ehicllv in his reeord. to
indicate that ho was dogging lound
after a darkv servant girl, though
the family and her friends trill not
believe it, insisting that shu is "no
mch girl." and if this was the pur
toie, it is remarkable that ho should
have been fumbling about the be:it
r.jom in the house.
