A spirit of enterprise seems to have animat-
ed our druggists of late. The store Of VIM. O..
Poor Il Son, always attractive, has been rem
dered more so by the addition of new mahogany
and walnut drawers, beautifully lettered in
gold by Sanborn. The most attractive feature
of the whole i a case of toilet articles. The
case, a new one, has large oval front of plate
glass with heavy nickel frame. 1t is the most
elaborate article of the kind in this city. The
MeSsrS Poor have always occupied leading
position among the druggists Of the state, and
they evidently mean to retain it,
The agent Of the Sargent 4 Greenleat's chro-
nometer bank lock, which saved the Great Bar
rington Bank from robbery, was recently in
This city, exhibiting the lock TO the officers OF
the Savings Bank. The peculiar safety of this
invention consists in the fact that the bolt is
held by clock work within the vault and that
until the regular hour Of business arrives, no
person, not even the cashier, can open the
vault. 1t Is hoped that the Savings Bank will
adopt this invention. Watchmen are liable to

turned and anchored i'll the harbor. The cap

asleep. ON awakening he discovered that hi

City Marshal was notified and search institut
ed. Six O'Clock in the evening he was discoy
cred leaving the Sanford wharf in a row boat
rowing directly out OF the harbor. The Mar
shal and Captain Immediately followed, bu
were distanced by the pursued. Al this iunc
ture six volunteers started in pursuit will
Frank Folletfs row boat, with the runawa'
some three miles in advance. Now came tn
exciting race The latter boat with four stou
rowers quickly lessened the distance, and RAJ
along side and captured the man about tw
miles off Patterson Point. He was bfongh
back and lodged in Jail. The matter was hXe'
up Wednesday before coming to the Judge
