ganization and are carrying arms and in
timidating people after dark. Two lads
of fourteen years are now under arrest for
| shooting GARDINER Grothe, in an attempt
to ROB him of his money box, and it is

the same stripe are setting the fires. The
police force in that ward has been doubled,
| and tower watch has been instituted by
| the fire chief. Chief of Police Wason to-
day received letter threatening him with
assassination and adding that the town
will be burned if work is not soon fur

now idle. Mayor Stowell has been be.
sought of late By innumerable applicants,

of some idiot. The local underwriters

conviction OF the incendiaries, and Mayor
