MORE BURGLARIES.-We believe that the
gang OF burglars is at last arrested, whose ex.
PLOTS the past fortnight have occupied consid.
erapie sur III the community, without, however
much pecuniary loss, AT an early hour yester.
day morning Peter Connors shop On CONNER
ctal street, bet tween Union and Cross. was
entered by breaking out window and crawl
ing through the aperture. A quantity of
liquors were stolen. Kinds apothecary store
under the Preble House was also entered by
crawling through the cellar window. Not
much was taken.
About o'clock in the morning officer Seth
STERLING while on his beat observed boy run
ming down Centre street, and, thinking some
thing was wrong, gave chase to him and finally
compelled him to stop under threat of shooting
him if he continued to run. He was taken to
the station, where he was charged by Deputy
Sterling with having engaged in several of the
recent burglaries. He finally owned up and
implicated three other boys His name is
James ODonnell aud he is only Is wears o.
age. Deputy Sterling with officers Libby ano
Sterling proceeded to hunt up the other boy!
and soon arrested Patrick Flaherty Befor,
eight O'Clock. Deputy Sterling arrested the othe
two, George Pbean and Stephen Doherty
These boys admit breaking and entering these
two stores Wednesday night, and also the fur.
niture shop OF Mr.. Hoyt On Prebe st. The bur.
glaries at w. w. Browns shop and Lorng's
drug store were probably the work of the same
parties. The fact that all these boys are accus-
toned to 60 barefooted has rendered their
movements noiseless and therefore much more
difficult to discover. None of these Young
rogues are over fifteen years of age.
