"A correspondent of the New York Iri-
bune complains that the newsboys at Havre
de Grace do not sell that paper on the trains
Whereupon the editor promises to look into
the matter, and adds that 1T is not possible
that the officers of the train will intentional
ly permit such discrimination" 1t would
be hard on the newsboys to compel them to
keep on hand copies of paper which very
few people want, now that is in the hands
and conducted in the interests of Jay Gould
! About two weeks ago some one entered
the dwelling of S. H. Montague, at Fallston,
after the family had retired, but being over
heard escaped before Mr.. Montague could
get down stairs. A few nights afterwards an
attempt was also TO enter the house of The
| odOre Moore near Fallst1n hut q window
being raised, the person left preciptately.-
The object in both instances was doubtless
robbery. The citizens of the neighborhood
say they are all ready now to give such in
truGers a warm if not welcome recep-
ton.
