On Sunday evening last a certain
farmer residing about a mile from Trex.
lertown went but to shut a gate that
had been left unfastened, and while
passing near the barn, he noticed that
one of the doors was open, and alo the
form of a man walking near It. These
clrcumstnnces led him to suspect that
something was wrong, and he accord
ingly called a codple of dogs and hissed
them after the Intruder. The chap left
suddenly, running like a race-horse, his
coat tails standing out straight behind.
The dogs were close up. and their furi
ous yelping caused hi in to redouble his
exsrtlons, nntl to get up a speed almost
equsl to that ot a lightning express
train. Tho chtiso continued several
hundred yards, when human fleetness
and bottom proved too much for canine
swiftness, ar.d the fellow managed to
get off safely, without a scratch or a
one." 'liio farmer on getting back
to the hodse discovered that his visitor
was no thief at all, buttinly a beau that
his hired girl h&d brought homo from
s nulnc school" to "set nrt with." Of
course the farmer regtetttcd his hasty
action In the case, but he could not help
laughing when he thought ot the agility
displayed on the occasion" by that de
parting young man. Allebtown Dem
