Shaffer, at Oriental, Juniata count v, was enter- o led by burglars Thursday night of last week. Mr. Qhaner has theeleo tric alarm at all windows in his store room, connected it with his led room in the dwellimr house, a . - 0 , distance ofabout ten rod". Alxjut 12 o'clock that night he happened to get awake and looked out the window, seen light in his. -tore room, getting his shot gun and raising his window he tired through one of the store windows, the shot lodging deep in the wall on the opposite side, but did not hit the rascals. He then went to the room and found his safe ready to shoot oft. The money draw er was broke open, and the change, consisting of a few dollars, was out and some lying on the floor. If Mr. Shaffer would not have .seen the light and soared them oft they would undoubtedly have helped themselves to a good many things and destroy ed the safe. Mr. Shaffer had no money in the safe. This is the third attempt in a few years to rob this stor'i. If another attempt is made we hope Mr. Shaffer will Im-able to get a little closer and give them a o g 1 1,01 reception. nernaon Nor. $650 TO $1200 A YEAR.
