BIG BOSTON BURGLARIZED.
Bold Cracksmen Make a Successful

Bold Cracksmen Make a Successful
Haui without Discovery.
On Sunday evening about 6 O'Clock the
wood wol king room of the Fourth avenue
carriage shop was entered by burglars and
One-half, three-quarters and One-inch bits
were stolen. Before the burglars could Sc
cure more tools they were frightened away
by Mr.. CrOnk. an employe of the place,
who had come to the shop for the daily pa
per- Mr. Cronk says one man stood on the
corner and watched while the other got
the tools. The watcher was about five
feet eight inches high and wore dark
clothes with a gray neckerchief. Iester-
day morning it was discovered that the
Big Boston clothing store. corner OF Sec
Ond avenue south and Washington, had
been entered during the night, the safe
broken open and valuable lot OF goods
taken. The burglars evidently knew well
the lay of the land. They bored through
the side door leading to the second floor,
and removed the catch of the lock: then
they plugged the hole with piece of
cork, and. fastening the door be-
hind them, went upstairs to the
second story. The Big Boston people are
putting in an elevator, and had parttiOned
off the well-hOle for it with common cell
ing Their workmen had left heavy rope
hanging from the top of the well-hOle to
the cellar, and the burglars slid down the
rope to the first floor and effected an Ell
trance to the store by boring through three
of the ceiling boards and removing the
lower portions. They opened the safe by
drilling through both doors and breaking
the bars. All the papers in the safe were
carefully examined. but were left. The
cash, however, was i'll itself a sufficient re-
ward TOr the cracksmen. The cashier
refused to state the amount of money
taken, saying they got enough to keep
them in beer and eggs all winter 1t was
learned from other reliable sources, how
ever. that nearly 81. 600 in cash was taken.
The burglars then turned their attention to
the stock, and showed Their acquaintance
with the store by taking only the best seal
goods and mutflerS-abOut $500 worth.
Nothing else was disturbed. Thus far the
police have gained no clue.

Uuitarians and the Socialists.

Yesterday evening the Scandinavian
UnitarianS had Their regular weekly debat-
ing meeting at the church of Rev. Kristo-
pher Janson. The subject for debate was,
Socialism, Necessity for Human Pro-
gress." The audience was large and SEEM
ingly interested in the subject. Ats o'clock
sharp Evert Nymanoyer, the Scandinavian
socialist leader, arrived, and was elected
chairman of the meeting. A lively disus-
sion ensued, in which Rev. JansOn, Mr.
Greenager. OfStie, NymanOver and some
Others took part. Rev. Janson said he
had been induced by the lecture
of DR.. and Mrs. Averling to sympathize
with the movement of socialism, lie had,
however. doubts still as to the practicable
ity Of some of the ideas advocated by So
clalIsts. Greenmayer. who introduced the
subject, was pronounced socialist, and he
saw no reason why socialism could not or
ought not be what it desires to be to man
kind and the progress of man. Mr.. iNyman-
over gave historical view OF socialism
proper. touching upon the Bible as the
Holy Writ OF labor. and said that the first
and most important thing to be done now
is to organize US into political party. The
various labor organizations must consolidate
into great and united labor party. Then
they propose to introduce practically
the changes desirable in regard to
property and the means of production
He finished by paying tribute to Rev. Krist
Janson and his congregation for the liberal
and friendly stand it had taken on the
question. Next Monday evening another
subject for debate will be on the pro-
gramme, touching, however, socialism in
the legal department. 1t will be Re
solved, That Society Does Justice in Con-
vlcting the Criminal" There were students
from the university present, and the audi
ence was very intelligent one.

Tue residence of L. c. Farmer, 800 Fifth

SATURDAY
THE LEGISLATURE.

The Legislative Assembly yesterday
disposed of a variety OF business essen
tial to completing the work Of the ses-
sion, prior to propagation to-day. Among
the measures finally passed was the In
demnity bill, covering SCI ,843 II Of I'M
authorized expenditure during the pre-
vious fiscal period This bin should
have become law early in the session,
thereby relieving the Executive from
source OF unnecessary anxiety and
trouble. It is to be hoped that there
will be no necessity Tor another Indem-
nifty bill in the coming session of the
Legislative Assembly, and indeed there
should be none, as the provision made
by the Appropriation Act is sufficiently
liberal for all conceivable purposes Of
government.
His Excellency Mr.. Gibson reported
twenty-seven bills approved by His
Majesty the King, and two vetoed bills.
This makes the approved Acts so far
number sixty-four, and there are several
more to come, not to speak OF ''lost
bills" that is, bills which the Secretary
cannot account for, they having passed
out of his custody without a record Of
their destination having been kept. 1t
will be seen therefore that the session
has been fruitful OF a great deal OF new
legislation, most of which is OF a useful
character. OF the bills which received
the Royal assent the Currency, Loan
and Appropriation Acts are the most i'm
portant, considered in their bearing upon
national interests.
The Opium License bill was not re
ported approved, and we hope Ministers
will advise His Majesty to veto it. In
its present shape it is unsatisfactory to
every industrial interest of the country,
and can only benefit a class who are
always ready to violate the law if they
have a chance of doing SO with impunity
and making money at the same time
The moral responsibility rests with the
Administration, and as the Premier
voted against the bill steadily he should
oppose its approval. A four years
license is to be granted by the King in
Cabinet Council EFto some one. applying
therefor, " and this fact alone should i'm
pei men of honorable Instincts, serving
as Ministers, to shrink from the respOn-
sibility OF advising the King to approve
a bill which would place them in such a
questionable light before the public.
To license and regulate the opium traffic,
bringing it absolutely under police con
troll, is one thing; but to license it in the
interest ofsunscrupulous spectators, for
eign and domestic, without bringing it
under police supervision, is a wholly
different affair. The last is precisely
what the bill passed by the Legislature
does. and what it was evidently intended
to accomplish. The Ministry can frus-
trate the contamination of this scheme

THE SILVER QUESTION.

The 'silyer question" is one OF the ut
most importance to the producing classes
all over the world, and although it is
usual for the banking interests to declare
that there is too much silver in circula-
ton, it is fact nevertheless that silver
is the metal that does nearly all the
worlds work Even in goId-standard
England the bulk OF the wage earning
classes are paid in subsidiary silver coin.
or token money. while the circulation in
Scotland and ireland, as it is in all the
Colonies, is nearly exclusively bank
notes ranging from & so upwards.
secured on a relatively small reserve OF
coin The industrious classes hardly
ever see the color Of gold, although it Is
the metal which fixes the value of all
they eat, wear or produce. Under these
conditions it is easy enough to see how
the comparatively small class who con
troll credits can enrich themselves at the
expense Of the industrious classes. who
are dependent upon credit to carry out
their operations The profits OF industry.
therefore, are not harvested by those
engaged in it, but by those who stand as
Intermediates between producers and
consumers. Their operations are simpli-
fed and their profits increased 10y estab-

The marriage was solempized at
slough. near Windsor, in England, on
the 10TH October. 1886, day which in
after wears was destined to be marked by
several eyentful episodes in the lives OF
the happy couple. Thus on the 18th
October, 1913, Mr.. and Mrs. Brown left
England in the ship Admiral Moorsom,
under Captain Ten Eyke, and after a
six months passage round Cape Horn,
they arrived in these Islands early in
the following year and proceeded at
once to Kauai, where Mr.. Brown en-
tered upon the pursuit Of stock raising.
In this he continued until the year 1852,
and again on the 18th October, he, with
his respected wife and the members OF
their family, sailed in the ship Charles
Mallory Tor the United States. The
voyage was an unauspicious one, for
while off the coast OF Pernambuco the
vessel went ashore, passing through the
outer reef and being stranded on the in
uar. Although no lives were lost, a GER
