DEcEAsED.-Mr. Ansel Tucker. who for
some thirty-sx years past, had been connected
with the Boston and Maine Railroad, as con-
ductor, died in this city at the Falmouth
HOTEL at 80 a. M, yesterday. Mr.. Tucker
had been suffering for several weeks past from
a carbuncle on the back of the neck, but fe W
days ago the inflammation ceased and it was
thought he would recover. But his strength
was unequal to the task.
Mr.. Tucker was a resident of this city for
many years, but more recently, of Dover, N.
H., where he had purchased that well-known
hotel, the New Hampshire House. He was a
man of many friends, possessing a genial
hearty manner, and will be much missed.
During all his long service in connection with
the Boston and Maine we believe no train un
der his care ever met with an accident. He
leaves family of widow, two sons, and two
daughters. His funeral will take pllce at the
Falmouth Hotel tomorrow at IL o'clock

A FINE SCHOONER Quits Bros. are build
ing fine three -masted schooner at their yard
at Fish Point. She is owned by Yeat)n &
Boyd. Capt Dalling, who will command her,
and others. She is 800 tons burden, 100 feet in
length and 80 feet beam, and will be used as a
general coaster. She is named the Maggie
Dalng." Her model was made bv Mr. Curtis
and she is being built under the supervision of
the captain, who was formerly on the Nellie
Chase. When completed it will be hard to
find finer looking vessel of her size. She is
built very strong, all of her timber being as
large as could be put into a schooner of her
size. She is single deck with poop, land will
carry full cargo dry. This will make her
very valuable for carrying certain kinds of
freights. She will be ready in about two weeks
Lift 'efeld Bros. are making stern moulding
for her.

THE BURGLARS AGAIN.-Yesterday morning
the house of General Fessenden, on tn, corner
of State and DeerIng Streets was entered, bat
just as the burglars gained an entrance the
General was aroused by their noise, and start
ed after them with revolver in one hand and
a watchman's whistle in the other. He made
a noise and before he could get to then they
ran. He tried to fire after them but his revolt
yer missed fire, and he blew his whistle in
hope of arousing policeman. The neighbors
rushed in and the house was thoroughly
searched, but no clue to the burglars could be
found. The rascals evidently gained an en-
trance by window, and then opened the back
door and passed through the hall to the front
door, which they unlocked and opened wide. So
as to have good chance to escape.
The neighbors now suddenly remember that
they have seen man hanging around the
house for some time

AN INTERESTING CAsE.--The Municipal
Court room was filled with select crowd yes
terday morning. There were the usual number
OF 'drunks' and seizures to dispose of, and
then came the Ease of Haskell and Martin, ac-
cused of robbing Mr.. Snow last Saturday.
rbe City Solicitor conducted the prosecution,
while Haskell was defended by Col. Bradbury.
From the opening of the case by the prosecu-
ton, it was very evident that the prisoners had
robbed the man together and tnen divided the
spoil, Haskell taking the coat and dollar. and
Martin the watch. But of course the Colonel
couldn't for a moment think that Haskell
would do thing so wicked, so he put him on
the stand and he testified that he saw Martin
90 behind the pile of lumber with Snow, and
that he went around that way and met Martin
with the coat and some money, and that Mar
tin gave him the coat, and he took it and offered
it for sale After telling his story the City
Solicitor began to cross-examine him. Then
the fun began. Haskell could not tell why he
took the coat when Martin gave it to him, or
anything else in regard to the affair." Among
The questions asked him was whether 1t was
he wickedness of his heart the rum that he
had drank, that made him take the coat and
money when offered to him by Martini" This
was too much for the young man, and those
who were wat ching closely could see slight
smile pass over his hitherto calm countenance
This question was followed by several more
of the same sort, and all remained unan-
swered.
Martin then took the stand and acknowledged
his guilt and implicated Haskell IN the case.
The Colonel then arose and told the little
story of Haskell's innocence, but the story was
So thin that the attorney had all he could do to
keep his face straight while telling it. The
Judge looked SOBER and taking the warrant
wrote, probable cause, S5OO0," and handed it
to the Recorder, who Informed the prisoners
that the court had found probable cause and
that they m st recognize in the sum of $4,000.
Messrs. Haskell and Maltin will board with
Mr.. Pencil until fall when they will be taken
in carriages to the court room.

Judge Donahue has gran ed an Injunction
against the Society for the Reformation of
Juvenile Deluquents, restraining them from
collecting ON theatrical managers the license
fees winch by the act of the l.: glslature of 1872
they were authorized to collect. Tue theatres
after paying these Licenses for some time fual v

Society for the Reformation of Juvenile De-
linquents is admitted to be, although having
public duty to perform.
