Mrs. Moon's first Impreeion was

The pockeilioek taken contained a
.-mall amount of change and som* pri
vate papers.
The burglar who took Mrs. Felton's
pocket hook succeeded In making way |
with It without letting hla presence
be known. The only evidence that
she had of his presence was the dia
eovery of her loss the following
morning. Mrs. Felton stated that
she was In possession of her pocket
book upon retiring for the night and
that the nrxt morning no trace of It
could he found. Besides some private
papers and money in small denomina
tions, the hook contained an annual
paas of the Western and Atlantic rail- j
road.
An attempt was made to burglarise ;
Dr. Felton's house just two nights be
fore and the presumption Is that It
was done by the same party. The
first attempt was unsuccessful from
the fact that, the burglar attempted
to raise the window near a table cov
ered with glass and chinaware and
knocked some nf it crashing to the
floor, which awoke the family and
frightened th® midnight. Intruder
away.
