August Has Come
And brought with it the List month of summer proper. Peo
ple's ideas nre changing, however, and in place of recogniz
ing four seasons as formerly, i. e Spring, Sumtner,-u-tumn
and Winter, many people content themselves with
preparing for two, viz. : Summer and Winter, and for the
short periods that intervene content themselves with one or
two inexpensive trifles in dress that come in handy at any
season of the year, wh en the temperature is moderate. It is
to such that we especially address ourselves now. although
tha same reasoning ought to be applicable to ladies who
contemplate traveling or sojourning by the seaside or the
mountain lakes.

VILLAIN WAS FOILED.
An unknown Individual made a bold
but unsuccessful attempt to enter the
reld"noe of Mr. and Mrs. Shepherd
Snow, at 322 South Hyde nark avenue,
about o..W o'clock last Saturday morn
ing. The follow was discovered by
Mrs. Snow Just as ho put his head in
the open window, preparatory to climb
ing in. Her screams frightened the
prowler, roused her husband, nnd
startled the neighbors. In th.' midst
of the exclt-.-ment. the unknown man
aged to flee away.
Dl ers tales have been recorded
anent this incident but the tiue one
is thus told l.y the parties most con
cerned. Usually Mr. Snow, who is an
engineer on the Central Railroad of
New Jersey, is absent nights every
other week, and this was the week.
However, he had made an extra run
and had been relieved about mld
ligbt. Friday. He reached home about
32. -K o'clock and retired.
Owing to the extreme heat. Mr. and
Mrs. Snow h.'d made themselves com
fii table on couches In the sitting room
on the first door. The couch occupied
by Mrs Sn nv stood near a window
opening from an L on to a rear porch.
Through this window, the prowler on
evil Intent, tried to enter. Hi remov
al of the screen aroused Mrs. Snow
and she partially arose as he put hi
head Into the opening. He. seeing her.
threatened to shoot if she spoke. She
saw no rev fiver and. squirming Into
a bay window, promptly gave voice.
Her husband sprang for his revol
ver and th fellow cleaned out. The
reichlu-rs whose windows were all
open wore aroused nnd Mrs. Adam
Frounfelker. whoe room Is opposite
the bay window of the Snow residence,
fearing that th screams wore the re
sult of an attack upon Mrs. Snow,
opened her window and tired her re
volver to frifhten the fellow. It did
for he was h.-ard scrambling hurriedly
over the Kick fence.
Tho attempt was particularly bold,
as the milkman had just left the resi
dence next door where he delivered
mill:, ard was only 300 feet away when
Mrs. Snow screamed He ran back
and was so.n Joined by Patrolman
MoCollican who was only two blocks
distant on Main avenue. Tho neigh
borhood wa scoured but no peron
was found, the fellow havlnc made
pood his escape. Only the week pre
vious some fellow unconcernedly
walked into the house by the rear
door. Mrs. Snow was sitting up wait
ing for hr husband, w ho had not come
In yet. When she called, the fellow
walked out. She thought it was some
man who hid mistaken his house. It
would not be advisable for nnvone to
try to enter the Frour.felker residence,
as Mrs. Frounfelker though alone most
of the time, her husband being a rail
roader. Is a dead shot and absiluteh
Jearlefs. If she had known the fel
low was outside she could easily have
shot htm.
