THE TIMES, NEW . BL00MFIEL1), P,A., JULY 21, 1877.
A Daring Robbery.
The Philadelphia North American of
the lUk lust., says: Yestordny niornlug
when an nttendnnt In M. E. Dickson's
Jewelry store, No, 85 Bonth Eighth street,
opened the establishment lie was horrified
to And that tbo place had been entered
and robbed. The safe door was open nnd
' the contents of the receptacle gone Lying
on the floor wore combination mid single
jimmies, brace, bits, screws, wedges, a
heavy leadenheaded hnmmer and strong
bars.
An examination made by the officers dis
closed the fact that the thieves had entered
the place by prying off a padlock of the
cellar door at No. 81, under the hair and
wig store of II. Hollander, after which a
hole about two feet square was cut in the
foundation wall, by which means an en
trance was gained Into the cellar of M.
Levy's fancy notion store, No. 83. In
this place thore were two cellars, to both
of which there were trap doors leading into
the store, and to avoid cutting another
hole they broke open the door of the first
cellar, entered it and then opened tlio
second cellar, which brought them into the
one adjoining Mr. Dickson's store. In
this way another two feet hole wos cut,
which allowed them access to the cellar,
then the door was broken opon and the
store gained. In the rear stood the safe,
a small sheet-iron one, the door of which
was neatly pried open with the jimmies
and wedges, no powder being used, and all
the jewelry it contained of any value
carried off. It is evident they left by the
same means they entered, as no doors were
opened, and that Mr. Dickson's store was
the objective point Is shown ill the fact
that nothing was disturbed in the store of
Mr. Levy, though they passed through it
both in going in and in coming out.
Mr. Dickaon was bo much distressed
over his misfortune yesterday that he could
not give a full account of his loss, but it
comprised some of his finest jewelry.
There were six large foolscap sheets of
watches, three packages of heavy chains
and a very large assortment of bracelets
and diamonds valued in all at , about $ 18,
000. The thieves did not touch a smaller
safe containing cheap jewelry, but every
thing of value was carefully selected. Mr.
Dickson has been peculiarly unfortunate,
in 1865 his store was robbed of $10,000
worth of jewelry, and about six months
ago a thief climbed over the transom and
and secured f 000 worth of goods.
Interesting Will Case.
John D. Lewis, the hoad of the dry
goods firm of Lewis, llaviland & Co.,
Church and Chamber streets, while out
riding in Central Park, New York, about
one year ago, was thrown from his carriage
and killed. - lie left a will bequeathing
$15,000 to different parties, and directed
that the income of his estate, about f 250,
000 in unencumbered real estate, be paid
to Miss Lizzie Barton Taylor until she
was lawfully married. If she had any
children the estate was to go to them, and
if not married, or without children she
died, i he was to be buried in the same
grave witn tne testator, ana mat tne estate
' be expended in beautifying the grave.
It was suspected that Mr. Lewis had
negro blood in his veins, and the wall was
contested by Henry Lewis and Mary Smith,
brother and sister, both with full negro
blood in their veins, and claiming to be
half-brother and half-sister of the deceased.
On the trial it was proved that Lewis was
the son of a Virginia slave woman and a
Canadian, his mother having fled to Canada
during the existence of slavery in the
United States ' Judge Barrett in the
special term of the supreme Court gave his
dicision in the case. He sweeps away all
the provisions of the will except that giving
Miss Taylor the income of the estate
until she is lawfully married, and whether
she has children or not the estate then
goes to Lewis and his sister.
An Inhuman Mother.
A. Greensboro correspondent writes :
On Tuesday morning, just after dawn, a
negro women, at that time living with a
well known family, . and acting in the
capacity of a seamstress, gave birth to a
male child in the garden. Being alone
he dug a hole in the ground and buried
it, immediately after which she left the
scene without giving the slightest intima
tion of what bad occurred.
About nine o'clock, however, the lady
of the house while in the garden gathering
vegetables, was startled at the sight of a
carious rise in the earth near her feet. A
servant was called to solve the mystery,
when, to the horror of both, the body of a
well developed live infant was found scarce
ly a foot below the surface.
Notwithstanding the fact that it had
been buried for fully four hours, it lived
till 0 o'clock that evening.
tW During a thunder storm which re
cently passed over MeadviUe, George L.
, Miller, sixteen years of age, of Mead twp.,
was instantly killed by lightning. He had
takon refuge nnder a tree. On examination
of his body it was found that the electrio
fluid bad imprinted an exact representation
of the leaves and branches of the top of
the tree upon his back, while exaotly over
bis heart was a small round bole burned in
bis ilesh, and through his clothing.
